Good morning, dear Osasunists! Here we are again after our summer break and ready to inform about our loved team, spread the English culture and publish our students' articles!
When I was writing the title of the first entry of this season I started dreaming of players like Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, Neymar,...but then I had to write a "B", as we are in the B division, we are playing in the B League and we are watching B players,...Osasuna is no longer in First Division, in the so-called "best League of the world" ( I don't agree ), or we are not enjoying with the game of players like Messi or Ronaldo.
Our first rival is FC Barcelona, but they are the youngsters of the powerful team of Barcelona who dream to play at the near stadium as they play at the Mini Stadi, but they dream of Nou Camp. The name of our League is Liga Adelante, an euphemism for a division as many clubs have a single opportunity to avoid fading out: Logroñes, Murcia, Sabadell, Albacete,...!
FC Barcelona B's coach is not Guardiola but he is one of his followers: Sacristan who uses his players for their future in the first team of the club. Last season they finished third in La Liga Adelante and we must bear in mind that they cannot upgrade division!!
As the main team in Barcelona didn't play a good season in First Division last year, there may be changes in Sacristan's team. Thus, they didn't have good result in pre-seasons matches as many of the important players were used in Luis Enrique's team. Therefore, they lost in a match against another Liga Adelante's team: Llagostera.
Osasuna, on the other hand, want to go back to First Division as soon as possible, but there are many economical problems which have left a mark on us, their supporters, and we know they may have influence whitin the season. As we used to say last season, our main strength must be El Sadar and it is the key point for our return to First Division.
Another key point is a motivating coach, and I think that Jan Urban is the perfect one. He played for the team from the bottom to the top of the historical games. But we will see if the new players will give a plus for a team that was relegated to a division that no one wants to be.
GORA OSASUNA! AUPA ROJILLOS!
