    Zubizarreta met him last week in secret. Although it was all over most of the Spanish sports pages. :smiley-laughing002:

    As for on the park. I cannot see Barcelona doing anything next week,very disjointed and struggling to break down teams. If ever they need a wonder display from Messi, then next week would be ideal.

    They play for CFC just to reach the EPL. No love for CFC as deluded fans think

    Singing against English repression in English. Hahahaha, always a good laugh
    Atletico Madrid will win nothing in the end. They don't use their chances, Levante and Malaga now.
    I think Barcelona has more chances to win this.

    If it's a 5 pm K.O does that mean sky will need to delay it till 5.15? remember theres a daft rule they can't show football live between 3pm-5pm on a saturday or something?

    So win or a draw means Atletico win it and Barca need to win to win La Liga on head to head ?

    Thought that only applied to Domestic League Football or what Sky Sports show.

    Is it BT Sport that have the FA Cup??

    I remember El Classico early in the season they cut into the game with 15 minutes played- maybe with the season over the rule doesn't apply? hope so anyway.

    But they only have to draw. An there the most solid team in Europe just now IMO. Being a nervy game but Barca could struggle to break them down.

    Aye Barca looked pretty timid against Elche to be honest. Messi looks totally off the boil, dunno whats wrong with him. Maybe what HP said - the looming tax case and having to pay 35 million euros?

    Dunno, would like Atletico to win but they might sit back too much and Barca can always get a goal and might sneak one when its too late for Atletico to come back. Or Atletico could come out all guns blazing but end up losing it defensively.

    Hopefully its a good match, remember everyone on here saying it would be the biggest game of the season (La Liga) and would decide it.
