Congratulations to Barca on their first ever cup title, but would Bryn have traded the trophy for a full strength side for the rest of the season? It's a bittersweet victory as it might just have cost them the Elite title. A good game for the neutrals, plenty of drama, the underdogs taking an early lead, Barca taking control, then the red cards making for a nervous finish. I wonder what would have happened if Shaun had done a Malky at 1-0 up.

Unlucky Shaun and well done Bryn, hope that win will cost you the Elite title and give more hope for the next two week, losing one main player in each position sure will affect your team for the last two matches

Well played Shaun! It was a closely contested final and you gave as good as you got. Unlucky not to have come out winners. Definitely would have preferred to have Tabata available for the next two league games rather than winning this cup! Hunt is not that important, so could manage fine with Pele and RVN. This could be our biggest downfall this season.

Congratulations Barcelona, Wonderful and Exciting Cup Final (done a Malky at 1-0 up) nice to see i have my own tactic named after me
Yes this may come at a cost but at least it wasnt RVN thats suspended, he could only find a slot on the bench for the final.
Barcelona knew there would be a risk playing there aggressive way but im sure Bryn knew those risks when setting up his teamsheet! unlucky FC Porto, maybe should have done a malky

Congratulations Bryn, shame about the suspensions but I'm sure you'll still manage to win the title.

I think the performance points clearly show how Tabata will be missed.
Pos Name Games P.Pts ----------------------------------------------- 1 R_Tabata (brc) 30 45991 2 Pele (brc) 30 37208 3 M_Essien (brc) 28 34025 4 K_Jensen (brc) 30 30900 5 A_Pele (irm) 19 30023 6 R_v_Nistelroy (brc) 29 29585 7 R_Kopa (brc) 30 28990 8 Preety (rmd) 30 27545 9 Xavi (bnm) 31 25861 10 C_Arrache (rmd) 31 25137

Cheers Gazza! We never measured up to Bayern, Real and Santos in the past. I think we may have one more good season, but then we lose Tabata and Essien.

This could be our biggest downfall this season. was a great game mate, glad we gave you a good game as defo got the squad to have humiliated us if we got our tactics wrong as for the Malky's tactic at 1-0 up........ possibly something I should have considered rather than my usual wait till later in the game before going that way. on the other hand I didn't fancy getting battered all game if they went A v D with the strikers they have. Got to be very happy to have made it to the final in the first place and delighted to have given a good account of ourselves. Congrats Bryn, well deserved mate
