El periodista Nacho Peña ha cargado en El Partidazo de COPE contra el último discurso de Joan Laporta, al que ha calificado como "un discurso para los muy cafeteros". Ha advertido al presidente del FC Barcelona que argumentos como la "barcelonitis" o ser el "adalid de la libertad" no le servirán ante la justicia: "Esos discursos populistas para la gente que te va a aplaudir, eso tienes que tener cuidado".Según Peña, el discurso no es válido para su próxima cita judicial, donde la situación será muy diferente. "El día 12 de diciembre delante de la jueza no vale, o sea, ese día hay que ir con pruebas, con explicaciones, y con las ideas muy, muy claras", ha sentenciado.El comentarista ha cuestionado los conceptos que utiliza el presidente culé en su intervención durante este jueves, en un foro organizado por el periódico La Vanguardia, en el que dijo que el Real Madrid era el club del poder mientras que el Barcelona era el club de la libertad.Sobre la idea de ...

The boys are back! And have a football feast prepared as they examine the many ups and downs for Real Madrid and Barcelona over the past couple weeks. First, Madrid stumble yet again away at Elche in an awful performance (8:40). Then, Payton covers Barcelona's glorious return to the Camp Nou vs Athletic Club (21:30), before your hosts turn their attention to a couple exciting midweek Champions League clashes, Real Madrid traveling to Athens to face Olympiacos in a wild back-and-forth affair (32:12), and Payton details Barcelona's disastrous trip to Stamford Bridge against Chelsea (42:30). Then, the domestic struggles continue for Madrid with yet another draw, this time against lowly Girona, that heaps pressure on Xabi Alonso (1:03:02), with Barcelona's fine form continuing against Alaves (1:16:43). Also, Mbappe likely saves Alonso's job with a brace and a great team performance at the San Mames (1:29:38), and Barcelona get a signature win against La Liga rivals Atletico in a thrilling, end-to-end affair (1:41:40).

Transcript:Ca: La Plaça Catalunya brillava amb llums multicolors, il·luminant les cares dels barcelonins que passejaven pel mercat de Nadal.En: Plaça Catalunya shone with multicolored lights, illuminating the faces of the barcelonins who strolled through the Christmas market.Ca: L'aroma de castanyes torrades i vi calent omplia l'aire, jugant amb la música alegre que flotava dels altaveus.En: The aroma of roasted chestnuts and hot wine filled the air, playing with the cheerful music that floated from the speakers.Ca: Martí, Laia i Júlia es movien entre la gentada, buscant el regal perfecte per a la petita germana de Martí.En: Martí, Laia, and Júlia moved among the crowd, searching for the perfect gift for Martí's little sister.Ca: Martí caminava amb les mans a les butxaques, mirant al seu voltant amb una barreja de curiositat i escepticisme.En: Martí walked with his hands in his pockets, looking around with a mix of curiosity and skepticism.Ca: Laia, en canvi, estava en el seu element, amb els ulls brillants d'emoció per cada detall nadalenc.En: Laia, on the other hand, was in her element, her eyes bright with excitement for every Christmas detail.Ca: Júlia, com sempre, anava al mig, intentant equilibri entre l'energia de Laia i la reserva de Martí.En: Júlia, as always, was in the middle, trying to balance Laia's energy with Martí's reserve.Ca: "Va, Martí," va dir Laia amb un somriure entusiasta, "prova fer un galetó de gingebre!En: "Come on, Martí," said Laia with an enthusiastic smile, "try decorating a gingerbread cookie!Ca: Et prometo que et sentiràs més Nadalenc després.En: I promise you'll feel more Christmas-like afterward."Ca: "Martí va bufar una mica, però es va deixar portar.En: Martí sighed a little but went along.Ca:

es divertia decorant els dolços amb sucre glaç, i, poc a poc, se li va suavitzar l'expressió.En: He watched as people enjoyed decorating the sweets with icing sugar, and slowly, his expression softened.Ca: Mentre decoraven les galetes, Martí començava a recordar com, de petit, li encantava fer coses similars amb la seva família.En: While decorating the cookies, Martí began to remember how, as a child, he loved doing similar things with his family.Ca: Veia a Laia rient amb Júlia, i una petita sensació de calidesa començava a acampar en el seu interior.En: He watched Laia laughing with Júlia, and a small sense of warmth began to settle within him.Ca: Després d'acabar, els tres van seguir caminant entre les parades.En: After finishing, the three continued walking among the stalls.Ca: La música alegre i les rialles al seu voltant començaven a contagiar Martí.En: The cheerful music and laughter around them were beginning to affect Martí.Ca: Llavors va ser quan, entre la multitud, va veure una parada petita, amagada en un racó.En: Then, that's when, among the crowd, he spotted a small stand hidden in a corner.Ca: Als prestatges brillaven delicadament unes marionetes tradicionals.En: Traditional puppets shimmered delicately on the shelves.Ca: "La Júlia sempre ha volgut una d'aquestes", va dir Martí, gairebé en murmuri.En: "Júlia has always wanted one of those," Martí said, almost in a murmur.Ca: La pàgina va dibuixar-li un somriure a la cara en veure com la delicadesa de les marionetes era tan perfecta per a la seva germana.En: A smile appeared on his face as he saw how the delicacy of the puppets was so perfect for his sister.Ca: Sense pensar-s'ho dues vegades, va decidir comprar-ne una.En: Without thinking twice, he decided to buy one.Ca: Amb el regal ja embolicat, Martí, Laia i Júlia es van asseure a una terrassa de la plaça, amb tasses de xocolata calenta davant seu.En: With the gift already wrapped, Martí, Laia, and Júlia sat down at a terrace in the square, with cups of hot chocolate in front of them.Ca: Martí, observant l'escuma blanca fondre's a la seva tassa, sentia una alegria tranquil·la i nova.En: Martí, watching the white foam melt into his cup, felt a quiet and new joy.Ca: "Gràcies per animar-me a provar coses noves", va dir als seus amics, mirant-los amb veritable agraïment.En: "Thanks for encouraging me to try new things," he said to his friends, looking at them with genuine gratitude.Ca: "Crec que he redescobert una part de mi que ja no recordava.En: "I think I've rediscovered a part of myself I didn't remember."Ca: "Laia va somriure, i Júlia va assentir, feliç de veure com Martí havia recuperat una mica de la màgia del Nadal.En: Laia smiled, and Júlia nodded, happy to see how Martí had regained a bit of the Christmas magic.Ca: Els tres van continuar parlant, envoltats per la calidesa del moment, gaudint de la bellesa simple d'aquest dia d'hivern a Barcelona.En: The three continued talking, surrounded by the warmth of the moment, enjoying the simple beauty of this winter's day in Barcelona.Ca: I així, entre llums, riures i xocolata calenta, Martí va descobrir que el veritable esperit nadalenc no es troba en els regals mateixos sinó en la alegria de donar-los des del cor.En: And so, among lights, laughter, and hot chocolate, Martí discovered that the true Christmas spirit is not found in the gifts themselves but in the joy of giving them from the heart.

La primera parte del programa la comenzaremos con una noticia seria. El gasto militar de los países europeos ha aumentado. ¿Cuánto tiempo le queda a la UE para prepararse para un potencial ataque de Rusia? Continuaremos discutiendo los planes de la UE para flexibilizar las estrictas normas que regulan la ayuda a los países miembro, con el objetivo de impulsar la oferta de vivienda asequible. ¿Cómo planea lograrlo la UE? En la sección de ciencia, hablaremos de un estudio que asegura que los niños pueden imitar los cuadros del pintor expresionista Jackson Pollock mucho mejor que los adultos. Y, para concluir la primera parte del programa de hoy, hablaremos de otro "crímen del siglo": el robo de caracoles por valor de 90.000 euros a un granjero francés. El resto del episodio de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, el tiempo verbal Present Perfect - Part II. En esta conversación hablaremos del Templo Expiatorio de la Sagrada Familia de Barcelona. El arquitecto de la Basílica fue Antonio Gaudí, e ideó un proyecto tan grande, que pensó no poderse terminar en mucho tiempo. Sin embargo, las obras ya están llegando a la recta final... Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, No es oro todo lo que reluce. La usaremos para hablar de la llegada de Cristóbal Colón a América en 1492, con las ventajas y desventajas que esa colonización trajo, tanto para los pueblos indígenas, como para los colonizadores españoles. Entre la agresividad rusa, Europa aumenta drásticamente el gasto militar La UE combate la crisis de la vivienda relajando las normas y ofreciendo apoyo económico ¿Es la crítica más banal del arte moderno correcta?

  The World Bank reports that, "today, more than half of the world's population – over 4 billion people – lives in cities." It also estimates that this shift is going to continue, in fact to DOUBLE to nearly 70% – or 7 out of every 10 people will live in cities by 2050. That's only 25 years away. At the same time, extreme weather events are increasingly devastating cities – we have all witnesses how Hurricane Melissa decimated Jamaica last week, for example, destroying home and businesses, schools, houses of worship, government buildings, everything.

una nit freda d'hivern, però a dins la sala d'espera de pediatria tot intentava semblar acollidor.En: It was a cold winter night, but inside the pediatric waiting room, everything tried to seem welcoming.Ca: Núria, amb el seu somriure atent, caminava pel passadís.En: Núria, with her attentive smile, walked down the corridor.Ca: Faltaven pocs dies per Nadal i l'hospital es veia més buit amb

delicats, passaven el Nadal aquí.En: The children, however, still delicate, spent Christmas here.Ca: Oriol, amb només set anys, estava assegut sobre el seu llit hospitalari.En: Oriol, only seven years

Christmases, always full of joy and sweets.Ca: Un matí, mentre Núria portava la safata amb l'esmorzar, va veure la tristesa en els ulls d'Oriol.En: One morning, while Núria brought the breakfast tray, she saw the sadness in Oriol's eyes.Ca: "Hem de fer alguna cosa especial per ell i els altres nens," va pensar.En: "We have to do something special for him and the other children," she thought.Ca: Va decidir organitzar una festa de Nadal, però l'hospital estava sota mínims i els recursos escassejaven.En: She decided to organize a Christmas party, but the hospital was running at minimum capacity

help.Ca: Van decorar el passadís amb flocs de neu de paper fets a mà i un petit arbre de plàstic.En: They decorated the hallway with handmade paper snowflakes and a small plastic tree.Ca: Els voluntaris van oferir-se a preparar activitats i, fins i tot, va aconseguir una visita especial: un Pare Noel disposat a repartir somriures.En: Volunteers offered to prepare activities and she even

salutacions càlides i la mà de Núria estrenyent la seva, va somriure per primer cop des de feia dies.En: Surrounded by warm greetings and Núria's hand holding his, he smiled for the first time in days.Ca: El seu cor es va omplir d'alegria.En: His heart filled with joy.Ca: Amb la festa acabada, Núria sentí una pau interior.En: With the party over, Núria felt a sense of inner peace.Ca: Va veure

Story Transcript:Ca: A Barcelona, mentre l'aire fred de l'hivern s'endinsava pels carrers i les llums de Nadal il·luminaven la ciutat, Martí caminava ràpidament cap al Hospital Clínic.En: In Barcelona, while the cold winter air seeped through the streets and the Christmas lights illuminated the city, Martí walked quickly towards Hospital Clínic.Ca: L'entrada de l'hospital estava adornada amb guirnaldes i un arbre de Nadal vestit de llums brillants.En: The entrance of the hospital was adorned with wreaths and a Christmas tree dressed in bright lights.Ca: Martí, amb les mans enfundades dins de la seva jaqueta, va saludar el porter amb un somriure abans d'agafar l'ascensor cap a la planta de cardiologia.En: Martí, with his hands tucked inside his jacket, greeted the doorman with a smile before taking the elevator to the cardiology floor.Ca: Núria, la seva àvia, era una dona sàvia amb una calidesa que tranquil·litzava qualsevol ànima preocupada.En: Núria, his grandmother, was a wise woman with a warmth that reassured any worried soul.Ca: Era el seu port segur, el seu conseller de confiança.En: She was his safe haven, his trusted counselor.Ca: Ara, esperava pacientment en una butaca del passadís, fent mots encreuats i sospitant per l'imminent visita de Martí.En: Now, she patiently waited in an armchair in the hallway, doing crosswords and suspecting Martí's imminent visit.Ca: Quan ell va arribar, li va oferir una abraçada càlida, transmetent seguretat i afecte.En: When he arrived, she offered him a warm hug, conveying security and affection.Ca: —Bon Nadal, Martí!En: "Merry Christmas, Martí!"Ca: —va dir Núria amb els ulls brillants.En: said Núria with bright eyes.Ca: —Bon Nadal, àvia.En: "Merry Christmas, grandma.Ca: Com et trobes avui?En: How are you feeling today?"Ca: —va preguntar Martí, encara preocupat per l'estat de salut de la seva àvia.En: Martí asked, still worried about his grandmother's health.Ca: —Oh, estic bé, estimat.En: "Oh, I'm fine, dear.Ca: Només una revisió de rutina.En: Just a routine check-up.Ca: Però tu, tens aquella expressió de dubte als ulls.En: But you, you have that doubtful expression in your eyes.Ca: Què et preocupa?En: What's bothering you?"Ca: —va preguntar Núria mentre es acomodava millor a la cadira.En: asked Núria as she settled more comfortably into the chair.Ca: Martí va sospirar profundament.En: Martí sighed deeply.Ca: Al seu cap, les imatges del que podria ser una carrera a París brillaven tant com les llums nadalenques als carrers.En: In his mind, images of what could be a career in Paris shone as brightly as the Christmas lights in the streets.Ca: Però l'ombra del fracàs també s'hi afegia.En: But the shadow of failure was also present.Ca: —M'han ofert una exposició a París, Núria.En: "They've offered me an exhibition in Paris, Núria.Ca: Però.En: But...Ca: tinc por de no estar preparat.En: I'm afraid I'm not ready.Ca: De fracassar —va confessar Martí, buscant els ulls comprensius de la seva àvia.En: Of failing," Martí confessed, seeking his grandmother's understanding eyes.Ca: Núria va somriure i va agafar les mans del seu nét.En: Núria smiled and took her grandson's hands.Ca: —Quan era jove, vaig tenir l'oportunitat de viatjar sola a Itàlia.En: "When I was young, I had the opportunity to travel alone to Italy.Ca: Ningú creia que ho pogués fer.En: Nobody believed I could do it.Ca: Però ho vaig fer igualment.En: But I did it anyway.Ca: Vaig veure el món i, el més important, vaig veure el que jo podia ser.En: I saw the world, and most importantly, I saw what I could be.Ca: Martí, la por sempre hi serà, però l'únic fracàs és no provar-ho.En: Martí, fear will always be there, but the only failure is not trying."Ca: Les paraules de Núria tenien un pes que marxava amb aquella sabiduria que només els anys i les aventures poden portar.En: Núria's words carried a weight that came with that wisdom only years and adventures can bring.Ca: Martí es va sentir inspirat, les seves inseguretats reduint-se al res.En: Martí felt inspired, his insecurities shrinking to nothing.Ca: El somriure de la seva àvia, mentre ella començava un altre conjunt de mots encreuats, li semblava ara la resposta a les seves pors.En: His grandmother's smile, as she began another set of crosswords, now seemed to him the answer to his fears.Ca: —Gràcies, àvia.En: "Thank you, grandma.Ca: Ho faré.En: I will do it.Ca: Aniré a París!En: I'll go to Paris!"Ca: —va dir Martí amb una ferma decisió.En: Martí said with firm determination.Ca: Amb una renovada confiança, Martí es va acomiadar de Núria després de la visita.En: With renewed confidence, Martí bid farewell to Núria after the visit.Ca: L'aire fred de Barcelona, que abans el feia encorbar-se, ara l'empenyia amb força vers la recepció dels seus somnis.En: The cold air of Barcelona, which previously made him hunch over, now propelled him forcefully towards the realization of his dreams.Ca: Justament, les llums de Nadal feien veure el futur més brillant que mai.En: Indeed, the Christmas lights made the future seem brighter than ever.Ca: Aquest hivern, Martí no només portava el pes del fred a les espatlles, sinó també l'escalf d'una àvia que l'havia ajudat a descobrir el coratge que sempre havia tingut dins seu.En: This winter, Martí not only carried the weight of the cold on his shoulders but also the warmth of a grandmother who had helped him discover the courage he always had within.Ca: I a París, una aventura plena de possibilitats l'esperava.En: And in Paris, an adventure full of possibilities awaited him.

Patrick and Neel open with Barcelona's win over Atletico Madrid and dig into why Atleti started well, why they collapsed after scoring, and how Raphinha and Pedri change Barça's ceiling. They also break down what Simeone's team is missing and whether they can stay competitive with Spain's top two. Then it's onto the Premier League, starting with Sunderland's brave performance at Anfield and why their approach is working in a season full of chaos. Leeds' shift in structure, Daniel Farke's reputation, and their big win over Chelsea come next, followed by a deeper look at Manchester City's issues out of possession and why their current squad build leaves them stuck between pressing and blocking deep. The episode closes in Scotland with Celtic's appointment of Wilfried Nancy. Patrick and Neel walk through his coaching journey, his style of play, and what it might take to implement his system quickly in a tight title race.
