I still hear the voices of some friends and balls saying, after the defeat and elimination against the Manchester Utdin the europa leagueby the way, the fourth fall in 16 months of Xavi Hernandez in the Old Continent, which “That will suit us well for the League & rdquor;.
I still hear, yes, the voices that began to resonate last night after the huge ridiculous, I’m sorry, yes, I know that everyone likes to talk about missteps, but losing to a team that fights for relegation and that was thrashed, ago just a few days, from Girona, it’s ridiculous, that they commented on another idiocy that “This defeat will go well for the Cup& rdquor;.
And it’s that, I’m sorry, but I’m still the only one who, at this point in the night, yes, I write this at dawn, wonders, what will they say if at Real Madrid, next Thursday, he wakes up from his lethargy, avenges the defeat of the Super Cupfor example, and shakes the barca with a 2-0, which would leave him trembling in the semifinal and, even worse, with the wound bleeding, as it would be the third consecutive defeat of the course, something never seen before.
incomprehensible KO
It is evident that nobody understood anything in the Barcelona dressing room when they arrived at the Mediterranean Games stadium from Almeria. And when I say nobody, I start with Xavi Hernández and end with the untouchable Robert Lewandowski. What part of what was at stake they could not guess. They didn’t realize that by winning that game they would win the League, really? Should it be emphasized to the boys, veterans and novices, rich (almost) all? Perhaps the problem starts at that point: when you have to tell him everything.
The only doubt that remains for friends and balls that find an explanation for everything, or almost everything, even the ‘Negreira scam’, the millionaire signings of ferran and raphinhathe eliminations from the Champions League and the Europa League and the composition of a squad that, after levers and more than 200 million, continues to be uncompetitive at a global, European level, it is to know if Vinicius Junior and Benzemawhich is not that it is for many parties, they will have with this shaken and weak Barça that we have just discovered in seven days (well, the truth is that it was similar to the one that won, as a chipira, in Girona, Getafe, Cádiz or in the Wanda Metropolitano) the same compassion and condescension that has Florentino Perez with his friend Joan Laporta.
Because it is clear that last night’s Barça not only lost, ridiculously, without football, with Araujo as a center forward and being the best, with several children in his line-up, the opportunity of the year, but, on top of that, he opened the doors of heaven to Real Madrid, the hungriest team in the world. From having lost LaLiga at dinner time on Saturday to being able to reach out to Barça at bedtime on Sunday. And it is already known that if you give Real Madrid the opportunity, they may not miss it.
You could have gone to the Bernabéu to close the year in a bossy way, in a ‘fucking master’ way and, now, you visit Florentino Pérez’s flying saucer with fear in your body, the possibility of being returned the favor (Do you want to see each other again? Really?) and convinced that neither Carlo Ancelotti neither wine jr they are going to waste the opportunity to throw salt on that wound to prevent it from healing in February.
Where is the DNA?
Almeria, I’m sorry (or not), it has meant doubting again in this team, in this project and in a technical team that was seen to lose its temper, even when it came to explaining what happened because, on top of that, Xavi, when Realizing that he was blaming everyone (including himself), he tried to back off, but it was too late. He had understood everything.
Especially on an afternoon in which any kindly theory about the alignment (that “I never played a 4-4-2”), about the chosen players, about the excellent way in which their players train and behave, about the magnificent template that you have that you will not notice the loss of Pedro either dembele, not only collapses resoundingly but, on top of that, the team neither has football, nor DNA, nor does it know how to win. Well, yes, throwing dozens of crosses into the area to see if Araujo catches a shot and saves another little point.

The team played without desire, without energy, without determination, without hunger, without desire, without resources, without knowing what was at stake and how much they could win. All. And, what is worse, demonstrating that this theory that some of us shared (silly of us, yes) that it was going to be a pleasant second round because all the ‘greats’ visited the Camp Nou and Barça traveled to fields of lesser teams, It is a theory that has two sides: one, that you believe yourself to be superior, because of who you are, and, two, that they paint your face.
I insist, you just have to know how hungry the whites will be, who seemed already decided, as they say with their usual impudence, to give up LaLiga and the Cup to focus on winning the 15th ‘orejona’ and, now, they see themselves before the the greatest opportunity ever dreamed of: leaving a Barça shaken up in Manchester and Almería touched, very touched. Too much temptation for the dancer and likeable provocateur Vinicius Júnior.
