Real Madrid on Fire this Season
0March 5, 2012 by Mike Bruski
Real Madrid are on course to break 3 major all time records this year, some even by a big margin. All while Mourinho just became the fastest La Liga coach ever to win 50 league games, and Cristiano Ronaldo is on track to better his record breaking goal tally from last season.
When José Mourinho was appointed manager of Real Madrid in June 2010, he stated that his teams are always better in his second season. It appears he was right, because his Real Madrid is currently the runaway leader of La Liga, and on course to break 3 major historical records.

As we can see from the above table, Real Madrid are top of La Liga with a goal difference of +59 and Barcelona are second with a GD of +52. The team with the next highest goal difference is third-placed Valencia with a GD of +8. Moreover, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi are leading the goal scoring chart with 29 and 28 goals respectively. It is interesting to note that 12 La Liga clubs (highlighted in yellow) haven’t managed to score as much goals as either players.What more can be said? The numbers speak for themselves, Real Madrid and Barcelona are far ahead of the competition.

Goal Review: Messi’s 4th goal vs Valencia
0February 23, 2012 by Rami El Chamaa
This goal, scored by Messi in match day 24 of La Liga, defines Barcelona’s tactics and style of play. Observe Alexis Sanchez carefully throughout the video; he steals the ball away from the Valencia player, spins away from him at at lightning speed and passes the ball to Busquets. Sanchez then attracts the center back with his run, this opens the path for a perfect through ball from Busquets which falls to Messi who then lobs the goalkeeper. What a goal!!!

Barca Youth: Isaac Cuenca
0February 23, 2012 by Rami El Chamaa
If FC Barcelona is known for one thing it would be for their excellent youth system. As we all know, La Masia training camp is one of the most successful youth academies in the world. It trained the likes of Lionel Messi, Cesc Fabregas, Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez, Pedro Rodriguez, and Carles Puyol. In 2010, all three of the Ballon d’Or finalists were La Masia products (Iniesta, Xavi and Messi) . It’s insane if you think about it, all those names speak for themselves. What more could you ask for?
