To see what this is all about, see Part I.
6) A World Cup that you will never forget
I will never forget the World Cup of 2010 in South Africa. I am Spaniard and this was our World Cup. Spain has been one of the favorites to win the title a few times, but never managed to win. Then in they 2010 finally became World Champions. I loved the Spanish team and their football style which dominated an era. It was wonderful to watch the team around Casillas, Ramos, Xavi, Iniesta , Villa, etc. And of course, in a less positive way, I will always remember the sound of a Vuvuzela.
7) A team you would like to sign for
All my life I have been a huge fan of Real Madrid, and my whole childhood I dreamed to play in the Santiago Bernabeu. The atmosphere is not always the best and sometimes even the own players have to struggle with the whistles, but that is because at the Bernabeu only the best performance is good enough. When you play for the best team, you can not afford to relax one second. This pushes to give always your best. But for the big games, the atmosphere in Madrid is the best and I would love to be on that pitch on a Clasico.
8) A technical gesture in which you would like to be an expert
I started my career as an amateur football player as a keeper when I was 6. Then at the age of around 10 one thing became pretty clear: I would always be too small for a keeper. After trying all positions I am now defender for around 20 years. Why I tell you that? My skills are definitely in defending, so my skills in dribbling are not the best.
Like you see in the meme, I love nutmegs. In amateur football, this can sometimes give you more satisfaction than a goal, specially against a friend. Thus I would say any technical gesture that leads to a nutmeg.
9) A player you would like to receive advice from
Raul has always been my role model. I always admired his skills. But it was not his skills that made him my idol, it was his dedication and his attitude. He fought for every ball in every scene, always believing in his chances and making pressure to the opponent. He was a real gentleman on the pitch and was a great example for good sportsmanship. And in my opinion he was often smarter than his opponent, allowing him to be quicker on the ball or stand at the right spot and making the right decision. For all this reasons I would love to have a chat with him and getting advice.
Another reason is that I learned from a former co-player that as a defender you learn more talking and analyzing your game with an striker than with other defenders. You have to know how the striker see's things to be a good defender.
10) A team that you will hate all your life
For this number I will not post any picture, because I would hate to look at it. I'm also not really a fan from bashing or hating on anyone or any team, so I will make this short. I absolutely hate FC Barcelona and I really can't imagine that this will ever change.
