Pep Guardiola against Real Sociedad
Tello marks debut with goal
With 3 players from the Cantera, Tello and Cuenca playing out wide and Dos Santos sitting in front of defence, Tello, greatly assisted by Messi, got a subtle touch on the 9th minute to score his first official goal in the Spanish League.
Messi on target after a 3 matches drought
Messi was out of luck the whole match, missing 3 clear goal opportunities. His drought finally came to an end, helped by a formidable cross by Alves with 18 minutes remaining. It took Real Sociedad only 2 minutes to reply with goal from Vela to make it 2-1 with a quarter of an hour still left to play.
Nasty injury for Busquets
Sergio Busuets got injured after disputing a ball with a Real attacker on the edge of the box. Maybe the black cat running on the pitch earlier in the match brought bad fortune to the blaugrana midfielder. The picutres look worse than the acutal injury. Busquets could be fit for Wednesday’s clash against Valencia CF in the second leg of the Spanish Cup semi-final.

In addition, Pep Guardiola will have to do without Seydou Keita, due to his participation in the African Nations Cup. The catalan coach, however, will be counting on the youngsters Isaac Cuenca, Jonathan Dos Santos, Sergi Roberto and Tello.

Mourinho to get the boot? Will he last until next season?
Posted by Football Tickets Barcelona in FC Barcelona, Spanish League on Tuesday 24 January 2012
Jose Mourinho is to face tomorrow’s El Classico clash with FC Barcelona amid rising criticism from Real Madrid‘s supporters and players and claims his spell as Real Madrid manager will not carry on to next season.
Madrid are five points ahead of Barcelona at the top of La Liga, but his position has been seriously undermined by the leak of an argument on the training ground between himself, Sergio Ramos and Iker Casillas. ‘Marca’, the Madrid-based paper carried out a full report which has not yet been denied by the Madrid manager.
After Sunday’s 4-1 win over Atlhetic Bilbao, the Barnebeu crowd chanted their support of Mourinho, to show their loyalty regardless, but the other half of the crowd responded with booing and whistles in response. Siro Lopez, a Spanish journalist, of ‘AS’, told TV viewers that Mourinho has decided to leave his post at Barnebeu before next season.
Mourinho has been widely criticised for his Real’s negative strategy of fowls, aggressive play and poor form, and they must now go to meet Barca in their homeground and win tomorrow’s Spanish Cup match to avoid yet another clash at the hands of Guardiola and his squad.
Publicly, Mourinho has retaliated and seems to be holding up despite full support from his fanbase. “I’m not bothered by the whistles at me,” Mourinho said after his win over Bilbao.
“It’s not a problem. It’s the first time it’s ever happened to me. There’s a first time for practically everything…but there may come a day when the fans are sad.”

Leo Messi “A third hat trick is very difficult”
Posted by Football Tickets Barcelona in blog, FC Barcelona, Media on Friday 4 November 2011
Two days after scoring his second hat trick in a row, the 13th of his career, and 200 goals as Barca Player – Leo Messi attended a promotional event for Adidas The world’s No. 1 does not reject any questions.
Is it true that you and Villa are not speaking, as published Superdeporte?
This was a surprise for us, this news. I dont know where it came out. The Guaje and I get along very well, as with other colleagues, both inside and outside the locker room. There is nothing to say about that because we dont know anything, and does not worry us.
What did you make of the interpretations of criticism you received for not scoring in three games?
I neither know nor do I care if I wanted to annoy criticizers.
You have always professed undying love for Barça. What would happen if you were to go away from here?
For money I will never leave Barca never. I would go if the club wants me again that my performance was not the mismoo the club or people doubted me, but otherwise I do not look outside.
