Iker on twitter!!!

September 28, 2010

Unfortunately, it’s only in the form of a picture tweeted by Álvaro Arbeloa, but it’s a start, no?

The tweet says: “we’ve finished eating dinner and we’re going to go rest now.  Iker sends all you twitterers his regards!!!”

I hope Álvaro told Iker this was for twitter, to get him used to that idea so that one day he can become the fifth musketeer!

And we also found out from Álvaro that the players are sharing rooms…

Álvaro tweets: “we’re already in the hotel.  This time around, we have to share rooms.  I’m with Xabi Alonso.  Regards to everyone!”

The hotel they’re at, the Hotel La Côte Saint Jacques, only has 32 rooms and suites, which is why they have to share.

However, apparently Mou has his own 80 square meter suite!  And I’d really like to find out the rest of the room assignments, although I think I can guess most of them.

Meanwhile, Sergio also tweeted a photo – and to the surprise of everyone, he didn’t make a thumbs up pose.  I wonder if this picture was taken from the balcony of their room?  The view behind them, or what we can see of it, looks amazing.  What’s not amazing is that mustachy thing on Sergio’s face.  And the fact that he’s departed from the center part.  Maybe he was tired of looking like Sami?

“A photo with el Pipa for the twitterers… a hug.”

They are adorable, no?

    You nearly gave me a heart attack! When I read the new post notification on my blackberry email I was like, holy shit Iker!! I really want him to have twitter. But a photo is a start. LOL on Sergio’s moustache! Hahaha.. Maybe he’s channeling the french men, ou la la..

        Me too! What’s up with that? Sergio just slips under the radar, and half the time Álvaro does too!

    Hmmm I guess the room assignments will be like: Ronaldo with Marcelo, Pepe with Carvalho, Iker with Sergio Ramos, Higuain with Di maria, Ozil with Khedira, Lass with Benzema, Arbeloa with Xabi Alonso, and the canteras and 2 subs goalie!!

    I believe i would be 80% correct! Anyone think so???

      I’m guessing Sergio’s rooming with Higuaín, from the picture!

    I like that Álvaro seems to have a similar pro-Twitter agenda in mind… Slowly but surely, they’re going to wear Iker and Chori down, and force them to start tweeting!

    Sergio really needs to step up his picture-taking game – how can he have gone this long without mastering the one-armed self-shot?

    And Iker needs to be like Puyi, give everyone one of his new razors. (Anything to get that crap off of Sergio’s face. It’s gone beyond stubble and is now venturing into p*rnstache territory. Ick.)

    I almost spat apple juice on my friend when I read “Iker” and “twitter” in the same title. Alvaro’s so freakin’ nice! I bet Iker had no idea that this was for twitter but due to Alvaros’s amazingness, he knew we’d all be pleased to see our handsome captain. (Okay a little more that just pleased 😉 )

    ;o how come I haven’t seen that photo before?! Lol at Sergio’s disgustache 😆
    Nope, still love him.
    Holding the camera like that makes him look like he’s reaching for something. Me, per chance? 😀 No, probably his purse..

    I don’t think I’ll be happy until Arbeloa tweets a “Here’s a pic of my sleeping roomie” photo.

    I’m sort of imagining Marcelo and Pepe fighting to be Ronaldo’s roomie…

    The list of roomies from the twitter of a Marca journalist:

    Iker-Diarra,CR7-Carvalho,Pipa-DiMaría,Pepe-Marcelo,Xabi-Arbeloa,Ozil-Khedira,Lass-Karim,Ramos-J.Carlos ,Granero-Dudek y Mateos-Adán

      After Carvalho’s AS interview, I’m VERY afraid for us if he and Cristiano are sharing a bathroom…

      Also, I hope Carvalho is ok to play tonight, he’s such an excellent defender.
