Why juventus will win Champions final on Cardiff?

On one hand first the comprehensive manner of victory over Barcelona suggests this is finally the moment Italy's grandest name returns to Europe's summit. The team is so well balanced with quality from back to front and in Max Allegri have a manager who can tailor tactics to the cause. Juventus defence has been close to impenetrable in the Champions League, only conceding twice in 10 games and both from set pieces, while they possess variety in attack.

On another hand Real Madrid are a hard work team, winning juggernaut,  like they did winning La Liga and with their sights set on an historic double. 

Zinedine Zidane deserves more credit for his work, he has, to a great extent, unified a club that is so often beset by divisions and his team are imbued with a winning mentality to accompany their talent. And they have the best player in the competition of course, in the extraordinary Cristiano Ronaldo.

Of course Atletico Madrid have an equally miserly defence but Juve have just that slight edge in the quality of their individuals, from Giorgio Chiellini at the back to Gonzalo Higuain up top. Real will be favourites with Ronaldo in superlative form but history is against them with no Champions League holders ever following the title.

If someone had to choose for one of this two teams i think Juventus would be the best option, because FCBarcelona also got a victory versus Madrid on their last match, they were very superior. And Juventus won Barcelona with a 4-0 on Champions that shows us Juventus is the clearly best team of this season.

Is FC Barcelona the best team of the world?

Nowadays more and more people think that Barça is the best team of the world, but the problem is that in this season Barça only has won “Copa del Rei”.

On one hand, Barça is the only team that has won two triplets in the last 5 years on an international level. At the national level FC Barcelona had won six leagues of the last nine and five “Copas del Rei” of the last nine, Barça is the team that had won more “Copas del Rei”.  Another reason can be that the football style of Barça that Johan Cruyff had implanted, Josep Guardiola continued and now, the actual trainer Luis Enrique uses.  This style consists in passing de ball with all the players of the team until reach to porter and kicks the ball.

Although Messi has scored forty goals and has won the Golden Boot, now, we are talking about the team and not about an only player. Barça this year only has won “Copa del Rei” and this trophy is less valuable than Champions or the League. But many people of the teams that are not Barça says that the referees help to Real Madrid and for this reason Barça has not won the League.

To sum up, I agree with people that say FC Barcelona is the best team of the world; on my point of view I think that if the referees didn’t help Real Madrid, Barça would has won the league and Bayern the Champions.

Dear Mr Glazer,

I am writing to you to let you know about the situation that occurred the last Saturday the first of March on the Old Trafford stadium, while I was watching Manchester United - Arsenal.

At the night of that day, i went to see my team playing in the stadium, as currently i do, and i was very disappointed with the aptitudes of Paul Pogba, and Jose Mourinho, in these last match days, no one has done nothing for the future of the club without showing any type of apologise.

A professional player who earns so much money should give his high level in every match, like his trainer, he didn’t gave any explication about the bad rendiment of the team. And the fans of United are starting to get angry. If the partners start to complain of Jose Mourinho, that means Manchester United will have to look for a better coach than he.

In conclusion I think if this football club keeps acting like they have made a good season, that will just create an ego of superiority that will make that their players play in a lowest rendiment. That is a mistake that the coach will have to talk with the directive members.

Yours faithfully

When I was young I used to go to the Camp Nou to see my favourite team Barça. But I remember one match perfectly, the 5-0 against Real Madrid.

Two hours before the match, my father and I left of Igualada to arrive early for have time to have dinner and see the FC Barcelona Shop, where my father bought me a scarf of Barça. Twenty minutes before the match starts we entered to the Stadium, I was very exciting because that was the first time I went to the Camp Nou.

The match started at 10 o’clock and at the minute nine, Xavi scored the first goal of Barça. Pedro was the second to score a goal, eight minutes after the first goal. The first part of the match finished and we profited to buy something to eat, I could not believe that Barça was winning the match against Madrid. In the second part of the match, David Villa scored a doublet in 2 minutes and the fifth goal scored Jeffren.

That was the best day of my life, Barça won the classic versus Madrid for five goals, I didn’t believe. I returned at home very happy and I explained the match to my mum.

Do football players earn too much money? This is a question many people does and the most part of it think that they charge too much, now I’ll say some reasons for and against.

On one hand, I think they have those salaries for how many sponsors there are, as there are a lot of sponsors the teams earn more money and the major part of this money is to pay players. There are also so many partners in every team, I don‘t think teams care much on partners as they don’t generate a big quantity of money, however it is something we have to take into account. Teams earn a part of the money from merchandising, this is a small part of teams budget as a big part of the money they win from merchandising goes to the brand of the shirt and a small part to the club.

On the other hand, footballers just kick a ball to earn millions and that’s a bit unfair, as there are people like doctors that are paid with an inadequate amount for such hard work and footballers are just for entertainment. And there are also boys who want to become like them but as they don’t have enough skills they spend so much time practising football and less studying and in the future they have bad jobs.

In conclusion, in my opinion they shouldn’t earn that amount of money as it is exaggerated for the amount of work they have to do.

The best team in England is Chelsea.

Nowadays more and more people think that Chelsea is the best team in England because of the winning streak they had last month. The problem is that there are more teams in the Premier league, and now not everybody likes them.

Firstly, Antonio Conte (Chelsea new trainer) it’s better than Mourinho, last season Chelsea got 6th place on premier league, that’s a bad place for a team like chelsea. And this season Chelsea is on the 1st place because Antonio Conte it’s a very intelligent football trainer. This season Chelsea have also great football players, like Hazard,Courtois,Costa…

Secondly, there are more good teams in England, Tottenham is on the 2nd place and very close to chelsea. This team don’t have the best players, because they can't pay good players, but they have the best trainer in England Mauricio Pochettino. If Tottenham win the premier it’s because Pochettino, he knows how to win a match since the first minute and because he is very cleaver.

In conclusion, i think that Chelsea have the best players on the premier but tottenham have the best trainer. Chelsea will be fighting for the 1st place versus Tottenham, I recommend you all to see it, it will be interesting.

Dear Mr Reinhard Rauball,

I am sending you this email to make you aware of a situation that occurred on Monday the 2nd of March between me and Borussia Dortmund in Signal Idune Park.

At the night of the last Monday the 2nd, I decided to go to see Dortmund in the stadium, as I usually do, and I was extremely surprised by the actions of Thomas Tuchel, the trainer of the team. In the last month he hasn’t won any match what it is completely disappointing if we want to go to play champions league the next year.

I contacted with my good friend Thomas and he told me that there was no reason to get nervous and he also said the team was on its top level. He then informed me that he will make no change to the team and leave it as now.

I am very disappointed with the mentality of the trainer. I demand an apology and I expect you to make out Thomas Tuchel. It would also be a good idea to make him change his mind. If I do not see any movements in the sidewalk in the next two weeks I shall be forced to consider leaving my partner card.

Yours Faithfully,

Matthew Squire

When I was 5, for my birthday, my parents brought me a ticket to go to Camp Nou.

The next day I woke up, I make the bed and I was very happy because I had never seen a football match in my whole life. Then, we go to Barcelona by car, at 10:00 we were there my dream come true, I was there in the real stadium that I have seen it in photos I was so happy.

The match had to start at 12:00 and for waiting to start the match we went to the official FCB shop, we buy nothing there but we saw Messi with the new official t-shirt of barça. I took a photo with him and he gifted me the new barça t-shirt, I was surprised but also very happy.

And then the match started, me and my fathers were at the bottom of the stadium, there I was able to see the players training and live the feelings of the players when they scored. When the match ended we went back to Igualada, my city, with my new t-shirt of Messi. I will always remember that day because it was the best day of my life.

When I was a child my father brought me to see my first match in FCB stadium, I was nervous because i never seen one before.

When I was going there he started telling me the spectacular that is to go in the FCB stadium, like see in live players like Messi, Iniesta, Henry…

So when we arrived at Barcelona the stadium was full of people and we had the exclusivity to sit in a good place of the stadium.

We saw the match and when we were about to get out we saw Xavi Hernandez in the Parking of the Camp nou. My father told me that he was a player of the team and I couldn’t believe it! We went closer to him, and he saw my surprised face he smiled. He talked with my father about the match and he told me: “Did you liked the game? I said yes, with a nervous voice. Than my father told him if we could get a photo with him, he said yes, no problem. So when we were about to leave he signed my T-shirt and he told me that if i come to the stadium someday.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to complain about an incident that took place last match of Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. The incident has left me without my money and my popcorn.

At night of the last Wednesday 25st March I decided to go to see the match of Chelsea in his stadium Stamford Bridge. Furthermore, I had dinner before the match to not lose time and see all the match, nevertheless, when there were 30 minutes to finish the match I was hungry and I decided to buy popcorn in a vending machine. Firstly I selected the popcorn and then I put the money necessary to buy the popcorn and in the end, the machine swallowed my money but it didn’t give me the popcorn. 

I contacted with a worker but he said me that he had just to overlook and if I wanted to contact with someone to complain I had to write on this mail.

I’m very disappointed with the treatment I had received from your workers and I would be very grateful if you return my money. In addition, if I don’t hear from you, I will not return to this stadium.

I look forward to receiving your reply.

Yours faithfully

When I was young I had a brilliant experience that it was very impressive for me.

It was my birthday and my parents give me one of the best presents I’ve ever had, they were tickets for going to see Football Club Barcelona versus Stuttgart, the quarter finals match at Camp Nou, with my parents.

They gave me the present the same day that it was the match, so after five minutes of happiness, we took the car and we went to Barcelona.

When we arrived I was shocked as I had never ever seen the stadium before and it was just amazing. I remember the face of the people there they all were happy, nervous and anxious for the match and I think I was like them. We entered to the stadium and we sat at our seat. Then we just waited for the match to start.

Today I still remember how I feel that day, I also remember that Barcelona won 4-0, however I don’t care about the result, it was in that moment that I understood what it means being a ``culé´´, to form part of what I consider the best team in the world.

-Pau: And you?

-Guillem: Pretty good, thanks.    

-Roger : Have you heard about PSG´s bid for Messi?

-Guillem: Yes, about 400 million euros right?

-Pau: Yes, but Manchester City also want to sign him.

-Roger: I don’t think Messi will go to another club. In my opinion he will stay at Barcelona.

-Marcos: But if those teams put in a good offer to Barcelona then I’d like to see what happens.

-Roger: But Barcelona is the club of his childhood.

-Pau: Many people say that Messi is the only good player at FC Barcelona

-Marcos: But we all know that's not true, Neymar, Suarez and Iniesta, are good players too.

-Guillem: Messi could be the best player in any team, Pau...

-Roger: And what do you think about their salaries?           :

-Marcos: I don't think that they're ok.

-Pau: But football generates a lot of money.

-Roger: In my opinion, they earn too much money for just kicking one ball.

-Guillem: But you have to take into account all of the business behind that ball, like all of the sponsors.

-Marcos: And what do you think about FCB stadium?

-Pau: FCB stadium is one of the most legendary stadiums with a lot of fans and an incredible history.         

-Roger: But the stadium is a bit old and others like MCI have a more modern stadium.

-Marcos: But remember that it will be redeveloped between 2017-2021!

-Pau: It will be one of top 3 stadiums in the world.

-Marcos: But it will cost a lot of money to build the new stadium.

-Guillem: FCB can afford to invest in a new stadium.

-Roger: But in a few years BARCELONA won’t be able to pay that amount of money.

-Pau: I don’t think so, in my humble opinion Barcelona earn a lot of money as they have so many sponsors.

-Marcos: Pau, I disagree that sponsors aren’t a major part of Barcelona's income I think they also earn money with the stadium and partners.

-Guillem: Sponsors are very important for the future of the club.

-Roger: In my professional experience in the 80´s when football wasn’t as developed as today teams didn't have as much money as teams today.

-Pau:  Personally, I agree with you, football was more attractive because players played for the football and not for the money.  

-Marcos: But Pau, Football in the 80´s wasn't as good as it is now.

-Guillem: It was Marcos, it was....

-Roger: well, I have to return home or my wife will kill me. Bye!

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing today to complain about an incident that took place last day at one of your vending machines on camp nou. The incident has left me without my money and without my water, it has also caused me a great deal of inconvenience.

Yesterday, Saturday 21st November, when the football match ended I went to a vending machine inside the stadium to buy fresh water. I selected the water in the screen of the vending machine, I put 1.20$ and the machine swallow my money but it don't give me my water.

I contacted the worker and he informed me that they can't do nothing to give me the water because he could see no reason why the machine didn't give me the water. He said me that if I want to claim my water I have to contact on this email that is why I’m writing now.

I am very unhappy with the treatment I have received from your workers. Now I don’t have my water and even my money, I would be really satisfied if you send me the money, now I don't need the water. If I don’t hear more from you in the next month I shall be forced to consider moving to another team.

I look forward to hearing from you very soon.

Yours faithfully
