Watishing Into (Thank F**k) 2021

Well, this year has been nothing but hell, so I thought I would choose a soothing picture of Fernando’s arse from back in the day. This is probably one of my all time fave Sernando pictures and we have bonus Chori & Xabi. Oh the good old days!

So where have I been, you may (or may not) have been asking? Well, it has been a hell of a saga…

End Of An Era: El Niño Retires

I’m feeling a bit weepy. Nando played his final match for Sagan Tosu against a Vissel Kobe side that featured two of his closest friends, Andres Iniesta and David Villa.

Prep Begins For El Derbi Madrileño

Mr. 92:48 – Destroyer of Atleti’s Dreams

The team began preparing today for El Derbi Madrileño aka our big crosstown rivalry/Sernando reunion.

Last Training Session Of The Week

Secretly pretending the ball is Nando. Obvs.

The last training of the week followed the same pattern. The Baby and Fabio worked out alone outdoors while Pepe & Benz stayed in the gym. I feel like a broken record. But take a gander at all the delicious training legs on view.

Match Recap: Copa del Rey – Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid

After losing 2-0 to Atleti at the Calderon, it was time to move across town to get that remontada going!

“You need a Tic Tac”

I don’t normally enjoy facing Atleti. I dread it about as much as I dread facing Barcelona. The bright spot to my nervous twitch was the prospect of some epic bromancing in the form of Sernando.

It’s Official: Nando Returns To Atleti

The rumors have been confirmed by the man himself. After 7 1/2 long years, Nando is heading home. AC Milan has loaned him to Atleti until the end of the 2015-2016 season.

Off To Dubai!

The team took off this evening for Dubai where they will play AC Milan on Tuesday. A bit of bummer news though…

Training Catch Up, Arrival In Sofia & A Sernando Reunion To Look Forward To!

Thumbs up in stereo

Well, the week has flown by and the team is already in Sofia (for the first time in 35 years)! I’ve been in the midst of a couple of work-related all nighters with a couple of more to come so I’m going to try to get a bunch of posts up tonight (the watishista correspondents have been taking up the slack and producing some goodies).  So this is a very quick and dirty catch up.

World Cup 2014: The Sernando Love Train Rolls On

Yeah, I’m still awake. I’ve been trying to go to sleep and I’m just tossing and turning. One. More. Post. I swear! Then I’m really going to bed. Sernando seems to be making up for lost time with the constant bromancing.
