Oh La Liga!

As the spanish liga,the hub of the art and acts of football worldwide,got under way last weekend,the stage was set for another kind of history.Across the board, teams in Spain did not threaten to blow up the bidding hot spots.Real Madrid for instance,acquired some of the best youthful talents in European football in order to take the club to a higher level of glory.With Angel Di Maria(Benfica),Pedro leon,Sam Khedira(Stuttgart) and Mesut Oezil(Werder Bremen) all teeming up with the blanco cake,Florretino Perez found no other icing beyond Jose Mourinho.This is the aspiring project aiming to wrest control of la liga from their fiercest competitor in the world,Barcelona.

The Catalan giants have been able to take off their new season with a solid performance,bagging all three points.After Coach Pep saw backs exiting the Nou Camp in the cases of Yaya Toure,Rafael Marquez and Thierry Henry,Ibrahimovic joined Milan on a season long loan on  a Monday with fist option to buy at 24m euros. Barcelona are short of depth and they are eager to step up some young players.In a rift with the big strikers ego,Pep talked about a hard working man who lets his personality get in his way,straining relationships around him.Pep is keeping his cards close to his chest and monitoring the market for the right swoop to bet his money on.
 Sevilla on their part,managed to also keep their crust together with the spear head of Luis Fabiano and Frederic Kanoute,but the Super Cup defeat to Barcelona did nothing to raise them  above the chasing pack behind the league leaders.With the Malian evergreen with a handful of goals,Sevilla are sure to seriously work it in order to land a euro spot.
Diego Forlan confirmed his status as an mvp by choosing to remain with Madrid based club Athletico,alongside fellow compatriot Kun Aguerro who is largely sought after  this summer by a host of clubs.A euro spot will be the right tonic for a team aiming to recapture some glory this term,after lifting the prestigious UEFA cup.The imminent piece of silverware facing Forlan and the  gang is a Super Cup,and Inter Milan lies in wait between  them.
  •  La Liga is upon us,the beautiful game is back.
