I miss football too, but let's not go too far
Pre-season is all about getting ready for the real season, only Arsenal fans care about winning a trophy!
Bayern Munich beat Barcelona 2-0
at the Allianz Arena in a pre-season game. Stop the press. Write headlines
about how Pep Guardiola got one over on his old teams due to his inside
knowledge. Ribery and Robben are still too much for Barca, and Bayern are
odds-on favorites to repeat their successes from last season. I think people
are missing the point. IT’S A PRE-SEASON GAME.
Xavi and Iniesta didn’t play,
I’ve never heard of most of the players (on both teams) who played in the
second half.
Manchester United lost to
Yokohama Marinos (Moyes off to a shaky start); Arsenal scored 7 against both
Indonesia and Vietnam (they are title contenders); Real Madrid beat Bournemouth
6-0 (Ronaldo is set to eclipse Messi this year); and Serie A teams are still on
summer holidays (they’re not well-prepared to cope with the rigors of the
Champions League this year).
IT’S PRE-SEASON. As long as my
team signs some decent players, doesn’t lose our other decent players, there
are no injuries, no scandals and unless a Middle-Eastern businessman shows some
interest in investing, then I don’t care that much.
Back pages need to be filled,
but give it a rest.
Rant over.
