Round Five Liga Round Up And Champions League Tickets

admin — Sun, 27 Sep 2009 10:24:49 +0000

Well it’s Sunday morning and the weekend’s big games are over – I didn’t see Real Madrid’s 3-0 victory over Tenerife but one of my merengue mates still isn’t really convinced about how Madrid play. Good result, though and they go top of the table on goal difference.

The Barça game in Malaga was pretty tough – Weligton looked like a man with a licence to kill! But Ibrahimovic came on for Henry and very quickly put FC Barcelona ahead – that’s 5 goals in his first five games. Historic!

Gerard Pique - FC Barcelona's Piquenbauer

The player that really impressed me though – he came on for Chygrynskiy and suddenly the Barcelona defence started to connect with midfield – Xavi in particular. Pique just gets better and better – and what’s more he even scored. The new Franz Beckenbauer – Piquenbauer.

The other two games were pretty tasty – Sevilla’s impressive 4-0 victory over Athletic Bilbao and a draw against Valencia was a good result for Atletico.

Looking forward to Tuesday with Barcelona v Dinamo Kiev in Camp Nou and Sevilla away to Rangers.

Wednesday sees FC Porto against Atletico de Madrid and Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu against Marseille.

Liga 2009-10 – Round Five – Fixtures

admin — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 09:47:25 +0000

Just a quick post today with the fixtures for this weekend’s games.

Here they are . . .

Valencia v Atletico and Athletic Bilbao v Sevilla are going to be the games to watch.

I reckon Atletico’s suffering is going to continue and Villa, Silva and Mata will make mincemeat of them, and I was a little disappointed that Athletic Bilbao only managed a draw on Wednesday – I liked the idea of the BIG THREE being back at the top of the table.

FC Barcelona have got an interesting game against an erratic Malaga – Iniesta could well start the game if Ibrahimovic is still injured.

But the highlight will be watching Real Madrid get stuffed by Tenerife again after all these years – it will bring back sweet memories of the Dream Team!!!!

FC Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid 5-2 Liga BBVA 2009-10

admin — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 08:13:17 +0000

Hot off the press! Barça’s fantastic performance against Atletico de Madrid at Camp Nou on Saturday.

1-0 Min 1: Ibrahimovic gets the blaugrana off the mark with a really classy goal. The poise and control necessary to put this one away is the mark of a truly great player.

2-0 Min 16: A work of art from Messi who was quite possibly offside but Who Cares? He seems to beat the defence and goalie without touching the ball.

3-0 Min 20: Dani Alves free kick goes in like a rocket – I’m surprised the post stayed standing.

4-0 Min 41: A great goal from Keita, which just goes to show that you don’t have to be one of the stars to join in the party with this Barça!

4-1 Min 45: Kun takes advantage of a mistake by Busquets to beat Valdés but Atletico still go into the half time break shell-shocked

4-2 Min 85: Forlán beats Valdés with a well-executed shot

5-2 Min 94: Messi just shows he’s the greatest player in the world by taking advantage of an Iniesta pass.

FC Barcelona’s first 40 minutes were just pure genius but the defence showed some weaknesses as soon as Barça had less possession. Still spectacular stuff which makes it well-worth getting FC Barcelona Tickets

Atletico, though, are really up against it, though – only 1 point from the first three games and a disappointing draw against Apoel Nicosia in the Champions League. They’ve got a great side and you can watch Kun, Forlan, Simao and Maxi at Vicente Calderon by buying Atletico de Madrid Tickets

FC Barcelona Anthem – El Cant del Barca

admin — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 20:53:06 +0000

What is that song that FC Barcelona play every after game at the Camp Nou?

Answer

The song is called El Himne or Cant del Barça and here’s the first verse in Catalan followed by the translation in English.

Tot el camp
es un clam
som la gent Blau Grana
Tan se val d’on venim
Si del sud o del nord
ara estem d’acord
estem d’acord
una bandera ens agermana.
Blau Grana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom
el sap tothom

Barça!, Barça!, Baaaarça!!!!

Jugadors
Seguidors
tots unit fem força
son molts d’anys plens d’afanys
son molts gols que hem cridat
i s’ha demostrat
s’ha demostrat
que mai ningú no ens podrà tòrcer
Blau Grana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom
el sap tothom

Barça!, Barça!, Baaaarça!!!!

In English

The whole stadium
Makes a noise
We are the blaugrana people
It doesn’t matter where we come
Whether it’s from north or south
All of us are in agreement
A flag makes us brothers
Blaugrana to the wind
A valiant shout
We’ve got a name that everyone knows

Barça! Barça! BAAAAAAAAAARÇA!

OK. I know the translation isn’t brilliant but you get the general idea. It’s really rousing stuff and we all love singing at Camp Nou or even in the bar whilst we’re watching the game. Needless to say, we sang it a lot last season.

Anyway, here’s a video of the song. Feel free to sing along.

Round Two – Pellegrini’s Got His Work Cut Out

admin — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 08:05:01 +0000

Although I hope that Barça win La Liga for the second year on the trot, what I really want to see is a well-fought competition – and that means more than just competition from Real Madrid.

For La Liga to fulfill its potential as The Best League in the World – with the permission of the EPL – we need to see Sevilla, Atlético, Villarreal and Valencia fighting for more than just Champions and Europa League places. However, after only one game, it looks like this season’s Liga will follow a similar pattern to last year.

Sevilla lost in Mestalla and Atlético got thrashed by Málaga, so I won’t be surprised if Barça and Madrid are ten points clear at the top of the table come December. Let’s hope this doesn’t happen because it’d be very bad news for Spanish Football.

This week we’ll get a better idea of whether La Liga is going to be a two horse race or not. Espanyol-Madrid and Getafe-Barça are two interesting tests for the favourites - debuting in their new stadium and with the memory of Jarque still very present, Espanyol have got a lot of reasons to put up a fight and an unpredictable Getafe are a very tough nut to crack on a good day.

I think most of us agree that Barça start La Liga with a slight advantage over Pellegrini’s Real Madrid because they

Pellegrini has a tough job ahead of him

already play as a team, whereas the Bernabéu boys are as yet a group that relies on flashes of brilliance from individual players. The big question is whether the undeniable quality of Kaká, Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema will be enough to follow the pace that Barça has already set by winning the two Super Cups.

Comparisons between the two squads are inevitable, and I must admit that I glance down the list of names that make up this Real Madrid side and some of my culé bravado fades. However, it remains to be seen whether this group of superstars will actually work well together as a block.

Barça have signed fewer players, but the three signings are players that were definitely on Guardiola’s Wish List. Chygrynskiy will be key in the centre of the defence, while with Maxwell on one flank and Alves on the other, the backs will be coming up to join the attack even more often than they did last season.

Guardiola ready for the season ahead

Having watched quite a few videos now, there’s no doubt in my mind that Ibrahimovic is a potentially great player but his role in the side will be very different from Samuel Eto’o. He’s more classy and stylish but I doubt whether he’ll score as many goals and he’s still got his work cut out to get himself in the right position for when Messi, Xavi and Iniesta, in particular, start to work their magic.

But the fact remains that Barça only have to adapt their game for one player whilst not even Pellegrini could predict Madrid’s starting line-up in a month’s time. And what’s more the ‘cantera’ factor means that Barça’s theoretical substitutes know the 4-3-3 philosophy like the back of their hands and both they themselves and the fans are confident that should anything go awry, they’ll slot into the first team just like veterans.

Anyway here are this week’s games . . .

Zlatan Ibrahimovic 2009 – The Prince of Passion

admin — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 20:39:38 +0000

I just went into YouTube to try and find a video of Barça’s magnificent 4-1 victory over Racing on Tuesday (22-09-09). I must admit I had our boy Lionel Messi on my mind.

Nobody seems to have loaded up the goals yet but my attention was caught by this.

The ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC highlights so far this season, Some tasty moments and FOUR goals in FOUR games.

Young Lionel is undoubtedly the King of World Football but Prince Zlatan is growing in stature – if he wasn’t tall enough already.

FC Barcelona Tickets and Camp Nou Tickets – Fantastic Primera Liga and Spanish Football Tickets – are worth every goddamn cent when these two get going.

Does anyone remember the name of that Cameroon centre-forward who played for us last season?

Round Three – Return To La Liga

admin — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 10:23:08 +0000

Now the first round of Champions League Group Stage games are over and done with La Liga’s back this weekend.

Barça-Atleti - always a good game!

The big game is very obviously FC Barcelona against Atletico de Madrid at Camp Nou on Saturday, and it’ll be interesting to see what happens. Barça won’t be displeased at taking a point from the Guisseppe Meazza, but Atletico won’t be at all happy with their single point against extremely modest Apoel Nicosia. Barça are obviously the favourites but one never knows with Atletico (especially against Barça) – on paper, they’ve got a great side, perhaps they’ll start to put some decent football together on Saturday.

I doubt whether Xerez will be able to ruffle Real Madrid’s feathers. Despite a lapse of concentration in the second half against FC Zurich, the Merengue Machine looks like its slowly moving into first gear, and La Liga looks even more as if it’s going to be a Barça-Madrid head to head.

We mustn’t forget Sevilla, though, or Valencia who are playing in the Europa Cup tonight. Interestingly, the other two Europa Cup contenders Villarreal and Athletic Club are facing each other on Sunday. This is definitely the game I’ll be watching and I’ll also be watching closely tonight to see how they get on against their respective European rivals.

I’ll also be keeping an eye on Espanyol, who’ll be at La Coruña – they’ve had a bad start to the season and I’m hoping their luck will improve.

Anyway, here’s this week’s games as usual and I’ve also added Wednesday’s just in case I don’t find the time to write another post before then.

Who do you want to win Primera Liga Barcelona or Real Madrid?

admin — Sat, 12 Sep 2009 19:51:04 +0000

I like Real Madrid. Hope they win but I know that Barca’s too good 4 them.

I respect Barca enormously and they are thoroughly enjoyable to watch with classy players, but my heart is with Real. I have followed them in that league for a long time and nothing will change that. So it’s Real for me !!
