…..and like him real Madrideither because it has a real gentleman as a coach, or because it has an owner who is a friend, protector and collaborator of the president of Barça, or because it has some footballers who only wanted to win by saving their strength for Atlético (on Thursday), or because They saw themselves as so superior that they laughed when, after 10 minutes they were already 2-0, they did not want to end the Laporta-Xavi project with a stroke of a pen, which is why, now, today, president and coach are simply licking their wounds, nothing more.
The ridicule of Barça, predicted by many of us, who, apparently, watched, commented on and judged games that only Xavi and his technical staff saw these as wonderful meetings, which were making the team grow on the path to excellence (“we are halfway to the best of Barça”said Xavi; “They fear us in Madrid because we are returning.”Laporta insisted), has left Laporta and Xavi naked in front of the fans, who, now, are beginning to doubt that we are not facing the worst season in decades.
Too easy
The worst thing about what happened last night is that Real Madrid beat you without doing anything, shook you while laughing, beat you while playing tag, humiliated you without blinking and, above all, uncovered all your shortcomings, starting with those caused by the tandem of the Hernández, who, in the previous one, had dared to announce that they would be faithful to Cruyffism and appeared with a fearful 4-4-2.
There was one thing worse than all that. And Xavi announced that he had an umbrella, a diving suit and enough media advisors to withstand the criticism that will rain down on him from now on! But the bad thing is that he has been pointing out to all of us who wrote that this was not sustainable and, now, instead of thinking about what happened and how to solve it, he simply says that his mission, today, tomorrow and the next day, until beat the Salamanca Unionists (Will they beat him? Yes? Do you believe it?) It will be to stick your head in the sand and hope that this clears up.
At the moment, there are those who have already written that the situation is easy to summarize: there is no team, there is no president (or he is celebrating), there is no coach, there is no stadium, there is no euro and, probably, there is no future. And, the truth is, the summary of this long weekend is that Barça traveled to Riyadh, with all expenses paid, to celebrate in style, in the Champions League, with dancing, meals, cenotes and songs, a 2-0 against Osasuna, the 12th in LaLiga.
Yesterday marked four years since Barça fired Ernesto Valverde “because he was boring” being leader of LaLiga. The ‘Txingurri’, now, has just placed his Athletic in a place that it has not been in the last 30 years
Yesterday marked exactly four years since Barça fired my friend Ernesto Valverde “because it was boring” And he was the leader of LaLiga. He ‘Txingurri’Now, he has just placed his Athletic in a place that it has not been in the last 30 years. What will happen today with Xavi and the staff family after losing the easiest title of all? Nothing. Nothing. Nothing. Do you know why? Because the one who devised this lie was Laporta and the one who bought it (and, now, he suffers the consequences there!) was Xavi. They are together in this mediocrity and, therefore, it seems impossible that they are going to accuse each other of the catastrophe that is to come.
Xavi has already spent all his bullets. All. He has talked about the sun, the height of the grass, he criticized that the nearby press, culé, did not help them, he has said that the players are lazy, that he does not have the 2010 squad, he has promised 1,243 times that the team will play better, who is growing…there is no longer any rabbit left in his hat. It was the day of resurrection and Real Madrid humiliated them without getting off the bus. That was harmful.
Yes it will happen again
It’s all so unbelievable (well, from this corner we never allow ourselves to be beaten), it’s all artificial, it’s all so deceptive, that if there’s one thing I’m sure of, it’s that they’re not even going to be able to fulfill what they say. Not long ago, sorry, two weeks ago, Xavi said “it won’t happen again.” Not only has it happened again: it has been even worse. Therefore, when Laporta said “before, if he lost, nothing would happen, but with me losing will have consequences”, we don’t have to believe him either.
They are friends, they will not harm themselves. Don’t think that Laporta will remember that he never loved Xavi because he was green and don’t even think that Xavi will say that he loved Bernard Silva already Joshua Kimmich. They are united, they say, by Barça, by their love for Barça. And they are with their families, in the box and on the bench. This will not be broken by having lost the Super Cup. The three big titles remain. That is to say, the setback could be even worse.
How far and how close, how ridiculous and what a great shame it now causes to loop all the videos of Joan Laporta and his entourage this week in Riyadh, starting with the funny ones Masip and Piquecelebrating their move to the final after eliminating Osasuna.

What an image, how sad, what a regret. But in there, nobody blushes, nobody blushes. The party seems endless, on the way to the public limited company that the president’s supporters have already launched.
P.S. Already said Dani Carvajal when, in the summer, they lost (3-0) the Dallas classic: “Let those from Barça be calm; “When push comes to shove, we will go over them.”
