Is This For Real?

Am I dreaming? I can't believe that Barca is performing like this. Earlier in the season, some said that we will still have the same season like last year, no trophies, the "crisis" will continue. After we started winning some said that we can't big teams. But come on we beat Atletico, 6-1, Sevilla, 0-3, and just this Saturday, Valenicia, 4-0. Now the only thing we need is to thrash Real Madrid. Although we are almost assured of three points because they are injury-struck and obviously their confidence are very low. We are already through to the next stage in the CL, as we won our group, and the match against Shakhtar tonight is just formality. As Pep rested 8 first team players, and try to give a chance for our second-string players and four reserves. We are also through to next round of Copa del Rey, unlike Real, which we are going to meet Atletico, who are the only threat remaining.

This team is really different last season. Obviously Rijkaard, Ronaldinho and Deco are gone. With Pep, Hleb and Dani Alves replacing them. But just the chemistry in our matches, the team spirit is also very high and so as the team confidence. And one more thing we are performing very much better than last term.

It's nice to be back. And it's good to see that Joan Laporta is doing some charity event in that MÉS project with Nike, and ACNUR (UNHCR).
