Getafe president Torres: Barcelona now becoming boring
Getafe president Angel Torres says fans are getting bored with Barcelona's style of football.
For many, Barca are the most entertaining team on the planet, but others find the tiki-taka style a drag.
"Barcelona play from memory, and continue to do so even after five years, but there are many people who will start to get bored [of their football]," said Torres.
"It is true that their cycle is going well, and they have made fools out of [Real] Madrid, but I think this is the year when Madrid begin to displace them."

Barca's style on the pitch is beautiful. Off the pitch it is repulsive. This is why they will fall. Hint, if you brag about ripping other clubs off, NO ONE WILL SELL TO YOU! I look forward to monumental collapse staring this season or the next.
Bar play good football but not a moutwatering one per say.
I honestly find Barca boring to watch. I couldn't tell you how many times i've fallen asleep watching Barca play. It's just 90 minutes of watching them pass to each other, and them having 99.99% possession in every match. I would rather watch 2 mediocre teams (for example Swansea vs Wigan) then watch a full Barca match because then you'd at least see 2 teams going at it back and forth.
I'm sure it's fantastic for Barca and their fans but for some neutrals it's just so ***** boring, and I can't wait for Barca's cycle to end, so we can stop with this Barca wankfest in the world.
