The big boys are coming for Girona - with baseball bats!

Before we begin, please grant me one Christmas wish. If you are enjoying these posts, please share them with one football fan in your life who might also enjoy them. I thank you. At this time of the season, the Champions League group stages were done and dusted and we went into the break with the Round of 16 locked down. Not any more. In today’s post, Pete Jenson and I tell you what we think about the new-look tournament structure as some big clubs face peril and some smaller participants are shell-shocked after a run of fixtures they would have NEVER have faced in the old format. Now it’s over to you. Please let me know in the comments what YOU think of the changes. This is a public episode.

I told you! Barcelona have a Lewandowski problem!

Happy Monday to you. I do hope you’re enjoying these video reports as much I as I am enjoying making them for you. If you are, please tell one football fan about them. I WANTED to talk to you about nothing other than Jesús Navas as Spain’s most trophied international footballer said goodbye to his beloved Sevilla. But oh, no. So before I get to him, let’s discuss the peaks and valleys of what’s turning into a wildly unpredictable Barcelona team. When they’re good, they’re very, very good. But when they’re bad, Robert Lewandowski is a passenger and they invent new ways to miss good chances. play the video. This is a public episode.

Atleti for the title? It's Groundhog Day all over again: the weekend in La Liga

These short video reports are produced for my new Substack, Revista de la Liga - video reports from around La Liga, posted directly to your email. Please [subscribe here] (https://revistadelaliga.substack.com/) and don't miss any of them... ...I hope you’re enjoying these reports on all aspects of Spanish football. I know 1993 was a long time ago but you’ve ALL seen Bill Murray starring in Groundhog Day. Despite tipping Atletico Madrid as title contenders in previous seasons and being brutally disappointed, I’ve nevertheless decided to stage my own Spanish Football Groundhog Day and mention them again, even in a conspiratorial whisper, as potential La Liga winners. This was a weekend with a sacking, a Jornada where the big two suffered completely different experiences, and one where the big Basque clubs each won. But the focus is Cholo Simeone, Antoine Griezmann, and the dashing, daring Simeone Jnr: here comes Groundhog Day (two months early), here come eleven goals in their last two games for Atleti. Enjoy This is a public episode.
