Make The Difference

BLOG_TH — Tue, 25 Aug 2009 07:16:12 GMT

You could stop at enough.
Just another name on the teamsheet.
Happy just to turn up.

Or you could become their worst nightmare.

The one who turns a game in an instant.
Sees the pass no-one else sees.
Turns desperate defence into decisive attack.

Be the one that they worry about days before kick-off.
Who blurs the line between hate and respect.
Who can never be stopped,
Only feared.

Tester’s notes:

Sunny day, soft breeze. Ideal. Long and short-range passing led by Coach Schincaglia.

Team session: keep ball lasted for over an hour. More than 100 touches on the ball. Schincaglia pleased with every one of them: "It’s great for tight control and one-two passes."

Tester's notes

Freezing conditions. Heaviest snowfall in 18 yrs. Balls inflated to 12.5 psi exactly. Arsene had a juggle & some one-touches w Paul Johnson. "It’s good, it’s lively." The keepers... Almunia worried. "Not good for goalkeepers. Again!" Sorry Manuel. (Great for fans though.)

Team session. Wilshere : "Yeah, it feels good on the touch."

Shooting session: Ball flight and rotation were true. Some spectacular long-range shots. Get ready Premier League – spectacular goals are coming.

Team session: Running with ball in pairs. Short passes. Headers, chests, volleys. Busquets, coached the keepers: "The touch is perfect."

Accuracy contest: all players on 16 metre line. Who can land the ball in the centre circle? Puyol took it. Who can hit the cross bar, repeatedly? Iniesta walked away with this one. They say he always does. I like to think the ball helped. Massip: "There's no wobble, the ball goes straight at its target."

Shooting session: led by Assistant Coach Joan Barbara Mata: "The ball bends nicely when you shoot." Next stop Arsenal.

Barcelona strode into the Stadio Olimpico, on a mission to become Europe’s greatest. Led by Iniesta, they claimed every ball in midfield, virtually passing Man Utd into submission as they took down another of the giants of the game.

Lifting the greatest prize in club football means that in Pep Guardiola’s first season as manager, Barcelona have become the first Spanish team ever to win the treble of the league title, the Copa del Rey and now Europe’s biggest prize.

Barcelona were never just 11 on the pitch. Instead, Europe’s finest came together on the night that mattered most.

An Empire will rise, an Empire will fall

BLOG_TH — Fri, 22 May 2009 11:40:45 GMT

In Rome on May 27, two football empires will collide. This season Manchester United and Barcelona won their league, both are playing for a third major trophy. And both have a rich history in Europe’s premier club competition.

Barcelona are the only team to play in every year of European competition since they started in 1955. At 11, they have the most consecutive wins in the competition. And this year they’re on for a treble of La Liga, Copa Del Rey and Europe’s greatest prize. All in Pep Guardiola’s first season as manager.

Manchester United have played in every year of European competition since 1994. In 1999 they won a treble, claiming the Premier League, FA Cup and Europe’s greatest prize. And this year they’re on to become the first team to successfully defend their European crown. All increasing the strain on Sir Alex Ferguson’s already heaving trophy cabinet.

So who will take glory in Rome?

Get to the Facebook event to have your say on the final and which team has the greatest empire.
