Back on this platform. Let's see who's still here. My goal is to not be too often here, unless the community makes me change my mind.

The worst about Srebrenica is the wide public's ignorance about Serbia refusing to apologize for the genocide to this day. No healing until this happens. A dark reality, just a week after Ustaše were applauded in Zagreb.

TUESDAY COLUMN🗞️ Last night #GironaFC slipped to defeat, leaving them just three points above the relegation zone😓 After a dream season, and a European debut against the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and PSG, it could all end in disaster. But how did it happen? 👇 @jdeposicion.bsky.social ✍️

Gironas downfall explained ⬇️

🗞️In our latest column piece, we explain how things have gone so drastically wrong for Girona in recent months. 😳With six games to go, could Girona return to Segunda after finishing 3rd last year? ✍️ @jdeposicion.bsky.social www.football-espana.net/2025/04/22/c...

Good time to repost my latest article after the 5-4 Barça victory against Benfica — arguably the worst game the team has played, three weeks after crushing Real Madrid to claim the Supercup. Why it keeps happening & why you should accept it's a double-edged sword.

One player people forgot about is Ansu Fati. His lack of availability basically makes him somewhat useless in the current squad, especially if Rashford arrives. Not anything against him, but the space his wages occupy could be in better use with someone else. Flick has made his case clear.

First victory for Valencia since the sacking of Baraja. Would be probably meaningless under any other circumstances, but the boys have never needed a victory more.

Coaching decisions are odd — we know that we don't know as much as they do. But the anxiety, perhaps what they see differently lead to different decisions, often illogical to the naked eye. This is how I've felt about McAtee—and the lack of playing time. Was today the start...of a new chapter?

Leaving my parents' home. Been inactive as I had to take care of my stepfather, who's having the MND — the same Illness Stephen Hawking was a victim of. Difficult situation given other challenges, but by tomorrow will be back in town (Madrid).

Merry Christmas.

As the year comes to an end, and with a new President in charge of the RFEF, what happened to the people most affected by Luis Rubiales' infamous exit? ✍️ @jdeposicion.bsky.social on Montse Tome's Spain tenure. www.football-espana.net/2024/12/10/t...

History was made today. Unfortunately for Barça, they're on the losing end as Léganes defeated them for the first time, ever. They defended well, although not much better than any mid-block in La Liga. Barcelona are at risk on the long-term, due to to a systematic failure.

Today was wild. I tweeted about Gukesh winning the World Championship — I was unaware that the TN governor was called Stalin. All I wrote was one line. Of surprise. Little did I know this would become my most-liked tweet, and more importantly WWIII btw indians.

Juventus winning 2-0 vs ManC, Barça winning 3-2 away, we definitely live in an interesting world. Griezmann and Alvarez are the new killer combo, and Lamine Yamal can't stop feeding the entire team.

🗞️In our latest column piece, we analyse where Tome has taken the teams since taken over, and the things that have not changed. 🇪🇸Have Spain and the RFEF listened to the women who raised their voices? ✍️ @jdeposicion.bsky.social 👇 www.football-espana.net/2024/12/10/t...

🗞️TUESDAY COLUMN 🇪🇸We're coming up for 18 months on from Spain's triumph in the 2023 World Cup, where they beat England in the final. An event that was kept in the headlines for weeks on end, by the infamous Luis Rubiales kiss. Yet what has happened since? ✍️ @jdeposicion.bsky.social 👇

news.22bet.com/predictions/... Unsurprisingly, my preview turned right: many yellow cards, and a boring 1-0 win for Getafe. Espanyol are truly awful, although not as bad as Real Valladolid.

One of the worst behaviours amid the fanbase is looking at an exception and saying „ but it wouldn't work against Bayern“. It's a logical fallacy called the Straight Line Instinct, which assumed development will remain the same until forever. It won't, because every game is different.

Gavi-Pedri partnership seemed problematic, although it's likely to be because of the absence of Casadó. Las Palmas could easily send balls in behind without much sophistication.

According to Relevo, Javier Tebas sent a letter of complaint to Real Madrid about Vinicius, but for a different reason than you'd expect. Vinicius shared a story about the game at Anfield, where TNT's logo can be seen. He mentioned that this is piracy. It drives me crazy, as it wasn't La Liga.

Mallorca's 3-2 win against Valencia tonight demonstrates that Valencia is suffering mentally too. Sure, you can talk tactics, but it's not the first time they concede a comeback in the last quarter of the game. It's the 5th or the 6th. Most of these were before DANA. Worrying.

Not sure why Lionel Messi has been nominated for the Year's Best Player. Harms his legacy more than anything. He doesn't want it, and probably a majority of the world doesn't want that either.

What a player Barrenetxea is — to not forget the goal + assists of Kubo, full of confidence. If Real Sociedad needs one thing, it's exactly that.

Camavinga injured, no specified date of return. A hard knock for Real Madrid.

Maurizio Sarri is rumoured to be the next in line as the Serbia NT Head Coach. Fits perfectly but wonder whether the RSS isn't only using it to deviate attention from Piksi, as they always do.

Mascherano joins Inter Miami as head coach. Yeah that's just Barça FC.

Unironically, Vinicius' injury is a blessing in disguise for RMA & Kylian Mbappé.

James Maddison's first goal against Manchester City is a run that he often does. The movement of the other Tottenham players to create the space for him is just as important. www.nytimes.com/athletic/594...

Florentino Pérez's second man opposed La Liga continuing to give 8M for clubs in La Liga F, destined for Women's Football development, saying „ it's too much“. Putellas said a while ago that „ women's football doesn't need Real Madrid“. She was right.

Countering Getafe isn't as hard as it sounds. As often as we've talked about their frustrating strategies, we often talk about curation instead of prevention. Tactical prep is about forcing opponents out of their prep, like in chess. Give Getafe the ball —they're completely clueless with it.

More than 50 cases of minors being 'trafficked' in Catalunya are being investigated by FIFA. Clubs would face a two-years transfer ban and a fine if going true. FIFA is in contact with the parents of the players & wanted the clubs about it. www.marca.com/futbol/2024/...

Good. Really. And no, it's not a "liberal echo chamber." Many people just got tired of Elmo's never-ending delirium pushed down their throats on a daily basis. Enough is enough. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

Rayo Vallecano has been given a 15-days ultimatum to improve its stadium by the Madrid council. Incidents keep happening where the safety of fans is jeopardized, including some who needed the ambulance due to the poor conditions of the stadium.

How many of y'all want a story about the migration of orgs/clubs to BlueSky

Ayoze Pérez, on getting called up w/ La Roja: „No one tells you. There’s a pre-list but that’s 60 names. I found out the way everyone did: I saw my name on the list. There were a few seconds shock, then immense happiness“

Curious to see if it's similar to Twt: Which club do you support?

Says a lot, especially for RMA.

Supporting a football team is tribal but fans should not blindly defend their club. The role of a fan is to support their team and challenge their club. A team are individuals with feelings, a club - particularly at an elite level - is a business whose interests do not by definition align with fans.

Absolutely hate Weghorst for celebrating after what happened in the Hungarian camp. It's called basic human decency, and by the looks of it, he doesn't have it. Absolutely shameless/classless to celebrate when a life was on the line.

Belarus' game in Northern Ireland this evening is further validation for a pariah state, through a team of hand-picked regime apologists. Nothing is improving back home and their presence in international & club comps is an unwelcome complication for everyone: www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Find it incredible how Navarro finds his spot in a stacked U21 Spanish team. The way he glides across the pitch, with limited space by himself with the ball, and breaks formations down...is simply unexplainable. He's by far one of the most underrated talents of the generation.
