Random: Off To LA... & Geri's Awful Footwear Is Back

- The team's off to L.A. today! The second step of Barca's preseason, after the Wembley Cup, is the United States tour, which will kick off in California (against LA Galaxy - hello there Becks) before the squad continues to San Fransisco and Seattle. Pep's taking the entire squad with him except for Caceres and Hleb, also calling up B-teamers Muniesa, Fontas, Jeffren and Jonathan.

- Speaking of Hleb, after a loan to Inter was supposedly on the cards for him, it looks like he'll actually be headed out to German club Stuttgart instead. The midfielder doesn't want to face language problems again with Italian after he failed to pick up on Spanish after a year with Barcelona.

- New Barca signing Keirrison is officially out on loan to Portugese club Benfica for the next year, best of luck to him!

- We've missed Gerard Pique so much, but we're afraid that as he returns, so does his horrid fashion sense... Geri is wearing the most abominable shoes (photos below) on Barca's trip out to the States - what are they supposed to be, anyway? A cross of sorts between sandals and trainers? We're shuddering here. This boy is in desperate need of guidance.
