Thierry Henry's First MLS Practice

Today begins the reign of Henry with the New York Red Bulls. Above is some footage of Henry walking to the training ground accompanied by the only other player at RBNY with some pedigree, Angel. Again we watch the young MLS'rs joking about the circus just like they did in Los Angeles with Beckham.

All change in Real's dressing room:

As Pies told you last week, Cristiano Ronaldo will take over Raul's No.7 shirt at Real Madrid so CR9 reverts to CR7, as he was at Old Trafford. That's not all...

Striker Karim Benzema will take Ronaldo's old No.

There are six new signings, five of whom are 23 or younger. They include teenager Sergio Canales, possibly the most exciting young forward in Spain since the days of Fernando Torres; Pedro Leon, one of the most underrated wingers in La Liga last year; Angel Di Maria, a versatile attacking midfielder who at 22 is a mainstay for Argentina; and Sami Khedira and Mesut Ozil, two of the brightest stars from the young Germany side that turned so many heads at the World Cup.

Marquez put together this 30 yard screamer that tore a hole in the ozone. Great strike. The Mexican talisman opens his scoring ahead of far more vaunted Thierry Henry who has functioned more as an assist man.

NY went onto decimate Toronto, 4-1 through Marquez, Angel, Robinson, and an own goals by Nane.

David Beckham and the boys made a trip down to Anaheim to see LA's other baseball team the Los Angeles Angel's of Anaheim. Weir name right? It's a long story. David looks about excited as most of us to go to one of the most boring events on the planet. A baseball game isn't the most exciting thing in the world but try one at the end of August where the home team has no chance of making the playoffs.

The New York Red Bulls take on defending MLS Cup champion Real Salt Lake today at Red Bull Arena (4pm, Telefutura/MSG) in a match-up that just might wind up being an MLS Cup Final preview.

The Red Bulls are in first place in the Eastern Conference and can open up a four-point lead on Columbus with a win today.

According to Ole it is a done deal. Angel Di Maria will be a Rela Madrid player next season.

Benfica is reportedly selling Di Maria to Madird for 45 million dollars.

Lazio's Aleksandar Kolarov is thought to be on Mou's wish list

Jose Mourinho is already making noises about revamping Real Madrid's defense and midfield. Two areas that could do with improvement if they want to challenge Barca.

Maicon is set to follow his boss to the Bernabeu. His presence would mean that Sergio Ramos would be shifted to central defense.

Jose Mourinho must have comfortably settled in at Real Madrid because the new age targets of Los Galacticos mostly appear to be defensive minded players with the exception of Angel Di Maria who just signed earlier today. And of course offensive talent is well stocked for Los Blancos and defense is where they needed to make most of their improvements.

Real Madrid ended their low-scoring start of the 2010/11 season with a 6-1 thumping of Deportivo de La Coruna at the Santiago Bernabeu on Sunday. Cristiano Ronaldo scored a brace while Mesut Ozil, Angel Di Maria, Gonzalo Higuain and an own goal from Ze Castro completed Real Madrid's tally. Depor managed a consolation goal in the 78th [.

Note: The players that I have selected are not necessarily the 23 that I would take to the World Cup, rather it is an attempt by me to predict who Maradona is likely to pick.

How do you begin to predict the Argentina squad for the 2010 World Cup? Who knows what goes on inside Maradona's head?

Amazing! This is where Iniesta, Puyolita, Pique the Pout, tio Del Bosque, Ramos the Raver, David Villa, Xavi etc will bunk at during the World Cup in South Africa. Looking at the beauty of it, you'd half expect an angel to float out with a tray of donuts. Visitors can also expect Bobojan to sleepwalk in the middle of the night (oh, please call him up Del Bosque!

If Manchester United want winger Angel di Maria then it rumours have it that it will be United midfielder Anderson who may have to pay the price. The Argentine International has a price tag...

Reports suggest that Manchester United are willing to offer £20m for the Dutchman. Van Der Vaart was out of favor after just 6 months of signing for Madrid. It was reported that he was on the verge of leaving Madrid last summer for just a fee of around 8m.

With a series of strong performances towards the end of the season it is believed that his market value has shot up.

Juventus's post season form appears to be even worse than the efforts the Turin side put in during their disastrous Serie A campaign. The Italian side, under new boss Luigi Delneri, suffered an embarrassing defeat at the hands of MLS side New York Red Bulls.

There are questions about Argentina heading into the World Cup opener:

Will a three man backline with Jonas moving in and out of the right-back position work against a team like Nigeria that can launch fast, counterattacks?

UPDATE: According to Real Madrid's official website, Real Madrid have completed the signing of Angel Di Maria.

June 17th, 2010: According to ESPN Soccernet, As & Marca are both reporting that Real Madrid have a deal in place of around €25-30 million to sign Benfica winger Angel Di Maria.

With Jose Mourinho looking to strengthen his squad ahead of the next season, he went on to pick up Angel Di Maria from Portuguese side Benfica, who is currently with Argentina in the World Cup.

Real Madrid has just picked up one of the most dangerous young players at the current World Cup.

Real Madrid have confirmed the signing of Benfica winger Angel Di Maria on a six-year deal, as new manager Jose Mourinho builds his squad for the new season.

No Surprises here folks but it's official, Rafa Marquez has signed with the New York Red Bulls of Major League soccer just days after he officially parted ways with Barcelona. The 31 year old has spent the pat seven years of his playing career with Spanish giants FC Barcelona was released on Saturday and has joined the club on a free transfer.

Highly sought after Brazilian defender David Luiz now has a price tag of €40 million for any club looking to take him off of Benfica's hands.

Luiz has been linked with both Manchester City and Chelsea moves. However, Benfica is not about to let go of their 23 year-old defender so easily, especially after the loss of Angel Di Maria to Real Madrid this summer.

From Reuters comes news that Real Madrid have completed their new signings for the season, having spent $100 million while adding Khedira, Canales, Pedro Leon, Angel Di Maria and Ricardo Carvalho in addition to the German international who starred at the World Cup.

MADRID (Reuters) Real Madrid have completed their pre-season spending by signing Mesut Ozil and have new coach Jose Mourinho's powers of persuasion to thank for luring the Germany midfielder to the La Liga club.

Jose Mourinho has won more consecutive trophies then just about any coach in any league in any sport for that matter.

The Special One moved to Real Madrid this summer and the spend-happy team from a summer ago was expected to continue to blow away the competition by bringing in even more stars.

Esta entrada la verdad que no deseaba escribirla nunca pero es que que ayer precisamente leia una columna de este dramaturgo y popular escritor mexicano German Dehesa, eso me hizo pensar que hay quienes deben de escribir mas seguido, como columnistas de cualquier periodico(incluyendo a los bloggers) ya que la creatividad y talento llegan después de muchas horas de trabajo y aun así se quedan muchas palabras en el tintero.

Angel Di Maria scored the only goal of the game against Auxerre with just 9 minutes left on the clock.Auxerre are a team that are nowhere near the top 5 teams in the French League and this should have been an easy win for Real.
The referee missed what definitely looked like a Sergio Ramos handball just before he passed the ball to Di Maria.

Real Madrid have been called a lot of things by a lot of people over the years, but goal-shy is certainly not one of them. During the 'galatico' era they played by the simple rule of 'score more than the opponents', whilst even when they have not won titles, they have always found the net.

This season though things appear to be very different indeed.

The New York Red Bulls will look to move a step closer to the Eastern Conference final tonight with a win or tie against the San Jose Earthquakes in the second leg of their MLS playoff series at Red Bull Arena (8pm, ESPN2).

The Earthquakes need a win tonight after dropping the first leg, 1-0, at Buck Shaw Stadium.
