Trafford. Manchester United plans to raid Spain as they are also linked with Villarreal's goal
keeper Diego Lopez. This comes straight after Valencia FC told David Villa - You can go your own
way. It is being said the United will pay £50m for Villa and his team-mate David Silva.

Valencia's David Villa has put Manchester United and Liverpool on red alert as he fired his
agent, Jose Luis Tamargo. Tamargo has reportedly been sacked for his inability to secure a summer
transfer away from Valencia, and Villa has a long list of suitors, including England's giants.
Real Madrid and Barcelona were strongly linked for a move for the 27 year old over the summer
following his sensational form for Spain, but with the two Spanish clubs since wrapping up deals
for other star strikers (Benzema for Real and Ibrahimovic for Barca), a move to England is on the
cards for Villa.

Blog United 29 October @ 06:54 AM EST
United have once again been linked with January moves for Valencia's star men, David Villa and
David Silva. The future of both Spanish Internationals was the focus of much media attention over
the summer with Barcelona, Real Madrid and Liverpool keeping tabs on the situation to name but a
few.
Valencia managed to hold on to their prized assets in the summer but as their financial troubles
show no sign of letting up, it looks increasingly likely they will lose one if not both in the
winter.

With the Ballon d'Or nominations finally releasing this weekend, the headlines have mostly been
devoted to the fact that world champions Italy have no representation whatsoever. But why blame the
press for paying excessive attention to an irrelevant detail? After all, the award itself is

terms of debating the winner, right?

Most of the heavy favourites have already qualified for the World Cup due next summer in South
Africa. Previous World Cup winners such as Brazil, Germany, England, Argentina and Italy (also
current WC Winners) all booked their spot in South Africa following a long and arduous road.
Some teams such as Argentina have struggled while others such as England have cruised, yet the
World Cup stage is a different playing field and previous results will not count.

La Liga Talk 28 September @ 12:04 PM EST
Based on their records coming into this fixture, the Valencia Atlético Madrid Saturday fixture
did not look to be an appetizing match, but knowing each team's penchant to go forward, their
stature in Spanish football, and their performances over the past few years, this game was the one
to watch, and they did not disappoint.

Other than perhaps law, nowhere does the concept of possession hold more weight than it does in
sport. In fact, the debate would be abooout near a cul-de-sac; athletics involving both a "ball"
and two "teams" basically have their double helices woven by this exercising of influence over said
"ball", a bond so heavy not a jack on earth could lift it.

Two weeks into this early season and the top dogs in Spain are looking the part. Barcelona has
started their defence of their crown with two solid performances; a much brighter start than last
year when they lost and tied their first two games. The Blaugrana's back line has impressed me and
their mega-signing Dmytro Chigrynskiy has added some much needed stability in front of Victor
Valdes.

Es mag nachtragend wirken, aber ich nehme den Belgiern immer noch den Sieg bei der WM 1986 im
Elfmeterschießen gegen Spanien übel. Für die Spanier war damit die WM vorbei und die leidvolle
Phase ohne Turniererfolg der Selección sollte noch satte 22 Jahre andauern.
Die Spanier haben seitdem alle 3 Begegnungen gegen Belgien bei der WM 1990 und in der
Qualifikation für die WM 2010 gewonnen.
