July 29, 2010 - Oslo, Norway - epa02266130 FC Barcelona's Zlatan Ibrahimovic (L) vies for the ball with Valerenga Oslo's Stefan Strandberg (R) during the friendly soccer match between Barcelona and Valerenga at Ullevaal Stadium in Oslo, Norway, 29 July 2010. Barca won 4-2.

I honestly can't believe that I missed so much of action at Barca. Been away for sometime with some work. Let me first apologise to the regular readers for not updating the blog.Eventhough I was tracking each of Barca's event, never got substantial time to pen down my thoughts. The last time I wrote was about the nonsense of Cesc pursuit and am delighted that it atleast ended for the time being. But there is no let up in on field and off field action at Barca. Now the latest is the Ibrahimovic story getting evolved wonderfully. No idea how this happened to develop into such a mess. Let's come back to that later. First the most brilliant event of these weeks - the astonishing comeback by Barca in the Super Cup. I have to admit that i didn't believe that we will overturn the 3-1 deficit from the first leg. First of all, most of the first team players were vacationing after a long World Cup campaign and weren't in the best frame of mind and the last time we were down 3-1 in a two legged tie we failed to overturn the deficit. But this time it was different. As far as the victroy at Racing is concerned, I think I might write an entire post on that match.

Cesc Fabregas story refuses to die and most probably it will do regular rounds till the transfer market is closed. Everyone expected the lid to be closed after Iniesta remarked that "Cesc will continue with Arsenal". Suddenly Mundodeportivo has unearthed a secret agreement, which has put Wikileaks this week revelations to shame. According to them the agreement has already reached and will see Cesc moving into Barca very soon and they already have said which numer he will be weraing at barca - the Guardiola "4". Trying to make sense out of this latest revelation would be futile as there is only one word to describe this - RUBBISH. Barca management has recently started to acknowledge the fact that this deal is not going to happen this season. Many big players have already commented about Arsenal's reluctance to come to negotiating deal. So this deal remains as "Dead as Buried".
