He’s back! Martin Palermo has returned to Boca Juniors and a celebration of dominance and goal scoring has put Boca back on the World Football Dominance Matrix. 

He is inspiring performances that recall his single handed defeat of European Champions Real Madrid many moons ago.  He has brought back the Midas touch, and everything he touches turns to goals.

Boca has welcomed him back from his European exile and drought, and they are looking to make it three Argentine League Championships in a row.  Martin has just fired in a hat-trick in the 7-1 demolition of San Lorenzo last week’s Week 4 fixture.  Boca sits on the top of the table undefeated with the maximum twelve points and many goals in their cookie-bag.

Next up is Estudiantes, who have also started out well, with their return of another Argentine great, Juan Sebastian Veron, and are tied for second just behind Independiente.

Martin will be looked for once again to provide the finishing touches. Something I am sure he still dreams to do for the National Team.  Perhaps his former coach, Basile, who is leaving Boca for the National Team will give him a call.
