Vote for Barcelona!
By: Isaiah |I found this stupid poll via BigSoccer and while it is indeed a “silly thing” as was suggested on the forum, Barça might as well win, eh? I mean, if we can win the Copa del Rey, we might as well win this to go along with our league trophy. It’s obvious that the Dutch [...]
Statshots
By: Isaiah |Here are this week’s statshots.
You’ll note automatically that Barcelona are on top of this chart. And that’s where they should be. Honestly. Head-to-head? What is this, the NFL? Why do we even keep track of goal differential anymore? Good point, Isaiah. The thing is, that probably sounds bitter, or sour grape-ish, but really, I always [...]
Barcelona 1 – 0 Getafe: Review and Highlights
By: Isaiah |Well, Barca got revenge, at least in part. Still tied with Real Madrid on points, but trailing on head-to-head. The big story is, of course, Ronaldinho getting a red card late in the first half for kicking Belenguer square in the little guys. The red was deserved, I think, but there were such serious flaws [...]
Barcelona – Getafe: Venganza!
By: Isaiah |Revenge. It is a brutal word most of the time, even in sports. But now is not the time to be squeamish about such things as semantics. Now is the time for hard hearts and quick feet, the latter for scoring goals, not for running away. They beat us 4-0 at the Alfonso Perez to [...]
Madrid is Evil
By: Isaiah |Now, I know that no true cule can believe anything other than what is stated in the title of this post, but there are always those impartial doubters, those who just don’t know better. Now, this latest “proof” does come from Barcelona-based tabloid Sport, but at this point, why not accept anything that’s said about [...]
Rodrigo Palacio: Anakin Skywalker of world football
By: Isaiah |Look, I don’t care how good he supposedly is, if Rodrigo Palacio arrives at Camp Nou with that, that THING attached to his head I’ll…well I don’t know what I’ll do, but it won’t be pretty. Who does he think he is!?
Seriously.
A Short History of FC Barcelona
By: Clint |Més que un club
More than a club. It’s difficult to imagine this motto fitting any other team in the world as well as it does FC Barcelona. A Catalan sports club (though we know it from its football team) founded by a Swiss footballer while on a vacation to visit his uncle in Barcelona, the [...]
Barcelona Stats
By: Isaiah |Some quick tables, updated to reflect the weekend’s action:
Green = Champions League; Gray = UEFA Cup; Orange: relegation zone.
And now Barcelona’s individual stats:
Discussion of all this after the jump.
Atlético 0 – 6 Barcelona: “a professional humiliation” with highlights
By: Isaiah |Well. What a difference a week can make. All the naysayers who came out of the woodwork after Getafe and Real Betis can return to the aforementioned woodwork and stat. Not that this is a time to crow as Barça remain in second place after Real Madrid concluded another game with a goal in stoppage [...]
Atletico Madrid – Barcelona, Sunday 3pm EST
By: Isaiah |I haven’t been feeling the whole posting thing these last few days, but there is a little something going on Sunday at the Vicente Calderon and it’s called us kicking rojiblanco booty to the curb. For all his supposed sex appeal, Fernando Torres is still, in my mind, an incomplete player. Part of that might [...]
