Barcelona no fit impress but dem try small

Barcelona, Spain – The new season don start for Barça, but e no dey shine as fans expect am. After one solid pre-season where all the players show face and injuries no show their pepper, everybody dey ginger for the team to show wetin dem fit do. But as dem don play three matches before the international break, the tally no bad: two wins and one draw.

But wait o! No be to just check points wey dem gather. If you watch the games, you go see say the blend dey sour somehow. First match, di boys bin score Mallorcas but e no be so sweet like that, as Mallorca bring their ‘A’ game even with just nine players for pitch by the end of di game. Na only for di Levante match dem really put in work as dem have to struggle comot from 2-0 down to win. And for Vallecas, na penalty wey cause wahala and if fans no reason am well, na so dem collect mercy.

Now as di break don come, our eyes don dey see the reflections. Flick, di coach wey everybody suppose hail, don dey vex like say dem use im favorite slippers chop ground. E don talk say too many egos dey for di dressing room. But make we clear am – wetin players go bring to di pitch no fit depend on egos. Na their duty to show intensity and di fire wey carry dem go reach di top last season.

Speaking of intensity, no be only Barça dey face di wahala. For Real Madrid, Xabi Alonso no dey gree fans rest at all. Training for dem no be jolly time like others; na daily wahala. Of 25 players, everybody show face except four wey dey on recovery mission. Mendy and Endrick dey back on di pitch, dey touch ball since their long injury breaks, and di crew dey expect dem back after di break.

As per Camavinga and Bellingham, dem dey recover well, but Bellingham go take extra time before e show di fans him skills again. E sure say dem dey work as hard as di fans dey expect, and di coach wahala no dey slack for dem side.

But as di season dey unfold, some naija fans dey wonder: wetin be di strategy for all these challenges wey dey come dem way? While dem talk say na financial balance for government wey dey affect growth, some of di team strategies fit adjust to di competition out dey. E go legit be matter of survival of di fittest.

If you check am well, last season’s success no fit cloud am; Barcelona and Real Madrid don dey struggle with injuries and egos while fans just dey sit down dey wonder who go carry di day. Na so di vibes don change but di march dey go on. Fans dey wait for di next opportunity to support dem as di love for di club no fit die.
