What Happened To Chetana

SEÑORÍO by Carlos Boyero

In a documentary made Kusturica about this player enduring and foolish man called Maradona, this had never had to look at the ball to know where he was because as a child and played in Buenos Aires suburbs when the night were doing in the dark, melancholy was in that I remember as clear. I read in an interview made to Del Bosque, the individual model for many reasons, still standing when you see kids playing football in the street in his recognition that football is life itself.

A Del Bosque, who has spent much of its existence linked to Real Madrid and was humiliatingly fired after having won everything as a coach, not enjoy the blessing of the fucking glamorous, nor speak English, or have received proposals for Armani model, I have never heard of genetic and vocational dominion club that holds his soul. I have never owned the exact meaning of this concept seems to divine. But it has been eternal attribute of facherío slicked and quarrelsome. Normally I run when someone calls himself exalted tone or pathetically drunk like, "I am a gentleman." Most likely, then you also report that a patriot. Are two concepts related grime. I understand that Perez paid a fortune to a pragmatic mercenary, ready Mourinho arrogant as the sole mission to take the throne at the Barcelona that you will love. But it also intends to honor him as a champion and symbol of Madrid Manor is excessive. Or at worst, only consistent.

Del Bosque also has the selection that seeks to represent a country, but not to evangelize, give joy to a tense society. And that choice always offers a beautiful picture. When Villa historic mark on Friday his goal is to hug a bald gentleman who always seems to be the happiest in the selection when it succeeds. Reina is a backup. Casillas may forever if the state remains unchanged grace. Human in Queen would be the envy or sadness. But endorses the success of their peers. Maybe therein lies the domain of truth.

SPAGHETTI FOR MILAN by Enric González

Naples has won again. As a second classification maintains the pulse of Milan around the top of Serie A. The south has the right to dream with another scudetto, as those two in the second half of the eighties, when a certain Diego Armando Maradona was no longer a mere mortal to go to become a saint, a saint now! after turning the story and get together a few guys do for the first time a club champion Mezzogiorno. The first article that was posted on this blog, dedicated to stories of Calcium Enric Gonzalez left Monday in the country, was the Spaghetti for Milan. At that time, seven years ago, it was Napoli in Serie A, is not even competing for uploading. Their fight was not to their bones in the Third. Magic away the years remaining in which he was able to conquer the north, almost as far as the years have passed since then. But the dream has become a San Paolo. Viewing today's win against another lump, Catania, I remembered that article of the past. In a display of "contraactualidad" here is left the little history of northern and southern .

The three major Italian football clubs, Juventus, Milan and Inter are the north and finally became strong in the late 50's and early 60's thanks to the massive influx of immigrants Southerners. Who benefited most from this demographic shift was the Milan, the club proletarian of the city, as opposed to Inter, born of a split and always preferred by the bourgeoisie.

The work of the poor South Terrone Lombardy became one of the most industrialized and richest regions of Europe, its drive towards integration and enthusiasm auparon colors rojinegros and held them in the dark years, between 1980 and 1983, when Milan fell to the Second Division punished for corruption, he went and came back down on its own merits. Then came Silvio Berlusconi, who by then was limited to be the richest in the place, and what happened happened: AC Milan began collecting scudettos (League) and eared (European Cup).

A Berlusconi, whose political activity amazes and depresses the world, you can never deny the talent as a football chairman. Spend a fortune on new signings, right, and make up the balance sheets as anyone, also true. But so does Massimo Moratti at Inter and do not eat a donut.

Milan, European champions, and escapes in the league, after the fall rut. Shevchenko returns to the usual one, the young Brazilian Kaka (22 just turned) looks set to become the player of the decade (sounds strong, but true) and spaghetti platazos Carlo Ancelotti forcing the team to swallow midnight, after the late games have become a sort of magic potion. The zebras

(those in the Juve) maintain regular office, but his defense is, strangely, very loose, the snakes (Inter) have bought to compensate for Stankovic to Lazio urgently fiasco Kily Gonzalez but they are far behind and, moreover, have as always ready to fire gun in the foot if necessary, the Roma, whose game dazzled in the first round, is in crisis and begin to see that Emerson, the beam, will go to the end of the season. Things are looking good again for Milan.

How different is all for those who did not migrate and remained in Naples. There was a moment of glory, that of Maradona, and nothing else. Neapolitans still revere Maradona and yearning for the fleeting supremacy gave them while attending to the collapse of his team.

Napoli lost again yesterday, up from Como, and tifosi returned to star in a violent battle that left two injured. The club of the great southern city hangs on the tail of second and feel the cold on the heels of the third, the final calamity. Neapolitan poor. Milan had their cousins \u200b\u200band do have much more luck.

THE GIFT OF 'KING Canton' by John Carlin

"1966 was a great year for English football. Eric was born." Nike ad for Eric Cantona. In 1966 England won its only World Cup.

hard to think in a French character, historical or contemporary, the English have admired. Charles " de Gaulle? Too pompous. "Joan of Arc? Religious fanaticism does not sit well in the islands. "Napoleon? A madman. Yes, yes, there are Victor Hugo and Louis Pasteur Monet and that for people of exquisite culture, such as readers of this newspaper and some other specialist English, are figures worthy of reverence. But we are talking here of people whose fame has penetrated popular culture English and here, again, is hard to find a French by the English who feel anything other than contempt.

The same should be true in reverse. Too many years of wars and bad feeling between the two countries to be able to see virtues of their national heroes. The English do not forgive that in 1066 a Norman Duke crossed the English Channel, won a battle and was crowned king, imposing French as the language of the court for over 300 years. The French, meanwhile, do not forgive the British saved them in World War II.

One exception to the rule, an exception generated by the football, global phenomenon can both unite and divide human beings. We talk about the King Eric Cantona. In its beginnings in England, indeed, French footballer was king only for fans of Manchester United. Well, we own, but with what fervor loved it! Cantona jumped every time the lawn of Old Trafford stadium the stands, a sea of \u200b\u200bFrench flags, exploding to the beat of the Marseillaise. "Cantona, Cantona, Cantona-a Cantona-a, Cantonaaa!" Chanted 50,000 English heretics. The Sun King, whose goal gave the United League in 1993 after more than a quarter century of waiting, eclipsed Beckham, Giggs, Scholes, Keane-all "during his five years at the club.

And with the passage of time was winning the hearts of all England. Today is a national idol. Everything he has done or said since retiring from football has caused headlines in the British press. His appearance in the film Elizabeth, playing the role of the French ambassador, created a furor, and their performance in a famous TV commercials in which he left in the shadow figures of the likes of Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, too. Last year one of the filmmakers most renowned in England, Ken Loach, made a movie called Looking for Eric Cantona to in the starring role. And this week the news has been appointed director of football club New York Cosmos did not go unnoticed by any means English. We celebrated the triumph not as a foreigner, but as one of yours.

How do you explain? How did that when he jumped into the crowd one day and gave him a kung-fu kick at a rival fan, one who had fallen into blasphemy to shout the kinds of things that the fans of Atletico Madrid yells at José Mourinho, the national consensus was that he had done well, he had demonstrated impeccable moral criterion? Why now, 14 years after hanging up his boots, the New York Cosmos believe he is the man to restore the luster to its flagging brand? It was, in fact, a player so good. Nothing to do with, say, Zidane, and never was nominated for a Golden Ball So what? Is that the guy has charisma. And the charisma, charisma really is an exceptional quality, rarely seen, as the genius of a musician or an athlete, or a painter, before which we all fall down exhausted. The secret of charisma is to have full consciousness, far beyond the arrogance (always hidden complex) that really are special, they are great and you will be admired by all. And that you do not admire is a jerk. Cantona holds the secret to wealth and that makes it irresistible. Everyone wants to share your light: even the British, knowing that it is French.
