Oh! Hi there, Germany! Can you repeat this shirtless pose when the Bayern boys arrive tomorrow? Much appreciated!
Poldi was the press conference spokesmodel, charming all and sundry as usual, posing with bebes and picturesque scenery.
Meanwhile, France did their best to make us drool offering up Karim and Olivier Giroud. Magnifique!
I love Karim casually toting his iPhone and an Evian bottle while Olivier can work a pair of worn in jeans like nobody’s business (but what are those wildly patterned underoos I see peeking out there, young sir?)
Speaking of someone who can work in in jeans or undergarments, Cristiano was once again the focus of Portugal’s training shots.
Wrong sport, Hugo.
Portugal goes for the artsy shot again today.
Meanwhile, Pipita is back with the Argentinean National Team getting ready for their friendlies. He’s been reunitedwith bestie/longtime boo/former Blanco Ezequiel Garay (hope Albiol doesn’t see this piccy!)
Also in the pictures is teammate Angel Di Maria (oddly enough, standing in these pictures).
More butt shots are needed so that I can better assess (snerk) Pipita’s current state of mind.
If you are looking for a great shirt to celebrate our 32nd Liga, check this one out – it’s pretty ace, innit?

Of Headbands and Heartbreak... 
I NEED that shirt! I was so bummed after the Campeones shirts sold out 😦
I actually like this one better than the Campeones shirt.
i like it better than the campeones shirt, too! i just figured out how to order one in white, despite not speaking a word of spanish! :p
my new dream in life is to be one of these guys wifey
Did Yoann Gourcuff make it to the French NT?
Jelly, tve will air spain vs korea live on (may 31) thursday 1:45am and spain vs china on (june 4) monday 4am.. 😉
Yep, saw pix yesterday, but no good ones. Will try again today.
Wow, I’m surprised he got called up. It’s not a final list yet mind you, but a lovely surprise. It’s not been a good season for Yoann so I’m pleased he’s there. Also, he really just needs to transfer to Arsenal already.
Thank you, Mari! And if I recall, last year tve also aired the Copa del Rey final so I will check tonight (or at 4am tomorrow).
Thank you, Lozil. I haven’t seen my Gourcuff eye candy since the Champions League group stage. ::sigh::
OH! BTW, Altintop and Nuri scored goals in the friendly of Georgia v Turkey.
They will not air the copa del rey Live though, it will be at 5pm tomorrow. Last year, it was only delayed for an hour (maybe because it was a clasico).

Well 5pm our time actually works better for me. I’ll just have to stay offline until then — arghh! Thanks for the link, which I shall bookmark.
