Four weeks? that's not that bad even though we have to play against Sevilla, Valencia and At.Madrid in the upcoming month...

What I'm worrying about is that they chose to ignore the lesson they should have learned from the match against La Real. People, even players didn't regard this as a big match. I know we will go through after all but this was the CL match against AC Milan. People at Camp Nou were too quiet and calm... In the second half our players were smiling and looked like they didn't care about their minor errors, as if they only think about the final.

This is a dangerous symptom, isn't it? This result will encourage other teams and if Pep and his players didn't take it seriously, it would cost a lot.

Puyol was back. His experience and captaincy might be the pieces that were missing these days.

I videotaped them saying good bye at the end of the last match against Tenerife (09-10) in Camp Nou. Guess Henry wished him luck here too. http://i975.photobucket.com/albums/ae234/football...

do you have any source?

thanks a lot! ;)
Oh yes I usually use Google Translate but it didn't work well for me this time.. maybe it depends on languages?

I really want to know how Gio answered Xavi in the rest part of it:S

Hey, thanks a lot! As I said already, I really appreciate it because I know the world cup stuff wasn't the best memory for you guys..

The final was Gio's last match as a player but Xavi is always being himself ;) I like the anecdote about him and van Bommel.

Btw, the whole interview isn't online. Does anyone have a copy of the mag? I'm curious about the rest of it.

OT: Are there any dutch fans here?

LAF magazine's latest issue has an interview with Xavi and ex-Barca player Giovanni van Bronckhorst. http://www.lifeafterfootball.eu/

I would really appreciate it if someone could scan or translate it for us:D

I heard that Marca already denied it, confirmed that clearly he’s NOT saying “mono”. The words he’s mouthing don’t match MONO.

Poor Busquets. His career could have been ruined.

We played like a f**king boss on the pitch.

Sid Lowe " Guardiola had clearly decided that he was going to do this. Not a snap response to question, but a concerted performance from start"

What is his purpose?

I like how quickly Mou reacted ;)

No, her ancestors were from Catalunya.
