The Arsenal striker Robin van Persie has today hinted at a summer move to Real Madrid after
admitting that he would be excited about the prospect of playing for the La Liga side. Speaking to
the Spanish daily Marca, the Dutch striker had this to say: "I like knowing the interest of Real
Madrid and [.
Welcome to the Friday Crackovia Club, where it's always a party in
here before the weekend! Of course, Crackovia is one of the most craziest football
sketch shows from Catalonia and this week was all about Barcelona's quest
to slow down Madrid using some insane dressing room rituals.
AVB hasn't exactly had it easy since he has come to Chelsea has he?. He came into the club as a
breath of fresh air speaking of motivation, fine tuning the team and with his technical staff
getting the best out of everyone.
Chelsea sit fourth just ahead of the likes of Newcastle, Liverpool and Arsenal and a whopping 12
points behind United and Man City and more importantly seven points and four goals behind Spurs.

After seeing the latest pics of Xabi Alonso and wifey Nagore shopping at D&G in Madrid, we got
to thinking: have we ever seen Ane Alonso?
Okay, we have. Once. But have we ever seen Ane Alonso as a toddler?
We thought not, which is why we're donating a hi-res version of her to your desktop files and
Tumblr accounts now, Kickettes.

Esta semana, por no decir el año completo el villano de la película de fútbol ha sido el
portugués Pepe. Esa mala fama ha sido ganada a pulso, es mas muchos madridistas no lo quiere en su
equipo, para no ir mas lejos los ejemplos del clásico pasado en el Santiago Bernabeu, mostraron un
poco de sus acciones antifutbolisticas, marrullerías,reclamos,clavados,malas actuaciones y
pisotón a Messi incluido.
Nadal won again against Federer in the Australian Open semi-final this morning. The comparison
between the psychological advantage Nadal has over Federer with how the Blaugrana consistently
defeat the Merengue is an intriguing one.
In his past clubs Mourinho always had the solution to win the psychological game.
My name is 'Arry; I'm a cockney, but I'm still 'Not Guilty' The Greg Meyer Column. Greg's at home
this week with legal matters, laying the Law down and highlighting 'Special Ones' from legal eagles

Classico' as were were on Sunday.

"efecto Simeone" y cierta revitalización
del goleador Radamel Falcao, Atlético Madrid publicita su spot para la campaña de abonados de la
segunda vuelta de la Liga española.

In this week's review of the footballing action we focus on the start of the African Cup of
Nations and we wonder why stamps in Manchester and Madrid go unpunished.
I don't think they come lower than Pepe. Even animals have a sense of fair play. This man if you
can call him that should be banned from the sport for life. Leo Messi goes down after colliding
with Callejon and while he's down, Pepe strolls casually over and deliberately plants his studs on
Messi's hand.

Freddy Adu spoke to Arch Bell of ESPN.com and, in a column published Monday, expressed an
interest in returning to Europe immediately.
The money quote from Adu is here: "It would be an amazing opportunity to be able to stay here at
Rayo [Vallecano]."
"I definitely miss playing in Europe," Adu continued, "I always said that when I went back to
MLS, I wanted stability, and that I wouldn't go back until I could play for a top-five league.
Liverpool target Esteban Granero is available for transfer this month and can be bought for around
£8million according to talkSPORT.

Los Blancos boss Jose Mourinho, but is unwilling to let the former Getafe man leave the club on
loan.

In a couple of days, the winter transfer window will open amid a flurry of activity. With most
clubs seeking to strengthen their squads for the remaining half of the season, a few will be
looking to offload their most prized players.
It is no secret that Tevez is on his way out of Manchester City, however another very shocking
report is that of Brazilian midfielder Kaka.
This entire video screams 'delirium' at best, but there's nothing better than a
footballer who can bake in an apron. Even if it's Pepe, who has
been rudely left out of the Real Madrid Fangirl- Friendly Gang! You know what
we're talking about, chicas!
SPANISH FOOTBALL continued today/tonight with the final 5 games schedule of Round 17, before the
LIGA takes its Xmas break. However, as a reminder, there will be Spanish Cup 2º leg action
mid-week so do keep that in mind. Below are brief summaries of the games played, with final results
& scorers. At.
The shameless lies about Liverpool FC just keep on coming! Earlier today, I highlighted two fake
transfer rumours posted by GiveMeFootball.com, and only a few hours later, the site that quotes

So, Guti (along with his lovely lady WAG Romina Belluschio) attended the premiere of the latest
Mission Impossible film in Madrid last night with an alarming smattering of facial growth affixed
to his chinny chin chin...
Ahem. I'll just leave this here.
The title of the Spanish Sports paper says it all : "Barcelona puts Guaje on the market" VILLA FOR
SALE. A SPANISH FOOTBALL Bombshell? Madrid media propaganda? Destabilizing tactics from Madrid?
Interested party testing the waters? The players sending an S.O.S messaje? Bullshit? Truth? One
cannot also doubt that the newspaper looks to sell & get some "free marketing" ( as here ), but.
An article by guest author Daniel Menken My three sons (ages 10, 10, and 9) love soccer and have
played on Woodbury traveling teams for several years. The boys attend a Spanish immersion
elementary school and when the opportunity arose for a full-year exchange to Madrid they jumped at
it and couldn't wait to join [.
It is being reported today that the Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho is preparing to try and tempt
Arsenal's Robin Van Persie to move to La Liga rather than make a big money move to Arsenal's
Premiership rivals Manchester City. The Mirror says that Mourinho is close to breaking Barcelona's
stranglehold on the Spanish domestic [.

Two French offsides, two Amsterdam onsides... Sad....
Last Wednesday was a black day in Ajax' history. Two onside goals were disallowed, resulting in
a home loss against Madrid, which could have at least ended in a draw. And as losing wasn't even
that big of a problem, it was Zagreb that [read more]
SPANISH FOOTBALL tonight with two matches played of the SPANISH CUP ( 1º st leg ). Here are the
details, final results & the scorers. Salvio : At Madrid The brilliant Football tactician ( its a
joke ) ATLETICO DE MADRID Coach Manzano left out some big names & travelled to 2º B Divison team
ALBACETE to lose 2 - 1.
It really is make or break for Chelsea tonight and I cannot emphasise enough just how important the
right result is for our season. We have come up against adversity in recent weeks and took a
massive step in the right direction
at Newcastle on Saturday.
I have to stress that it's important that we do not get carried away as there is plenty still to
do.
A feverish exchange went round Kickette HQ this morning when we saw a photo of Sara Carbonero in
this skirt at a media fiesta in Madrid two nights ago It's the perfect holiday party season skirt,
is it not?
The exchange between staffers included thoughts on life's injustices, which was further
compounded by the sight of these two crazy kids making out in his car.
If you live in the Twin Cities and are a self respecting soccer loving fiend then I expect to see

Vicente Calderon di Madrid contro l'Atletico, vittorioso con il risultato di 3 a 2. Dopo 18 anni i

Red is an incredibly Spanish colour to wear, and Madrid chose to don
it against Valencia at the Mestalla last night (one of the steepest stadium steps
to climb, if you're wearing heels - stop rolling your eyes, hombres!) In Spain, you'd
better be wearing red.
Feliz Sabado! It's our weekend wrap-up again, and first on the menu is
Cristiano's enthusiasm for playing dress-up... típicas!
Earlier this week, your favourite Portuguese hunk (don't try to deny this, grandmas!)
launched his special CR7 collection, which features a series of his favourite
white sneakers, the Nike5 Street Gato ("cat" in Spanish),
specially-designed T-shirts in red, white and blue, a CR7 matchball and even shin-guards!
Everyone wants something out of Cristiano Ronaldo it's a matter of admitting
it! Of course, you'd beg to differ when it comes to the amount of hair gel and daily serum
to apply onto your face, but wouldn't you want to zoom past the hottest club in town with awesome
Romanian house music blasting from your Porsche, as you yell "Olala minha bonitaaaa!

Tom (thinking): Oh my... Where on earth am I? London, still? God I hope so.
WHAT. A. NIGHT. After the clock struck midnight though, bam! I can't remember a thing! Remember the
match perfectly though.
It's Neymar November here on Futbolita and we're giving you shirts to celebrate it! In the
meantime, the boy isn't going anywhere till 2014... Madrid whoooo?
