The best of the Betfair football forum
Was Barcelona's performance against Real Madrid last night the best in the history of club football? Was Jose Mourinho culpable for the emphatic defeat? Here's what the Betfair football forum made of the Clasico, and the BBC's potentially World Cup bid-jeopardising episode of Panorama...
"One of the biggest, if not the biggest footballing night of Jose's life... Let's be honest, what a mare he had. Barca played one of the best 90 minutes I've ever seen, probably the best. That performance was probably letting the frustration out from last season but Jose sat slumped like a limp d*** and watched the game pass them by. Rabbit in headlights stuff which is shocking as its Jose Mourinho." - Winner Winner Chicken Diner
"You will see just how special Mourinho is when Real Madrid win the league against the best team on the planet. And they will win the league ([2.4]). He is the only man who could do this. That's why he is The Special One." - the lay preacher
"Time to appreciate Johan Cruyff. He turned Barcelona into the biggest club in the world - and they still play Cruyff's football today. Although there are some dimensions to FC Barca that an English team will never have, it is not too fanciful to imagine that when he left Ajax, Cruyff might have come to Manchester United or Arsenal, and changed the course of club football." - unitedbiscuits
"Only one team in the world could currently beat Barcelona over two legs - that is Manchester United. An in-form United are absolutely brilliant no matter what anyone says. I'm lumping on that for the Champions League Final ([13.5])." - Unique19
"I can't understand the BBC, who I have loved and admired for almost 50 years now. Are they naive or stupid or insulting the collective intelligence of the country to have us not know that only harm can come to our bid due to this deliberate timing? Why not air EXACTLY the same programme NEXT Monday after the decision has been made? If anyone hears bad things about themselves (however valid) it's not going to endear them to be on the side of the person(s) making those adverse comments! Deliberate sabotage and why would they do this? I genuinely don't know." - Spirit Of My Weigh
