UEFA?

Listen I think we got robbed just as much as the next guy but the FACTS are that he's done precious little in the grans scheme of things when we needed inspiration. Yeah he got an assist but really the TRUE greats come up with the goods when the chips are down. Had he scored but one genuine goal or had his build up play been the danger that it is vs the minnows then you wouldn't be reading the cliches contained above.

Ok time to kill the 1,000lb elephant in the room. iBra is overrated crap. Relatively of course and he's still our best attacker atm. But EVERYTHING most think about him is true. He's violent, ill tempered, selfish and CANNOT BE DEPENDED UPON IN THE BIG GAMES. Most are seduced by the breathtaking displays against the minnows and the impressive goal haul (partially inflated with penalties earned by others)

But if we're TRUTHFUL we'd have to agree with his detractors. I'm in no way blaming him entirely for our loss but his dismal records in the crunchtime of European Competition speaks for itself. It can't always be someone or something else to blame.

Even worse is that we have structured our team to play to his strengths which serves as a turbine that drives the vicious cycle of mediocrity that screams last decade's Inter Milan.
We got defeated not by Messi's exploits alone but by an actual team (which is another issue).
iBra is NOTHING compared to Van Basten, Kaka $heva or ANY of our past legends

Now that's interesting

Ibrahimovic voices conspiracy claim and empathises with Mourinho after Camp Nou controversy

The infuriated Swede felt he should have been awarded a spot-kick during the clash versus Barcelona and claimed the game offered proof that Uefa wants the Blaugrana in the final

Zlatan Ibrahimovic claimed that AC Milan had been the victims of a Uefa conspiracy after Tuesday night's Champions League defeat by Barcelona and revealed he now understands why Jose Mourinho is always left so "upset" after his visits to Camp Nou.

The Swede was incensed by referee Bjorn Kuipers' decision to award the Blaugrana their second penalty of the evening after Rossoneri defender Alessandro Nesta had tangled in the area with Carles Puyol and Sergio Busquets, arguing that he should have had a spot-kick himself when he tumbled to the floor early in the second half after collliding with Dani Alves.

"How can he give a penalty like that?" Ibrahimovic told Mediaset. "If he gave that penalty, he should have given my penalty.

"The game is not about the man in green. It's a shame. I couldn't believe he called a penalty when the ball wasn't in play.

"It seems like Uefa wants a certain two teams in the Champions League final. Now I understand how Mourinho feels every time he comes to Camp Nou."

Meanwhile, Mourinho's spokesman, Eladio Parames, tweeted at the interval: "After those 45 minutes, we already know who is going to win the Champions League!!!"

couldn't help but notice that none of the pics are of your "champion" hoisting a CL trophy.

You are definitely one of those Trini's who goes crazy when he sees a "beats" on the field even though we're down 7-0 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Dru, take my advice, don't ever leave this forum! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) Your posts bring out the best in other members, that's for sure. And while I feel where you're coming from, and agree when it comes to Ibra and big matches (European nights, in particular), the fact remains we'd be third or even fourth in the league, were he not here.

And most of that has got to do with the insane and inhumane amount of injuries we had to live through this year!

I dislike Ibrahimović, always did and always will. But I see it differently. I think Ibrahimović could make it with Milan and could break his CL dry spell; but in big matches Milan's midfield-creativity problem becomes more evident, while Ibra cannot do what he does to teams like Chievo, Parma or Lecce - do it completely out of nothing and totally alone. I really think he needs the proper support to make it happen, and that's all. No curse, no blockade if you ask me.

Good eye... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

You are definitely not one of those Trinis that wear glasses!

If you say so...

I know for certain I have never backed a side who goes 7-0 down, and I'm definitely not one to go 'crazy' over 'beats' (tricks for those that don't know), especially if my team is not putting in a good performance overall and are loosing.

But feel free to keep making assumptions based on nothing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I only knew about Trini.

[acid911]

Who's Lara?

Ah nobody. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif) Just pretty much the best batsman in the last 50 years. Cricket, of course. Retired now. Brian Lara is the only man alive to score 400 runs in a single innings. And I'll be damned if I've ever seen a more aesthetically pleasing left-handed batsman. Pure joy and delight to watch. An absolute artist with the bat.

Oh okay. Trini is evident enough. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) But Dru said that he's from Trinidad when he signed up, I remember.
