So, a Christmas message probably won't be sending any more of these.

Thank the Lord, I hear you say, before Christmas Day.

I might, but it'll be if something special happens.

And the Christmas message is about goals, wonderful goals.

We're watching a title challenge wither on the vine at Barcelona

because when La Mien Amal doesn't play, a subject that I've talked with you about before,

they don't win. Five times in the L'League, he's been absent from the starting 11 they've taken one point

they're on a run of dreadful form but the principal thing even above when you look at the

mistakes they made in the matches where they've been defeated against Laganese or Las

Parmas or where they've dropped points at Bettis and Seltavigo from winning positions.

Simple fact is that Levin Dowski, without being in any way mean-spirited, Ebenezer Scrooge about him,

when Basona aren't dominating a game and feeding him brilliant chances, it's as if he becomes

invisible, certainly a passenger.

Bassohn are consistently playing 10 versus 11 when they are not dominant enough to feed

his finishing power. Other teams play through him. Now, at the age he's reached, maybe he physically can't get

about anymore and with the ball for Barcelona drop and associate and make play and in turn

and arrive on to cross us into the box. Maybe he can't. Because Basona were dominant this season, he did really special

things against Bayern Munich, particularly against Madrid and the classical, but his numbers

totted up. And I think that a lot of people these days judge on stats rather than going through the

effort of watching performances all the time.

So far from being any kind of thinly veiled attack on Levantowski,

what I'm telling you is genuinely accurate.
