… this about how Xabi and Cristiano are the “unofficial” third and fourth captains of Real Madrid?

Well, this was very apparent in the last game against Racing.  Watch a video here of Xabi and Cristiano talking to and instructing their teammates.  These two know how to lead.

    These two were born to be leaders.However, It was funny how C.Ronaldo kept grabbing Ozil’s arm though lol

    Love that clip , including Angel and Mou. I don’t think Cris gets nearly enough credit for his leadership on the field [and off it as well, from what his teammates say].

    In that video, does Cris call Higuain “Pipa!” at around 0:36-0:37? Why does that strike me as adorable? XD

    Let’s not forget that Cris actually IS captain of another team…he may have been given the title as a favor to a dying man, but he has definitely grown into this role for Portugal…

    Haha, great video! I love how Cris was gripping onto Ozil’s arm like a parent crossing the street with a toddler. Hmm Cris and Xabi; wouldn’t mind getting a few orders from those two 😉

    The supposed reputation behind Cris really undermines him as a leader. I LOVE the way he was holding on to Ozil. I thought that was just too adorable. Xabi is just freaking awesome and a true leader. He’s definitely the daddy of the team.

    Posting this here because it has to do with Xabi, but here’s a link to an interview with him and pictures of him rocking a bowtie.
