Mata: Frantic April Is A Challenge

Each and every Monday during the season, Manchester United star Juan Mata pens a personal blog detailing his latest experiences on and off the pitch. In his latest post, on Monday 27 March, he reveals what he's been up to during the latest international break and looks ahead to the Reds' April schedule...

Hi everyone,

West Bromwich Albion, Everton, Sunderland, Anderlecht, Chelsea, Burnley, Manchester City and Swansea. It’s not a random list of teams, it’s the list of the eight teams we’re going to face in a frantic month of April. Since we have to play twice against Anderlecht (first and second leg), it makes a total of nine games for us the next month!

It’s not a complaint, it’s just a reality and we have to adapt ourselves to it, in order to give the best we have in the decisive spell of the season. I see these games as a challenge to show all the good things we’ve been working on throughout the season, and I hope that we can get good results too.

I spent the Saturday in Asturias with my family and I also attended Real Oviedo’s game at the Carlos Tartiere. It was a nice evening in the stadium and not only because the local team won, but also because I met many friends and acquaintances that I hadn’t seen in a while. People were very nice with me at home and that’s something that always helps to recharge your batteries…

Have a nice week. Hugs,

Juan
