Arrival At Villareal & Starting Line Up

The team, including birthday boy Pepe, made the short trip to Villareal for today’s match.

New Year & Holiday Fun

Hope everyone had a lovely New Year’s Eve and have been enjoying the day today. As promised, a bumper crop of what various ‘ballers have been doing on their holidays. There have been engagements, baby announcements, singing in the mirror while dressed in a towel (Cristiano), blue gradient shoes (Sergio), celebrating on a camel (Mateo & Lukita) and a rather ungracious joke about a rival (Toni Kroos, being a bit rude, IMHO).  Let’s dig in! (It’s long so be prepared!)

Back To Madrid, Accolades & Families

The team returned to Madrid after Wednesday’s win over Bayern Munich arriving home on Thursday. The game was fun but exhausted (the trip back seemed to take forever). Mygypsyspirit and I spent the following day recovering and hanging out. She left today so I’m getting back to work on things with a very quick catch up. 

Ready For Deportivo

Boy is it hard to talk about training and the last game of the season after what happened earlier but here it is anyways – a quick rundown.

The FInal Final Pre-Sevilla Session & Happy Papi’s Day

Okay, the mothership was full of shit yesterday. Today was the final training session. Sigh.

Sunday Recovery Session & Love Is All Around

The team had a recovery session today. The starters stayed indoors with the exception of Toni came out for a bit of a run.

Okay, the universe obviously hates me. Zoolander came to the Bernabeu but THE TEAM WASN”T THERE! WTF, WORLD?!

Pepe Extends Contract Until 2017

Pepe extended his contract until 2017 today. He did all the sign-y stuff with FloPeezy (Video) and was presented with a watch and a jersey (and I am assuming, a raise).

G-Money Returns, Halloweeny & Color Me Shocked! (NOT)

“Oh shiz! Gareth is back. How are you going to break it to James?!”

It’s been quite a weekend! We handily won our match and now sit atop the table. Huzzah!  And Gareth rejoined the group today, which is great news. The 6 outfield players who didn’t start worked out with Gareth while Marcelo & Cris trained on their own. We have a Champions League match against Liverpool on Tuesday.
