Bernardo Silva, bliss and end

1. respect for Europe.

The boat enter into Champions in the rush of moving forward in terms of putting it together as a team. The goal of saving the image and returning it to historical status demands this. Bayern and Inter will test the strength of boat in a tournament that rewards small details and doesn’t forgive a lack of concentration. Mental lapses should remain for history. The group of Xavi it is designed to compete on all fronts but is a step below more mature teams. The Bayern his games are counted by goals but he does not have 40 goals of Lewandowski. The Pole’s absence is a given Sadio Mane a false nine, more inside attackers and the Dutch positional touch offered by the reborn De Ligt, Gravenberch Y Mazraoui. If he boat he knows how to compete in the League, he will help him in the Champions League, an open tournament, of flashes, moments and for cracks.

2. Unity.

Juan Carlos Unzue managed to turn the greedy business of soccer towards its most social essence. From his wheelchair he invested his minimum amount and filled the Camp Nou with happy and supportive people. He sneaked into the offices of report, Xavi, And you, Pep said Y Txiki, scoured the institutions and immediately won the unconditional support of his colleagues with his infectious enthusiasm. The humanitarian tide consisting of 91,062 people united by football turned the event into another action reinforcing the not always respected slogan ‘more than a club.

City arrived with all their numbers in the ELA match despite a tight schedule: today they play against Crystal palace and on Wednesday 31 will receive the Nottingham; Barça will play tomorrow against Valladolidmaybe included Koundé, and very difficult days await you to round out a staff dependent on sales. Time is running out and it is becoming more and more difficult to find the sides and the replacement for aubameyang.

3. Possess.

After days of intense media tour, Unzué repeatedly and politely urged the minister Carmina Darias and the ‘counsellor’ Joseph Maria Argimon for politicians to once and for all unblock the ALS law approved in March, which has 4,000 people hanging on by a thread to improve their quality of life. Pain does not wait.

4. Developers the lively, colloquial and colloquial conversation between two soccer fans Pep said Y Xavi at the end of the match it was an encouraging image for the culés. It seems that the Egarense coach explained to his former instructor that it will not be easy for the players to assimilate the concepts of the game that he wants to impose. This Barça under construction can win by pressing, it already dominates in two areas with ‘LewyY Ter Stegenbut it will take everyone’s patience to put together a credible team.

5. Final folder.

Xavi He was happy at the press conference. No one expected the stream of praise he showered Bernard Silva, revels in his virtues and his intelligence without hiding from the rooftops that the Portuguese is the icing on the cake that he lacks to accurately capture his ideas. His dedication to the story is such that it seems the ‘Ricard Maxenchs’ room is hosting a presentation in Barcelona of Bernardbut beside Xavi the Lisbon midfielder was not there but Pep said who was confused to attend his friend’s speech. “There are few footballers like him, it depends on the City”, he launched on Guardiolawho responded with compliments.

The signing of Silva could be off the table. The CEO’s ‘citizen’, Ferran Soriano, it was done at the Camp Nou with a slam heard in Canaletes that sounded certain: no case, no conversation, no offer, time has run out and, moreover, the team is playing on Saturday. Pep reiterated yesterday in Manchester so there is no misunderstanding. The interpretation can be made that the boatbecause of the silence of these days, he would have left the Portuguese exiles.

The approach to the Portuguese began too late. Previously, action was taken on other signings believed to be preferred (Lewandowski, raphinha, Cassie, Christensen…) until the club hit violently Frankie to collect and leave space. On August 14, the euphoria of Bernard reached its peak when, after the beating of Bournemouth, went around the four corners of the Etihad to applaud the fans in farewell. Now everyone praises their club. Yes Xavi live, will return to the charge
