Stickied Spanish Football

Embarrassing and not a good advert for Spanish football, Barcelona are obviously superb but each goal was a minor catastrophe defensively. Obviously with 10 men it becomes a joke. Not interested in watching games like that, complete non-events and one of the reasons Spanish football can be tedious at times.

Come back to Sky Gary, for our sake and your own. Barcelona are just imperious, the two best players in the world at it again. I can't believe people think Aguero is as good as Suarez. As long as that trio remain together, I can't see anyone stopping Barcelona domestically or in Europe.

Hope he organises the England defence better!

I hope he doesn't...

"You see teams go to the Nou Camp and get beat 5, 6, 7-0. Barca are a good side, well they're a great side. But if I was involved with a team who got beat 7-0 there I wouldn't be able to look my family in the eyes anymore." Gary Neville 15/04/2015

Just seen Neymar's penalty

Fergie's kids just can't manage.

Not really a surprise, Fergie was a success because he's an assertive G and controlled his subservient players impeccably. Time these fools realise what they are. Subservient creatures can't manage.

He never looked like scoring it did he. For such a great player I dunno why he does it that way. Better giving Suarez the pens. Should've been 8 - 0

The Valencia fans are almost worse than the Real Madrid ones tbf, they are so deluded its untrue, however Valencia are absolutely cack this season so I can see why they are doing that.

I presume Sky left Neville's job open..

The comedy continues, the guy couldn't organise a piss up in a brewery.

Ouch

Another 7 - 0 tonight please Barca

I'll be christening my new internet connection by streaming this one - seven goals would do me just fine!

I'm not sure which channel my link is streaming from but it features THE WORST commentator I've ever heard. He sounds like a cross between Borat and a shit impressionist doing an impression of Mourinho.

He just described a shot that sailed over the bar as "going up the post".

Bein Sports?

Possibly, yeah. The streamer blanked out the channel logo.

I had the Hudson on for it last night but he wasn't his usual self. Only saw the first half anyway before I went to my scratcher. The Barca team was completely changed but I'd watch Sergi Roberto any day he is turning into a hell of a player.

Messi finally wins Player Of The Month, took him long enough, but I wonder why...

Blimey, even Ronaldo has won it more than once

So Messi and Ronaldo have only won it three times between them!?

Do they actively make sure that they give it to lesser known players or what?

Sevilla – Las Palmas

Sevilla will host one of outsiders Las Palmas in 24th game week of Spanish Primera division. Antalusia team failed in the beginning of the season but then become to play better.
Sevilla must gain 8 points to be on the 4th place in the league and these are quite possible to acvieve. Las Palmas takes much less attractive 18th place but the team hope to stay in Primera at the end of season. The bottom of the league table is very close and only one win let take higher place. Consequently, Las Palmas will play at full strength in every match to gain more points.
Antalusians are dominant at home because they won 12 matches in a row on own field including games against Real Madrid and Juventus. Las Palmas isn’t such successful team as Sevilla and Antalusians shouldn’t face with big problems in upcoming match. If characterize Sevilla’s style of play should be admited that attacking football of the team is really powerful: Sevilla prefers to attack on wings and creates lots of chances. Players make many shots and make crosses into penalty area. Headers are strong pros of Antalusians. Considering presence in the Sevilla’s squad really good player like Konoplyanka is expected that Las Palmas’s defenders may be passed quite often. Consequently, serves on wings are very dangerous.

Las Palmas try to play positioning football controlling the ball on own part of the pitch. Short serves and distant shots are part of Las Palmas playing style. For team is too hard to oppose teams what play actively on wings and in which squads are individually strong players, more powerful than Las Palmas’s defenders.

Let’s look at upcoming match according to bets on corners. I offer to look at bet on total over corners in this game. Total over 9,5 is for 1,73 odds at Bet365.

Players on avarage take 11,58 corner in Sevilla’s home matches. It is the best result among all teams of Primera. Hosts take on average 6,83 corners, almost 7. Total over 9,5 corners was covered in 11 of 12 home games of Antalusians. Las Palmas takes 4,82 corners, almost 5 during the game at away. Players of Las Palmas took 4 or more corners in last 6 games. Las Palmas played against Rayo, Levante, Atletico, Espanyol. Sporting and Valencia. These football clubs (exept Espanyol) let their opponents take as much corners during the game as Sevilla. Besides, Las Palmas’s total corners was over 9,5 4 times of last 5 games at away.

To sum up, we can see that the match for both sides is difficult: Sevilla will try to approach to Champions League, Las Palmas will try to take higher place of the league table. The game is going to be with many chances because both teams need points. And if consider teams’ corners stats, bet on total over 9,5 corners for 1,73 odds at Bet363 is very attractive.

Messi did this on the first attempt apparently (yeah right! ). Love the way he nonchalantly walks away at the end

Of course he did it on his first attempt. It's Messi!!!. The only surprise is that it didn't go in off the bar

Valencia are in a 6 pointer against Espanyol tonight. Is it going to only get worse for G Nev? I kind of want him to turn it around, but I really enjoy seeing how bad things can get in football.

Espanyol can be tricky bastards, hope they trounce him

Jesus, Valencia should be 1-0 down already. No idea how that stayed out.
