[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes Barca played the same # of games

But Barca let the ball do the work so their runs - 
Like the overlapping run to the left that scored the first goal -
were effective.

pDA ‘s runs were chasing around a ball that they couldn’t catch
Then when they did have it and went long , Barca’s backs were on fresh legs

The only unusual thing about this game is that Barca style usually involves wearing down opposition legs
Early and scoring later - here they didn’t need to do that against a team that did not know what defensive shape should be 
And could not envision that overlap coming[/quote]

It's Barca, not envisioning the overlap and possession is the perfect example of American ignorance and arrogance in action. Kicking off deep was all time dumb and arrogant. We are light years behind what is coming in the next generation if that PDA team is an example of the best club team at 05 in the nation. [/quote]

Considering you have beaten this dead horse into the ground for the past several months now, just curious.   Does the one match a few months ago where Watford beat Liverpool mean that Watford is the "better" team?   Why not?   Is it possible that Liverpool will adjust and play better next time?  If not, why not?   Could Liverpool even possibly win the next match?  If not, why?   Doesn't it stand to reason that PDA, clearly being unprepared for the style and tactics played in the dead horse game, might get better in the next match.  If not, why not?

Let's remember these are kids teams playing, coaches weren't studying game film of opponents, breaking down styles and looking for weaknesses to exploit, on top of it being ONE match, and stop beating the poor, dead horse.  It's had enough.[/quote]

Are you seriously suggesting that PDA is Liverpool to Barca’s Watford?

That is the problem right there. Why wasn’t PDA better prepared to play Barca? Arrogance? Ignorance?[/quote]

You said yourself that the Spanish kids weren't as athletic.  I'll bet the American kids with better preparation and focus would have beaten them.  Prove me wrong.[/quote]

PDA got dragged. You are already proven wrong. PDA had time to prepare and lost badly. [/quote]
