Juan Mata

[Strike 7,486]

It's not about matches, he's training with the spanish team constantly, and without any rest it can fuck him up, and he's doing the exact same with the olympic team.

yep. that's true. hopefully the management gives him a rest until after the International break

If im not wrong, Mata almost hasnt any vacation. Correct me if Im wrong, but I think that almost right after Euros final (1st July) Mata goes on the preparation before Olympics with Spain U23 (he had maybe few days off) so its seems that he must get some vacations after Olympics. You just cant train all the time by almost two years (2011-2013)

[Sheva. 5,373]

He will surely get a couple weeks off after Spain are done in the Olympics.

[Tomo 21,751]

Haven't the club given him until mid September off.

Has there been a confirmation? Haven't heard anything about it.

[Porthos 35]

like how shy he is in front of the camera. Has a lovely sister too. Gigi is about 4 times as big as him

saw Gigi interviewing Malouda a few days ago and she towered over him & he's 6 foot

can she play RB?

"I don't think this effort will have a negative effect on me for the new season in the Premier League. I am mentally prepared to help the Blues from the first moment. I will be at the coach's disposal whenever he needs me"

He just started his olympic campaign, 15mins ago.. against Japan. Still 0-0.

Spain is in deep shit now. One nil down, one man down.

Indeed, Mata looking good tough, best player on Spanish side..

Agree! Deep down I hope Spain gets knocked out early so Mata can come back to Chelsea soon. But I know Mata would love to win it for his country so I'm going to support him, same goes to Oscar.

[Waterfall 893]

Wouldn't mind Spain getting knocked out early.

If Spain advances as the runner-up, it's Oscar vs Mata

BTW, where is Azpillicueta? On the bench?

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

Romeu is on

Game ended, 1:0 for Japan. I missed the 1st half, but in the 2nd Mata was Spain's best player. Japan missed shitload of great chances but in the end pulled through.
