    Do anyone else got bored of the way Barcelona plays???

    Personally thinking, i got bored of Barcelona's stupid playing style.
    The way they play with making millions of stupid aimless passes in the centre field, not going anywhere, not letting the opponents play killing 3/4 of 90 minutes of play time, killing the enjoyment of watching football.
    I got bored of it.
    What do you think Guardiola? that you are a genious??
    Let me say what your teams play is.
    It is an headache for people who wants to see some football action.

    ^^^ what Johon said.

    I've seen almost every Barcelona game this season...and i must say I do not get bored. I might get frustrated watching at times...but when you watch how other teams plays, you realize how good Barcelona really is. Be happy, you may never see another team like this.

    todays game wasnt a good example of barcelonas capabilities

    they had already qualified so they just wanted to pass the ball around until the game was over

    I think they just play a frustrating style for the opponent. Guess that can sometimes mean its boring with lack of crazy plays all the time, but to me they're fun to watch

    Play to win, if the style that is working is boring, it is a problem with the sport not the team.

    no problem with the sport, they played a fun first leg but maybe the second was dry, so what? lets wait until Man Utd play Barca in the final to decide about the overall sport

    This guy had the over, for sure. I can understand his frustration, but what did they care if they scored 3-4 more goals?? They were content with drawing because they had such a large goal lead. Really not a good game to gauge their style of play.

    Are you just saying this after watching the 2nd Leg today? Of course it wasn't going to be very entertaining, they had a 5-1 agg lead and extended it to 6-1 before HT.

    Make sure you tune into Barca/Real...you'll get some beautiful futbol then. I'll also agree with a couple posters above that Barca plays the most beautiful futbol in the world and watching Messi is an honour every time he steps onto the pitch. Xavi gets overlooked, that's how good Messi is.

    Stupid, aimless passes? You do know they pass the ball, to keep possession, which frustrates the other team, leading them to lose their shape? Also, these short, quick passes mean they keep running into space, thus moving the ball forward. Also, when they move into such space, they drag the opponent out of their position, which gives a chance to the other Barcelona player to run into that space. They play "tiki-taka" football at it's finest.

    When a team clogs up the middle of the pitch, you will see Alves and Abidal making runs down the flanks on the right and left, and delivering crosses into the box.

    There are so many ways for this Barcelona team to attack, it's unreal. Then you have geniuses like Iniesta, Xavi and Messi playing for them, who do extraordinary stuff, like some great dribbling, perfect through balls etc. Absolute joy to watch.

    When you see a team like Barcelona, you can't help but applaud their style of play. Quick little passes, opening up play, through balls, stretching the game..whatever you want, this team will do. If you want to play at a fast pace, they will do so. And if they want, they can slow the game down to whatever pace they wish to.

    As for Guardiola, I'm not alone in thinking he's a genius. Bringing in so many youth players, making them play such fantastic football and actually winning trophies. If that's not a genius, then who is?

    Just be glad that you are able to watch this Barcelona team. It's going to be a while before we see another team like this, with such intricate passing and highly talented players.

    Yesterday was Guardiola's pragmatic approach to football.... but it was still watchable which you can't say of Madrid.

    Sometimes can be boring (never if you are Barça fan ) but there are some epic matchs. I think the best football game the Barça - Arsenal of the last champions league. It was a draw, but.. what an incredible 1st half...

    How the **** is it negative if they've scored more than 110 goals this season already? FFS, some people need their heads checked.

    Oh, and if Man Utd play Barcelona, they will be found out for the average team they are.

    Barcelona is the most beautiful team from this sport , at least since I am watching it. Messi will be the best player in the world after he retires. valuable opinion among this thread.

    honestly I'm tired of it (and please don't say that I'm biased I don't like either the way Madrid plays).

    I just prefer a more how to say, faster football! I really don't like when Barca has the ball for so long on the game and going nowhere!

    In fact I also didn't like when Spain did that on the WC. I was really hoping for a Germany win but they couldn't do it.

    But I admite at times Barca game is nice! Especially when they do it faster.
    But I think that also depends a lot of the team that is playing against! If the team finds the way to desperate Barca they'll start to play a little different! Little faster!

    In any case I know people will say I'm biassed
