Maybe that growth hormone wasn't only growth hormone.

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.

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

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.
