It's all about the motivation tonight. Can they get out there as if it's a big game?

Is it just me or there much more ads here.... I've to scroll much more down on the left now, to see the news.

I don't like it, especialy now when 1/4 of my screen is girls/prostitutes from all over the world... Pep, you need to find a balance between ads and news/text.

Anything less than 3-0 wouldn't be good, i guess. Hope guys like Caceres, Sylvinho and maybe even pedro will start.

Ramzi said...

Pep Say: "It is not good when things like this happen," AFP quoted the Barça boss as saying in the pre-match press conference ahead of the Basel game.

"We will try to avoid these happening again."

Now you know why i like this guy from the start, he is so Ramzist :) (ok thats not a humble Comment I admit...

Regarding the game, I hope the players are not as carried away as the fans, I like how fans are cheering now and i prefer it when they over react positively than when they over react passively after any loss, but this is a game to be taken seriously, barcelona has all what they need to smash any team while Basel will be over motivated because they have a point to prove after the big loss which will help them to be less stressed (a 3-0 loss will sound good for them) early goal will seal the deal.

The selection I will like:

Pinto, Pique, Puyol, Caceres, Sylvinho, Busq, Víctor Sánchez, iniesta, Bojan, henry, hlep

Pep, the link to the chat room is old, need editing.

Ramzi said...

Note , Guardiola was talking about Messi spit.

pep said...

Hey, my midfield was right!!!

Three cantera boys there, which european club even comes close?! And then we have also Valdes, Puyol, Pique and Bojan. With Messi, Xavi and Pedro on the bench and Jorquera in the stands, this is insane!
