Guardiola's shadow weighs Mourinho

On Saturday September 10, Jose Mourinho andPep Guardiola met for the first time in Premier League . The Manchester United came to grief unbeaten, having won the Community Shield against Leicester and three wins at the start of the English competition. After losing 1-2 against Manchester City , Mourinho has not yet returned to score any points: defeat in the opening in the Europa League against Feyenoord (1-0) and against Watford (3-1) in Premier.

The small crisis that has already begun at Old Trafford contrasts especially with the great success of its neighbor, the City of Pep Guardiola. The Catalan coach receives praise from experts for their style and play while data placed the 'Citizierns' as leaders with five wins in league and Champions League after thrashing Borussia Monchengladbach (4-0). And it just so happens that the fall of Mou comes after the defeat to Pep. Although Rashford and avoided in the final minutes on the third day of a possible stumbling against Hull City (0-1).

The United highlighted at the start of championship for his defensive solidity and its gunpowder in attack, especially by the Swedish Zlatan Ibrahimovic ; who he scored four goals in the first three games of the set 'red devil'. A solvent team in recent games has seen conceded an average of two goals per game. To all this must be added the inclusion in the elevenPaul Pogba . The most expensive signing in football history has not yet provided all the quality that is presupposed and pressure to him and to the United increases at each meeting.

Which shows that something is wrong at United are the surprising facts that brings Opta. And since 2006 Mourinho did not lose three games in a row as coach (two seasons). And with today's defeat against Watford is the first time the Portuguese coach has lost three consecutive match in a season since I was in Porto in 2001/02. Too many losses for a coach accustomed to winning. United manager has lost 14 of their last 32 games as coach, ie 40 percent of the games.

It is to be seen if Mou can turn the scenario that now exists in the Premier League. For now the shadow of the success of Pep Guardiola weighs him, although the Portuguese coach has time to return to their habitat: the triumph.

Guardiola: "After Messi, comes De Bruyne"

Kevin de Bruyne has started the season flawlessly and excelled once again, this time in victory Manchester City on Bournemouth (4-0) with a goal and an assist. Pep Guardiola it then praised the party and even dared to put a step below Leo Messi .

And Cristiano Ronaldo , Pep?

Coach Manchester United ,Jose Mourinho , again criticizing referees after the defeat against Watford (3-1) in Premier League. "There is no debate, no controversy. This is an obvious situation. It was already evident last week against the City and it has now. However, I can not control the referee and the assistant. they are out of my control. I can not even be critical of them , "said the coach on TV BT Sports.

The Portuguese coach also was displeased with the result: "I'm always concerned when we do not get the result we want, so it is an obvious situation I'm not very happy with the game.". "In the first 30 minutes we did not play well and that's something we can control. We need to work on and improve, but I said that the performance of the referee and the linesman is not under my control. Here I can not do anything to improve it "said the former coach of Real Madrid .

Mourinho sum ​​for the first time since the 2001-2002 season ( Porto ) three consecutive losses as a technician in one campaign after stumbling against Manchester City , Feyenoord and Watford.

The United Mourinho is already in crisis after losing 3-1 against Watford

The Manchester United of Jose Mourinho is in crisis after suffering their third consecutive defeat, this time against Watford 3-1, and away from the top of the Premier.

Watford who had not started too well the championship after winning 4 of the 12 possible points, completely left Manchester United with his game plan, 3-5-2, which has imposed the Italian coach Walter Mazzarri .

Red Devils Mourinho did not seem to adapt to the umpteenth change of system, which together with the good performance of North London, established a new defeat for the Portuguese coach.

Alonso: "The seventh position is above expectations"


The Spanish Fernando Alonso (McLaren-Honda) said after the Singapore Grand Prix won the seventh "is above expectations."

"The start was very good and I gained a few positions to fifth. Then you have to wait for something to happen in front to have any chance of being very close to the podium. But it was the first Singapore in which nothing happens before nor have bothered those behind, "he said.

"Outside of the two Mercedes, the two Ferrari and the two Red Bull have been the first, the best of the rest, when I think we had no means the fourth fastest car here," he added.

Alonso said: "The team did a good strategy and went well because the seventh is certainly above expectations."

Sainz: "It's frustrating that every failure the day that everything has to go right"

The Spanish Carlos Sainz (Toro Rosso), fourteenth in the Grand Prix of Singapore, said after the race that is frustrating , "all fail the day you have to get everything right."

Sainz does not believe the incident at the start has been the factor which determined his career: "It is true that we broke a part of the right side that made us lose downforce, but then got to have a good pace."

"What happened is that after the first stop I got into traffic and then had a breakdown that made me go with 600 horses, so you can imagine the frustration is that everything fails the day you have to get everything right" he added.

"So I could not overtake and could not defend myself. A two-hour race with 650 hp that has the engine without the battery makes you lose much back," Sainz said that, however, said that "even with the car broken could have finished in the points. "

1-5. Messi and Suarez finished with the illusion of Leganés

The Barcelona consummated conclusively their week of redemption after falling against Alaves and then punish harshly Celtic in Champions, did the same with the Leganes on his visit to Butarque (1-5).

Again Luis Enrique opted for rotations in the starting lineup. In the absence of known and Busquets in midfield he joined that of Sergi Roberto , who took place on the bench. Both circumstances led to a modification drawing with defense of three composed Pique, Mascherano and Umtiti.

The experiment had some daring against an opponent who was willing to bite from the start uncaring of the consequences. Lacking complex, they blanquiazules gambled by high pressure output visitor difficult ball. The idea, score an early goal and resist.

Men like Neymar and Iniesta were not comfortable driving and losses were followed by quick counterattacks of Leganes, wearing extreme danger and Gabriel was in the game channeler attack. One of his center Medjani headed it over the bar.

It needed someone to light the light of Barcelona and this time took it upon themselves to do Messi and Suarez . They had not warned, had not intimidated, but appeared to reinvent the story of the facts.

Fifteen minutes later the Argentine fell to the half to send through ball first Uruguayan. They then began the two runaway parallel race that ended in the area, with the first pushing the second network assistance.

And with calmness going ahead with the willing to keep trying, hosts the team began to be comfortable. Insua forced the brilliance of his companion Serantes on a ball deflected while Suarez and Messi met again.

It was half an hour. A dead ball hunted the "ten" and the shadow of the crescent was dodging opponents to stand against Serantes. Before he finished the tessitura of the action or give him the both Suarez chose the second.

Neymar was lacking in the call by dialing 'MSN' and fulfill its role. He did it before the break when he put the finishing touch to a play which, again, had begun with the combination of his two companions attack. All it sentenced, despite which the supporters fired yours intermediate shouting 'Lega, Lega'.

They went back to green again the 'pepineros' willful and Koné tested to Ter Stegen. Less they needed to increase the Catalans account. In his first approach Bustinza Neymar clearly dropped in the area. Messi converted the penalty correctly.

From that moment on the bench began to look askance at the game against Atletico. Alcacer replaced Suarez, Arda Turan to Rakitic and Denis Iniesta. The last change came shortly after the goal of the afternoon, by Rafinha with an unstoppable hit from the front destined for the top corner.

Until the end, those of Garitano looked proudly honor bullseye and this eventually reached when had ten minutes thanks to a flawless free kick from Gabriel. It was the culmination of an already historic day, the first in which the Barcelona stepped Butaque.

- Data sheet:

1 - Leganés: Serantes, Victor Diaz , Bustinza, Insua, Diego Rico; Medjani (Ruben Perez Min.46), Unai Lopez (Omar Min.61), Sastre; Koné, machis (Szymowski, Min.61) and Gabriel.

The resurgence of Rafinha


One of the most positive news was the Barcelona his visit to Leganés was the performance of Rafinha . The Brazilian played 90 minutes scoring a spectacular goal also. Olympic champion this season promises to war.

And it will do against all odds. And so , after the signings of Denis Suarez and Andre Gomes more good performances by Arda Turan did think that Rafinha not have place in this club, but Luis Enrique has very much in his plans, even more so if the player pays as well as before the Leganes.

The long-term injury he suffered last year was a stick to its progression, but this season has returned stronger than ever with the illusion intact, ready to earn a place in a team where competition is fierce.

Before the Leganes Luis Enrique tested a new system with four midfielders, a drawing that fits him perfectly Rafinha. The Brazilian took the right flank at all times relying on Messi . The smallest of the Alcantara has shown that quality spare him to wear the Barca shirt. Are we facing a new case Sergi Roberto ?

Luis Enrique and the new rotation policy



The Barcelona coach Luis Enrique Martinez, surely has the perception that the successful last season, met with a doublet (Liga and Copa del Rey), could still be better if their best players they had reached the final stretch of the campaign in physical fullness, which is willing to solve this course.

And so it has implemented. Has helped the team's demanding schedule in this September (seven games in 23 days), calls for the different selections and, in some cases, some physical problems.

Besides the huge wardrobe with counting Barca this season, since it could have compensated the staff always helps the coach to dispense the minutes of its players and the latest example was seen yesterday in Butarque.

To everyone 's surprise, Luis Enrique left at home Sergio Busquets , until then the player with the most ownerships (six) in this early season with Leo Messi , Rafinha and premiered ownership also changed the game system, 3-4 -3 attacking with Javier Mascherano on the right side and became 4-3-3 defending and Alba on the left.

Since the start of the championship (seven games between league and Champions), the club has had 21 players and two goalkeepers in the holder and the only one who has not left home team was the third goalkeeper Jordi Masip .

After Busquets and Messi, who has played more times as a starter (five times) are Luis Suarez , Gerard Pique, Ivan Rakitic and Samuel Umtiti , which is the most prominence is among the new signings. Denis Suárez , Mascherano, Jordi Alba and Sergi Roberto also accumulate a number of minutes.

Before concluding the month, the club still has to face three commitments: two League (September 21, Atletico Madrid , 24, Sporting Gijon ) and one of Champions (28, Borussia Moenchengladbach).

The team returned to work today and tomorrow, will rest. Barcelona fans have been trained to complete in a session that has had the presence of three team players: Marlon Santos, Nili and Carbonell.

After falling surprisingly against Alaves at home (1-2), Barca have reacted in a big way and have managed paths thrashings against Celtic Glasgow (7-0) and Leganés (1-5), two games in which trident Messi, Suarez and Neymar has been especially worn with achieving 10 goals and nine assists.

Leganes is the team of La Liga which receives fewer fouls this season (21).

Leganes lost only two of their 21 home games in Segunda last season (12V 7E).

Lionel Messi has scored 33 of the 37 teams he has faced in the league (314 goals).

Javier Mascherano can play their number 174 game in the league and become the field player with more games without a goal in the club's history in the competition ( Michael Reiziger 173).

Rubén Pérez has only scored once in his 145 games in the top flight , just before the club in 2013 with Betis .

Barcelona have won all three league games he addressed them De Burgos Bengoetxea, witness FC Barcelona 0-8 in Riazor, maximum win of the league last home.

The Barcelona suffered last Saturday the first offense of the current league after losing at home to Alaves . A clash in which vitorianos played, he tied the Blaugrana but a goal by Ibai Gomez gave the three points to the team that has returned this year to the first division after ten years of absence. Many pointed to Luis Enrique as responsible for the rotations made ​​at that meeting. The truth is that the club missed a great opportunity to rise to leadership and now is fifth, three points behind Real Madrid .

This week history repeats itself and the Blaugrana will face a team that went to First at the end of last season, the Leganés . Although in this case the meeting will be at home and the opponent a team that has premiered category and is in the elite for the first time in its history.

The locals made ​​their country a fortress last year and have not conceded in the one they have played at home in this league. The Lega has left a clean sheet in seven of their last ten games in Butarque, six second and one in first.

The set of Luis Enrique can not afford another slip. He has already lost four league games in 2016, as many as in 2015 to complete. Leganes fight to get something positive as it did in its premiere in Butarque in La Liga against Atletico Madrid, with the final result of 0-0. In his fiefdom, the locals only lost two of their last 21 games in the league in second (12 wins and seven draws).

Ruben Perez was heading in Butarque against Atletico and is one of the men to follow and which has only scored once in his 145 games in the top flight and it was precisely against Barcelona in 2013 with Betis . Eyes will be also placed on Leo Messi facing first Leganes and doubt whether may issue to it . The Argentine has scored against 33 of the 37 teams he has faced in the league, a total of 314 goals.

Both coaches have all players available to develop the eleven formed in Butarque in this meeting of the fourth day. Luis Enrique could have all their heavy artillery to have the starting XI of this meeting and avoid another shock. As it did last Tuesday to take a festival of goals against Celtic at the premiere of the course in Champions League . 7-0, its biggest win in the competition with three goals from Messi, two of Luis Suarez , one of Neymar and one from Iniesta.

Aritz Aduriz, the 'Phoenix' which reemerged after leaving Valencia


Abandonment Valencia by the back door 30 years, and nothing foreshadowed what would happen next with Aritz Aduriz . The guipuzcoano started scoring goals like never before had done, surprising friends and strangers, becoming the flagship of the Athletic Club of Bilbao to date.

In Valencia, Aduriz alternated between light and shadow, in a very good season, where he got to 14 goals in all official competitions. In that first season, Aduriz alternated with Roberto Soldado the center forward position and even got to play together on more than one occasion, although Unai Emery was reluctant to outline two points. Soldier paid more, and he got 11 goals more than the Basque, which repecurtiría the following season.

Although still have minutes the next season, it cost quite see Aduriz goal. He finished with 9 goals in all competitions, while Roberto Soldado was uncovered as one of the best scorers in the league , finishing with 27 points and with 2,000 minutes played that now Athletic striker. That season was the one that took Aduriz and Valencia to go their separate ways. Basque returned home ready to rewrite history.

Highly intelligent and powerful passing game, Aduriz felt like a fish in water, in a season with Marcelo Bielsa , and in the future with Ernesto Valverde . It was fate that did not want cacereño Aduriz and technical coincide in Valencia during 2012/2013. Who knows then whether the film Aduriz in Valencia had had another script.

Anyway, Aduriz was improving its numbers year after year in the Athletic. 18 goals in the first two seasons, 26 in the third and a spectacular figure of 36 goals last season, earning him the call for Euro 2016 in France by popular acclaim, as recognized Vicentel del Bosque in an interview .

In Bilbao, Aduriz has felt important, with gallons and weight and off the field. Few thought that the striker could make that turn in his career when he left Valencia with thirty fulfilled. A Case of Benjamin Button in football without any doubt. Now with 35 years, the mission of Aduriz to beat records last season is almost a pipe dream. The '20' Athletic has failed to score this season, and the first goal statistics should be close. Paradoxically, the next opponent is the one who let him go in search of a second youth; a Valencia reaches San Mames with many problems and questions. The script seems almost written.

Atletico, a killing machine against Sporting Gijon at home

These are the curiosities that brings Opta will face encounter with Atletico Sporting .

The Atletico Madrid has won their last ten home games against Sporting in the league , the last three without conceding a single goal.

The sportinguistas have only lost two of their last five games against the mattress in First (2V 1E), both at the Vicente Calderon.

Atletico has won seven of their last eight league at home (1E) matches and left clean sheets in six of them.

The Spaniard set have drawn four of their last five outings ligueras (twice 0-0 and two 1-1).

Atletico's La Liga team receives fewer shots this season (17, only three of them on goal).

Sporting takes ten consecutive visits losing to Atletico in Laliga, the worst run in their history against the Rojiblancos in the competition.

Atletico has scored seven league goals his last in the second half of game.

Antoine Griezmann has scored five goals in five games against Sporting in the league.

The French player has scored six goals in his last seven league games at the Vicente Calderon.

Cop has participated in three of the four goals of Sporting in the league (two goals and an assist).

The waters calmed down somewhat more by the banks of the Manzanares. The Atletico Madrid receives at the Vicente Calderon to Sporting Gijon with balsamic effect have meant the last two victories achieved by the set of Diego Simeone . The resounding victory ended 0-4 in Balaidos momentarily to debate the lack of scoring that had suffered the rojiblancos in their first two league games. And last Tuesday Atletico got a great result (0-1) against PSV at the Philips Stadion, starting with the right foot his career this season in the Champions League.

Sporting, meanwhile, faces the view of one of the most difficult stages of the competition with spirits through the roof after the great start to the season that are leading the pupils of Abelard . With seven points in the first three days and occupying third place in the standings, the team arrives unbeaten gijonés Calderon, although it has not obtained good results precisely in Madrid 's fiefdom in their last visits.

The Spaniard box lost in their last ten games in this stadium, unable to score any goal in the last three. So, Duje Cop and company try to turn around this negative dynamic results. Abelardo has the question of Moi Gómez by an overload in the quadriceps. Sportinguista team coach could make some rotations considering three games coming up in just a week. What is assumed is that Cop continue the offensive team reference. And the Croatian attacker is still one of the great sensations of this first section of the course and, with two goals and an assist, has participated in three of the four goals scored by the gijoneses so far.

Colchonero in the box, Simeone will be without Moya, Alessio Cerci and Tiago Mendes, the three injury. Savic is likely to enter Gimenez in the center of defense and Torres could make up to Gameiro. The moment that does not fall in rotations is Griezmann. The French striker this season premiered in league with a double in Balaídos and has scored five goals to Sporting in its five commitments to the Asturian in the league competition.

Islamic State replaces football referees by the law of "an eye for an eye"

The terrorist organization ISIS has just banned football arbitrations in the territory it controls in Syria and Iraq partly because it believes that the FIFA rules "go against the wishes and orders of Allah."

According to the English medium The Independent , the British organization Syrian Observatory of Human Rights (SOHR) said that in the caliphate the basic rules of football no longer govern, and have been replaced by a special regulation that provides for compensation in case of injury to a player opponent.

According to the same sources, the leaders of ISIS consider that the FIFA regulations are an interference with their local laws, and do not respect in any way, as they consider "illegitimate".

One of the most striking rules is the prohibition of the arbitrators. According to Islamic reasoning, gimped not follow the laws that Allah has revealed, but those of FIFA, and therefore "are violating the orders of Allah and the Sunnah ".

The new rules provide for the eye for an eye: if a player is injured in the field, has the right to exact revenge or compensation. For example, if your ankle has been injured, could ask several players kicked the same area of the offending player, to injure.

The decision to abolish the FIFA rules born of the courts created by the heads of the Islamic State, which in recent weeks have striven to make rulings that eliminated any kind of regulation from outside. That is, it is expected that soon They issued a resolution against the laws of sports like basketball or tennis.

The 'official' games of the league Syrian territory occupied by the ISIS have begun to be played this weekend in the city of Deir ez-Zor. According Sohr, some players say that no one can take on the field a garment with FIFA logo "If not, ISIS soldiers would stop us."
