the chosen one

11 hours to go… and Real Madrid’s players have arrived at the Bernabéu for the concentración.

And if you care at all, here are Sara Carbonero’s thoughts on and prediction for the game:

1.  Result of the game: 2-1

2.  Who is better, Cristiano or Messi?  Messi’s one step ahead.

3.  Which team will win the Liga?  Real Madrid.  El Clásico will almost decide the Liga.

She’ll be covering the game for Telecinco.  If Iker messes up (and I’m praying he won’t), will she criticize him?  Where is she going to draw the line between her professional career and her personal life?  She should have listened to herself and not mixed those things up… I guess we’ll get a chance to see how credible she is.

Meanwhile, Álvaro Arbeloa is the chosen one to pose with the shirts of Real Madrid and Barcelona in today’s edition of AS, just like Xabi, Marcelo and Pipita before him.
