Three defensive Midfielders for Real, expect an ugly game with a lot of fouls.

No Özil?

NO Ozil, Pepe as midfielder, so most defensive Real Madrid, and Puyol at the begining, lots of surprises!!

Can´t believe Pepe midfielder, jajajaja!!!!
Mourinho´s mistake, FC Barcelona with Xavi, Iniesta and Messi are gonna dance all over the time, Mou with Pepe wants to destroy this Barcelona midfielders, but the problem´s Pepe is a great deffender in the back!!

We will see, Mouriho did that before, remember Barca vs. Inter in last years Champions League.

Vamossssss!

Clasico!

Great result there Carlitos. And for me at Wembley yesterday when my team Man City beat Man Utd, at last to reach the FA Cup Final.

Well done Man.City beating Man.United.Let's hope we get 3 more realy good games between Real and Barca.in the next few weeks.

Great win and performance. Did you go Silver Dagger?

Who is that in the 3rd picture?

Uli Steilike and Bernd Schuster if I'm not mistaken. So, the photo would date from the early/mid 80s

DiStefano and Puskas in the first one.

Breitner, Camacho (?) and Cruyff in the second.

Yup, I was there. Scored a ticket for £80 a few hours before. Still recovering as I write this. We've finally paid Utd back for all those last minute goals they scored against us last season.

Mourino strategy sucks!! well the scored, but don´t you think Real Madrid have incredible player to plya better?

Real looked like the better team.

..as they should be, on their home ground with 80,000 of their own supporters backing them.

The league table suggests otherwise, though.

Yeah; now we've got it ...

Saw the game on Saturday on Laola TV; I think Barca was playing at 50%; in my opinion Barca matches or tops the great teams in soccer history like Uruguay in the twenties and in '30, Ungarn in '54, Brazil in '58, Real in the fifties and sixties, FC Santos in the sixties, Germany in '72, the Netherlands in '74, Spain at present ... (only examples) ... Looking forward to Wednesday and the Cup final ...

Gazza, you are wrong
First picture are Distefano (RM) and Kubala (Barça)

Starting the match with 8 points difference and only six matches pending till the end of the Championship, both Barça and Madrid, already knew that Barça is 2010-2011 la liga champion.
Real Madrid has focus the season in their 10th Champions League, so last saturday match and probably next wenesday Copa final are only test for the semifinals against Barça.
No wins in this season in the "white house", after spending thousands millions euros in the last seasons, will be terrible for them, awful, Mou sure out, some palyers out,..... even in today's spanish press, you may read than Mou's sons are again booked in the old Lugano school, so Mou will be back in Milan next season.
First step 1-1, not bad. Second step on wenesday, I bet a Barça win and I'm visiting London end of May for Clapton-Winwood concert on Royal Albert Hall on 26th and Wembley Champions League final, with barça and....

Thanks. I wondered about that. Figured it was one or the other. Looked a bit like Puskas, but wondered if it was too thin to be him.
As they seemed to be wearing similar training gear, I guessed it was Puskas.

What's this compared to Man C - Man U and City won?

Hi Gazza again.
Probably you were mistaken, because they were wearing same clothes cuase both played for Spain.
After URSS invasion of Hungary in the 50's, Puskas was the only hungarian football player from the great Honved who played with Real Madrid. In Barça luckely we got Kubala, Kocsis and Czibor.
Czibor' son is a well known reputated photographer for a sport newspaper in Barcelona

Love that era. Great players indeed.

My wife and I spent our 23rd anniversary at the Camp Nou last October. Just the two of us and 79,000 of our closest friends.

dont know what is better: the goal or the speaker...;-)
