Gruntled..doh study it. Breaking down Real lead was always going to be a choppy process. I never get a tief head wid dat 2 points. Just remember it was 9 points not too long ago. So five is good..De only thing that sour meh is Real Madrid first goal was offside by a mile. But say what..Barca get two tief goal to beat Zaragoza a few weeks ago. Cyah complain. Atletico is always a tough team for Barca..At the Nou camp Barca beat them 3-0 earlier this season, so except for the strange 6-0 spanking Barca hit dem last season (on de road to boot), splitting the two games with Atletico is a vast improvement over years past when Barca couldn't beat them home or away. Barca still put out a strong team against Atleti but Rijkaard had to rake a calculated risk with Messi. De youth injury prone and Barca have 4 games in less than 2 weeks that will make or break the season. He absolutely cannot fu** up against Celtic..cuz season done if they mess dat one up. Dey go make Rijkaard walk de plank if dey throw dat away. Also, the only ting Rijkaard hasn't won with Barca is the Copa Del Rey. I feel he taking that Valencia semi 2nd leg real serious. Then you have Villarreal (bogey team #2) at home in La Liga. Cannot afford to drop points at home. Is 4 games back to back that will define Barca season...If I had to rest Messi for one, it would probably be the Atleti game in truth. Not sure why Yaya didn't play
