Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ What a match. Keita has been fantastic this season. He deserved all three goals he scored. We typically don't score that many headers, so its nice to see someone other than Messi score them (Mr Ferdinand are you there?). I have to say that Ibra has put to rest all doubts, he is a scoring machine right now. Messi needed that goal there, so I'm happy he got it. Also it looks like Iniesta is back dribbling and driving at defenses, I'm probably even happier to see that. On we go, alone at the top of the league as of now.
Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ Great game. Exactly what was needed to get back on the winning track. Hard to pick out any negatives to the game. Chygrynsky hasn't played in awhile, so you have to give him some leeway. Iniesta and Keita had a great understanding and seemed to be switching positions a lot. I wonder if you couldn't just start Keita in Henry's slot and Iniesta in midfield. Maxwell played solidly -- I haven't noticed any significant flaws in his game. Also, as Robbie Mustoe mentioned on the ESPN broadcast -- the game was great to watch because the camera was zoomed out so you could see the whole Barca formation (especially when they were kicking it around the back line). I wish every game was shown that way.
Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ I can never find fault with Piqué. And I don't agree about Txigy. He just came back after a month off injured - I think he was being "careful", more than "slow". Thought he played well, kept his position, passed nicely.
Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ Keita = god! What a crushing victory.
Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ isn't Chygrynskiy just came back from injury? He is been solid in pervious games so I'm not worried.

Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ Amazing game. And a nice way to cap off a long weekend, watching Barca in HD on the DVR. Ain't technology something?
Re: J8 Liga BBVA | FC Barcelona v Real Zaragoza | 25 October 09 | Pre/During/Post Match Discussion [ I'm super late on this, but I just want to add how impressive the team was. Not sure what Zaragoza's talent level is like, but the sure as hell did capitalize. Keita was everywhere man. I'm sure their keeper woke up in cold sweats that night with 1,000 Seydou's coming at him from all angles in his nightmares.
