Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich angered their supporters yesterday with news that they would be
making a spectacular signing before the transfer window closed only for the fans to later find out
that it was a marketing gimmick.
Apparently, Bayern was trying to gain interest for their new app by creating intense speculation
as to who the signing would be.
Granada vs FC Barcelona
Today's away match at the Los Carmenes stadium is a perfect opportunity for Lionel Messi to get
his first away goal in La Liga since the start of the season. The Argentinean scored in away games
in the Champions League and the Spanish Supercopa, so a goal versus newly promoted Granada would do
him justice in La Liga.
Cesc Fabregas is one goal short of equaling a Barcelona record of scoring in five consecutive
matches since first joining the club. £36 million well spent is the reverberating feeling
encapsulating the signing of a certain Cesc Fabregas. Like most good things, it took a while to

Cesc Fabregas returns to his boyhood club
From the FCB website:
Arsenal FC and FC Barcelona have reached the beginnings of an agreement for the transfer of Cesc
F bregas with the documents to be signed and the medical to take place on Monday.
The website also details his return to Barcelona after eight seasons with the Gunners where he
established himself as one of the world's foremost midfielders.
A year late but tomorrow will see Fabregas don a FCB jersey
Cesc Fabregas is to land today evening in Barcelona and he's expected to undergo a medical
examination before the club formalizes the deal tomorrow. He might be unveiled as early as
Wednesday at Camp Nou for the second leg of the hugely anticipated Super Cup between Real Madrid
and Barcelona.

Just two days after winning the Euro U21 Championship, FC Barcelona's Thiago Alcantara went
straight to the plastic surgeon for a celebratory nose job!
Ok fine, the real reason he went under the knife was to fix nagging respiratory
problems, and we hear the operation went off without a hitch.

Hace apenas 20 años el Fútbol Club Barcelona no tenía ni una solo ‘Orejona'. Siempre fue un
club muy importante, más por su masa social y lo que significa para una región que por títulos
en la máxima competición continental. Ahora, dos décadas después, el Barça tiene 4 Champions y
lo que te ‘rondaré morena'.
