Why start Milito at left back?

As opposed to who?

Why bring Ibra off but leave Keita on the field and then proceed to work the ball into wider areas and cross it into under 6ft players?

He has done nothing since February. A better question would have been why did he start with Zlatan in the first place.

Pep is a great manager but he shown a bit of inexperience in a really tough situation IMO. Ibra is struggling, no doubt, but he is still an undoubted threat, especially compared to Keita. I thought the starting formation was really strange, I couldn't understand why Milito was at left back, Pep realized after the break that it really wasn't working, but it was too late, Barca needed to score early if they were to have a chance, instead they tried to stroll their way into the game. They left too much to be done in the second half, the first half was really poor whilst it took them about half an hour to really go for it in the second.

Barça went at Inter from the whistle. Inter's first shot on goal was in the secon half. Inexperience? He hasn't had two full seasons yet. Of course he's going to show a bit of experience.
Most folk here are happy, yes happy, because Barça played football. I guarantee tomorrow's papers are full of praise for Barça for attempting to play football rather than going out of the competition. And as for Mourinho, is he trying to compensate for something... :SHHH:

A deliberate hand ball is a bookable offence (a sending off offence if the opposition are in the act of scoring). Is every handball a booking?


The incident in question was not handball it was ball to hand. If a player is laying prone injured on the edge of the box and an opposing player accidentally trips over him is it freekick?? I would say not, the same as the ball accidentally striking the hand??.....

Is there a more overrated player that Ibrahimovic? 46million Euro's plus Eto'o I bet Inter coulden't wait to get him on a plane and sign the deal!

one of those players who looks world class against lower/mid table league plodders, but goes missing in big games for both club and country.

Shocking comments about Barcelona from some on here.

Don't you know that everyone connected with them always help old ladies cross the road, and every time they see a kid on the street who looks a bit thin they taken them in and make sure they have a good meal?

It's why last weeks arduos trip to Milan took them 5 hours longer than it takes anyone else to drive it.

I'm sensing sarcasm there.

No dig at them having Unicef on their shirt?

Fifth place finish would not mean failure - Mancini http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/footbal ... 652108.stm

In some ways I agree. I don't think 4th should have been a target in the first place this season. But when a side sack a manager when the team is in 6th place because they team aren't in line for their targets, when the club say that their goal is a top 4 finish, then not finishing 4th is a clear failure.
