Barcelona v Real Madrid

[Beach Hut]

Live on Sky tonight - should be entertaining to say the least.

Bring it on.

Looking forward to it.

Barca know they need a result after losing to Sevilla last weekend and going out to Liverpool in the week, and there would be no better time for them to get back on form than tonight, so I expect them to be even more fired-up than usual on such an occasion.

Madrid, of course, also went out of the Champions League in the week, and are having another disappointing season by their standards, so they'll have a point of their own to prove.

All set for a great game (which will probably be a dull 0-0 now).

Biggest game in the world, just can't see it being a good un tonight. Two teams in poor form, the only hope is Eto'o pays up front and shows Drogba who is the best African striker

On current form that would have to be Drogba then

What time's k/off?

I thought about getting tickets for this. Then saw the price

considering Eto'o has been out for about 6 months not really a contest

I'd still take Drogba if both were on top form.

did it a few years ago cost about £350 all in hotel, flights and tickets. The only time Barca have lost at the Camp Nou to Madrid in years and didn't even get to see Ronnie in action. So not the best trip. Did get to see a wall featuring Beckham, Zidane, Figo and Ronaldo which was probably the highlight!

Where is it?

Camp Nou.

Barcelona?

Drogba has been on fire this season, granted.

But look at Barca without Eto'o. 50 goals in his first two years there. Immense.

Then he won't be able to prove he's the best African striker for a while yet

Fair point, I suppose its a bit difficult to compare the two as I dont see footage of Eto'o playing as often as Drogba.

Was that December 2003?

I think Barca lost 2-1

Brilliant weekend
