For those Ibrahimovic supporters, you have finally gotten your first dose of what he has to offer in big games. When the deal went down, George and I mentioned that Ibrahimovic was not a big-game player. Part of what he was brought to do was score in those games and he will have to surpass the player he was replacing.

Samuel Eto'o is not a gamer, he is a big game hunter. Catalan eyes will have their peripheral vision focused on what their former Pichichi is doing on the other side of the Mediterranean.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was slammed by both Spanish and Italian media already after his pallid performance in the European Supercup. He showed next to nothing against a Shakhtar Donetsk side that was very defensive and took Barca almost to penalties. Ibrahimovic was not counted on and Pedro eventually would give more points to the Barca youth side.

You know that somewhere in Milan, where Samuel Eto'o is living, he must be giggling. He will forever be a Blaugrana. He will always be happy if and when Barca win another title from now to the end of time.

Feeling? Well Guardiola might have the medal, but he is starting to realize what he no longer has.
