Real Madrid: Not at this Time. Barcelona joined in the Bid.

Posted on June 5, 2008 by admin

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderón has finally conceded in his attempt to entice Cristiano Ronaldo to Bernabeu. He will be getting 150,000 pounds a week salary.

Calderon doesnt want to strain the relationship between the two clubs. Since Manchester appears not interested in selling their most prized player. But he is still hopeful that Ronaldo will come to play for Real Madrid in the near future.

Barcelona appears to be joining in bidding for Cristiano Ronaldo. But i believe Ronaldo will choose Real Madrid.

Jose Mourinho, the new Inter Milan manager

Posted on June 2, 2008 by admin

Former Chelsea coach is now officially the new manager of Internazionale Milan. Mourinho will replace Roberto Mancini despite leading Inter to three consecutive titles in Serie A. Although Mancini failed to lift Inter to European glory as they were knocked out by Liverpool in the last 16 of 2008 UEFA Champions League.

I’m wondering, the owner of Inter Milan and Chelsea’s Abramovich, could be the same person. They both have similar attitudes. Both are expecting too much. They’re both looking for God to manage their team.

Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid

Posted on June 2, 2008 by admin

Okay, hold on to your horses Manchester United fanboys and girls. It’s still a rumor. But according to reports the move will likely happen this month. But the Ronaldo’s final decision will be out in three days (June 2 or 3).

According to sources, Ronaldo has nothing to prove anymore for Man U, he already won a English Premier championship with them twice, and a Champions League title.

It would be great seeing Ronaldo in Real Madrid jersey. Real Madrid is my second favorite football team, after Liverpool.

I will no longer call you a “diver” if you transfer to Real Madrid. That’s a promise!

Filthy Rich Abramovich Looking for God to Manage Chelsea

Posted on May 24, 2008 by admin

Abram Grant is officially out of Chelsea Football Club.

I believe Grant is doing a good job at Chelsea. He managed to place Chelsea in the second place both in English Premier League standings and European Champions League. His managerial skills is scarce to find for a newly appointed coach or manager. Normally it takes a year or two for the players and coach to gel each other.

Chelsea owner Abramovich is expecting too much. He is looking for God to manage his team.

Liverpool’s Rafa Benitez hired Sammy Lee as Assistant Manager

Posted on May 16, 2008 by admin

Sammy Lee

Mr. Benitez were you in your right mind when you hired Sammy Lee?

He was sacked by Bolton Wanderers because he underachieved. Well, okay that’s not a conclusion. I will give him the benefit of the doubt. Probably his players were the underachievers.

Let’s see what he can do in the years to come.

Congratulations to Ferguson for leading Manchester United for another English Premier League title.

Although, next year would be different. At least three teams are vying for the title. And in the next 4 to 8 years would be Liverpool’s dynasty after they finish their new stadium.
