Fútbolita

Are you ready for the Champions League, futbolitas? Nothing like the sweet war of words between Inter and Barca to start the tournament. Apparently, Pep accused Eto’o of having a ‘lack of feelings’ (we’re guessing he means ‘cold’) and the Cameroonian is unhappy. Damn, these tipos watch too much Oprah!

“I have always helped everyone, and for me last season was a good year, as we all worked together for the good of Barcelona. I didn’t have any problems, but okay, if Guardiola said that I had no feeling for the club, that’s his opinion. I always committed myself, and I will show him that this week. My only problem now is that I still have no idea what he means by this ‘feeling.’” Ooh!

Added Ibra :  “I’ll do everything to score (on Wednesday) because I play for Barca now.” Obviously! It’d be great if he pulled a Kaladze, though with teammates like Iniesta and Xavi, you wouldn’t want to let them down.

In other match-ups that take place tonight, Milan travel to Marseille to kick off their first Champions League fixure with Leoooonardo at their helms. As you can see above, The Dinho and Pirlo are having trouble finishing their rounds! They’d better not humiliate themselves after a bitter season of UEFA Cup action. Meanwhile, Chelski take on a Saviola-inspired Porto at home while Juventus welcome Bordeaux to el stadio delle Alpi.
