Kyle: I’m up for watching some Barca matches at Dark Horse, but I can’t make it for the Valencia match. Maybe next week against the EE?

sorry Isaiah, my name proabalby masks this, but im Mexican, so i wouldnt mind vela joining the squad! gio leaving was sad :’-(

worry not, there wont be any americans in Barca anytime soon. (unless this FCB Miami works out, and we can steal really young ones and give them some proper training)

I actually root for both teams, (Mexico, and U.S.)unless they play eachother, then it’s all Mexico. but both teams are rather un-impressive as of late. Mexico has an excuse though; Eriksson is our Manager! He kept insitsing on the Gio-Vela tandem when it was blatantly clear that they dont have the experience to play with eachother at the senior level. He should have paired Gio with an older striker (Bravo?) or Vela with an older forward (Blanco, Bautista?). Eriksson is crap!

Anyways… im pretty sure everyone else cares very little for the U.S. / Mexico rivalry.

But Carlos Vela is Mexican. I can only stand so many archrivals on my club team. I get so much shit from my friends (who are Mexican) for Rafa Marquez being blaugrana while we’re watching USA-Mexico and I’m dissing their team.

Forget Benzema, while we’re getting Cesc, lets see if we can get Wenger to part ways with Carlos Vela. He’s better than Bojan i.m.o.

Colin: I too live in Philly and was hoping to find a Barca bar/pub to catch matches. I have really only gone to the Dark Horse to watch EPL matches and a handful of Barca matches, but it’s pretty empty when Barca are playing. Any interest in hitting up a pub on Saturday to catch the Valencia match. I initially planned to watch it at the Dark Horse, but I’m open to suggestions.

cesc wont come in summer due to being the arsenal captain now. he said he wants to stay. also i think if benzema comes it will only be because eto’o will leave. i dont think we will have both.

on other sites its as if eto’o has already said he is leaving and people are talking about how to replace him.

EE said they arent going for benxzema because of hunterlaar now so we have a good shot at him. personally i prefer eto’o.

on a side note, i am off to buy my xbox (finally) and fifa 09, is anybody interested in playing online? maybe if we have enough players we could have a barca offside team. i know isaiah has fifa 09, so anyone else?

Boca also has unicef on their kits, its on the sleeves. so actually we are not the only club which does this.

Oh and if we can’t get Cesc, I vote that we do whatever we can to get Hamsik from Napoli. He is a phenomenal player, and would thrive with Toure, as he wouldn’t be getting the crap kicked out of him.
