MESSI FINED 2,000 EUROS.

Lionel Messi the footballer of the year has been fined by the Spanish Football Federation, a sum of 2,000 Euros, or it could even be 3,000 Euros.

The reason for the fine was that Lionel Messi wore jersey under the Barcelona jersey.And it had the words Happy Birthday Mum, it was in Spanish.Even though it seems harmless but the law in Spain forbids any slogan or for the matter anything to be written below the Jersey.

LIVERPOOL WANT ANELKA IN THE TORRES DEAL.

Liverpool were jolted when Fernando Torres gave a written letter for a transfer to Chelsea. The reason for the move was simple, lack of trophies. Chelsea first offered 4o million pounds, but it was rejected, they then made it 43 million pounds plus the young player Daniel Sturridge free. But it looks rejected, Liverpool want to get Nickolas Anelka as part of the deal.

The latest is that it could be a 50 million deal with Anelka going to Liverpool.

FABIO CAPELLO ADMITS LEAVING WALCOTT OUT WAS A MISTAKE.

Fabio Capello the coach of England has long last admitted that leaving out Theo Walcott for the 2010 world cup was a very big miss.He also missed out on striker Darren Bent as well, as we all know that Darren bent is a proven goal scorer, these two would have made a big difference.

And there was no need to take injury prone players like Rio Ferdinand and Ledley King , as they served no purpose at all.

EL NINOS SALE IS REJECTED.

Liverpool have rejected flatly 35 million pound sale for the El Nino, Fernando Torres. Chelsea have rejected flatly the 35 million pounds, but the Chelsea Russian billionaire has now raised it to 40 million pounds , and Roman Abrahomovic is very capable of reaching 50 million pounds.

Liverpool must think long and hard about it. As they want the Uruguayan striker Luiz Suarez from Ajax. And anyway Liverpool will not play in the champion league next year.

Liverpool must not make a mistake of holding onto Torres, he should be sold for 50 million pounds, and they make a profit as well.

Liverpool must remember even though Torres scores goals,he is also very fragile and is injury prone player, let me ask how many games has he missed.?

I can be sure if Arsene wenger was at Liverpool he would have sold him for 50 million pounds and got a new cheaper player.

And there is a buy out clause in Torres contract , I think it is 50 million pounds.

EDWIN VAN DER SAR TO HANG HIS GLOVES.

Barcelona are a club that do not hesitate to sell a player, as long as they get their money.

They did it with Ronaldo, Rivaldo, and luis Figo.

CHELSEA ARE NOW BEATABLE.

Frank lampard the heart of Chelsea for many years , has now admitted that Chelsea are no longer the invincible they were once since 2004, last year they won both the F.A and the E.P.l. But this year things are different . They even lost to smaller teams with less money.This was unthinkable at the start of the season. Floren Malouda boasted that all the clubs of the e.p.L are scared of Chelsea and our running from us in all directions.

It all started with the shameful sacking of Ray Wilkins, and Didier Drogba bout with malaria. They have never been the old team, with Lampard out with a operation did not help either.

Now they are fighting on the pitch , I am sure the dressing room is not united as before.

SHEIKH MANSOOR HAS NOW SPENT ONE BILLION POUNDS.

Sheikh Mansoor has now spent one billion pounds on the club of his Manchester City, it is for buying players their wages , buying the club and training ground, he also developed the stadium.
This is money wasted, as all clubs do not spend money like this madly, as most of the players are not even on the bench, leave alone playing.But he will have to pay their weekly wages. And all have been brought for over 10 million pounds, so their wages will be high as well.And as they are not playing they are getting frustrated with Roberto Mancini and are fighting.
But at the same time Arsenal who sold City their two players Emmanuel Adebayor for 25 million pounds and Kolo Toure for15 million pounds, that is a 40 million pounds in all, has not been touched by Arsene Wenger as yet.Arsenal is the only top club to make a profit this year.

WHO IS BETTER MESSI OR RONALDO?

The big question all are asking is who is better Lionel Messi or Christiano Ronaldo. Ronaldo may be faster then Messi , and people say Messi scores more goals mainly because Xavi and Andrea Iniesta keep feeding him with very good passes. But this may be true then Ozil feeds Ronaldo. Ronaldo is known to go down far to easilly and get free kicks and penalties. The goals he scores from open play are less compared to Messi,.
Jorge Mendez Ronaldos coach says Christiano Ronaldo is the best player in the world, far better then Pele, maradona and cruiff. What a laugh Pele has won three world cups and scored a over a thousand goals. Maradona won the world cup in 1986. Can Ronaldo win a world cup?

JOSE MOURINHO SAYS LIONEL MESSI DOES NOT DESERVE THE BALLONd OR.

Jose Mourinho the Real Madrid coach does not agree with the result of choosing Lionel Messi of Barcelona as the winner of the Ballond Or. He says that the winner should have been eitherWesley Sneijder or Deigo Milito. Both played under him at Inter Milan.
But let us see why Messi really deserves it.
As he is only 23 years old, and he won the award last year as well. He has scored 60 goals for both club and contrty , Argentina. The figure is fantastic .So he deserves it, even though Xavi to had a good chance of winning it. As Xavi is the heart of Barcelona and Spains passing.With 80 % accurate to either Messi, Villa or Pedro.

2010 BALLON D OR WINNER.

Lionel Messi of Argentina and Barcelona won the inaugural F.I.F.ABallon d Or it was the merging of The f.i.F.A player of the year as well as the Ballon dOr.He won it last year as well.

The nominees were Lionel Messi, Xavi Hernandes and Andrea Ineasta.

The 2010 BALLON D NOMINEES.

The three final nominees for the Ballon dOr winner were all from Barcelona this time. This is the only second time it has happened after the one in 1989, when all three were from A.C. Milan.

THIS HAPPENED IN 1989.

The last time all the three candidates who were nominated for the Ballon,d OR from one club was 1989 , and that team was A.C. Milan. The nominees were Marco Van Basten, Franco Baressi and Frank Raijkard. At that year A.C. Milan was at it peak in Italy as well as Europe, they went that year without a loss in the serie A or for that matter in the Champion league as well.
They had players like Marco van Basten , Ruud Gullit,Franco Baresi, Paulo Maldini, Fank Raijkard, Allesander Costucrutta and Robert Donodhoni.
That year Marco Van Basten won the Ballon d Or.

JUVENTUS WANT ROBIN VAN PERSIE.

the Italian giants Juventus, also called the ILD LADY OF TURIN, want to buy Robin Van Persie from Arsenal. The reason being all their strikers are now on the wrong side of 30 years some are even 35 years.
Juventus are ready to pay Arsenal a sum of 27 million pounds, but the amount could fall as Juventus are willing to give the Brazilian midfielder Felippe Melo as well.
Robin Van Persie joint Arsenal from Feynoord in Holland, for a sum of 2.75 million pounds in the year 2004.

JUVENTUS WANT FERNANDO TORRES.

The Italian football giants Juventus, called The Old Lady Of Turin. Have made it clear that they want the Spanish striker Fernando Torres, who plays his club football with Liverpool in England.
The reason is that the strikers at Juventus are on the verge of retirement, and their darling Alesandro del Piero who is 35 years old will not play for much longer.
After the sacking of Roy Hodgson, Fernando Torres has told his agent to find him a club at his earliest, even if he can find one in the january transfer window.
Juventus have decided to offer Liverpool 45 million pounds. But the question is will Liverpool let go of Torres in the summer.

THIS IS WHY RUSSIA WON 2018 WORLD CUP.

Now F.I.F.A has chosen 2018 world cup to Russia , but thisis how they got it.
F.I.F.A has a few coditions for a country to host the world cup,they are Good stadiums, transport, hospiability. And the main condition put by them is that all the money earned at a world cup should be tazx free to them. But counries like Holland and Belgium disagreed flatly to this. Spain and Portugal members of the E.U.were facing economic failure along with Greece, so they to were not willing to this either. So it fell to Russia who have great reserves of oil and gas reserves, so they did not feel the pinch of the recession. And yes Russia has not held a world cup as yet.So there they were correct to apply for the world cup.And Russia has played in the world cup before.
But not so Quatar, they never played in a world cup, and our 140 plus in the world.But their gas money got them the 2022 world cup.

THIS FORGOTTEN FOOTBALLER.

Kodjovi Obilal was the goalkeeper for Togo national team that was attacked when they came by bus for their match. It left the driver and a staff dead by the terrarists, for their African CUP OF NATIONS ,played in Angola. Togo withdrew from the tournament. And F.i.F.A banned Togo.
But Kodjovi Obilal their goalkeeper was first thought to be dead , but survived.He has under gone operations for his spine, liver and bladder in France.F.i.F.A has paid him 100,000 pounds, butand Togo have paid a little. Also Emmanuel Adebayor has helped him. But nothing has come forward from C.A.F. The confederation of African Football.
With feeling he says it would be a different story if Samuel Etoo or Didier Drogba were shot in his place.
C.A.F. Say Togo broke the rules by coming by bus instead of air.

THIS IS WHY ANCHELOTI IS AT CHELSEA.

Carlo Anchelotti is still the coach of Chelsea , even though they have slipped to the fifth position in the E.P.L.The main reason is that Chelsea and its owner Roman Abrohomovic, is very keen to cut spending. So he got rid of Ricardo Carvalho, Juliano Belletti, Deco, Michael Ballack, all old wood.This year Chelsea has a loss of 40 million pounds already.
And now if they sack the Italian Carlo Anchelotti , Chelsea will have to pay him a compensation of 10 million pounds, this will then make a straight loss of 50 million pounds. The owner does not even want to buy new players in January tranfer window. He wants to do it in the summer.
And the players from the youth team have not done so well as expected, plus the main ones like Drogba, tery , Lampard are in their thirties now.

AS DARREN FERGUSON IS SACKED ALEX FERGUSON REACTS>

The Preston football club sacked their coach Darren Ferguson, the son of the famous Scotish coach, Sir Alex Ferguson. Then Alex Ferguson in anger reacted in a very unspotting manner, just like him. As small football clubs in the lower league can not keep loosing games ,the club acted in their best intrest.
But Alex Ferguson reacted angrily and very unsporting manner, he recalled all the players which Manchester United had given Preston on loan, then and there.the main idea would be to put preasure on Preston. But on 7/1/2011 Preston appointed Phil Brown as their new coach.

THE L.M.A SAYS DO NOT MAKE MANAGERS SCAPEGOATS.

The League for Managers Association, have said it s not fair to make managers as scapegoats, if the team fails to deliver on the pitch. It takes time for a new manager to settle down at a club, and players to settle with him.Today they last for one year three months, but in 1992 it was three to four years in the least.Another problem facing clubs for sacking is they loose a lot of money simple paying comensation and ending a contract. Take Liverpool, they sacked afael Benitez , and paid him over 3 million pounds. They then brpoght in Roy Hodgson to replace him.And now soon he will be shown the door as well, at times like today it is hard money wasted.
Only Arsemal and Manchester United have long serving managers over 15 years.
Real Madrid also hire and fire coaches often. For example Raul Gonsalez the darling of Real Madrid spent 17 years there in that time 16 managers were there at Real Madrid.
One thing is clear that clubs that fail to score goals are at the bottom half of he table, and could be sucked into relegation.

MANCHESTER CITY PLAYERS FIGHT A LOT.

The Manchester City owners may have heaps of money, but the players lack discipline and unity, which is needed. The main reason for this is plain frustration. The players are brought for huge sums of money and are not even getting a chance to be on the bench, but they get their weekly salaries, what a waste of money.

There have been several fights on the pitch as well as the dressing room to.

1) Craig Bellamy had several arguments with Roberto Mancini.

2) Carlos Tevez had several bust ups with Roberto Mancini.

3) Mario Boletelli also had his share of fights with Mancini.

4) Emanuel Adebayor and Kolo Toure had a royal scrap on the pitch and team mates separated them.

5) Boateng and Bolletelli had a fight as well.

Mancini says this is alright, but we do not see it at other clubs , do we?

LUIS SUAREZ TO JOIN SPURS FOR 17 MILLION POUNDS.

Last year Luis Suarez was the top goal scorer in Holland with 37 goals. This 17 million pounds deal will be a Spur s record as the previous highest amount paid for a player was 15.5 million pounds for Liuka Mordic , who joint them from D amino Zagreb.

BECKHAM DOES NOT FIT IN HERE.

It is reported that Harry Redknap is very keen to make a permanent move to get David Beckham from the Los Angles Galaxy to Totternham Hotspur in England. But we must remember that David Beckham is now 35 years, and we should ask a serious question . Is David Beckham needed at Spurs. Rafael Van Der vart is their free kick specialist and is getting goals for them. So why disrupt a well settled team , the team is doing well for the past few years, so why make in major changes now.

According to me David Beckham is not wanted her now.

MANCHESTER UNITED HAVE NOT SOLD TICKETS.

The Red Knights , the strong supporters of the club Manchester United have decided to boycott buying tickets for their game. And this year tickets for the Stoke City game was not sold. So the club sent messages to previous buyers of their tickets. it said Happy New Year , and please buy the tickets for the Stoke game. Their reason is it is the recession that is all.

But Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City sold their season tickets long ago , even with a recession.
