I didn't know that MC had got Nastasic. A great bit of business. Curious to see who he'll push to the bench, though.
Just a word on Adebayor at Spurs, though. I really don't get how in demand he is. He's always great for half a season then seems to lose interest. It's the same wherever he goes. Interesting to see Spurs fans booing AVB after just three games in charge.

Yeah, I certainly didn't see it as any sign of a crisis, just one of those days (at least in the first half) against, as you say, a pretty stunning front line. And even then it could've all been very different, had Messi scored at the end when he had the chance. But Real deserved their win as much as Barca deserved theirs in the previous game.
