The Goleadores: El Pistolero raids Espanyol

The deadliest number 9 made a spectacular return to form. 

We are now at the point where Barcelona have only four games left in the season: three La Liga matches, and the Copa del Rey final. It is somewhat annoying to be in first place, but not be the one in control of your own fate. Every victory achieved by the good guys is tinged by a sour aftertaste embodied by the phrase “yeah, but…”. Barcelona cruise past Osasuna! Yeah, but Real Madrid manhandled Deportivo. Barcelona gutted a victory over Espanyol in the Catalan Derby! Yeah, but Real Madrid squeaked by Valencia. It is a very bothersome situation in which to be. We can only hope for Real Madrid to lose a game, and that’s if Barcelona don’t stumble yet again. This is where we regret some of the points haphazardly given away this season of crucial importance.

Despite the possibility of only winning a single competition (knock on wood), this is my favorite point of every season. I thoroughly enjoy the process of reading every single iota of information of possible transfer market acquisitions. Every rumor, no matter how unrealistic, provides endless hours of entertainment in the off-season, where entertainment is sorely needed. I especially enjoy reading this blog, as I feel most of us are true fans, with incredible amounts of knowledge. No brown-nosing, just stating a fact. This season also provides the rarer instance of searching for a new coach. Let’s hope that by next season we have a terrifying juggernaut under the command of a tactical mastermind.

Irish Goat’s Gamboling Goleadores!

1st Goleador: Luis Suárez

El Pistolero throws up a two-spot with the effortless ease of someone reminding doubters that he is, without question, the best number 9 in the world. I don’t want to sound ungrateful, but I can’t wait to see what this top three can achieve when the midfield suffocates the opposing team and provides endless, decent opportunities.

2nd Goleador: Busquets

I was salivating over Busquets’ form in this game…is that weird? Hey, maybe I am weird, maybe I should be institutionalized for the protection of others, but I am not the one that gave me a spot on this blog. Y’all can blame Bostjan for that.

3rd Goleador: Sergi Roberto

Winner of the International Japanese Haiku competition with a devastatingly beautiful, single syllable haiku.

Visca Barça!
