Rijkaard - "It's great to play against a team whose manager already knows everything," the Dutchman said. "Sometimes the people who say they know everything are those who know the least."
Asked how many videos of Liverpool he and his staff have watched in preparation for tonight's game, Rijkaard said: "Nothing much. I've not watched much of Liverpool because, with the style they have, quite physical and tactically disciplined, once you have seen a couple of their games you know how they play. Some people might be thinking Liverpool are already through. That takes the pressure off us and maybe they will find things more difficult in front of their own fans."
Messi - Barcelona starlet Leo Messi has slammed Liverpool as "ugly".
Ahead of tonight's clash at Anfield, the Argie declared: "The first leg was weird, even the goals they scored were weird.
"The problem we have is that most of our opponents play in an ugly way, waiting for us to leave gaps at the back, and then counter-attack us. It is an obstacle we are learning to try and overcome."
I say f*** Rijkaard, f*** Messi lets not get involved with these little mind games of theirs.
Messi talks too much for a kid, he talks too much for his own good maybe he should concentrate on his football rather than his words.
