But's it's a scoop ! I used to think the Barcelona's substitutes used to press oranges for whose who plays at half time, my supposition hits a drag: there is no decent substitute bench (they can put a 13 year old on the bench, medias will speak about the marvelous Masia rather than the chronic unability to manage a whole squad with substitutes) and Barcelona's players can press like robots, and so 50 games a year with a little squad rotation

Something must go wrong in my reflexion.

When they have the ball - which represents 75% of the game - they are walking around. This isn't really tiring, is it ?

The complaints about the amount of Barcelona/Real Madrid players in the team of the year is ridiculous. Of course there will be lots of Barcelona/Real Madrid players because they are the two best teams in the world by a considerable distance.

Statistics beg to differ. In order to consider a team considerably better than the others they need to achieve something... Frankly, I don't remember the last time Real were in a CL final (2001?). Their recent achievements top with being runners-up to Barca in the league. They are a squad of outstanding individuals (as the FIFPro team proves).. but as a team, they're yet to prove themselves. However, with Mourinho being given time, I can see them tasting success again soon - I can't see him and Ronaldo being titelless for too long.

Because he was the best player in Copa América, it has nothing to do with PL. So yes, it was deserved.

There is football outside Europe and PL.

I still don't think he deserves to be in the top five players. There are plenty of other players who should be there before him.

Otherwise there was a TV documentary about Messi on the French TV (I did not watch it) but it was acted like a melancholic drama... Just pathetic

Maybe they have cloned them and have few extra Messi and Xavis. Short bench is going to cost them this season, they are already 5 points behind Real.
