Barcelona is just putting on a show tonight, watching them pass just makes me wish the US was decent at soccer. We don't have a single player that can hold possession of the ball or pass like any of these players on Barca's side right now.

Not here. RM is totally being outclassed. Now Madrid are reduced to fouling because they can't do jack against Barça offensively or defensively.

I wonder what excuses the Special One will come up with after this one.

Barça! Barça! Barça!

Pellegrini did better w/ lesser players than Mourinho has done with the world-class group out there today. Even the biggest Bleugrana supporters didn't expect this wide a defeat.

Guardiola just had a great gameplan and mindset for his squad against Mourinho, they just came out and just dominated possession and basically played keep away for the entire match and waited for Real to get frustrated and capitalized. Was just brilliant game plan and execution today

Amazing how this club match can make you forget your National teammates like that....ugly play from Ramos and then shoves Xavi, Messi and Puyol in the face when they tried to talk to him (call him out for his BS play)

Wanted Barca to pull one out somehow today (hate Real for Cristiano and Mourinho from his days at Inter) but in no way did I think we would see anything like this.

Now we just need the Cardinals to do this to the 9ers tonight and it will be a good day.

Messi is an Argy, I'd shove him in the face any day of the week :p

Barcelona, when on their game, are easily the best team in the world. No team, including Chelsea, could have beaten Barca tonight.

FORZA BARCA!
