Barca Buzz: A Quiet Reunion

While most of the Blaugrana world was caught up in the excitement of Ibrahimovic's presentation, an odd training session took place yesterday with Barca coach Pep Guardiola and ten players in attendance: Pique, Puyol, Iniesta, Xavi, Busquets and Dani Alves returning from thier international leave; as well as Marquez, Maxwell, Henry and Hleb who are recovering from injury.

The beginning of the training was marked with greetings and hugs between the players as well as their coach, all so glad to see one another. Don't they look adorable?

It's like Henrique mentioned in his blog: "Another thing I've noticed at Barca is the fantastic atmosphere among the squad. The group is tightly knit and everybody speaks to each other. I knew it was a very united squad, but I didn't imagine just how much. We joke around, but when the time comes to get down to work, we work hard and seriously, so I'm really happy to be with this team."

He is so right. The level of unity between the players is one of the most beautiful things about the team, and one of the things that makes us to proud to support Barca.

Only: What's with Pep going completely bald all of a sudden? Why Pep, why do that to us?
