La jornada sabatina en la LFP nos deja como líder de la competición al
Madrid, que con un solitario gol de Higuain al 22 derrotó a un débil Racing por 1 a
0.
Tras la victoria del Real, el Barza no pudo ganar en casa de un Athletic que
marcha bien y solo logró sacar el empate a 1 , y con esto pierde la cabeza en la tabla de puntos
que le arrebatan los de Pellegrini justo antes del Derbi Español.

Nou Hero at the Nou Camp
In the dying moments of Barcelona's Champions League triumph in May, coach Pep Guardiola made a
substitution to run down the clock. Andreas Iniesta was the player sacrificed. The diminutive
midfielder produced a stirring display on the night, along with partner in crime Xavi.

Thank goodness for the Sunday papers. So hellbent on printing shit they have focused more on Lionel
'I'm another Barcelona cunt' Messi's pleas to Cesc to join him at Barca and become the world's
greatest midfielder than our defeat at Sunderland. Not only is this yet another insult to Cesc, it
is another one to Arsenal and I for one can't wait to get them in the Champions League so the
World's greatest midfielder can slam their lack of respect into the back of their net three or four
times.

So, today I get up and see that Real Madrid won their match yesterday (without Ronaldo) and I
see that Barca allowed Bilbao to draw them. With Barcelona giving up the two points that gave
Real Madrid the seat atop the Spanish Premier Division Table. With Real Madrid holding fast
without their biggest star I am NOT prepared to take back what I said about them, but I do have to
give them credit where credit is due.

The thing that we all knew happened: Henry is a fraud. However, in the
tradition of French smooth frauds he is someone who made it into an art; in his country the books
about thieves are popular.
But the ‘hand' is not the only thing that makes Henry what he is; it is
simply incredible how people in England or football fans in general forget all the things this man
did.

for their club (mostly on the wing though).
