Was Thierry Henry back for the game? Saw him sitting watching Arsenal Sunday on tv.

Speaking of Spain, they are out of the U20 as Mustacchio scored a brace for Italy.
I just wanted to say Mustacchio.

He should have tucked it away a little better. The goalkeeper nearly got it.

Enter Torres or Holden (Me thinks it will be Holden) - one of which will make quite the impression with this chance. This could be the break that Deuce needs to a)recharge the batteries and/or b)see first hand that there are people behind him who can challenge for that spot.

That was a fantastic goal. Thing was, up to that point Almeria was playing well, holding their shape and making a few chances when they could escape into the middle third. They even did well after that playing a disciplined defensive game. Must be nice for a manager having skill like that at your disposal.

I believe he may have supplanted Henry. He's really an exciting player and a testament to Barca's youth system. If Real built their club the right way they wouldn't need to spend 300 mil on transfers.
