Fastest goal in CL history apparently. Against them too brilliant.
Ah, and commentary from Gerry 'I have a Barca/Messi tattoo' Armstrong... great.

You, should have been more focused.
Barca can't always get away with palying no natural CB. We can score more here.

Gerry Armstrong wants everyone sent off if they step in a 10 foot radius of a Barca player

Ridiculously biased, even when it's against other Spanish sides.

Thinking that can't be the quickest goal didn't Makaay & G.Silva score one quicker? (Useless commentators).

This is what I said when we were discussing this before the match. Cassano will not be useful to us when we don't have possesion for lengthy periods. Another midfielder would have been the wiser decision

Sep 13 2011, 08:27 PM
Wow. We can't keep the ball for more than 5 seconds. Cassano has been invisible defensively and his first touch has been poor on the few opportunities he's gotten.

I think he's a good commentator.. just not when he's doing Barca games.

I don't think I've heard him commentate outside them, maybe a few ROI games but bar that I can't remember many.

Oh, Cassano you're so bad. I've been saying this since pre-season and got ridiculed for it, waste of space. Yes, I know he scored against Lazio, but I just don't see him being good enough any more for the wage he's got and for no doubt the signings he prevented via this.

Cassano is just not good at this sort of game. It's simple really, he's not cr@p by anyt stretch of the imagination, but he wasn't going to be useful when we're barely seeing the ball
Everyone knew this, aside from Allegri apparently

He needs to get another midfielder in there pronto!

I'd have taken this scoreline a million times over if you offered it me before. My only concern is it just seems a matter of time before Barca get their 2nd, 3rd, 4th now. Cassano has been non-existant and we could really do with bringing possibly Aquilani in to add more to our midfield.
Not the worst performance as we are playing Barca in their back yard, lets be realistic here. I'd probably not be too pleased against any other side, bar maybe United with us like this.

han2503
Sep 13 2011, 08:37 PM
I'm not worried about ball possesion, but the pressing is none existant. That needs to be fixed. 2 strikers is a waste, as I predicted all along, what do you need 2 strikers for when you knew you wouldn't be in possesion for long periods of time?
I won't fault Cassano, I knew this would happen, he's wasted there and taking up a position that could help the midfield

Gotta sub Cassano. At least Pato runs back from time to time. Aquilani in. Coulda really used Ibra's hold up play.
I feel like everything you've seen from us has been purposeful, I expect another tactic in the second half.
