    We're the last, we were losing 0-4 at home and 45,000 fans singing till the end. There's nobody in Spain like us and we we'll go away from the last positions. Next stop: the derby. Go go Betis!!!

    Messi out for 6-8 weeks. Femoral biceps tear, appears to be something they`ve been trying to manage for sometime. Probably explains why he`s been off the pace over the last few games.

    He needs a proper rest to let it heal, or it will happen again this season. Whether its Barcelonas decision or himself saying hes fit when hes not, he really does needs the time to heal

    He's been * since Guardiola left.

    I remember reading somewhere that there was some sort of fitness expert who was working exclusively with Messi during Guardiola's reign that left when Pep went to Bayern? I think it was either Guillem Balagué or Graham Hunter who said it.

    He was still fit and firing on all cylinders under Tito until he done his hamstring the first time, he hasn't been the same since then as he is always rushed back, not allowing it to properly heal.

    Let's hope, Dáibhí. It's a strange thing. We play well in the league and almost every weekend lost, we haven't played well in the EL except in Guimaraes and we lead our group. :87:

    Juanjo Brau, the team physiotherapist...He's still with the club at present but his contract hasn't been renewed...A lot of speculation that there was a falling out between Messi's camp & Brau but no one knows why, if true...But you can't really debate the results, Leo's best fitness has been under Pep & Brau...The club claims that Brau may be involved with Messi's recouperation from his latest injury as they look to try and find a longterm solution to these issues

    And Brau has been linked to a reunion with Pep in Bavaria

    Top 3 away matches I never look forward to...Another very permissive La Liga referee but well played by Betis

    An interesting possible signing, but I'm not convinced a midfielder is what we really need...

    I'll need to watch the game as well. :84: As much as I've never really liked Atletico I love watching them under Simeone.
