Everyone has been talking about the success of the English teams in the Champions League this season with all four sides getting throuh to the quarter-finals while Spain and Italy both only have one representative. It reflects the way the Premiership is dominating football with its extra financial muscle and it looks as though Barcelona this season is the only realistic opponent to them.
Barcelona is a success story for club that still remains in the hands of the members – socios – and has not sold out to big money. If you look at the English teams in the draw the only one which hasn’t got a foreign owner is Arsenal and even they are partly owned by Americans. Barca make their money through a global base of fans who support the team for what they represent and not from money moguls from overseas.
The big question though is whether Barca are capable of stopping the English sides this season. Looking at sheer ability then the answer of course is yes because Barca have a side which can match any but let’s face it they are a long way off their best. Players are out of form and Messi is injured. It’s probably a good thing that they are playing a weaker side in the next round as at least this gives the team time to find its form for later in the season for the crunch matches.

barca is by far abetter team than manchester united.I Stoongly believe than manchester united is extremely overated.Barcelona is technically ahead by miles and can only be classed with attractive playing and technically sound teams such as the world most successfull club AC MILAN.I am expectinng barcelona to win by a two goal margin at old traford next week.
