FC Barcelona 5, Cultural Leonesa 0, a.k.a. “We feel pretty!”
By: Ade C. |Forgive any typos you might find in this post, as I find that typing whilst bouncing gleefully on your seat and humming “Tot el camp” is not conductive to good spelling.
Yesterday’s was one of those pretty, gleeful matches that culés (and football aficionados everywhere) can only sit back and enjoy while they happen, and then [...]
The not so Running of the Bulls: Osasuna 1 – 1 FC Barcelona
By: Pedro |Every year, the famed Running of the Bulls event is held in Pamplona. Now, modern media has done a good job at exposing such exciting and traditional events for all the average people around the world to see and hear. So, i won’t have to describe the particulars of this event. A recollection of the [...]
Cultural Leonesa 0, Barça 2, a.k.a. “Pedrito to the rescue (again)!”
By: Ade C. |It probably wasn’t one of Barça’s most thrilling matches, but then again, when you field a team of youngsters against a third division team, you can’t expect an earth-shattering performance, can you? (well, yes, you could expect it, but you shouldn’t)
With Real Madrid’s precedent of losing 4-0 to a Segunda B team the day before, [...]
The Russian Banana Peel
By: Pedro |That was the general consensus when another ho-hum Champions League Group draw show came to an end and Rubin Kazan had wound up with Inter, Barcelona and Dynamo Kiev. A banana peel in a group of high-flyers, more or less. One that the well-oiled high powered Barcelona and Inter were planning to avoid slipping on, [...]
Valencia 0, Barcelona 0, a.k.a. “It could’ve been much worse”
By: Ade C. |So, we returned from international break, plagued with rumours and injuries (real and imagined), to take on Valencia at the Mestalla stadium, after having earned six victories in the first six fixtures of the Liga. Valencia’s main asset, David Villa, couldn’t recover in time and was not included in the squad, while only Thierry Henry [...]
Barcelona vs. Malaga aka: Ibra!
By: Iggy |After WWII America had “I like Ike” and now I have “I like Ibra”. Join me if you’re as happy with him as I am.
He didn’t start, but replaced an injured Henry (28′) who was underperforming and still needs to find the groove he hit last season.
Starting XI
———–Valdes———–
Alves–ElCapitan–Chygnasty–Abidal
—Xavi—BigYa—Keita—–
Messi——Henry——-Mr.Pedro
Where was Ghostface!? I don’t know, but [...]
Postgame aka. wow
By: Iggy |Let me say this real quick: We kicked ass!
No really, that was absolutely amazing.
Our starting XI had a few surprises
——————Valdes———————-
Alves—Piquenbauer–Chygnasty—MaxwellHouse
——-Xavi——–Busi2.0——-Keita———-
–Messi——–Ibracadabra——–Henry——–
Everyone came out as if their lives depended on this game, before even a minute had gone by Henry had rocked the Atleti crossbar with a longrange missile from outside the box. One minute later Ibra [...]
Barça vs. Inter postgame aka: What happened?
By: Iggy |No really, what happened, I missed the 2nd half because I had to go to lab…oh wait 0-0 draw, Italy wins. So I’ll be doing the analysis of the first half and Shadows (present at the liveblogs) has kindly volunteered to help me with the postgame for the 2nd half (which I subsequently edited).
This would [...]
Gamper PostGame aka: don’t let the score fool you
By: Iggy |First off, lets get the bitter taste out of our collective mouth: we lost, 1-0. Yes we outplayed them, yes we controlled midfield throughout, yes we looked good, no we did not score. With that said, it was a good showing from our B-Team. Guardiola had said that he would treat this game as a [...]
Review: Chivas 1 – 1 Barça, AKA Holy Canteranos, Batman!
By: Isaiah |Last night Chivas (Guadalajara) drew with Barcelona in the final match of FCB’s American tour. As I write this, the team is already back in Barcelona, probably not resting on laurels, especially not one Tall Ass Swede (TAS). There are a lot of things to take from this particular tour, most of which are positive.
First, [...]
