Cracks in the Armada ...


On Friday it was announced that Barcelona will be the venue when Spain take on the Czech Republic in December in the final of the Davis Cup. There was some intial confusion as to whether it would be clay outdoors, or indoors clay ... with the answer being the latter.

However, it seems that daggers have been drawn over territories, with Juan-Carlos Ferrero championing his home town of Valencia, Nando and Feli were championing their home town of Madrid ... and Rafa kept stumm (although he does have his links with Barcelona, is a Catalan speaker and is very outspoken about the altitude in Madrid).

Anyhow ... Barcelona it is with Rafa having the following views on the subject ...

"I don't say no for Barcelona nor yes for Valencia; neither I say no for Valencia nor yes for Barcelona," said Nadal. "If everyone goes on saying his opinion, we will not be a team,' he argued. "Players should dedicate to play, not to making choices.'"

"This is not good for the team. It looks to me that Fernando and Feliciano made their private war for Madrid. It looks that the rest of us don't like Madrid."
