You are a backup, find yourself a club: Madrid leave things evidently clear for Kaká. Modric reflects and returns to train with Tottenham.
Madrid to Kaká-Leave: the club confirm to the Brazilian that they don´t count on him and they transmit an offer from Corinthians. Kaká does not want to return to Brazil, he prefers Europe but he does not rule out the United States. The elevated price for the player is an obstacle for all the options. Modric slows his pulse: he returns to camp with Tottenham and trains by himself.
Debut of the Tito Team: this new Barça presents itself with Messi as captain and filled with youngsters. Vilanova: will rehearse his philosophy of play and variants that he will have in mind for the upcoming season. Delofeu, the last minute ¨signing": the future ¨crack¨ trained and entered the list.
Puyol Fan: the blaugrana center-back is a reference point for the very wanted Javi Martinez. The Barcelona captain gifted the entire Olympic team new watches in his name.
Opinion:
Is anyone tired of the Summer yet? I sure am. Hot and humid weather in Los Angeles, the car isn´t working and all these meaningless friendlies. It is almost over though. Ànims a tots. Let´s begin then:
As: Backup Kaká: who is surprised by this? The only thing that has kept him there is his contract. He has done nothing since coming over from Milan and the club is frankly tired of waiting for him to recover his ballon d´or form. Marca: Leave Kaká: where to then considering that the best option was Ancelotti´s PSG but that is completely out of the question now with Zlatan and Thiago. Is it really Milan? Berlusconi needs a fantasy signing to quell the rebellion but can Kaká adapt his game to age and physical limitations? The pace of Serie A is not where it used to be, where slow players go to recover their game.
Sport: Debut of Tito´s Team: people who think that Tito will be a duller more pragmatic Pep Guardiola are going to be disappointed. I think he was the innovator of the two and weĺl see Barcelona with some very distinct Tito wrinkles all year. The hints are there: he wants an attacking option on the left rather than an unbalanced extra defender to give them more width, and he wants another defensive midfielder/central defender to partner Masch and Buquets.
MD: Puyol Love: Javi Martinez is really into Puyi. Hell, if I were a pre-adolescent girl I´d like Tarzan´s Boy too, but why isn´t he trying to recapture his game as an all around box-to-box midfielder. There are some who can make the switch to defender easier, take Mascherano for one, but Javi Martinez is the closest thing I´ve seen to a young Gerrard in a long while. THe English game would be perfect for the young Basque. Why Barça? Why switch to center-back?
