Only 1 point behind Barca
Not to mention Atleti is only 3 points behind. And people called the clasico a friendly

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Tbh only one game remains where we can kind of expect Barca to drop points and thats away to Deportivo. We need them to drop 5 points due to their superior h2h and with our hideous away record i am not getting excited at all

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
knowing our players tendencies to choke it up, in these kind of moments leaves little to get excited about, but I believe in this team like I always do, so if the team wins all the games until the end,the only team to really worry about is atleti, barca will choke it up especially if atleti knocks them out.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Barca always fade late and start losing points because they severely overplay their starting 11... always been like this. Problem has been that we were too far behind in Mou's last year and Carlo kills his starting 11 just as much lol.
This time around, we're close enough. Just need to keep winning and I guarantee you Barca will drop more points.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
4 points could as well be 40 due to the odds of things that needs to happen. We need Barca to drop at least 5 points (a loss and a draw or two more losses) as Hala mentioned and Atleti to drop at least one match and we need to win the remainder of our matches.
Those are some incredible odds that I don't see happening. I mean, if it did then I don't think I would ever stop laughing but still, a real tall order.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Why 5 points? We split the games and we have a +4 GD advantage in La Liga. If we're tied, we win La Liga as long as our GD is better.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Nope. If both sides are level on points at the end of the season, Barça would win the title due to their head-to-head record this campaign.
Goal difference is fourth in deciding the winner.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Surprising Sports forgot about the head to head rule in Spain. It is what won our La Liga title in 07. Ironically, Barcelona also had a collapse during that season but things were quite different back then.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Ah so head-to-head GD is also considered... that's complete crap btw lol. I was in the US in 2007 and very very busy. So I wasn't exactly following footy that year (and the year after tbh). Zidane had retired and i needed to mourn anyhow.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
Barca v Valencia
Depor v Barca
Barca v Sporting
Betis v Barca
Barca v Espanyol
Granada v Barca
Wouldn't get my hope up yet, the only relatively hard match they have left is Depor away, the rest of the schedule looks beatable.
Also we have to get past Atletico first and it doesn't look like they're going to lose points, they're pretty consistent.

Espanyol is always pretty intense too since it's a derby...

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
That is another thing, Barcelona back in 2007 needed a victory against Espanyol to go on top of the table but Raul f-ing Tamudo, Espanyol legend and someone who should always be give a season ticket for life at Bernabeu scored twice in a 2-2 draw at the Camp Nou. That too was the penultimate game of the season.
History surely cannot repeat itself again.

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
always had a soft spot for espanyol since that game. would have been cruel, considering messi scored with his hand...its a tall order, we need all the stars to align just right. and with that defense, who knows....fingers crossed

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
If they keep playing messi at CF it will happen. He is an absolute disaster at that position. Crazy how he is so much better on the wing.

It was a deep wing play though. Like a sort of hybrid wide midfielder/deep lying playmaker role. It wasn't the usual inside forward stuff he has been doing since he was 17.

Shame he won't be the best anymore and he'll have to get used to that. Benzema is the current best dm in the world and mehssi not going to take that spot from him. Mehssi aint got the hustle of Kariminal DMzema. No chance.
Also, sports, you are rather optimistic. With our form all over the place, this thread a jinx, yo.

If Zizou wins the CL-La Liga double this year... already a Real Madrid coaching legend

The clasico has been a massive game changer. I still think that they will win it but this should not happen anyway

Re: Only 1 point behind Barca
We still need to play this Valencia team AND Villarreal at home. Also we have LaReal away just before the 2nd leg of the CL.
Our away form is horrendous, I just want anyone but Barca to win the league

We have not defeated Valencia at home for quite a long time.
I'm still not confident we can still bottle it.
