  • Best Centre Backs in the World

    The best centre backs in the world become more and more attacking as time goes by. Most of them, like David Luiz, Javi Martinez and Mats Hummels, are just as adept as playing as defensive midfielders.

  • Jose Mourinho vs Real Madrid – Not Bigger Than the Club

    Jose Mourinho vs Real Madrid – Not Bigger Than the Club

    No one should be bigger than their own working place. Jose Mourinho has one of best footballing minds in the world, but also one of the biggest egos. The combination of the two has led him to great success, but to quite a rocky time at Real Madrid, reaching some sort of peak, or low, depends how you look at it, with the benching of Iker Casillas.

    Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo & Perfect Defending

    The league table doesn’t mean a thing when it comes to the Madrid derby.

    Injury worries regarding the defense? Not a problem against an under-qualified Celta Vigo team that didn’t have what it takes to even remotely be close to an upset, while Cristiano Ronaldo was as unstoppable as ever, only the balls didn’t go in, which was still enough for a 2-0 win.

    Olivier Giroud a Hero for Once (Spain vs France)

    There’s no doubt who is the better side; Spain are a much better football team than France. But being wasteful for an entire match, despite the huge quality (and quite shocking) quality advantage, allows Olivier Giroud to score an equalizer out of nowhere, stealing a point in Madrid.

  • Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo Makes Jose Mourinho Look Good

    Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo Makes Jose Mourinho Look Good

    A new design in his hair to flaunt in front of the cameras, but also some rare bravery and playing through pain, scoring through it. Cristiano Ronaldo was the big star, along with his big rival, of yet another clasico, being the one good thing about Real Madrid in the second half as Jose Mourinho tried to spin the result off as a good one.

  • Transfer Rumors 2012 – Manchester United Moving Chicharito to Real Madrid

    Manchester Untied have been following quite a few Real Madrid players over the last year, hoping that their situation with the Spanish champions allows them to swoop in and purchase them for a relatively bargain price. Now, the idea of using hardly-used Mexican striker Javier Hernandez in some sort of exchange deal is brewing at Old Trafford.

  • Real Madrid – Cristiano Ronaldo the Hat Trick King

    Just in time, Cristiano Ronaldo is hitting perfect goal scoring form. He and Real Madrid are out of their little funk, and after rather easily dealing with Ajax in the Champions League, they can move on to the more important stuff – stopping Barcelona in the league, paying a visit to the Nou Camp for the first league Clasico of the season.

  • Transfer Rumors 2012 – Sergio Ramos Leaving Real Madrid to Chelsea

Now, the transfer speculations are out, with Chelsea as the first name on the list of potential interested teams.
