Athletic Bilbao wow! 4-0.

And Pique can go f*** himself after his comments after the Super Cup. Dude is more worried about Real than celebrating with his teammates. Isn't the 1st time either.

West Brom are also facing an anxious wait over £12million striker Salomon Rondon, as they await international clearance from the Russian FA.

Albion agreed a deal for the Venezuela international on Monday and have received the necessary documentation from his previous club, Zenit St Petersburg, and the English FA.

But Rondon will be unable to play unless the Russian FA sign off the paperwork 90 minutes before their game against Watford at Vicarage Road. On Friday night Albion were resigned to being without the 25-year-old.

true story, I didn't even know the Spanish Super Cup was today. 1st leg? More impressed with the 0 than the 4 goals TBH. With the 2nd leg being on Monday I don't know that Barca can recover but I wouldn't put it past them.

Yea as I said before - these trophies don't mean much. I hope Enrique gives his starters an off. They were cleared gassed from the get go. Who cares about these titles?!? La liga and Champions league is all that matters. I actually hope Barca loses early in Copa.

I don't think it's a big deal if he said that considering the independence movement in Spain and Catalonia.

Don't think he was speaking about the movement. He's made comments before during celebrations about Real. Like thanking the singer, who performed at Cristiano's birthday party after we got beat by Atletico, after winning the CL. Dude is always thinking of Real instead of enjoying the moment.
