Some coincidence how often there's always awful defending against Messi.

busquets pass to messi in the build up to the first goal deserves much more praise.

arsedocmd

another precision fk by messi.

TambourineMan

Barca vs Atletico should be good in the next round of fixtures. The gap could potentially close to 2 points.

arsedocmd

it's amazing isn't it? barca are unbeaten this season and still atletico are within catching distance. Diego Simeone deserves a Nobel award for something.

TambourineMan

It really is. He has done an amazing job with them. Having said that I'm not sure I'd be too happy with him at the helm here which is funny because I also don't want it at the helm of any of our main rivals. He will things but it'll be as boring as watching paint dry.

Claudius

No more boring than watching us getting spanked.
The one reason I would favor him is that he would overhaul the mindset and fitness, both of which have flagged under late-stage Wenger. Certainly much more than the allegedly preferred candidates.

Watching paint dry?

With that inferior level of talent, to be within spitting distance of Barcelona?

I'd die to watch that team as my team right now

BWoolley

Yeah absolutely...if Simeone ever mentioned that he had any interest in coming here, we should give him whatever he wants. He's been able to keep up that level with Atletico for many seasons now, unlike the modern 3 year manager.

The football really is that boring. Ours is too with the endless little triangles at the by line and back line.

Winning football doesn’t bore me

Messi. ..free kick. ..you know what next.

Claudius

Quit this game at half time. Wenger has dulled my appetite so. That free kick was delicious though

jones

Apparently Messi now leads La Liga in

Goals
Assists
Key passes (ball before assist)
Shots on goal
Dribblings completed
Chances created

Also his free kick vs Atletico means this is only the second time someone has converted frees in three consecutive games in Spanish football.. after Messi himself did it last year for the first time. Did it in true hat trick fashion too - one short top corner, one long and one below the wall 😆

arsedocmd

Ronaldo outscoring messi handily now. Balon d'or will be much closer than earlier imagined especially with Ronaldo locked on to up his game (goals) in the CL

Claudius

These two players. A treat. It’s not just the stats. It’s how beautifully they do it. Messi’s free kick against Atletico. Who stops that? Only the gods.

TambourineMan

Ronaldo has been magnificent in 2018.

Bold Tone

"... words not needed"

arsedocmd

Damn what a move just now by barca from the back to the front. Couldn't finish with a goal.
Barca play their best highlights football against athletic always I feel.
