It's impossible to have only 2,3 draws and 1 loss in such a long season.
Yeah, it's been pathetic. What do they have...3 draws? That's terrible, even with the injuries they have. They still have way superior players. I was honestly expecting them to have maybe 2-3 draws the entire season, 0 or 1 loss (vs. RMAO), and win out the rest. I've been quite surprised.

Didn't you remember having watched your first game in the 1990 WC? How can you remember that team?
That Sacchi's team ('87/'91) has 8 les:
-87/88 Serie A
-88/89 and 89/90 Champions League
-89 and 90 European Supercup
-88 Italian Supercup
-89 and 90 Club's WC

Guardiola's Barca 'till now ('08/'11 [giving one year of advantage to Sacchi's Milan]) has 12 les:
-08/09, 09/10 and 10/11 Spanish league
-08/09 and 10/11 Champions league
-09 and 11 European Supercup
-08/09, 09/10 and 10/11 Spanish Supercup
-09 Club's WC (they still have to play this year's edition)
-08/09 Spanish Cup (Copa del Rey)

Of course anyone can think whatever they want but to laugh at the mention of this Barca team as the best ever or to say team "X" would "wipe the floor with them" is at the very least a very controversial opinion.
OK I exaggerated a little..this team is so much stronger than other years with the additions they've made + Thiago growing into a solid player. During the past 2 Liga seasons they've had 6 draws each year, only 1 loss in 09/10, and 2 last season. You would only expect them to improve since they've added so many players that they can have some of the best midfielders and wingers/forwards in the world throughout the week, barring injuries of course, which they are struggling with. Apparently Pedro is out now too for 2-3 weeks with a sprained ankle.
You have to consider the physical and mental exhaustation of having won all those years in a row (the more you win, the more you play in a season). I think this is the season were Madrid finally dethrones Barca, at least in the Spanish league.
Q: The mutual hate that Barcelona and Real Madrid have for each other transcends anything I’ve seen in American sports. Is there a rivalry in American sports anywhere near as impassioned as the one between these two teams?

Sports Guy Simmons: Not right now. Our most recent example was probably the Red Wings and Avalanche during the Claude Lemieux era: That one had bench-clearing brawls, goalie fights, sucker punches, retribution fights and everything else you’d ever want from hockey.
Baseball doesn’t have anything like it; basketball doesn’t allow teams to act on any bad blood; and in football, rivalries like Ravens-Steelers, Patriots-Jets and Giants-Eagles lack the intensity/hatred/meaning because they don’t play each other enough. Here’s how I would describe Barca-Madrid: Imagine if the Mets and Yankees were the two best baseball teams by far, if they measured themselves only by each other, if they played six to eight series every year, and if they had many of the best players in the world. Then imagine if baseball was the only sport that anyone cared about in America, imagine if they were throwing at each other almost every game, and imagine if the players hated each other as much as the fans did. That’s Barca-Madrid.
And on top of that, Barca plays soccer at a higher level than any American sports team does anything AND it has the best athlete in the world (Messi, who’s the closest thing to a sports genius that we’ve had since Michael Jordan). Wednesday’s Barca-Madrid bloodbath featured 90 minutes of high drama, an incredible winning give-and-go goal by Messi in the final minutes to win it for Barca, then a last-minute, scissor-kick cheap shot by Madrid’s Marcelo on pricey Barca addition Fabregas that nearly started a full-scale brawl. You couldn’t have asked for more from a two-hour sporting event. If you enjoy the World Cup every four years, you willreally enjoy every Barca-Madrid game. It’s just a fact.
Crofl Levante still going.
Levante wins again 90th minute goal.
well i'm a football fan, i tried to watch/read/get informed about past eras too.
Me too, I have probably watched every video there is about Maradona but I still don't feel qualified to give an opinion about him and his importance as a football player. You need to watch entire football matches pretty regularly to get that kind of information IMO.
La Liga no longer a two team league.
lol
roster please
RMAO's blowing out teams like they're supposed to and here's Barca, coasting like the LYeah, it's been pathetic. What do they have...3 draws? That's terrible, even with the injuries they have.
