Man City's Kun Aguero (seen here with his son, Benjie, at the
2010 Super Cup Final between Inter and Atletico) has rubbished reports that his alleged "stupid leg
injury" is one that is, well, stupid. All of you Sherlock Holmes-types better hide your
microscopes because Kun doesn't like the idea of snooping around.
É una Juve da record ma stanca, il muro del Cagliari non crolla Di Alessandro Paparella Le
avvisaglie mamifestatesi gi una settimana f al "Via Del Mare" circa una Juve in evidente
regresso dal punto di vista atletico rispetto alle partite precedenti la sosta natalizia, hanno
purtroppo trovato una conferma nel pareggio interno contro il Cagliari.
La Liga standing as of Feb 13, 2012 (From the Guardian)
Cast your eye at the number of goals scored by each club in the fourth column from the right. At
this point is there any wonder why this is not even a two horse race anymore? The race for La Liga
is effectively over as even Pep Guardiola has all but conceded defeat, for the rest it ended in
September last year.
After coming off at halftime in Chelsea's 1-1 draw against Brimingham on Saturday it is looking
very likely that Drogba will get the nod ahead of Torres for tonight's match.
Torres though fit, is still not scoring goals and his current drought is raising concerns that
he could be on his way out of London, this is despite the many reports that claim otherwise.
Barcelona's midfielder, Seydou Keita, showed his true professionalism as he simply opted to
focus on helping his current team instead of thinking about the future especially commenting about
recent rumors revealing the midfielder's departure plan.
Keita simply avoided all talks about whether he will leave Barca or not next summer, stating to
the press that his mind is simply focused on the Catalan's upcoming game against Atletico.
Caleb Patterson-Sewell conceded twice but saved a point for Atletico in the dying moments against
Naval.
Could there be a bit of truth to those Courtois to Real Madrid rumors? Probably not. But just in
case, Chelsea have added another young goalkeeping talent to the ranks. More, after the jump:
'You know what you're doing, right Ron?'
'Totally bro'
His name is Luca Savelloni, he's 16 years old, and that's about that.
Japan's U-17 female footballers and Brazil's Clube Atletico Juventus futbolitas played a
friendly match in Sao Paulo earlier this month to raise funds. The players from Japan's Tsunami
stricken area came to Brazil supported by Ashinaga, a non-profit organization that currently takes
care of more than 2,000 orphans following the earthquake and tsunami disaster.
Well well, if it isn't Barcelona's new "Club of Ten", comprising of
the most-capped players in the club's 112-year history. Indeed, Puyol, Xavi,
Victor Valdes and Iniesta have officially joined the ranks of Barca's legends, with Xavi as the
most capped player (619 games).

Critics have complained that Cristiano Ronaldo doesn't perform in the big games. That when his
team really needs him, that he shrinks from the pressure.
Well tonight's Real Madrid's season was about to collapse and Ronaldo took the team on his back
and led them to a huge in the Madrid derby against Atletico.

We review the German Clasico: Dortmund vs. Bayern in a 1st versus 2nd encounter, and the Madrid

from one Mr. Cristiano Ronaldo.
Fans of Espanyol in Catalonia are on a high after their side's 4-0
thumping of Valencia yesterday. The Valencianos are waging their own "third spot"
battle against Malaga, so this loss has nothing to do with the title race at
all.
Venue: D.W. Stadium, Wigan. Date: Sunday, 28th April, 2012. Kick-Off: 3.00pm. Referee: Mike Dean
(The Wirral Whistler). Hmm, well despite the large difference in the Magpies' and the Latics'
respective league positions, this could well be an interesing game. Roberto Martinez and Atletico
Wigan's progress has followed a fairly similar pattern to that of last [.
Real Madrid won at home, Barcelona thrashed Rayo Vallecano, and much more in the Spanish Primera

UEFA Europa League FinalAthletic Bilbao vs Atletico Madrid20:45 GMT
These are exciting times for Atletico Madrid, who are on course to play in their
second Europa League final in two years tonight!
For the second week in a row, the streets in Madrid will be transformed into a colourful
sizzling 'fiesta', after Atletico's Europa League victory last night
and Real's La Liga title celebrations last week. If you're looking for
the party capital this summer, you know where it is!
After the Torres story broke soon after Chelsea won the Champions League, it's been good to hear an
update from Nando as it was clear he needed to speak with the club. I wrote a post straight after
the story broke and made it clear that
he has never said he wanted to leave and what's wrong
with wanting to confirm the clubs plans for him and the future!
