According to the Spanish newspaper Sport, the Spanish Football Federation (FEF) has commanded the Bojan Krkic attend the UEFA U-17 tournament in May rather than stay in Barcelona and play for his club team. It seems counterproductive from a footballing standpoint to command that your players attend a fairly meaningless tournament at the expense of […]
Barcelona 1 - 0 Levante: Eto’o grabs 3 points

Well, we got 3 points, even if it turned out to be pretty much the hardest way we could do it while maintaining a clean sheet. 1-0 against a side as poor as Levante isn’t very reassuring, but the number of shots on goal (8) certainly suggest potency. It’s just that we can’t blaze over […]

I don’t know about you guys, but seeing Barcelona’s latest and greatest wonderkid, Bojan Krkic Perez, make his debut as well as grab his first goal just sends shivers down my spine. I won’t go into great detail about the match (one of Al-Ahly’s centenary matches), but here’s a link to FC Barcelona Blog’s description […]

There are times in my life when I realize I’m living vicariously through the latest FIFA game, but it does come as a surprise that players as famous and talented as Cesc Fabregas do it too. Barcelona paper Sport is reporting that Fabregas says Messi is better in reality than he is on the Playstation. […]

After a week that pushed Barcelona 4 points clear in the league and included a ridiculous goal by Leo Messi in the Copa del Rey, they play at Sevilla’s El Madrigal with an eye on shoring up their advantage over Sevilla and Real Madrid. Sevilla plays Athletic Bilbao while Real Madrid take on Valencia at […]

Now the league is ours to lose again as an own goal from Fernando Navarro in the last minute of regulation gave us a 1-0 home win over Mallorca. It was a handy bit of luck for the blaugrana, but they did dominate possession and the majority of the chances. […]
