Samir Nasri scored the winner for Manchester City in their 3-2 win over
Southampton last night (which nearly didn't happen, given the Saints' impressive counterattacking)
and promptly revealed a shirt he specially made in celebration of the month-long Islamic
celebrations of Eid-ul-Fitr, which simply read : "Eid
Mubarak!
A hat trick from Barca star Lionel Messi took the Argentine's tally for the season to 68 goals
one more than Gerd Muller's all time record of 67 set in the 1972/1973 season while playing for
Bayern Munich.
Having failed o score in the Clasico against some two weeks ago and in their Champions League
defeat to Chelsea, Messi has scored 5 goals in his last two matches to re-write the history
books.
Somehow, Deep Down Inside, we all knew that it was going to end in divorce between the 2 of
them.
.When Florentino Perez became the President of Real Madrid for a second time, many probably felt
that here we were again, right back on the pattern of hiring and firing at least one coach per
season till the silverware came along.

As young children, we sincerely believed in a world of perfect communication between our
parents. When mom said no to ice cream, we scurried over to our father. His first question?
What did your mother say? Predictable, stable, coherent, only in the early stages of
adolescence would we see hiccups in the assembly line of authority.
The bench is not a place where Lassana Diarra feels he should be and made his feelings known to
the office members of Real Madrid by stating that he wants to the Bernabeu.
At just 25-years old, Diarra is definitely an impressive player but after the arrival of German
midfielder, Sami Khedira, Jose Moruinho has not picked Diarra as one of the starting XI.

It may have been just a friendly match against one of Spanish Football's ‘minnow teams'... the
newly-promoted: Hercules: but last sunday night's match brought to mind some interesting thoughts.
Here are some of them.
. The Absentees
Jose Mourinho left out the Starting XI of this past World Cup's Spanish team, namely: Casillas,
Xabi Alonso & Sergio Ramos.
Real Madrid, Valdano: "É un onore che Mou voglia il Real Madrid" Di Andrea CosentinoIl Direttore
Generale del Real Madrid, Jorge Valdano, ha parlato ai microfoni di Mediaset Premium di Mourinho e
della sua voglia di allenare le Merengues: "È un onore che Mourinho abbia dichiarato che un giorno
allenerà il Real Madrid, d'altronde il punto di arrivo di tutti i grandi giocatori e allenatori è
With Real Madrid unceremoniously dumped out of the Champions
League in the first knock-out stage, you can't help but feel Florentino Perez will cast a
wistful eye over to Germany and Italy as he ponders his decision last summer to cast Wesley
Sneijder and Arjen Robben out of the club.
As the title says, we promise not to disappoint anyone today. It's pretty obvious that the
Madridistas are writhing all over the floor from the name
"Messiah" being chanted, whispered or screamed incessantly into their ears. You
must remember, however, that Messiah is from planet Mercury (Pele was from
Pluto, Maradona from Mars, Valdano from Venus and so on.
Some weeks back, Murali Krishnan, also known in the blogosphere as 'Just Another Madridista',
flattered me by asking to interview me for an interview series in his blog, Hala Madrid!! with an
impressive roster of Real Madrid Bloggers which included Siddarth from Los Merengues.com as well as
Corey and Bassam from Real - The Offside.
A Relieving Sight: Ronaldo Celebrated his goal WITH Pipita.
Last night, Real Madrid stepped onto the pitch for the first time after Lyonazo - or
rather... our catastrophic capitulation at the hands of Olympique Lyonnais. The fact that we were
about to face one of the poorest sides in La Liga made no difference: we were a club and a team
whose morale had been totally dismembered by our elimination from the Champions League.
This weekend has seen Juan Pablo Carrizo damage his cause in the battle for the national #1 shirt;
Internazionale drew with Germán Denis' Napoli, and Gabriel Heinze was involved in a war of words
with Real Madrid's sporting director Jorge Valdano. Roberto Abbondanzieri looks set to move from
Boca Juniors to Internacional de Porto Alegre.
There's a spanner in the works; someone is not playing ‘the game'. The man in question seems
quiet, reserved and astute, yet has a unique ability to get under peoples' skin. The man I'm
talking about is, of course, Rafael Benitez, manager of Liverpool FC.
What fascinates me is why this quiet man from Madrid seems to provoke such a strong reaction from
people.
Gabriel Milito hoy ya hace mas de un año y medio que no puede jugar de manera oficial por su
persistente dolor en la rodilla, y a pesar de haber intentado volver en mas de una vez, no ha
podido.
La fame di campioni del Real Madrid non si è ancora placata. L'ultima tentazione si trova nella
capitale, ha la maglia giallorossa e di mestiere fa il centrocampista. Si chiama Daniele De Rossi,
26enne calciatore della Roma e della Nazionale, l'ultimo oggetto del desiderio del club spagnolo.
Dopo i vari acquisti effettuati, Kakà , C.
The Club that loves to buy attacking players so much, is short on strikers.
Hilarious..I slept with my Real Madrid Jersey on New Year's Eve as part of my wish for
titles this 2011. Today, typing this over my lunch break in my first days back to work from my
Holidays in Manila.
A Nightnare to Remember.It was all going according to plan. The Bernabeu looked
fantastic and was abuzz with optimism. It seemed from the livestream that I was viewing the match
from that the 'prawn sandwich brigade' didn't turn up... Or at least had tried their best 'true
madridista' impersonation.

"Mi hermano Gerard será mejor que yo". La predicción es de Sergi López, quizá el juguete roto
de la MasÃa por excelencia. Sergi era la gran promesa del Barça de los ochenta, Puyol antes de
Puyol. En Can Barça desde los trece años, su carrera crecÃa en aquel equipo pre Dream Team hasta
que todo saltó por los aires un dÃa de lluvia, cuando fue a entrenarse a un pabellón de
baloncesto y se destrozó la rodilla.
After Carlo was sacked all sorts of names have been mentioned being linked with the club. However,
after Jose Mourinho won his battle with Valdano in Madrid, a reported approach for Pellegrini was
rejected and Porto stating that their manager will not leave the club it seems that we are now down
to just two people, Guus Hiddink and Harry Redknapp.
03.07.2010 - CalÃgula - Argentina tiene una ventaja de un partido en el historial ante
Alemania, ya que registra 7 victorias, 6 derrotas y 4 empates, en 17 encuentros disputados. Pero en
Mundiales se enfrentaron 5 veces, con tres victorias para Alemania, una para Argentina y un
empate.
