Playing at home (III)

We returned a week with our vision of the world soccer articles. In this third edition of Playing at home will make a first visit to the English house of John Carlin and then go our trip to Madrid and Barcelona to give our personal view of the biology that could entitle Part 1: Messi is finished and Part 2: Messi not mind me.

• John Carlin hoped write something about the palizón that gave Manchester City their neighbors in the United . Carlin has a very personal way of seeing and understanding the English game, perhaps because his business takes him to live long stretches away from the borders of a waste of sympathy and sexuality that is Isabell II. To analyze what may present as heartbreaking defeat for Sir Alex Ferguson, the good hand of Carlin check historic episode of The Teutoburg ambush in his article "Give me back my legions!"

• Much nonsense has been said in relation to the three parties Messi scoring drought. And, of course, most of the criticism came from the press desnortadas pro-Real Madrid, in part, I must say, by the total absence of critical sense of the vast majority of pro-Barcelona press. We all know the kind of barking some dirty ink sets and a few columns, but in Madrid, and La Meseta, as some say pejoratively in Catalonia, there is also room to praise the play of his eternal rival. 202 goals, 24 years, how where is the limit of Leo Messi? is the publisher of Brand on Wednesday. Yes, it appeared half hidden in the back pages, just before the billboard, but there it was.

• Without wishing to sanctify and demonize each other (God help me, what language an atheist!), I just surrender to the empirical evidence: in the press pro-Barcelona is practically impossible to find a journalist who says anything good from the Madrid. It would be understandable if we focus on the good times you're living your computer and simply ignore their historic rival. But what will, nothing like that. Because that makes the slightest Madrid, they are there to give anyone wax-Mourinho and / or Christian, preferably-up in the identity card. Instead, they will not touch their demigods. Let nobody say that Guardiola, the Immaculate, he has been mistaken. And, let alone anyone dares to criticize Messi, the Infallible. So this week, in addition to the usual dose of masturbation and-one-pajillero type, we saw that mixture of reckoning counterattack that took place after the two hat-tricks from Messi. To sample, two buttons: A hat trick to silence many mouths , Vehils Joan and Leo between the lines , Carme Barceló.
