Barca vs Legia (R)

[RhinosBoy21]

I wondered if anyone cared, so i Started this up. The match is tomorrow and Barca players already talking trash.

Phillip Cocu: We'll win 3-0.
Gaizka Mendieta: We'll not afriad of Legia

I doubt Legia will win, hopefully for Poland I hope they do. With so many players leaving i don't even think theres a chance. If Czeresewski and Mieciel stayed I think they would have a great chance of upseting Barca. But they also lost Piekarski, Karwan and Murawski.

Any thoughts?

[tredowski]

ah, I'm not feeling too confident about it either. We really don't have that good of a chance really.
I think it would be really nice if Legia loses by one. And absolutely amazingly unbelievable if Legia wins.
But here's my prediction anyway: 2-0 Barca

[krzysiu-again!!]

that is true legia has so many players it's not funny....but i wreckon we'll lose 4-1

[pluspol]

3-1 to Barca

[RhinosBoy21]

1-1. I really feel it. I think they will upset them. They can beat them at home, they just need a draw on the away and a goal.

[krzysiu-again!!]

draw away??AHAHAHAHA man i hope ur right.......

hehe. I thought it was over! 90th minute, you know. So I thought 2-0 was going to be the final score.
Too bad. My prediction would have been right.

Barça and Legia are poles apart

Coach Louis van Gaal said FC Barcelona "can do better" after watching the Spanish challengers ease to a comprehensive 3-0 victory against Polish champions Legia Warszawa at Camp Nou...

what's with the pun in the article title?
damn uefa.com writers. I bet they think they're funny.
Its not even a good pun!

[pluspol]

ahhh... Poland must be a headline writer's dream.

What is there? "pole position", "poles apart", "pole vault"...

Though my favourite has to be "Jan Tomaszewski - the Clown who Pole-axed England."
