Goal.com 50: Carles Puyol (22)
At No.22 in the Goal.com 50 is Barcelona's iconic captain, Carles Puyol...
Lest we forget, Barcelona started the season in very poor fashion indeed. The
word 'crisis', and various synonyms, predictably started doing the rounds
rather rapidly.
It was, of course, a false dawn. As soon as Barca got into their stride, they
blew opponents away with regularity.
Due to their attacking exuberance, it is easy to forget that Barca boasted
one of the best defences on the domestic and European fronts during the last
campaign. Now, it must be stressed that Carles Puyol played only 28 league
games, the least in his last five seasons at the club. Yet, with Puyol in
full flow on the pitch, his team-mates could not help but rise to another
level, and never was this more evident than in the two Clasicos.
The first clash between Barca and their eternal rivals Real Madrid came at
the worst possible time for Los Merengues. They had just sacked Bernd
Schuster, who had declared that they had no chance of winning at the Camp
Nou, and had thrown Juande Ramos into the hot seat, fresh off a disastrous
spell at Tottenham Hotspur. Meanwhile, Barca had just beaten Sevilla and
Valencia 3-0 and 4-0 respectively. Surely the home side would win, and win
handsomely?
Eighty-three minutes in, however, and it looked like being a damp squib from
a Barcelona perspective. Samuel Eto'o had missed a penalty, and Real Madrid
suddenly looked like a well-organised, determined unit who were not going to
let their rivals score. Then Barca won a corner.
It is easy to say these things in hindsight, of course, but watching Puyol as
he strode towards the box in preparation for the corner was to see a man who
had decided to take it upon himself to change things once and for all. Sure
enough, the captain rose to meet the corner, and his header bounced in off
Samuel Eto'o's knee, crushing Madrid's spirits.
By the time the second Clasico rolled around, Barca were widely accepted to
be the best footballing side on the planet. Still, they were yet to actually
win anything. Meanwhile, Real Madrid were on a record winning run, and had
somehow kept the gap at the top to four points.
Puyol, meanwhile, went into the game after picking up a yellow card minutes
after coming on as a substitute in the first leg of the Champions League
semi-final, ruling him out for the second leg. Then, 13 minutes into the
game, some shocking marking from the Blaugrana allowed Gonzalo Higuain to
head his side ahead.
Thierry Henry equalised soon after, and then, on 20 minutes, Barca won a free
kick that was, to all intents and purposes, a virtual corner. Up strode
Puyol. Seconds later, he had gone one better than in the first Clasico,
powering a header past Iker Casillas to give his side the lead and open the
floodgates. Barcelona ended up thrashing Real Madrid 6-2.
And of course, Puyol was back for the Champions League, where he played at
right-back as part of a makeshift Barca defence. He was up against Wayne
Rooney for most of the match, but in reality, Rooney was up against him.
Puyol showed another string to his bow in Rome, bombarding down the right
flank with intent and nullifying Rooney's involvement completely.
The enduring images from Puyol's season are him repeatedly holding aloft
Barca's three trophies, and that says it all. As important as his various
footballing contributions were throughout the season, it is his role as a
captain of the troops during this historic campaign, especially coming as it
did after such a poor previous season, for which he deserves the most credit.
