Hi everyone,
Once again I’m writing to you after a good week, when we have been
working well to get another victory. Last Friday’s win was special, not
only because we played on a Friday night, which is quite unusual when
you are involved in a European competition, but also because it was the
first official game in Old Trafford this season. As you can imagine, the
atmosphere lived up to the expectations. Once again we could feel the
support of the crowd; it is vital if we want to make of every game in
Old Trafford a special day. It is also vital, in my opinion, to generate
that ‘chemistry’ with our fans in order to make of our stadium a very
tough place for the other teams.
We played a solid game against Southampton to get the second win out
of two games in the Premiership. It’s still August and that means we are
still working on a few adjustments. We know there’s still room for
improvement. We are laying the foundations of the team for this season
and, you know, those wins help us to create an optimistic atmosphere and
make things go well. Last Friday we deserved the three points. The only
bad news was my friend Oriol Romeu’s injury, luckily it’s nothing
serious. It’s always a pleasure to see you again, Ori, you are a
phenomenal player and one of the best persons I’ve ever met in the world
of football.
We have a tough game ahead on Saturday at Hull City. It’s never easy
and they are one of the four teams that have won the first two games
this season. They are back in the Premier League this year and are
having a surprising start. We will try to win and keep our good streak.
La Liga kicked off in Spain this weekend. Barcelona played an
impressive game and defeated Betis with yet another great game from
Messi. If he starts the season like this it’s not easy to foresee how
far is he going to get. Real Madrid also won in Anoeta with two goals
from Bale and one from Asensio (this guy is very talented). It was also
the first week in the Second Division. Unfortunately, Real Oviedo lost
in Valladolid but we all have hopes in this project. Michu has been the
latest addition to the team and I’m really happy for the club but also
for him, because he’s been very unlucky with injuries. I hope he can
help the team go back to the First Division! Good luck, ‘crack’.
Lastly, I’d like to say something about the Olympic Games in Rio,
that are now over. It’s been great to enjoy so many sports during these
two weeks, I really love the Games. Congratulations to all the
participants and specially to the Spanish medallists. They have made
history again and have produced exciting and unforgettable moments. You
guys are great! The effort and sacrifice of all the competitors is
commendable. Aside from medals or diplomas, the feeling of being part of
the Games is really worth it, I know that from my own experience! But
the true champions have been the #TeamRefugees in their first Olympic
Games. You are the true winners and deserve a big applause!
Have a nice week. Hugs,
