AC Milan – FC Barcelona – Champions League preview

Posted by Football Tickets Barcelona in blog, Champions league, FC Barcelona, News on Tuesday 22 November 2011

AC Milan and FC Barcelona will face each other on Wednesday 23rd of November for one of the most exciting matchups of the 5th day of the Qualyfying round of the 2011-2012 Champions League.

After an early goal from Pato in September at the Camp Nou, FC Barcelona, whilst dominating most of the match, saw their lead vanish after a late goal in the dying minutes from Thiago Silva : 2-2 (Pedro and Villa had each scored for the Blaugrana). Barça is not seeking revenge. They will go out to play their attacking, high pressure, ball control game, as per usual.

Currently, FC Barcelona are 2 points ahead of their Italian rivals in the group H, and this match could be decisive for the first spot of the group, with the Champions League last 16 in mind:

Ibrahimovic: “Guardiola bullied me!”

Posted by Football Tickets Barcelona in blog, Champions league, FC Barcelona, Media, Spanish Super Cup on Friday 4 November 2011

In his new autobiography, Ibrahimovic claims Guardiola was key to ostracising him.

“It was a childhood dream and I was walking on air” Ibrahimovic was quoted “It started well but then Messi started to talk.
“He wanted to play in the middle, not on the wing, so the system changed from 4-3-3 to 4-5-1. I was sacrificed and no longer had the freedom on the pitch I need to succeed.

“So I asked for a meeting with Guardiola – for a discussion, not an argument. I said I was being used in the wrong way and that they shouldn’t have bought me if they wanted another type of player.

“I told him what a friend had said to me – ‘you bought a Ferrari but drive it like a Fiat‘. The chat seemed to go well but then Guardiola started to freeze me out.

“I would walk into a room; he would leave. He would greet everyone by saying hello, but would ignore me.

“I had done a lot to adapt – the Barca players were like schoolboys, following the coach blindly, whereas I was used to asking ‘why?’ I like guys who run red lights, not pedantic and strict rules. So I tried to be overly nice, didn’t dare lose my temper.

“But after this I stopped trying to adapt. For example, at Barca players were banned from driving their sports cars to training. I thought this was ridiculous – it was no one’s business what car I drive – so in April, before a match with Almeria, I drove my Ferrari Enzo to work. It caused a scene.”

After a 4-1 win against Villarreal during which the former Juventus and Ajax forward only played five minutes.

“Pep was staring at me and I lost it. I thought ‘there is my enemy, scratching his bald head’. I yelled to him: ‘You have no balls!’ And probably worse things than that.

“I added: ‘You are s****ing yourself because of (then-Internazionale manager Jose Mourinho, whose side beat Barca in the Champions League). You can go to hell!’ I was completely mad.

“I threw a box full of training gear across the room, it crashed to the floor and Pep said nothing, just put stuff back in the box.

“I’m not violent, but if I were Guardiola I would have been frightened.”

Barcelona could stand between AC Milan and Champions League glory

Posted by Football Tickets Barcelona in blog, Champions league, European Super Cup, FC Barcelona, News on Thursday 25 August 2011

Coach Allegri insists the seven-times’ European Cup winners AC Milan will be ready for whoever they come out of the hat alongside in Thursday’s draw for the group stages of the Champions League in Monaco.

“I am convinced that, with a full squad, we are on a par with Real Madrid,” he stated. “The only exception is Barcelona“.

“Last season we went out of the competition against Tottenham because of some bad luck and a number of injuries.”

“I do not have to build a team, but I have to improve it. Milan are not perfect.

“Let me give you an example – when Barcelona lose the ball, they try to regain possession at a frenetic pace. That is one aspect we have to do better in.”
