Mou’s message

23 May

Mou had a message for all the fans today and was apparently coerced by the now legendary Real Madrid photogs into striking football’s most hated pose…

From Realmadrid.com / Translation by Michael J. O’Donnell

“The season has come to an end and I would like to take this opportunity to thank all Real Madrid supporters for the affection and support they have shown for me, the coaching staff and the entire team this year. We’ve done a dedicated and serious job, but we obviously leave the analysis of the work this squad has done up to you.

We will return on 11 July with the same passion and motivation we’ve always had in order to keep trying to dignify the prestige and uncontested history of Real Madrid CF.

Finally, I would like to end with a very simple wish, which is that next season we recover certain values no one should ever forget, but that some professionals and institutions of the world of football have nonetheless forgotten. These values should be the basis of our sport. Fair play, respect for your opponent and zero tolerance to racism shouldn’t just be words, they should also be facts. I again stress my hope and wish to recover those fundamental principles in our sport next seaon.

Thank you for everything. We’ll see each other soon. We’ll be here on 11 July.”


Sigh. Jose, Jose, Jose – you just can’t let them tarnish your silver foxiness with the double thumbs up! Next they’ll have you gazing into a makeup mirror. Just say no.

    He doesn’t look anything like himself striking that pose. It’s like the double thumbs up comes with an automatic dopetastic smile. However, I’m glad Mou made the statement he did.
