This is sobering news as Deco just returned from suspension and the blaugrana certainly weren’t [...]

There is apparently something wonderful to be said about the 4-3-3; that something was four goals against a decent squad on Saturday as Barcelona won their first away game since something like 1979 (if you’re actually keeping track at home, the last away win was 4 months ago, though the blaugrana have yet to lose [...]

The next game for the blaugrana is this Saturday away to Recreativo Huelva (3pm EST) and after El Clasico, that’s just not really a big deal. It is, of course, in that all games are a big deal and must be won, but there’s an emotional letdown after Real Madrid comes to town, especially after [...]

Whereas for most of Europe, silly things tend to happen now and then, in Spain “now and then” seems to mean every weekend. Take this past weekend for example.
