Solid Start to La Liga as Classico Ends In Draw

La Liga finally kicked off at the weekend and with it saw a return of two of the most high profile bosses in recent memory - SB and JM both return to their respective former clubs, Barcelona and Real Madrid, with unfinished business listed as official priorities.

SB found the going alittle tough in his return to Barcelona, a club which saw him reach the greatest of heights, a prolific Treble in what seems like many moons ago. Some might say a solid start, with zero loses after 8 games, however far too many draws at this stage, including a late goal to take split honours in the Classico - perhaps buying SB alittle more time with the fierce Barca media and fans.

Real Madrid have also started the season solid, and in somewhat sizzling form at stages, JM obviously relishing the chance to work with some of his favourite talents in particluar Cristiano Ronaldo.

"I'm just glad to be back where I am loved - here in Madrid." JM said to a packed media conference. Perhaps in reference to his somewhat difficult time in England.

"We have trophies in mind here and I believe with this team we can acheive great things."
