CrispyKarim Train With The Team

The team had their first training session of the week and Cris & Karim joined the group.

Ready For Bayern

Sadly, work kept me from going to the training session yesterday. If anyone went, let me know how it was!

Surprises, Visitors & Fans

Five lucky fans had quite a surprise today. They thought they were winning one of the new kits, but they didn’t realize that they would also be meeting James, Marcelo, Keylor Navas, Lucas and Morata at the Adidas event. 

Golazos Then On To New York

Much better result versus Chelsea (although a bit too close of a score for my tastes) in Michigan!

 

Captain Marcelo scored a brace and got Man of the Match to boot! And Mariano scored a stonker. Three lovely goals!

The team then headed right for New York where they were greeted by the fans. I’m sure that the hotel guests just loved hearing someone outside their window at the JW Marriott Essex House yelling “JAMMMMMMMMMESSSSSSSS!” in the middle of the night.

And I can imagine that the some of the guests might have also been surprised to head to the gym for a workout only to find it occupied by Sese, Benz, Lukita, Llorente, Isco and the aforementioned JAMMMMMMMMMESSSSSSSS! I would be torn between slinking back to my room rather than work out next to world class athletes and pretending that I had dropped my earring and searching the entire gym for an hour or so, watching their every move. Luckily for them (and me), this is not a decision I will have to make.

The team has already started their siteseeing as they are posting shots from the Empire State Building.

Quick Friday Catch Up

Man, has it been a busy week. Between work and watching history happen before my eyes, I haven’t had much time to get posts up. I’ve been so out of it, I completely got the day of the PSG-RM game wrong and was all pissed when I couldn’t find a stream. Oh well. Perhaps not the result we would have wanted. Congratulations to Castilla Muppet Babies Febas, Mariano, Enzo and Achraf who made their first team debuts!

Ready For PSG

Doing a bit of catch up here. As I mentioned in last night’s driveby, Lukita, Sergio & James joined the team yesterday.

In Columbus

The team is now in Columbus where they will meet PSG on Thursday.

Final Training In Canada & More

This is a quickie post as I got home late from work and then got sucked into the DNC. Michelle Obama tore it up!

Anyhow, the team had their final training in Canada at the Saputo Stadium and 4,000 supporters got to watch.

Sunday In Montreal

The team completed their seventh day of training in Montreal. Damn, the time is going so fast!
