Lionel Messi's 202 Goals For Barcelona In 12 Minutes - originally posted on Soccerlens.com

All of Messi's 202 goals scored for Barcelona (2005-2011), in a simple, no-frills video. After the constant adulation, it is still ridiculous how good is really is.

Of course, when you're playing with the likes of Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Henry and Iniesta, it gets a bit easier.

This is not the first time Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola is defending himself against claims of forcing out players he dislikes. After taking over from Frank Rijkaard in 2008, Guardiola made it very clear that Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Deco would no longer be part of his plans as coach of the Catalans.

Wesley Sneijder has today confirmed that he was close to joining Manchester United this summer.

"I had felt that a move was close, yes," Sneijder said to Dutch newspaper AD. "There were talks on several occasions. The situation was that Inter had to sell a player Eto'o or me. There was interest, but due to a combination of things, it didn't happen.

The Eto'o mega deal has put Anzhi Makhachkala on the map, but what sort of reception will he get?

Sky Italia has nailed the preseason advertising market with some holy commercials designed to highlight the miracle that is calcio. Or miracle that it, despite the constant shitstorm, still stands as a structure.

Ambrosini, Mauri, Eto'o and a Totti statue in one, while Andrea Pirlo dons stripes (or trades a red for a white) for the first time in the other.

Every summer, there seem to be more and more quality players offloaded from the big spending clubs. As these big money clubs are constantly trying to make a splash in the transfer market, some really good players are often pushed out the door. I think this is happening more often now than ever, due to clubs like Man City, Chelsea, and the Spanish giants.

Today I am prostituting myself and as the title would suggest, I am appealing to the Asian Market for my "Hits". Now that I am a record breaking AA Poster, I would like to move swiftly on to today's topic. Total Football and The Wenger Way. At this point, I am about to drop a bomb on some heads, and would therefore urge the likes of TA to "Tin Hat Up".

L'anno scorso, in un post del 19 aprile dal titolo "L'Inter ha l'antidoto contro il Barça", scrissi che la squadra guidata da Mou, avrebbe potuto avere la meglio contro i blaugrana in champions league. L'Inter superò le semifinali e poi contro un Bayern Monaco chirurgicamente privato di Ribery, ebbe vita facile per alzare il trofeo più importante che mancava sulla sponda nerazzurra da 45 anni.

Over the last day or two, I have been alluding to the latest of my brilliant ideas. The beauty about this one is that I have unearthed not only the cause of our troubles but also the solution. The other day Mike talked about Eto on RA's excellent post about Wengerball, and between them, I thought they were going to steal my thunder.

Schalke completed a memorable victory at Inter Milan, twice coming from behind en route to a comprehensive win that leaves them on the verge of a place in the Champions League semi-finals for the first time.

An end to end match got off to a remarkable start as Milito raced on to a fine through ball by Esteban Cambiasso only to be denied by Manuel Neuer, who showed great presence of mind to race out of his area and head away.

Inter Milan vs Schalke 2011 San Siro, Milan- Champions League QF First Leg- 5/4/11- 5 April 2011 Final score:- Inter Milan vs Schalke 2-5 ( Stankovic, Milito/ Matip, Edu*2, Raul Gonzalez, Ranocchia own goal) Dejan Stankovic's brilliant opening goal for Inter goes in vain as Schalke stage a great triumph under new coach Ralf Rangnick [.

Just another day in calcio- schedule changes, loving coaches, and new ideas.

1.Inter are so impressed with Leonardo that general manager Ernesto Paolillo believes he will be at the club for a long time to come:

Leonardo will be the Coach of the future. He came to us for a long-term project and we want to introduce more young players.

Gazzetta dello Sport Inter, you're unique Epic game at Munich: comeback and triumph. The Nerazzurri are through to the Quarter-Finals Mou calls Moratti to congratulate him. Editorial: Samuel, Lion of Italy Kaka to Milan: Here's why it's possible Abidal shock: Liver tumour will be operated on Corriere dello Sport Fairytale Inter Eto'o.

After Milan's and Roma's eliminations from Europe's top flight competition, the peninsula looks solely to the nerazzurri to fly the Italian flag. The club finds itself in the same position as its crosstown rivals did against the Spurs, going into the second leg with a 1-0 home loss to overcome.

Bayern Munich will not be an easy opponent if this past weekend is any indication, as they thumped Hamburger SV 6-0 at home.

Adesso non ci sono più dubbi: Giampaolo Pazzini è dell'Inter. L'ex attaccante di Sampdoria e Fiorentina è il nuovo grande colpo di mercato del patron Moratti e la nuova freccia all'arco gi decisamente fornito (Milito, Eto'o, Pandev) del tecnico brasiliano Leonardo. Il "Pazzo" arriva in cambio di 12 milioni, versati nelle casse del club blucerchiato, [.
