@ Pittsey
no you thought that they did when i argued that Liverpool got alot of bad decisions against them in 08/09
but now that its Barcelona and Manchester United in the debate involved you change your view.
as i said already, Barcelona dont really get many favourable decisions. That Chelsea game was blown way out of proportion. If you analyse the game propery and are not bitter Jose Mourinho or a retarded Chelsea supporter then you can see that the decisions given over the 2 legs of that game balanced each other out pretty much but its just that the bitter rent boys cant get over the fact that they threw away another big game that should have been closed out and ignore the fact that if Ballack stood up and closed down Iniesta's shot like a man, then we wouldnt even be talking about it now. In fact, we'd probably be discussing how Manchester United won their 4th European Cup after Chelsea bottled it yet again in the final.
ok, so Barcelona get so much favouritism, explain how Liverpool put them out in 07 then? and Manchester UNited in 08?
i remember Inter knocking them out last year or did i imagine that? Mourinho's anti football Inter Milan team, who apart from having Thiago Motta sent off for little, got pretty much every decison including an offside goal and a goal for Barcelona wrongly disallowed which would have put them into the final.
I never remember Guardiola complaining about that and thats probably the reason no one talks about those incidents. Thats because Guardiola has class and dignity. He didnt complain either that his team had to take a bus from Barcelona to Milan to play the fist leg of that game. No, he took his beating and just got on with it. Contrast that with the bitter nasty cunt that is Jose Mourinho. The same man who caused a top referee to retire. Perhaps thats why some refs might want to give nothing to him and Chelsea in europe? (Anders Frisk incident), The same man that coached that disgraceful Porto team against Celtic in Seville. It was like watching the diving championships. The same man that ran down the sidelines after Porto knocked Manchester United in 2004? Being a Liverpool fan i was happy with the result but lets not ignore that Scholes had a perfectly good goal disallowed. What about that decision? or the one to send off Andrade in their next game against Deportivo? (the semi final). Now there was a shocking decision which stopped a fine Deportivo side, that i really admired, winning the European Cup. We never heard about those decision in his rant last week.
