andres , i am not currently in the states but i live in baltimore city.

we need a LB and a CB(apart frm garay). heinze sucks. canna is getting quite long in the tooth ,pepe is really inconsistent and do i need to say nething about metzelder ?? the defense is increasingly reminiscent of the post-makelele and pre-capello era. the dark ages. it has always been our achilles heel but thats no excuse for the defense playing like sunday league amateurs.

and the way things are going i think tevez is gonna be available in the summer window. why would ManU spend 30 million quid on a player who is gonna be third choice striker??

Barca beats Malaga 4-1 playing Waterpolo. They put 3 on you and you barely scrape by with non-existent penalty, At home! Now we destroy Valladolid 6-0. Lets see what you can do.

From a neutral perspective: You have a good offense with van goal and the emerging Higuain. But your defense sucks when you have Heinze in the back and only Gago and Guti playing defense in the midfield. And your coach cares too much about himself. Honestly you guys have more talent than he is bringing out.

Can’t wait for the classico. Maybe this time we can put 4 on you, and youguys can score one.

Heinze is amazingly bad, almost like a throwback to the days when our backline was Helguera & Pavon. Schuster and co. had better send him packing.

i would have liked it if bueno had gotten some match time. but seeing as ruud is out for about a month i think he stands a good chance of getting some oppurtunities.

same thing for drenthe. the next 6 weeks while glassboy is out are gonna be make or break for him.

i don’t think the red card was a good call. in my opinion it was accidental.not like zizou’s stamp in the ‘98 wc.

the defense sucked bigtime. we have to terminate garay’s loan if we can and bring him back. i really don’t trust heinze. our best player in defense was salgado.

where in maryland , andres ?? baltimore ??

arrghhhhhhhh…. how did VDV miss that? He could’ve won the game for Real. Guti stole the ball in Real’s half and started another counter.

the only downside to that goal is I dunno if it’s a penalty It looks like a dive to me. A soft penalty at the very best.
