I assume most of our readership is not living in caves, away from all human contact, and that they already know (because they’ve seen it here , here or even here ) that our very own Lionel Messi has walked off with France Football’s 2009 Ballon D’Or with a sweeping 473 out of ...

This game did not live up to its billing. I mean sure, both teams finished with 10 men. Sure, Zlatan finished the Alves cross by almost blowing the net off the post. Sure Messi was all over the place, looking lively and embarrassing defenders all over the place. Sure, Lolando and company ...

An imperious performance by our men in Blaugrana today saw some vivacious attacking football that had Inter on their heels all evening long. Some good saves by Julio Cesar prevented by what all accounts (save the score line) was a rout. A singular tense moment in the first half, caused by ...

Well, we’re stuck in it now, aren’t we? With the quickest of glances at the upcoming schedule, you’d reckon that Pep, Tito and Co. will have to sharpen their knives and put on their cowboy boots for what’s about to happen.
You see, they don’t just hand out stadium nicknames like bits of corn ...

So this is it, boys and girls, the end of international break. Let’s hear that sigh of relief and the raucous celebrations because (with the exception of Touré and Keita leaving for the African Cup), our boys are home to stay until the next year at least.
And what did this day of friendlies ...

An old Mexican man, worn from years of work and the testing weight of life, once told me as I stood in (for the night) the oddly contemplative McDonalds, waiting for possibly the most time-consuming six pack of McNuggets I’d ever ordered: “The broken man comes back strong and ...

So, yesterday was the first day of friendlies, World Cup qualifiers and playoffs of this maligned international break, and those of our boys who had been called up by their respective NTs were in the thick of things, as usual (except for Chygrynskiy , who didn’t play in the match that Ukraine ...

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.

FC Barcelona vs Cultural Leonesa: how to play in the midst of a stampede. An international stampede.
Yes, that’s a bit of an exaggeration. FC Barcelona players have way too much class to trample anyone in their rush to leave for international pastures. I assume they will politely excuse themselves before leaving, but the point remains that someone is going to actually go on the pitch to defend ...

A solitary flag, claret and blue, stands where two lines meet. When it comes to Barcelona, a few keywords are in constant rotation: possession, eminence, Lionel Messi, brilliant, short (and yet the likes of Piqué, Chygrynskiy, Touré, Busquets, and Ibrahimovic tower over most), tiki-taka, ...
