  1. good game today, was very impressed by rochina thought he had some good runs down the right flank and he also had the assist for the first goal. there has been much tulk about tiago, munies, gai, jeffren etc. but i think we may have up to ten players that are ready for the first team, why sign players??????

  2. hi, i didnt see the game as i was at work, but its a good result coming from the barca kids, lets hope pep does take 1 or 2 of them to the 1st team.
