I watched Barça win the league from the studio last night. Sometimes, victory and style can only be measured using the Winehouse Scale. Full video? The link is in the bio.

Vinicius is, unquestionably, being bullied, kicked, provoked and racially abused. It’s an outright disgrace. I think Spanish football, media and society would be handling the situation differently if he were a 22 year old white Spaniard .

Ridiculous and inaccurate use of language @BBCNews - do your job. ‘Clashes’ directly implies mutual aggression. These were attacks and there is multiple video evidence of peaceful protesters being beaten. #DutyOfCare

Still in pieces. This isn’t a story about money. Power. Politics. This is a superhuman human who’s given us a tsunami of joy and awe in pieces emotionally because he thought his life and future at the place he loved were assured. But he was betrayed #Messi.

For those who are saying #Messi should have played for free - grow the fuck up. Especially those of you have written ‘should of’ and ‘wasn’t he payed….?’ Get your heads out from up your arses and read up about what’s been happening.

Likely next #Barça President @victor_font “Messi’s people tell me his decision is ‘firm’ but any tiny chance of him staying would be to do with Bartomeu resigning.”.
🎙️@victor_font. "Si hay alguna opción de que Messi se quede, por pequeña que sea,pasa por la dimisión de Bartomeu" . "El entorno de Messi me ha dicho que la decisión es firme". "Esto no es un tema de hace 2 días,es anterior a la derrota de Lisboa. Ya avisamos de que podía pasar"

Those scenes at the end of the City win. Boy, they’re on a war footing. An unleashing of pure, overwhelming competitive aggression and unity of spirit. Not at all sure it was a penno. But there’s a ferocity of attitude which is rare - and usually a precursor of big big things.

A brutal exposition of the barbarity he has to suffer from @vinijr - it’s a side issue that he’s a brilliant, brilliant footballer. No human being, ever, should have to suffer this shit. Or watch it go unpunished.
