We have talked a lot in these weeks about sacred cows, that term invented by Cruyff to designate the stars of the team who pull gallons to guarantee their presence in the team, sometimes with a dubious performance.
Today after the bombshell news of the departure of Pique, we must remember the greatness of an entire generation that allowed Barça and the Spanish team to rise to the top of world football. The amalgamation of two remarkable generations brought us to Olympus and allowed for the first time an almost massive exodus of talented players to the Premier League and other European leagues. the of Pique is the generation of 87, with Cesc Fabregas and the great Leo Messi. They were preceded by mentors like Xavi Y Puyol with whom they coincided for a long time and also those Iniesta, Busquets either sunrise. Rarely has Barça, a club so fond of international star signings, relied on so much talent from La Masía.
The splendor of all these ‘wonder boys’ left Real Madrid dry, rushing to sign as many as they could, to compensate for the success of the tiqui taca. Then, the mismanagement of the board led to the decline of this generation with bad signings. Rome burned. Messi Y Pique They stopped understanding each other, while one and the other accused them of making line-ups, sending more than necessary coaches like Setien. Now it doesn’t matter, it’s history. Pique ended up being rejected as his teacher Puyol. When everything returns, we will not only live grateful for the glow of a glorious past, but yearn for new horizons. It’s time to clap Pique
