After his record breaking feats against AC Milan last night, oddly Lionel Messi isn’t trending in Argentina or Spain. Well what do you think is trending then?
Foo Fighters, the American rock band, and it’s lead singer Dave Grohl are currently trending in Buenos Aires. While former Barcelona player, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is hogging all the web space in Spain.
Dressed in samurai whites and sporting a ninja ponytail like a model from the Giorgio Armani stable, Ibra was in fine form yesterday. Not on the pitch but off it.
To cut short a lengthy tirade about Barcelona being favoured by the match officials – Ibra professed his love for Jose Mourinho.
He said, he now understood how the Madrid manager felt every time his side was crushed by a rampant Barca side or the favoured side.
I’m not sure whether he understood Mou when he swapped him for an older player ( Read: Samuel Eto’o) at Inter Milan.
Ibra has a bone to pick with the ref. Which is perfectly acceptable to me.
But what the fuck is Nicklas Bendtner’s problem?
Nicklas magically fails to nick the ball into the net against Barcelona just a year ago and here he is again reminding us that he once used to play Champions League football. Pipe down Nick.
Moving on other pressing issues on hand.
one of the two Messi’s goals from the spot last night has been sponsored by the famous Milan Lab.
They have successfully preserved Alessandro Nesta in a ice box so long that he froze in the penalty box while trying to mark Sergio Busquets.
He pulled the Barca player down while a corner was being taken and the ref did not need a few synchronised somersaults and a rehearsed cry for medical attention from Busquests to award Barca a penalty.
And Fabregas is looking more and more like a Blaugrana star as the season wears on. Last night he was the first of many others to surround the referee demanding for a card after fouls on his team mates. How typical…as Mourinho would have said.
Guess what is trending in the United Kingdom?
BURGER KING

No it is not because of this cringeworthy Burger King advert staring David Beckham, where he hams us with the few lines he had to deliver. It is because, Burger King is going public. It means their shares will be listed on the New York stock exchange. Not that I care but I fear for Beckham’s compatriot fat Frank. Don’t get the joke. I know.
