You are right. 9 points is a huge interval in the table. Barcelona are in very good form this season; they are in form where they can beat any team that they play with. Barcelona will not make any mistake to lose three matches and leave the space for Real Madrid, where as I’m still doubting if Real Madrid will be getting back and get the first position, because while they are in the process of restoring their performance, Barcelona will still be getting more points that will make it difficult for Real Madrid to catch up on the table.
I really do love he way Barcelona is going about this season, it shows they are ready for the champions and domestic league, tonight in the champions League, they are already leading but give goals and it still looks like they may add another before the end of the game, this has to be one of the season Barcelona has been in one of their best shape, the eas with which they rain goals is sometimes unimaginable as it is least expected sometimes, I could see it as Ben okay in their domestic league but in champions League it becomes something else, could it be they are aiming at the trophy?, after all Madrid isn't in the right form to fight currently.
