They need to get some new defenders, I can't believe how Union got three goals past them/

 

[Genius.]

I cant wait for the 14th of December for Barca to get some revenge.

 

[SuPaStA]

Over both games union got 6 goals past them!

 

[Stickfigure]

Quite something especially with Cannavaro and Ramos. I reckon Marcelo is going to become a top class defender.

Messi just scored a hat trick against Atletico Madrid.

Barcelona 3 - 1 Atletico Madrid

 

[SuPaStA]

What an amazing display by messi, the man is unstoppable!

Messi 3 - Ateltico Madrid 1

19 goals in 21 games for him now and its only half the season!

 

[jammio]

the third goal was awesome, taking keeper with left foot, half chipping past the defender with the right.. outstanding

 

[SuPaStA]

His one of those players you will never get tired of watching play, every game he gives an amazing performance.

 

[Genius.]

Watching Messi play and comparing to Ronaldo of last season. Was there ever any doubt who was the better player?

Barca 1 - 1 Atletico
