There is tension and no pressure in Barcelona!

They haven’t beaten at home for many years. Even if it wasn’t achieved on Sunday, it’s not an achievable goal. They can’t compete there like in San Mamés, but one day this long streak will be broken. We both had casualties, and no one doubted that their spare parts were superior to ours. But what if yes? One said…

There is no need to leave dangerous places or the pressure of having to climb to enter Europe as happens in the spring, dates when we usually go, to make matters worse, without freshness. At this moment we must be more dangerous.

We put aside for the moment the debate about planning and manpower development and the lack of power plants. The two generations that live in our locker room don’t know what it’s like to win the League on two big stages. Now they have a chance to graduate and endure like the Athletic of 2001 with the cods of Urzaiz and Ezquerro He beat them at Camp Nou.

This week we listened Asier Villaliber that they have two more legs like us, and why we cannot fight and win against them. And, lacking the traditional awe-inspiring effect of its stadium, so loud for its capacity and size, why throw out the ringing of the bell. That’s the idea where you have to get on the plane. I love how one of the season’s “visits to the dentist” was handled. Very hopeful.

Statistics

Traditionally, statistics have been more associated with sports such as basketball. And taken to the extreme, in the NBA world. Basically, these are just numbers that, as a result of modern times of party hypersaturation, cause a loss of perspective. They increase merits and medals for some and diminish the scale of what others have achieved.

Personally, the opinion is clear: no one who plays a thousand games for Athletic is shady José Ángel Iribar Cortajarena. He will always be the greatest. It’s hard to believe that someone could be one in the future, but today, we’ll all make sure they haven’t been born yet and possibly never will. Probably no one in history could descend from a hypothetical historical podium to Tchopo, Piru and Telmo.

For a debate that seems to be beginning to exist, we would greatly appreciate the opinions of the few surviving members and fans who have enjoyed the entire careers of all those and the current ones. It’s hard to find many who can certify more than 80 years of football watched. For example, my friend Juan Mari Aranaa veteran partner who has seen them through all colours, even witnessing the legendary snow match against United.

The person who signed these lines believes that not beating Txopo’s records in the future, or those of Txetxu or Piru today in games played, minutes or in any way gives the current captain a place in the fifty best in history . Question of opinions. In itself, certainly controversial and against the grain, there is not a single debate. What do you think? Paper and pen.

If nothing goes wrong, here in seven days.

ALTERNATIVE FOR FEDERATION

Matthew

Yes, Lahoz! That’s what this guy has, over and over again. It always finds its place of fame. Yesterday we wiped our hands of withdrawing the Valencian braid. Now we are shocked by the news that this good man can be an alternative consensus for the national football federation, even avoiding the election.
More than the enormous soldier associated with the position, known as a result of the case of Rubiales, the former referee is certainly also attracted to avoid anonymity and indifference and return to the front page. He carries it in his nature. We hope that an alternative will emerge and that Athletic will never support the man who skinned us and twitched in green.
