Stickied Spanish Football

Barcelona-based newspaper feels the need to photoshop out Ronaldo's six-pack from a photo...

Haha, the Spanish media love a bit of photoshopping. This classic from Marca will always be my favourite.

I wish this picture of Messi was photoshopped, he seems to be going through some sort of early mid life crisis. But he does pull of the bleach blonde hair better than Phil Jones tbf.

Justin Bieber in ten years.

 

[Benji]

Aaron Ramsey trend setter.

 

[SALTIRE]

He suits it tbf.

Barca now added 7 his transfer window. Got to fancy them again for la liga.

 

[GodsGift]

Putting your neck on the line there.

got to fancy them winning it comfortably I should have added.

 

[SALTIRE]

So Real and Atletico are banned for two transfer windows then. It'll hurt Atletico more than Real I suppose.

 

[Super_horns]

Another advantage to Barca?

Real must've had a good idea that this was coming which makes it all the more illogical that they chose to spend relatively little during this window.

Yeah, and keeping what they have and bringing back Morata will do them for the ban duration. The ban for Atletico could prevent them from maintaining a challenge however which isn't great.

They'll still finish 2nd and challenge for the CL. It doesn't change the face of the earth.

Barca getting beat so far at home to Alaves. No Messi, Suarez or Iniesta, they can't be being rested for Celtic surely!

 

[Super_horns]

Got it back to 1-1 now....

 

[mistermagic]

1-2 now.

 

[Benji]

Alaves have defended so well. Aside from the goal, Barcelona have hardly had a decent chance on goal.

 

[The Iron]

Oh dear Barca

Of course. After seeing Celtic's 5-1 win against the Rangers they were worried about the game next week and decided to rest Messi, Suarez and Iniesta
But even with all 3 and 30 minutes left to equalize they couldn't do it.

btw: Is Messi's beard glued?

 

[SALTIRE]

They were shocking tonight, no spark about them whatsoever. Alaves played the game perfectly however, fair play to them.

 

[mistermagic]

Histerical.

 

[mistermagic]

Anyone else watching Barca/Atletico?

 

[mistermagic]

1-0 to Barca. Rakitic from an Iniesta cross. Barca had not so many chances to open the scoring. Not over as Atletico have looked good on the counter.

 

[SALTIRE]

I'm watching it and it was such an un-Barca like goal, cross in, header, job done. Atletico themselves would be proud of that. Should be a good second half now there's a goal.

 

[SALTIRE]

1 - 1 now and Messi off with injury.

 

[SALTIRE]

Real Madrid draw 1 - 1 today, but Barca is having an even worse day currently 4 - 2 down against bogey side Celta Vigo. You know you're having a bad day when Iago Aspas scores against you!

 

[The Iron]

They're just an average team without Messi

 

[Super_horns]

So much for the big 2 having it easy...

 

[SALTIRE]

The keeper had a howler for Celtas fourth goal hitting it right off one of their players and it bouncing back into the goal . Finished 4 - 3 and Barca would've drew had he just booted it up field!

No El Classico live on Sky as the game kicks off at 3pm on Saturday 3rd December which is when there is an agreement in this country for no live games to be shown..
