Marca.comCristiano employs Marca to apologize to supporters and make amends: “It won’t happen again.” His anxiousness to help his teammates provoked his reactions. He lived through similar situations in Manchester and he surpassed them. The club will not sanction him further for the red card. Kaka: out of the traveling squad due to his groin strain. The Olympique de Marseille coach says he is most concerned with…Raul! The Marseille centerback Diawara: “If I have to tackle alongside CR9, I will.” [...]
. . On Pellegrini’s TacticsPeople have been talking about his 4-4-2 diamond with Xabi at the bottom, Van Der Vaart at the tip, Granero on the right and Marcelo at the left. It was indeed wished for by many Madridistas and was highlighted by Corey from the Offside as part of his wishlist in one of the podcasts for weaker teams (Almeria, 5 points from the relegation zone, fits the bill) that park the bus in the Bernabeu..I wish to [...]
Deportivo 1-3 FC Barcelona: Going into the match and I remembered that this annual trip had become a nightmare for the blaugrana in the past few years. I did the research, looked at how Barca traveled to the Riazor in Coruna, 2 wins 6 losses and 3 draws and filed it in my head in the category of meaningless statistics. It’s why I don’t gamble, it might have looked like a Deportivo sided affair, but then again both Ibra and [...]
I started blogging around this time, right around the last World Cup draw. I was working at a school, and 5 days before the World Cup started I found out that I was being moved to another school; one much closer to my home. Four years later a lot has changed. I’m a father again and I’m recently married. My eldest who was a short fourth grader before Germany is now a tall eighth grader with a budding mustache and [...]

This week on Forza Futbol Elisa and Mando talk about the Serie A and La Liga. Well, obviously more La Liga than Serie A but who’s counting? We talk about the Clasico between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid CF. We talk about the challangers like Sevilla and Valencia that dropped off when the pressure got too great, and about some surprising teams like Sporting de Gijon, Deportivo La Coruna and others, and not so surprising teams like Racing and Malaga [...]
Mock World Cup Draw: South Africa: 2010 I hope you’ll indulge me here, we’re straddling on the outskirts of what we do here at La Liga Weekly, but since La Furia Roja are the number one team in the world, despite what FIFA or the Brazilians think about it, I’ve decided since the pots are in for tomorrow’s World Cup Draw, that I would stage a Mock World Cup Draw and take it through with predictions and all.
