Ramzi said...: While its expected that it will be either Puyol or Yaya - specially after the "Goal.com" usual rating mess, I will definitely Vote for henry. he was the only player on the pitch who played a perfect game, who play football know that his goal was not as easy as it seems to be on TV, played assists, dominated defenders (and there is a chance that he wanted to earn that yellow for the right back to make him more careful when defend-he did it before with arsenal for those who remember, the card hurt the defender more than the forward, and we saw why at the end of the game, though it was more a favor for RM)if Eto'o switched positions with him more often last night things would have been easier, I thing the new left flank he is taking -wide enough but not so wide starting to click better than last season hugging the line, credit Pep.

Puyol was great, he found a path on the right and ran throw it he made lot of effort but he wasn't the man to decide the game, yaya made mistakes in the midfield (he is the one responsible of the goal, not the youngster who failed to cover the mistake because he was physically contained by a more fit player-striker- and who had the ball to decide the trick to make).yet,I always demanded that yaya move forward requesting the ball and not to swallow the ball and run to the edge of the box (AFTER HE GUARANTEE A MAN TO COVER BEHIND HIM) something Gudi did in this game, he did it between minute 20 and 31 and made an impact to push the game higher and cause threat, and he capped that by the goal that is not a surprise the way he scored it, some skills and lot of strength produce that. again, it only work when he move without the ball and receive it on the edge of box or inside, not dribbling from the back forward. he also need to shoot when he can, I screamed SHOOT at least once in the first half. the way he jumped to celebrate was funny, but I thing you cant ask a tank to celebrate like a butterfly.

By the way Gudjhonsen again played a very good game but again unfairly judged, but nothing new about it its an infection already.

Soon Valdes will come back from his vacation and things will get better...; 04 January, 2009

why doesnt bojan get play time its unfair that a bad player like victor sanches get to play but our own bojan who had a greath game against Colombia with the catalonian nationalteam gets to play time; 04 January, 2009
Anonymous said...: Anonymous, I wouldn't wanna put Bojan as a center back. Bojan doesn't play as much because we don't lack players in his position.

Toure was responsible for the goal, and I really hope he stops losing the ball like that. A defensive midfielder must be extra careful. Anyway, Toure's revenge was really great.; 04 January, 2009
Anonymous said...: Toure deserves it. Came back strong after that mistake in the first goal. Is playing at a very high level for weeks now.; 04 January, 2009
Anonymous said...: Marquez played a very SOLID game... Loved his preformance agianst mallorca!... all his sliding tackles...; 04 January, 2009
Anonymous said...: How can you say Henry had "a perfect game"?

The goal was very nice, I agree, but he lost a million balls, especially in the first half. Sure, he stole a few balls, but not more than anyone else, and I don't know what you mean with "played assists", he passed some balls deep by chance, almost everyone ended up in the keepers arms.

I voted for Marquez btw, very solid, and got to take even more resposibility with Sanchez beside him. If Sanchez would've played with someone else beside him, I'm afraid we would've lost the game before half time.; 04 January, 2009
Anonymous said...: toure was excellent this game
he showed the class that he had for most of last year that earned him a spot
i hope he will continue to play like this

i also thought hleb was good
completely different style from the rest of the team
but great footskills, if he got more involved in the game im sure he would be more noticeable, but he was good from what i saw; 04 January, 2009
memo said...: Toure was ok at best. his goal at the end (which didnt matter) just cancelled out his stupid mistake that cost us an early goal. stupid giveaway by "the best" DM in the world. very average player. And while Sanchez didnt really play well, he gets blamed for Toures mistake on this one.

Toure might recover possesion a lot from other teams and he gets praised for it by most of you, but he continuously makes stupid turnovers on our side of the pitch. And agaisnt Mallorca he didnt have a solid deffender to save his ass.; 05 January, 2009
Anonymous said...: did any of you even think about giving andres some well deserved praise
to me he was the best on the pitch
was in the right place at the right time and created havoc in his minutes on the pitch
and for all the others insulting toure
(very avrage!!!)
teams would kill to have him in there midfield or would you rather have iniesta as dm.
cut the guy some slack , after one mistake wich he even atones for he gets bombarded by some of you.
thats the stuff that made ronaldinho leave.; 05 January, 2009
