Luis Suárez has always been a Barça fan

A lot has been said about this superstar signing, the whys and wherefores of his leaving, the contract's contents, his sendings-off in one city and his welcomes in the other, but little has been said about how Suárez feels about his move to the Camp Nou. Few people are aware that ever since the Uruguayan was a youth player in the Uruguay national team, he dreamed of one day playing for Barcelona.

This desire was admitted by the lad himself to journalist Juan José Díaz of Montevideo's newspaper, El Observador. Back then, Suárez had no idea of the dizzying heights he would reach, but the Salto-born youngster from a difficult childhood and tough life in Montevideo was in no doubt that where he wanted to be was in Europe, and if he could choose, Barça.

Díaz, seeing that the player was to sign for the Catalan club, delved into his archives and found an interview with Suárez when the youngster was making a name for himself in the Uruguay youth teams. In the interview, he said that he had always been a Barça fan, apart from a Uruguay one. Today, the player feels that his dream has at last come true, and recalls how he used to turn up to the Uruguay training sessions carrying a backpack with the Barcelona emblem on it. "Hahaha, do you remember that? That grey one? I was always a fan. Let's see what happens; I hope it all goes okay", said Suárez to the same journalist many years later, waiting for the negotiations to follow their course and with the entire footballing world talking about Barça's possible new signing.

vislabraye: . Unlucky 7- 1 and you call than unlucky. They were rather lucky to have come this far.

Yea you right about the words in Bold...


How on earth will someone say the Brazilians were unlucky to have been beaten 7-1 ? What about 3-0 by Netherlands?


But Spain were what? Losing to Netherlands 5-1 and Chile 2-0 respectively!

glitest: SMH

....You just had to repeat that huh?.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!

femi4: They once gave us Romario, Ronaldo, Bebeto, Rivaldo, R carlos, Ronaldinho

But since 2006, they started producing classless players like
Ramirez, Pato, Filipe melo, Rafael, Fred, Jo, David luiz, Hulk

Dam!


How has the mighty fallen?

What about your Alves?


You wey dey beg us make we keep am! ---- u eh!

SammyHoe: Neymar shouldn't belong to the pix... he didn't lose a match while he was in.

Make I commot Neymar replace am with Jo or Ramires?

hiroz: growing as a kid i watched the brazil team to see the flair of the brazilian teams,we learnt words like leg-over,shangalo e.t.c watching the brazil teams display brilliant dribbling and intelligent football.fell in love with romario,ronaldinho,ronaldo the phenomenon,roberto carlos,rivaldo,cafu,kaka.but this 2014 brazil team is bereft of talent,scolari decided to build physical team with rigid perpendicular players playing 'anywhere-belle-face-football'.players like hulk,fred,fernadinho(who played well for man city),gustavo hitler(beards),oscar(who honestly was out of form)and unintelligent defenders(striking-defenders)marcelo and luiz.the only player who played like a true brazillian great was neymar and silva. it is all scolari's fault,he could have picked more creative and strong squad with players like kaka,ronaldinho(who despite their age certainly cant be worse than fred and jo),coutinho(how he got left out is beyond me),lucas moura and 2 great defenders miranda and filipe luis who went all the way with atletico madrid last season.despite hulk and oscar struggling he left willian on the bench.this is definitely the worst brazil team in decades and it is all the fault of scolari who picked a deficient squad based on favoritism. #bringbackoursambabrazil

I strongly agree with you with words in bold...

glitest: Hahaha..... Give him the beating of he's life....Make sure you decorate he's behind.

Yes babe...


But what's the question?

Debroslink: None I repeat NONE of these players man for man is as good as the Brazilian side of 2002 world cup.

I agree with you completely... --- That 2002 team were extra-ordinary, magical, gifted, outstanding...

Smartsyn: I still can't believe that this is the same Brazilian side that won the confederation barely 12months ago...


They are the worst Brazilian side ever, no doubt about it.

Against a Real Madrid sorry Spanish side that 1 year later the Robben-led team dismantled like school-boys in the 1st round...
