lol Belgian Liverpool fan .... anyway back to topic

I think Barcelona are overated. If they are going to be the best team in game. Then they should be best in the world. They didnt accomplish anything last season. so why are they best. They had an off day when Liverpool knocked em out of champions league??? They had an off day when evilla eat em in the league??? nah they are just not the best. AC Milan and Real Madrid and Man United should be better. They actually won something. They accomplished something

and i will think u will find man united have let in more than 4 goals in all comps this season, there defence is gd but in the game evra is lighting, im sorry but he isnt as fast as they make out
Agreed on Evra, then again he could be fast, but we don't see his pace much because United already have good wing players...

On Ronaldhino, I think his stats are accurate enough, but its the Barca team overall that are slightly exaggerated. Correct me if I'm wrong, but when the game was indeed made last summer, they still weren't that good, they hadn't won much!

ok ok ok this needs to stop. you guys need to hop off barca. because if they were as bad as you guys make them out to be they wouldnt be were they are now.

as for CRISTIANO RONALDO.. dude he is the most over rated player and the biggest sore loser and cry baby AND.. DIVER the world has ever seen. PLEASE WATCH A BARCALONA game and tell me how many times the other team dives and fakes being hurt and then how many times barca does it ( none ) its acually pritty funny. and messi will be the best in the world, hes young hasnt won trophys yet but i bet on anything he will be the best. its all over soccer news and thy wouldnt say it if it wasnt true.!

...and how much of this "speculation" is relevant to the FIFA 08 game??

When someone says Ronaldo is better than Messi in here, its their opinion, yet you sound like the biggest cry baby yourself trying to correct them!! Grow some balls will ya!!

Lol you are quite funny because you are saying that he is overrated but all you just said about it was that he is a diver and bla bla bla...get a life dude..from what i am seing you are a true Barca fan who is jellous about how good the guy is...not his or anyones fault that barca are doing bad in the league...
and this is coming from a Arsenal FanDD
Personally i hate Ronaldo for diving and more...but what you are saying doesnt have anything to do about how good he is in the game and how good he is right now...
he is leading the Goalleaderboard in england,with Adebayor soon going passt himD
so i dont think you have the right to talk rubbish about him..how many goals have messi done for barca?

Well I am a Milan fan beacuse some of the greatest times in my life so far were with my grandfather watching them play (we still do.) I do enjoy using Palermo and spanking Barca fans. I don't really care what team they use since Miccoli + Amauri = win. Imo people complain too much about Barca or whatever other overrated team.

i hope you understand that was complete sarcasm on my part....hence that last line where i said messi hasnt won s**t



as for the OP....come on man, ronaldo overrated? he has scored something like 23 goals in his last 20 games, averaging more than a goal a game for a few months is a remarkable acheivement considering the league he is in.



messi & every other barca player dive & cry like little babies. you must not watch barca very often because even ronaldinho is starting to cry. imagine how much they would cry if they played in the premiership...what would happen when they come up against a player like robbie savage?


ronaldo has also taken the diving out of his game, he is total class & on top of the world right now. i dont think he should be increased, i think he is rated fairly well.




as for the "messi WILL be the best"....that doesnt mean anything. i can also say that Cesc will be the best. his team is actually in first place right now too & he hasnt been hurt 1/2 the season either

Balasco - I'd love to get your opinion on Ronaldo if he ever joined Barcelona - wouldn't be such a diving cry-baby then would he?! But of course not...

You present yourself as a spoilt yet jealous fan-boy; jealous because Ronaldo isn't part the exaggerated Barca dream-team that it already is, and also because he's one of the few players in the game that has the ability and skill to turn your Barcelona inside out!

a bit off topic, but last night, playing 5v5. lost 1 guy at kick off. his friend left around 20 mins. lost the 3 guy at half. me & some other guy keep playing as blackburn v barca. go up 2-0, end up going into extra time from an 88th min equalizer.


scored a cracker in the 109th with an amazing volley & guys were ****s & skipped the replay even after we asked nicely.

they end up equalizing in the 118th through some lala button delay that had my keeper head the ball to eto in the box.....they all start talking lala..... finished them off in the 120th with a McCarthy finish after passing around them.....f'in brilliant....haha

lovin it.

What ticks me of is when you play with a well known team in 5v5, you get glory boys locking on to the star strikers in the team. Fair enough if they pass and play etc., but more often that not, you'll get those who get on the ball, try tricks, run, try again, dribble some more, and simply won't pass to anyone, looking for glory himself.

So the way I deal with this (when and if it goes to that extent only) is by not passing to them at all and playing around the defensive lines, building my attacking move up slowly and getting some of the unlocked player making runs. Besides, its better to be commanding the defense and most of the midfield anyway. And even better, if I'm the captain of the team and again the same carry on continues, I sub the locked player off!!

i only play 5v5 with players on my friends list. i cant just go into a random lobby & play with people or i get frustrated. i need to play with players who can pass or i would rather just play 1v1 by myself.

its funny when people try to pick barca & youre a team like boca or something...its not ranked, whats the big deal about picking an equal team?

wow thats a good 1. barca doesnt like cry babies so no body would like him. any way. blah blah blah whos the best, if you want to talk about that, we shall. and i watch every barca game no body takes dives! they play extremely fair. and hey idiot ronaldino doesnt cry he laughs at the ref because the only way for people to stop either messi or ronaldihno is to foul them. its sooo funny

i didnt say messi is the best in the world, i said he will be. or top 10 ( which he is) but.... ronaldihno isnt as good as he was anymore but the bottom line is ronaldihno was the best there ever was. its not an opinion its a fact. stats dont meen anything its how the player plays and how well he plays with the team. JUST GO TO YOUTUBE AND TYPE RONALDIHNO AND BE AMAZED.

ALSO GOOD SO YOU HAVE ADMITED THAT MAN UNT can match barcalona so they are just as unfair as barca? thank you no you all can stop crying WHEN BARCA FANS PICK THERE OWN TEAM because you can just face them with man unt. no? thank you and goodnight

You get amazed too easily yourself for what you see on you tube and hear in the soccer-news reports...

Your opinion on how fair Barcelona plays means nothing to anyone - we all have our own opinions. Yet you present your opinion as factual and the only one that counts? ...idiot!

Its fair to say Man Utd, Inter and the likes of all other 5-star teams are a par below Barca because Barca are 6-star when you compare their stats. I believe EA have already acknowledged something along these lines with respect to Barca, so consider that factual if you may; it was them afterall who made the game.

I don't understand this bit at all - where did I admit or hint that "MAN UNT can match barcalona so they are just as unfair as barca?" You don't speak or understand English very well do you? ...sleep tight by the way.

Just saw that too!! If anyone is posting "mindless rubbish" and contradicting themselves left right and centre, its this Balasco8 kid.

I know of 2 other users who did the same (and much more!!) in these forums before and have never resurfaced since ...oh the shame!!

ok if he is one of the players that can turn them inside out i guess its not " cheating" to pick my own team ( barca) right? because you say that ronaldo can turn them " inside out" as in they can beat them ? or beter yet i think that meens they can blow them out?? hahaha ok

...that makes absolutely no sense whatsoever - it sounds 1 player better than 1 team??

And tell us, who are you quoting "cheating" back to? I don't see it used by anyone in the most recent posts in this thread, bar the thread title which you created yourself?! ...just go back to bed young lad.

ok i say cheating because everyone refers to barca as cheating if u choose them. and you also said that cristiano can turn barcalona inside out so u did say that 1 man can beat a whole team. if im not mistaken
