You know it will probably take the introduction of a trini footballer to spark interest in la liga ...... lets say a young TT footballer to a club like Villareal perhaps ::) until that happens then the board will be dominated by EPL and even the lower leagues in England and Scotland.Of course many will miss the fact that the world's best players and teams play in La Liga, according to the stats, but we have no local interests there do we ?
In terms of excitement the EPL has a strong case but for attractive football I agree with you that La Liga leads the way.
Villareal , meanwhile has completed the second round double by beating both Real Madrid and Barcelona ...but not even the Barcelona fans noticed ... :angel:...

Looks like Riquelme's departure has not had any negative effects at Villareal.
Good for them.

Post by: dinho on April 23, 2007, 09:02:32 AM: i feel the waning la liga interest is because of CNC and dey shit...

We dont really get spanish football on cable again.. Not even a lil La Liga highlight show... And as for Italian football, i fed up now of switching on the tv to see the same few teams always playing.. Catania, Messina, Torino and Cagliari.. Only the worst games they showing...

So men must talk bout EPL only if that is all being fed.

La liga is still the best league.

Sevilla seem to suffer from nerves when on top and only seem to win when they are chasing Barca. Barca's away form in 2007 has been simply abysmal. They played Villareal off the park yetserday....I think Villareal had maybe four shots on goal...yet Barca lost that game 0-2. Barca learned the most cruel lesson in football. They made endless chances..but if you don't score :-\ Not sure what is wrong with them. Real Madrid could win the whole thing even though they are playing some dour football. But their away record is superb and that is why they are still in the hunt. It's close..it's exciting...but Lord is it frustrating. Top flight football at its best and worst. The 4th place race with Valencia, Zaragoza and Atletico is...The way things going, they could sneak into the title race too

But to me that's what makes La Liga so exciting and the fact that you've got so many teams chasing the title, shows superior quality of the football and the greater level of competition (not trying to turn it into an EPL vs La Liga debate). Ah does rate Barca, but Real is muh first team and even though ah want them to get rid of Capello, ah still backing them for the League title. Hala Madrid!

I think you made a good case here to illustrate the quality of La liga. The fact that the top teams cant take it easy is testimony to that fact. You were a little hard on Sevilla who, unlike the others, still have European committments. It is not easy to play both competitions, especially when at this stage you cant take chances and rest your top players. Top flight football at its best shows the willingness of the lesser teams to fight the big guns. THe fact that Real or barca loses is evidence that the league is strong were it not so then Scotland would have a claim to have the best league in Europe as their top 2 probably have the best record in any league in the world.

that is a good point for the last month or so, but Sevilla has gone top of La Liga and and missed out on chances to pull away from Barca on a few occasions, long before Barca, Madrid and most recently Valencia were knocked out of Europe. I am not just describing their recent form. This merry yoyo dance at the top of La Liga has been going on for months. I understand how European football may affect them more as they don't have the depth of a Barca...but in theory they also aren't playing against the same quality of teams as Barca in Europe. So I can't really use Europe as an excuse until very recently.

La Liga going to be heart-attack down to the wire...plus it looking like a Sevilla - Barca Copa Del Rey final...although given Barca's away form..you cyah count them in the final yet

freakazoid and Small Mag,

I do not exclusively support any club. I said I am a barca fan in this thread but they are just one of MANY.

I am not a diehard fan of any one club.

This stance helps me appreciate the different leagues and teams that world football has to offer in a more fulfilling way.

A couple of my friends are diehards of particular teams, and as such, their respective views on football are quite limited, if not biased. This is fine for some but not for me.

Check this thread for what I mean:

Post by: Jah Gol on April 24, 2007, 05:47:41 AM: I am a hard core La Liga supporter. I said in an another thread that this year belong to the EPL team ( that much is not really disputable) but Spain maintains a high quality of play from top to bottom. Its just a very competitive league with a lot of quality. Villareal's form has waned tremendously this season but watch any of their games and you'd see the quality they possess. When Barca beat them earlier this season (when Ronnie scored the outragous Bicycle kick) ,Villareal actually had a decent game but just couldn't match Barca's class at the Nou Camp.

It is still the best football to watch IMV.

Barca will still take the league and cup.

I worried for Barca. Their away form has been abysmal in 2007. 4 points in 4 months of football...it's one of the reasons we even talking about a title race. Plus they playing Atletico Madrid away...the one team that has had their number for the past 3 years....home and away. I hoping they could pull it of but poor away form and only managing to scrape 1-0 wins in their last 2 home games means Barca is clearly not in top form. Madrid and Sevilla have tougher fixtures...but Barca inability to win on the road in 2007, means that this is most likely going down to the wire for true.

Barca all the way!

I kinda agree....

but for Barca... that Atletico game and dat last game of the season game against Nastic is worries... with their away form.... hmmm

de problem for Madrid is that they probably have to WIN all their remaining games and dat... in any other season would still be a tall order...

Sevilla if they could see off Madrid next week can take that momenutm forward but they too have a nasty 3 game run in at the end...

But with all dat ah still watcing dat Atletico game and especially dat Nastic game for Barca... allyuh realize dey scrape against Getafe this weekend... if it come down to that Nastic game... ah know real "maletin" going and pass....
All Barca fans really ent want dat to come down to the wire at all at all

I eh go lie..it will be very ironic if Real Madrid loses at home to the other team from Barcelona. Espanyol resting plenty of their top players too. No De La Pena, no Raul Tamudo, no Zabaleta. Usually I would want Real to blow this side out the water. But is crunch time and Barca needs all the help it could get ;D
Anyway..game far from over. Real Madrid could more than come back from this. This game definitely have more goals..if Real Madrid score the next goal..they will go on to win. Espanyol lucky that the Uruguayan have his scoring boots on today. When is the last time anybodys score a first half hattrick against Madrid.

Ruud on fire...every game is goals
Real missing Robinho.

Real Madrid is on top because of superior head to head with Barca.
Real away to Recre next week. Real could win that given their strong away from, but it will be difficult. Recre still playing for a spot in the UEFA Cup.
Barca away to Atletico Madrid. Usually, that is straight licks for Barca even when Barca playing well :'( The 'logic' of football means, now that Barca purging, they actually have a chance ;D
Sevilla away to Depor. If Madrid and Barca lose, Sevilla can go back top with a win. They will be going all out. I backing Sevilla here altho' Depor is a decent enough outfit.
Valencia away to Mallorca..I betting Valencia wins this one.

La Liga is just too tight to call. On form, Real Madrid looking like they could take it, but they have a difficult final four games.
Barca in trouble, but they have too much quality in the squad to write off...plus...daiz meh team :devil:
Sevilla could be top of the table next week..who knows.
Valencia still in the hunt..only 4 points off the top...

Lewwe see how this drama shaping up next Sunday.

EL QUE NO SALTA

Title: Re: The race for La Liga title is on!!
Post by: Observer on May 14, 2007, 08:22:23 AM: I like how things shaping up. It must be very difficult to keep a team like Barca motivated, simply because of their achievements over the last few years. Sevilla & Real are hungry for some success and Real in particular look as though they have the bit between their teeth. Though they still look like a poor team defensively. That is not to say Barca defending any better. I suspect Rjkaard will stop rotating now and play a settled line up and simply lock down the league. Sevilla looks a very balanced side but they still battling on several fronts. That being said several membes of that squad can score goals and they are arguably the quickest team in th league.
No one talking about Valencia in the race, yet they could make a late run for it. Lately they have not been scoring with consistency, depending a one or two individuals and that could hamper them.
Great run for the tape, I love it. My money on Sevilla they play with a passion I enjoy

Valencia is definitely in the running. I made sure to mention them. Only problem is that they almost as bad as Barca on the road. 4 horse race for sure. La liga is dramas..I've been following Portugal as well. Most here don't, but that league has one game to go with Porto on top, Sporting 1 point behind and Benfica a further point behind Sporting. Good drama there...backing Barca and Benfica. So far things not quite going to plan. ;D ;D But it ain't over til it's over

Gone in 60 seconds: Barcelona's title hopes
Goals for Real Madrid and against Barcelona in the 89th minute of week 34 have turned the La Liga title race on its head.
Sid LoweMay 14, 2007 4:32 PM
A lot can happen in 60 seconds. Nicolas Cage can steal your car. Gary Barlow can steal your heart. And Real Madrid can steal your title, leaving you a quivering, empty-handed, teary-eyed wreck, half the man you used to be.

Just ask cowering Carles Puyol, the footballer whose terrified, defeated face is plastered across the covers of this morning's papers, from La Vanguardia to Sport and AS to El Periódico. Gone is the fearless Captain Caveman of yore; instead Puyol looks up at Frank Rijkaard, sheer panic in his eyes as if he's just discovered the coach clinging to him is not a mild-mannered Dutchman after all but a flesh-eating zombie who hasn't had a decent meal in weeks. Hardly surprising, really, because sixty seconds - sixty measly seconds! - could have cost FC Barcelona the league title and Puyol knows it.

Never mind, pedants, that Madrid and Barça actually played 24 hours apart, the title race has turned on a solitary minute: the 89th of the 34th week of the La Liga season - a minute that, as Rijkaard admitted, left Barça "banging our heads against the wall."

Jornada 34, minute 89, and Madrid are drawing 3-3 with Espanyol, Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Raúl and Jose Antonio Reyes having hauled back a brilliant Walter Pandiani hat-trick. Jornada 34, minute 89, and Barcelona are winning 1-0 against Real Betis, Ronaldinho having scored an early penalty. Barça are four points clear at the top of the table, with just four games to go and Madrid are third, four points adrift, their challenge over. But then something happens: Madrid score. And so do Betis. Gonzalo Higuaín bursts through at the Bernabéu: 4-3! Rafael Sobis bursts through at the Camp Nou, 1-1! One minute, two goals, four points and half a title.

All of a sudden Real Madrid are top for the first time since October 2005 and on course for a first trophy in four years; all of a sudden Barcelona, knocked out of the Copa del Rey after being obliterated by Getafe, abused by their fans and mocked by opponents, are on the verge of dropping out of the title race too. It's crisis time in Catalunya and the hankies are out at the Camp Nou.

That might sound like an exaggeration, considering Madrid and Barça are level on 66 points, separated only by their head-to-head record, that Sevilla lurk just two points further back, and that there are still four matches remaining. But much as this weekend's turnaround was dramatic it also felt definitive because, while it was unexpected, at the same time there was something deeply predictable about it - a sense that it was merely the confirmation of a deeper trend. Rarely has a single minute so perfectly portrayed and perpetuated two teams' state of mind. Somehow you knew Madrid would get the winner, and somehow you knew that Barça would get caught. More to the point, physically exhausted, psychologically vulnerable, tactically shambolic, and deeply divided, somehow Barça knew it too.

All season, Barcelona have let their rivals off the hook; all season, Madrid have been let off the hook. While the failure to kill off opponents eats away at Barcelona's confidence, the failure of opponents to kill them off has boosted Madrid's. Even before they were top, there was euphoria in Castilla and panic in Catalunya as Barça looked desperately, nervously over their shoulder like a terrified businessman on the escalator at Tottenham Court Road. AS's marvellously tasteful invention, the Barça crapping-yourself-ometer, has been rocketing off the top of the scale (or perhaps seeping out the back of it). Today, gloated Catalan-bashing Tomás Guasch, "it's up to 450 crapahertz!"

You can certainly smell the fear, each game reinforcing a feeling of impeding doom at Camp Nou. If, as Jorge Valdano famously put it, football is a state of mind, Barcelona are sunk and Madrid are flying. A flying shit on a stick perhaps, but flying nonetheless. Forget the football: just look at the momentum, the conviction, and the results. Just look at this weekend: Madrid rode their luck but also showed the same spirit, determination, belief, effectiveness and fitness that has led to them winnning eight of the last nine since the 3-3 draw in the Camp Nou derby, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat to the backdrop of a roaring stadium. Barcelona had no luck but also showed the same lack of spirit, determination, belief, effectiveness and fitness that has led to them winning just three of their last six - and only just win those - snatching a draw which might as well have been a defeat from the jaws of victory to the backdrop of a murmuring, irritable stadium.

As usual, Barça dominated possession, creating chance after chance but didn't take advantage. They could have been five up at half time, but only scored one and with every minute that passed they grew more and more nervous, more aware of the risk of the threat closing in. "So, the wolf got to Barça's door," one columnist wrote, but the tragedy was he didn't even have to huff or puff for Barça to welcome him in. Yet again Barça did not so much shoot themselves in the foot as blow their entire sodding leg off with a blunderbuss. With a minute to go, and with Rijkaard having taken off Lionel Messi and Ronaldinho to "protect" the lead (like Barça know how to do that) they conceded a free kick, turned their backs, strolled away and still managed to look surprised when Sobis ran through unchallenged to score, changing everything.

No wonder they're going mental in Madrid and crazy in Catalunya, Marca screaming "It's real!" and AS jeering "Barça sink, Madrid are leaders!". Meanwhile, Sport sent out a gigantic yellow "SOS", but you can't help feeling it's too late. Fatalism hangs over the Camp Nou and the league is no longer in Barça's hands. Somehow, it's in Madrid's. Faith may not move mountains, but it can win titles.

Results:

Real Madrid 4 - 3 Espanyol, Sevilla 2 - 1 Recreativo, Getafe 1 - 4 Atlético, Nastic 1 - 3 Real Sociedad, Celta 1 - 2 Levante, Osasuna 1 - 4 Villarreal, Racing 0 - 2 Mallorca, Athletic 1 - 1 Deportivo, Barcelona 1 - 1 Betis, Valencia 2 - 0 Zaragoza.

Title run-in:

Madrid (66 points): Recre (A), Depor (H), Zaragoza (A), Mallorca (H)
Barcelona (66 points): Atlético (A), Getafe (H), Espanyol (H), Nastic (A)
Sevilla (64 points): Depor (A), Zaragoza (H), Mallorca (A), Villarreal (H)

If all three teams finish tied at the top, Madrid will be champions.
If Madrid and Barcelona finish tied at the top, Madrid will be champions.
If Madrid and Sevilla finish tied at the top, it would go to goal difference and Sevilla currently have +27 to Madrid's +21.
If Barcelona and Sevilla finish tied at the top, Barcelona will be champions.

I could ask the same of Espanyol when they played against Madrid with a B side and then take off their next 3 best players in the 2nd half (including Pandiani wh scored a hattrick) ;)

Atletico is only 1 point ahead of Villareal for the final UEFA Cup spot. Nobody eh selling nothing. Atletico playing their substitute goalie and he looking a lil' green..He was clealry at fault for 2 of the goals.

I have to give Real Madrid credit for their ability to win games that they shouldn't....while Barca contrives to lose games that they should win. It's the biggest difference between the two since January and what has the season so tight at this point. La Liga is it..

Common Barca!

So is how much offside goal Barca go geh so?

doh whine...dat first goal was marginally offside if at all. Ray eye kinda cokey..and they score 5 more, so no excuses. Plus Maxi Rodriguez shoulda collect a straight red for that tackle on Iniesta. The Kings eh ready to give up the throne yet ;D

Toppa..every side does get a break now and den. You doh tink Real get score some offside goal this season..What about Real Madrid pulling strings so Beckham could play against Sevilla when he got a yellow card the week before that meant he should have been suspended. All referees in Spain protested this week by refusing to hand in last week's yellow cards to the league to allow all suspended players to play this weekend. As the Capital club, Real Madrid has a reputation of getting more breaks than anyone in Spain. You ahve to ask yourself how many other teams have the 'political' clout to get a suspended player's card rescinded so he could help them win a top of the table clash the following week ;)

Good weekend for everyone...nothing has changes except we one game closer to the finish...

Big weekend again next rounds..I will catch allyuh laterzzzz

Post by: Toppa on May 22, 2007, 08:44:34 PM: Black Bag Fever Dividing Spain (Clubs paying other clubs to beat their rivals e.g. Barca offering Deportivo money if they beat Real - a lil "incentive")

As La Liga reaches the final three matches with the title still wide open the familiar phenomenon of what’s become known as 'Black Bag Fever' is starting to break out across the Iberian peninsula…
The concept is very simple: behind-the-scenes execs from one club offer another club some under-the-table money to another club.
The image is clearly one of a black bag being passed from hand to hand and thus the word 'Maletín' (literally small case or briefcase) is short for a cash payment offered in return for a win.
This could be seen as a damnable if the cash is offered in return for throwing a match, but the jury is still out on how cash offered as an incentive to win is moral, immoral – or just amoral.
After all, if that is the case then every single non-amateur player and club exec is guilty as they receive payment in order to win matches – a clearly ludicrous situation.
Then again, others will point out that these payments are designed to deliberately sabotage other clubs by spurring outside players to raise their performance to down a rival.
A third group would just shrug shoulders and say "¿Y Que?" ("So What?"). They may exist, they may not, but they really shouldn’t be a cause for bedwetting paranoia.
The issue is a perennial one and many players are now voicing their opinions on the subject as the race comes down to the wire and the conditions for 'Black Bag Fever' reach the perfect setting: a situation where a win or loss can dictate the championship winner – and losers.
Getafe man Javier Casquero will face FC Barcelona next round as admitted the system does exist and that there is no shame in accepting payment for something that would be done anyway.
"Right now theres been nothing mentioned, but if there is an offer from outside for us to win, which we will try to do anyway, it’s definitely welcome. We may already be qualified for the UEFA Cup but we always play to win – it’s about honour", he stressed. In that case, the theory goes that a low-ranking member of the Real Madrid hierarchy will contact an opposite number at Getafe and make an offer to be communicated to the players before the match – a certain amount payable in the event of a win. Getafe Full-back Javier Paredes thought that perhaps the best thing for all concerned would be to legalise these type of payments. "I feel that these payments should be legal – if your club pays you to win as well there cannot be a problem", he explained."However, to be paid to lose is a different kettle of fish. Professional players have victory in their blood, even in a game of beach tennis, so we always play to win", he added, echoing a sentiment held by many players in Spain.Team-mate Mario Cotelo coaxed a giggle or two out of the assembled reporters at the Getafe press conference by pointing out that the 'Maletínes' "are like Bin Laden; everybody knows they exist but nobody can see them. This is a subject that always comes up when theres a tough finish to the Liga", going on to fit in with the others in a blanket denial that they had been offered anything. One of the key characteristics of a 'Maletín' is that people may give their thumbs up – but never openly admitting to receiving a red cent. Deportivo de la Coruña midfielder Joan Verdú also spoke out in an interview with Spanish radio station COM Ràdio. Verdú, who signed for the Galician side after graduating from the Barcelona B academy, was also in favour of positive payments.
"The team will do everything that we can to win against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu, theres no need for bonuses to guarantee that much, but I’m in favour of anything that encourages you to win and that is legal, so my phone is on in case I get a call from Barcelona", he quipped.
FC Barcelona star Lionel Messi simply didn’t see the need to offer this sort of financial incentive to professional players who are already well-paid. "They [the next three rivals to face Real Madrid] don’t need extra encouragement", he commented." The fact that reputations are at stake means that people will still play to win no matter if they receive a bit on the side. Therefore I really don’t se the need to offer bonuses to third parties. We just need to do what we can and see how things pan out at the end." Good, bad or just neutral, the 'Maletín' is bound to be mentioned in the wake of a number of results that will occur this weekend, but mostly just as a scapegoat. Some clubs will cry blue murder and wave fists and legal writs at others, but to no avail. That’s for sure. The only uncertain point is if these payments really do make a difference…and if the club that benefits can rest on the laurels of a guilt-free title.

Depor looking good in spurts, but all in all Madrid have this game under control. RM looking very good in the center of the midfield and Robinho, Becks and V Nistelroy all look lively but the defense letting Depor rattle them now and then...

the only man wearing goggles is you. even the commentators eventually noticed, but they were right..doesn't matter. They replayed the perfect angle and paused the ball on Ruud hands. You hadda be kidding. Why you think 2 minutes after the goal they repeatedly kept showing a slow motion and pausing the ball on Ruud hands. FF come nah man..In any case..Real Madrid deserved to win and won easily.

Barca's game was magnificent. Great 1-0 victory to stay in the hunt. Ronnie reacted poorly and deserved the red. Big players get kicked...he should have known better. But Barca responded with grit and style...could have scored a few early in the 2nd half. At the end it was just defending for dear life. Big win. If Zaragoza salt Sevilla tomorrow it's down to just the big two. No matter what, Valencia's season is over.

FF...doh dig no horrors..but I recommend you watch the replay again. GolTV pause the replay with the ball exactly on Ruud hand, in the first half, at the interval and during the 2nd half. I think you have on some Merengue goggles ;D

http://soccernet.espn.go.com/report?id=204128&cc=5901

The Depor players were furious, with Van Nistelrooy looking to have handled the ball in the lead-up to the goal, but the referee waved away their protests.

Title: Rijkaard Mashes Schuster's "Kicking" Tactics
Post by: Jah Gol on May 27, 2007, 01:53:51 PM: Frank Rijkaard was furious after the physical treatment his team received in their win against Getafe on Saturday evening and blamed Bernd Schuster for sending out his team to kick his players.
The Dutch coach said that he was upset with the German's attitude before the game and highlighted the aggressive manner in which the visitors played.

Barça were reduced to ten men when Ronaldinho kicked out after being fouled by David Belenguer and was angered that his team were punished while Getafe were left alone.

"You could see the mentality and the desire was that of their coach," Rijkaard said.

"He talked about kicking people before the game even started. His attitude could have had an effect on what went on out there. From the first minute onwards he was complaining.

"He would need to win 10 or 20 cups playing like that for me to agree with his way of doing things."

After opening the scoring after two minutes, Ronaldinho was then sent off just before half time and showed his frustration as he left the pitch.

"We saw that Ronaldinho was very affected by it all when he was leaving the field," Rijkaard continued.

"When a player is kicked a lot during a game, there comes a moment when you are annoyed after one particular tackle. All I can say is that it is a shame for the way we play, which is to create and focus on attacking in the opposition half, when we commit one error and a card is shown to a player to have him sent off.

"It surprised me because we do not have a team that is dirty. Our idea is to move the ball quickly and to keep possession. We should act more like the Getafe players maybe and when there is minimal contact we should throw ourselves about, shout out and call for cards.

"When my players go over they get up quickly because they know about football."

After playing for 50 minutes with a player less, Barça garnered all three points and Rijkaard was delighted.

"We had to work very hard to complete our task with ten players," he said. "But they were only able to create things near the end, when we were tired."

Schuster himself had been equally angered by what he had seen and criticised the referee, Alfonso Pérez Burrull, for his display.

"The bigger team has been favoured, just like always," he said, before focussing on a penalty that he believes should have been awarded when Belenguer went down in the area.

"To not blow for that was horrendous, but we are used to it now. When the bigger teams are playing for something they always have things go their way that little bit more."

The visitors' trainer believed that his side were well behaved and that they played extremely well.

"We have been better than Barça and took them on head-to-head and the percentage of possession was very even," he had continued. My team were outstanding and the only bad thing is that we could not find a way to goal. There was nothing more we could have done."

After hearing Schuster's words, Rijkaard responded uncharacteristically as he jibed: "If that was lesson in football, I'd quite happily take one of those every Sunday."

Post by: Jah Gol on May 30, 2007, 12:05:34 PM: Barcelona’s Ronaldinho Banned For Nou Camp Clash With Espanyol, Available For Final La Liga Game Against Gimnastic

Barcelona will be without Brazilian star Ronaldinho for their next La Liga match, which is at Nou Camp against local rivals Espanyol this weekend, in what could be a blow to their chances of retaining the Spanish title. However, the punishment of missing just one match is also a relief to the defending champions.

27-year-old Ronaldinho will be available for the final match of the season against relegated Gimnastic Tarragona.

Ronaldinho, who is currently the fourth-highest goal-scorer in La Liga with 20 league goals, had been sent off against Getafe last weekend for kicking out at defender David Belenguer, after the attacker had been at the receiving end of cynical challenges for most of the match and was deemed to have been provoked by the Spanish Federation's Disciplinary Committee.

The Catalans and Real Madrid have same number of points with two games remaining but the latter are on the top of the table due to better head-to-head record. Any slip-up for Frank Rijkaard’s side coupled with victory for Real is likely to decide the fate of the title in the remaining outings.

Post by: Toppa on June 07, 2007, 07:30:45 PM: Look allyuh boy backing Madrid to win de title.

"Real Madrid will win the League because they deserve it"

Leo Beenhakker analysed this last stretch of the League and the thrilling Zaragoza-Real Madrid face-off. He's quite the authority in the matter. He trained Real Madrid and Zaragoza for the space of four seasons each, and with the Whites he ended up winning three La Liga titles. Precisely in his first League, he lived the same exact situation as the Merengues will experience on Saturday, playing the penultimate game in Zaragoza with the Aragonese trying to assure a UEFA position and Real Madrid the League. The result back then was 3-1 for the Madridistas. He follows Spanish football “very closely” from his native country of The Netherlands. “I am absolutely convinced that Real Madrid will be the League champions,” confessed the former Madrid coach via telephone.
Same story all over again but twenty years later. Do you remember the 1987 game?
I remember it as if it were yesterday. It was my first season training Real Madrid and I was going back to Zaragoza to face the team I had coached two years back. We won 3-1 and then became League champions in a tough competition just after the World Cup. It was a very special encounter for me.
Saturday is like a replay, right?
Yes, it's a very similar situation. We were up against the opportunity of winning the title there and we took advantage of it. It was very special for me because it was my first title in my first year with Real Madrid. I think that the team managed by Fabio Capello has the same chance now.

Traditionally, Real Madrid have fared well at La Romareda. How do you think they will do on Saturday?
Yes, that's what history says, but we can't forget that Saturday's match is a final for both teams. Zaragoza are very strong at home, but the quality of the squad of Real Madrid and of its coach will surely spice things up. I think that Madrid are technically and physically capable of winning this game and the League title.

What is your opinion about the season of Real Madrid, especially during the last third of the championship?
It's been great. From the outside, through the eyes of the press and the TV sations, I know they've had a difficult year. I think many elements have factored in for this recovery. First of all, President Ramón Calderón and the Board of Directors have reiterated their confidence in Fabio Capello, which has proved crucial. Fabio is one of the great masters of modern football. Then, we need to take into account the huge amounts of pressure that Real Madrid are always under. They're just sticking their neck out from a very difficult few years. I am proud of how things are looking at the moment. Everyone reacted really well and, once again, Real Madrid has proved that it's a great Club, with strong-willed people who are doing what they have to do: play well and fight for success. The difficulties the Club came up against made the President, directors, squad, and fans join efforts. They've done real well and they deserve a 10.

Does this last stretch of the League, with three teams with title-winning options, increase the standing of Spanish football?
These endings are good for football in general. We lived this situation here in The Netherlands, where the championship wasn't decided until the very last week. The same thing happended in Germany, with three title contenders until the last matchday. This just comes to prove that football in general is a great spectacle, especially for the diehard fans and all other groups surrounding the sport. This is the greatness of football.

I can't end this interview without asking you to please make a prediction.
You know well enough that it's very hard to make predictions in football, but in this instance I can't forget my latent Madridismo. Training Real Madrid was the most important thing I've done in my professional coaching career. Still, I'll try to take feelings out of the equation. I think that the strength of spirit displayed by the Whites in this last patch of the League will make then win the title. Moreover, they deserve it. So, in this sense, I am absolutely convinced that Real Madrid will be the League champions.

I disagree (not because Real's ontop because of it). I think that if the title is down to two teams who are tied at the top, then it should be between them to decide who should be crowned champions - no results against other teams should matter. Clearly those two teams are at the top because of their own merits so it's more just to only consider their head-to-head to indicate which side is superior between the two of them.

Allyuh good...no doubt. I doh like de idea of buying titles. Same reason I find it hard to root fuh Chelsea, de Yankees or the Cowboys in American Football. Your wallet ideally shouldn't be the difference where you can afford to stockpile all the good players...some of whom remain buried on the bench...doing nothing for you, the league or the sport, when they could be helping other teams.

Is it Madrid's fault they have money and willing to spend it? Of course not. But still doh mean I have to like it.

Capello is an arrogant prick and his handling of Beckham was absolutely disrespectful. More power to Real though...one doesn't have to like them, but they keep getting it done.

Honesty though..madird didn't win the title becasue of having the best players..it was a team effort. Man for man I think Barca is a deeper, more talented squad on paper

Post by: jai john on June 17, 2007, 06:32:45 PM: Congrats to the Real madrid faithful...sure didn´t look like they would win it early in the season. I am also celebrating our( Villareal´s , as if i needed to say ) re-entry into Europe next season and joining Real madrid and Barcelona as the only teams in La liga history to win 8 consecutive games in La liga.
Numered among our exploits this season is the distinction of having beaten the top 4 teams in la liga this year in the second round. Add to that Boca´s 3-0 first leg victory, Riquelme´s imperious form this half of the season and ...I am jumpimg up to de ceiling...what ah wonderful feeling .....
Good football prevails !
Sorry Epl fans ...La liga provides the thrills down to the very end ....
Just hoping Riquelme stays with Boca long enough to play against AC Milan in the Intercontinental Cup...not likelly though ... just remembered seeing he and Palermo rip Real madrid, the champs of Europe, apart in an earlier version....
Congrats to Real fans again ....for a well desreved hard fought, ungalatico but effective performance...you can trust the Italians to just get it done without much fanfare ...just like in the world Cup.

My comments pertain to the fact that they've dominated Spanish football for as long as anyone can remember. Good gate receipts, TV rights, merchandising and titles over the years have meant prosperity for the team. In a classic case of the rich getting richer they were able to up the ante using their financial disadvantage. For most of the past 100 years Spanish football has been Real vs. Barcelona...so Barca has been prosperous as well...while smaller clubs like a Seville, like Valencia...dem ketching dey nen nen to attract talent b/c they can't compete with the big boys.

Everything I just said about Madrid can also be said about the New York Yankees (yes another baseball reference, lol)... and what sticks in my craw so much is when you see talented players buried on the bench...it just seems wasteful and even gluttonous, buying more talent than you can use. Look at Chelsea, man like Sean Wright-Phillips can't even get on the pitch.

but anyways...I ent trying to rain on their parade.

Post by: kicker on June 17, 2007, 08:23:39 PM: VIVA MADRID !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched the game by Filho, and I hadda admit I felt bad celebrating as Filho is a big Barca man and I knew he was feelin' it....but boy, I couldn't control myself...one of the most, if not the most dramatic climax to a seaon finale I could imagine....

I still think that Barca is the best team in Spain on paper, but Rijkaard didn't make the best decisions this year, and some of their key players didn't have the best of seasons....In the end, Madrid was coached in typical Capello fashion to grind out victories...and their away form this year won it for them...They were a team on a mission down the final stretch, and just could not be beat....

I was never a fan of Capello, but he's a proven winner and he deserves all the praise that he gets for his triumph this season.

MADRID 2006/7 !!!! La Liga title is back home where it belongs

El que no salta es Blaugrana..... :beermug:

Post by: Grande on June 18, 2007, 08:13:41 PM: yes Madrid congratulations. An era has ended (galactico) and perhaps another has begun.

All the top teams in La Liga should be very proud of themselves.
