ARSENAL LADIES WIN THEIR NINTH TITLE ON TROT.
Yes Arsenal may not have won a trophy in seven years so what?
The Arsenal ladies team have now won their ninth Premiere league title on a trot. It is not easy to win a trophy in nine running years.
In the final match they defeated Doncaster City , with a score of 3-2. And as Birmingham City ladies team only managed to draw their match , the Arsenal team won the title for the ninth time, some achievement I must say, as in the E.P.L no team has won three titles on a trot.
And the Arsenal ladies team are doing very well in their Champion League, they defeated Barcelona.

TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS WIN VERSES MANCHESTER UNITED.
It was a great day for Tottenham Hotspurs when they defeated Manchester United at OLD TRAFFORD, their fortress.
History was made on 29/9/2012.When Tottenham Hotspurs defeated Manchester United for the first time in twenty three years, they last defeated Manchester United at OLD TRAFFORD way back in 1989, and the player to score that winning goal for Tottenham Hotspurs was the great Gary Linekar, he is a player who has never been shown a red or yellow card in his career.
There were a total of 26 games played between the two clubs with 22 games ending in draws , in 26 years.
The goal scorers were Gareth Bale, Clint Dempsey and Juan Vertongeon for Spurs, Luis Nani and Kwangwa scored for Manchester United.

But let us see where the Spurs stand in January end.

CHELSEA MAKE NEW RULES.
Roman Abrahomic the Russian owner of Chelsea has now made a new rule at Chelsea, and it has not gone well with the oldies at the club.The rule is that players who are thirty years of age, will get only one year contract. Nothing wrong with it at all as players at thirty plus are likely to loose their pace and get more injuries.
Arsenal had this rule for years. Robert Pires wanted a two year contract but Arsenal were giving him only one year, so he left for Villarreal . The great Dennis Bergkamp had to sign a yearly new contract , and he played till he was 39 years.
This rule will affect Ashley Cole 31 years, Frank Lampard 34 years and John Terry 31 years.
Real Madrid want Ashley Cole . Frank Lampard could very well go to the M.L.S. and join David Beckham at the Los Angles Galaxy.
Ashley Cole and John Terry are watched by Carlo Anchelotti of P.S.G .

MANCINI SAYS CITY WILL KEEP THE TITLE.
Roberto Mancini has been very sure that Manchester City will win the E.P.L in the year 2012/2013.
But the results are not very good. In the seven matches Manchester City have played so far they have only won two matches in all, and were recently knocked out of the League cup by Aston Villa with a score of 4-2 , after extra time was added.But what should really be worrying Roberto Mancini Joe Hart the City goalkeeper has let in a total of 14 goals .Mind you Joe Hart who was the winner of the Golden Glove for the best goalkeeper , for the last two years has let in 14 goals and so far Manchester City have yet to keep a clean sheet in this new season.
And Manchester City have the best defenders from all over the world.
NO MONEY IN THE POT FOR FERGUSON.
The truth is finally out Manchester United are now facing hard times financially , Sir Alex Ferguson has been told by the Manchester United board that there is no money at all in the pot for the January transfer window.
It is indeed a sad day for such a big and proud club with nineteen titles and three Champion League cups as well.
So the Glazers have milked Manchester United well and truly well. This is also a big warning for the Manchester City fans their small club could well end up this way as well.Do not forget what happened to Portsmouth, Leeds United and Glasgow Rangers all went bust.
People mock Arsenal for not winning a trophy in seven years. Glasgow Rangers won the most trophies in the world 54 of them today they play in the third division.What a fall.
MIRASLOV KLOSE IS A REAL SPORTSMAN.
the German striker Miraslov Klose who plays his club football in Italy with Lazio . In the match verses Napoli the ball hit Miraslov Klose on the hand and went in the back of the net, first the referee gave the goal and there was a major prtest from the Napoli players.
After Klose requested the referee to wipe out the goal, which he did. The match then ended 3-0 in a Napoli win.
My memort goes back to a E.P.L match between West Ham United verses Everton , the Italian player Paulo Di Canio caught the ball in the hand after the Everton goalkeeper was lying motionless on the ground , DicCanio had a empty net in front of him then. These are sporting spirits shown by players , sadly not seen today.

THE F.A ARE ABOVE THE LAW IN ENGLAND.
The English F.A are absolute idiots. They have gone and banned John Terry for a total of four matches and fined him 220,000 pounds, that is a little over a weeks salary for Terry. The reason was because he racially abused Anton Ferdinand in the match verses Q.P.R which Chelsea lost .
Now John Terry can appeal .Now the Question is will the ban come into affect after he fails that appeal, or will he play the game verses Arsenal?
This verdict is not at all fair , please note I am not a John Terry fan.
1) Luis Suarez got eight match bann for racially abusing Patrice Evra in the game Liverpool verses Manchester United.
2) John Terry was declared not guilty by the jury and the court. How can a man be tried for the same crime twice and be found not guilty by a court, but guilty by the F.A.This is mocking the judicial system of the U.K, it is a shame.
We must now lock up the courts all lawyers and judges should retire as the F.A is above the law here.What a farce.
Did the F.A want the 200,000 pounds to build a office? Really disgusting.

HE SAYS ITALIAN FOOTBALL IS CORRUPT.
The Argentinean footballer Mathias Almedya has sais in his biography that Italian football is corrupt to its core , with clubs doping as well.He played for Lazio, Pharma, Inter Milan and Bresica .
He says that at his time at Parma he was given i.v. fluids drips before matches making him jump to the ceiling.
Stefafano Tanzi the former owner of Parma , who was the owner of Parmalet milk company that went bankrupt , used these methods and when the two had a argument over these methods Mathias Almedyas house was burgled.
Match fixing is a big thing in Italy in 2001 Parma was allowed to beat Roma so in other words Juventus failed to win the title.
In the 2010 world cup Italian referees were banned by F.I.F.A , Juventus lost two titles and had nine points deducted. Antonio Conte has got ten month bans from all matches.
In Italy even the Mafia come in the picture , a very sad state of things in Italian football.
STATUE OF ZIDANE HEADBUTTING IS SET UP.
A bronze statue standing four meters of the ill famous incident of the 2006 world cup final, in which the French play maker Zinedine Zidane head butted the Italian defender Marco Matrezzi , for something said by Materazzi to Zidane that lead to this ugly scene .
Both got red cards and ended the great career of Zinedine Zidane.
The French artist who made the statue wanted to show the other side of the great Hero Zinedine Zidane. It stands at the Centre Of Pompidou.
Please note Zinedine Zidane headbutted Marco matrezzi in the chest, but this Italian cheat fell to the ground holding his head, he did also role on the ground.

CHELSEA CALL IN THE POLICE.
The Chelsea football club have called the police to investigate a case of several thefts at the famous club.
A lot of watches, wallets and even mobile phones were taken from the players dressing room at the academy, even a knife was found in the room.
DID SONG GO OR WAS HE SOLD?
The question of Arsenal being a feeder club is not true , it is these young players who want to go, and they are the culprits, Arsenal want let them go free so they make their money.
Take Alexander Song for example he joined Arsenal at 17 years and stayed for seven years at Arsenal. He always said he wanted to be at Arsenal for life.
But now he says Barcelona asked for him in june 2012. And he started being lazy on the pitch , he was late for training all tricks to get sold too Barcelona.And so he was.
But Arsenal this year are better then last year with Robin Van Persie and Song.
Song joins the rest to move from Arsenal to Barcelona, Theirry Henry, Giovani Bronchurst, Aleksander Hlep,Marc Overmars, Emmanuel Petit, Cesc Fabregas, Alexander Song and so on.
E.P.L CLUBS ARE ON ALERT FOR THE RUSSIAN.
The premiere clubs are all ready to get the Russian skipper Igor Denlisov, who plays his club football with St Zeneith {Petersburg .
The problem all started when the club got the Brazilian footballer Hulk and Axel Witsel for a combined fee of seventy two, 72 million pounds.Things got sour when these two players are now getting a weekly salary three times of the rest of the players, Igor Denlisov this is not at all justified.
To make matters worse Igor Denlisov has been demoted and told to train with the youth team
A VERY COSTLY BEER CAN INDEED.
The Dinamo Zagreb midfielder Domingo Vida , who is 23 years old was fined 80,000 pounds for opening a can of beer in the bus on his way to play a match. So this has to be the costliest beer can ever.
The Brazilian born footballer Samir was fined 270,000 Euros, for partying late into the night at a night club on the eve of a champion league match against the Moldovan club Sheriff Transport.

COULD BARCELONA COME FOR ARSENALS TRIO?
It is reported in THE DAILY STAR that Barcelona are very keen on the Arsenal trio.
The trio are Abou Diaby, Jack Wilshere and Thomas Vermalean.
If they do get them that would mean that Barcelona have pinched a player in each of the three years. First Cesc Fabregas, this year Alexander Song.
But Barcelona did not show much interest then as all three have come from a long time injuries.
These targets are wanted to replace aging stars of Barcelona Carles Puyol and the Master Xavi Hernandez.
This is clear at the young talent Arsenal spot and develop, just like getting uncut diamonds smoothened and polished.

VIDIC IS OUT FOR EIGHT WEEKS.
The big defender and captain of Manchester United Nemnja Vidic has been told he would be out for eight weeks after undergoing a knee operation.
He originally complained of a tightness in the knee, a closer extermination confirmed he needed that operation. Now what will he miss?
He will now miss three champion league games and also the E.P.L games verses Chelsea and Arsenal. Not at all a good picture for Alex Ferguson.
His main defenders are injured, Cris Smalling, Phil Jones, and Johnny Evans took a big knock in the Liverpool match. This means Rio Ferdinand and Michael Carrick will be called as a defender again, with Fabio DSilva on loan it is tight a gloomy at the back.

2) Joleon Lescott. 30 years.

MICHAEL PLATINI WANTS THE 2022 WORLD CUP IN WINTER.
The U.E.F.A president Michael Platini wants to hold the 2022 world cup in Qatar in the winter. As he very well knows that it would be next to impossible for footballers to run around for ninety minutes , or later on for 120 minutes in the temperature of 45 or 50 degrees in the month of june and july.
He wants the European football season to finish one month later, due to the loss of a month.
I am sure F.I.F.A were very well aware of the temperature Qatar would have in the month of june and July.But as F.I.F.A is such a corrupt organisation , money speaks volume here , so the gas and oil money played a big hand here in getting both 2018 world cup in Russia and the 2022 world cup in Qatar as well.
REFREE MARK HASLEY GETS TWITTER THREATS.
Re free Mark Hasley who was the referee for the emotional match between Manchester United and Liverpool, these matches are always great and you can always expect crowd trouble, with a crazy fan getting carried away. It happened again.
It was the red card shown to a Liverpool player in the 36th minute. And giving a penalty to Manchester United when Antonio Valencia cane down in the box, mind you there was no contact at all. As usual Manchester United need the help of the referee to save their day. The game ended 2-1 in the favor of Manchester United.
The Liverpool fans were rightly angry over the poor , poor referee.They attacked Mark Hasley , as he has returned from throat cancer, the twitter said hope cancer gets you.
Mark Hasley has complained to the police now.
But what I fail to understand is why a referee can not consult a linesman before giving such doubtful decisions.
Here Liverpool were robbed by the referee, it was a hollow victory for Manchester United.

John Obi Mikel the footballer from Nigeria , who plays his football in England with the English club Chelsea. He was got in to replace the aging the Claude Makallelee French footballer.

THE REAL MADRID AND RAYA VALLECANO GAME IS POSTPONED.
The Spanish La Liga match between Real Madrid and Raya Vallecano has been postponed since Sunday. The reason for the postponement of the football match was as there was a sabotage to the stadiums flood lights . Making it impossible to play the game at night.
Real Madrid had also requested the Spanish F.A. to allow the two clubs to play the postponed match during the day. But this was flatly denied to Real Madrid.
But the club president has said that inquires will go ahead to find the real culprits, who did it. The camera will be used to trace them.
LIVERPOOL WERE ROBBED OF POINTS.
In the famous match between Liverpool and Manchester United Liverpool took the lead in the end minutes of the first half by a steven Gerrard goal. But early on Liverpool lost a player Shevley for making a lunge on Johnny Evans all his studs were showing, but so was all the studs of Johnny Evans showing, so in that case Johnny Evans should also have been shown a straight red card as well. But as Usual the referees are always lenient on Manchester United players , here it was Phil Dowd, shame on him.
He did not crown himself with glory when he gave Manchester United a penalty , when Antonio Valencia fell outside the box without a major contact made. Jose Pepe Reina protested and was shown a yellow card.The penalty was struck by Robin Van Persie.
Mind you this is the fifth penalty won by Manchester United in five games
Ferguson should hang his head in shame as it was a hollow victory and three points gifted by the F.A ad Phil Dowd. Liverpool were stolen a point by Manchester United.
This is happening to often sadly. It should be like Austrlian rugby , the referee could be tried for wrong decisions.
THE BEAUTY OF ARSENAL.
Arsenal and Arsenal club are just great. You must remember that key players are iinjured like Bacry Sagna, Thomas Vermalen , Jack Wilshere and Tomas Rosicky.
Each year after Barcelona and Manchester City buy the best players from Arsenal, Arsene Wenger replaces them with quality players. This year Robin Van Persie also joined Manchester United, last year Robin Van Persie scored 30 goals for Arsenal and Alexander Song gave eleven assists to Persie last year, both have now gone but Santi Corzola is doing well with Poldoski in strike.
This year Arsenal are in the top five and have yet to be defeated.
Other clubs would be in disarray if a top goal scorer left.

WHAT A YEAR DID FOR ARSENAL.
Last year was terrible start for Arsenal, both Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri left Arsenal, and Arsenal were fighting relegation that year , they were seventeenth in table in the month of September. And it took thirty goals last year to see that Arsenal reach the third place and qualify for the champion league.
Thewre was last day buying and some players were average, and injuries were plenty Jack Wilshere has yet to play a game.
But there was a new assistant to Arsene Wenger, old loyal Pat Rice retire and Steve Bould joined up.
This year Arsenal are not leaking any goals so easily as they did last year. They are fifth on the table with a win over Liverpool, and a draw with mighty rich Manchester City.
So this year could be Arsenals year. This year Robin Van Persie has left Arsenal and Theo Walcott wants to go as well.

JOHN TERRY RETIRES FROM NATIONAL TEAM.
John Terry the Chelsea center back , who played a total of 78 times for England , has now announced his retirement fom the English football team.
He was a very good player and gave both heart and soul to the game.His last game was against Moldova . In this match he was injured and hobbling around but carried on, as Roy Hodgson described him as a GLADIATOR.
But he was a player who was always in the news for something or the other.
The main reasons were when he slept with his friend and Chelsea team mates Italian ex wife.
The Anton Ferdinand case was another won. Ferdinand accused John Terry of racial abuse , but Terry was cleared by the jury.
Now the F.A. want to try him for that crime again. This was the last straw which has now lead to Terry retiring from football for England.
My point is how can the F.A try John Terry for a crime where the jury have already tried him, and found him not guilty.
He was a great footballer , but there were always questions about him as a man.

CHELSEA EYE SERGIO RAMOS.
Chelsea are watching with keen interest at the development in Spain , with their twenty six year old defender Sergio Ramos. As Ramos and Jose Mourinho are not on good terms at the moment. For the matter Ramos was not even on the bench for this years Champion League match between Real Madrid and Manchester City, played at the Bernabaue.
Chelsea in the summer transfer window were keen to get the Brazilian Maicon, but he went and joined Manchester City.
And the Chelsea coach is even more concerned as Chelsea threw away a two goal lead to Juventus, and the match ended 2-2, in the champion league first leg, two very precious points dropped.So Chelsea may go for Ramos in January.
Mourinho is also angry over the coments made by Sergio Ramos after the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona. THE EL CLASSIC0.

ALL IS NOT WELL AT REAL MADRID.
Real Madrid won their first match in the champion league verses Manchester City , with a score of 3-2 , a last minute goal by Cristiano Ronaldo.
But even with the result going their way all does not seem to be well at Real Madrid.Sergio Ramos, Mezut Ozil and Luka Modric were on the bench.
It is rumored that Sergio Ramos spoke out of turn and so he was left out. Mind you Sergio Ramos is expected to take over the armband from Iker Casillas.
Jose Mourinho has done the same thing in 2005 while he was with Chelsea , when he kept both Ricardo Carvalho and also Arjen Robben on the bench. Carvalho questioned Mourinho and Arjen Robben objected to him being replaced.
LIVERPOOL LOOK TO REPLACE STEVEN GERRARD.
Liverpool are keen to replace their long time loyal player Steven Gerrard , with a young a long time replacement for Liverpool.
The Liverpol club are looking at the Spaniard midfielder who plays his football in Spain with Malaga.
This player Isko was wanted by Barcelona, but the Spaniards father objected to the move to Barcelona. Will he support a club for the son which is in the relegation last three in the E.P.L. Yes it is very early times to say anything.

Even though Mario Bolotelli was taken to Spain he was not even on the bench, for the Real Madrid game.
He was dropped for disciplinary reasons, they were for Balotelli refusing to give up smoking and the second reason was that Bolotelli was parting late into the night after the draw game with Stoke City.Mancini had told his City players that no late nights would be allowed.As he wanted them fresh for the big game verses Real Madrid.
Mancini has told Bolotelli to go for counselling but he has refused to go flatly.

FUNNY THE PRESS AND FANS FAIL TO PICK ON WENGER.
It is funny all these seven years the press and the Arsenal as well as the football all over the world were after the blood of Arsene Wenger , and even demanded that he should resign when Arsenal were once seventeenth on the table last year.
But this year they have only praises for him third on the E.P.L table and a win in their first Champion League game verses Montpelier.

But for those who do not know the history well of English clubs . It was a very proud club of long ago , now knocked down to second or even third tier division. But in their glory years they have even won the oldest cup in England THE F.A.CUP a few times.

BARCELONA WANT TIM KRUL.
The Spanish giants want a good back up goalkeeper for Victor Valdez . As the present number two goalkeeper for Barcelona is Jose Pinto , who is already 36 years old, and will not get a new contract next season.
The Barcelona coach has told the club that they should look out for a good one for the new season.
The one that has caught the eye at Barcelona , is the Dtch keeper Tim Krul, who plays for Newcastle United.
But yes Tim Krul is very good and forced his way into the Dutch team. But will Tim Krul like to warm the bench at Barcelona Jose Pinto, Tim Krul.
RONALDO WANTS 480,000 POUNDS A WEEK.
Cristian Ronaldo wants a weekly salary of 480,000 pounds in his new contract.
Is this fair? When Spain are on their knees economically.He is just plain greedy and arrogant.
He mainly came to Spain to knock out Lionel Messi from the perch. But it has not gone that way at all.
While Ronaldo is greedy and Arrogant Lionel Messi and Andrea Iniesta on the other hand are so much more humble , and both the Barcelona players say that they did it because of the Barcelona team. Ronaldo would never give any body else credit like the Barcelona legends.
MANCHESTER UNITED LOSS OF 2011.
The failing of Manchester United to proceed in the Champion league cost the club 24 million pounds. They also lost a lot of gate money when they were knocked out of F.A CUP forth round last year.
They also lost gate money this year as well, the reason being the anger by the fans on the club owners the Glazers.
But they made up in money from the T.V deals and a record sponsor deal for their jerseys starting next year , by Chevrolet.
But mind you it is not at all that bad, with the economic problems and the heavy taxes in England, compared to Spain and Italy.
But Manchester United can still pay 250,000 pounds a week to Wayne Rooney.

WHY ARE ALL BIG CLUBS AFTER ARENAL PLAYERS.
It is indeed funny that all big clubs like Barcelona, Chelsea aand Manchester City are after the young Arsenal footballers.
Yes I do agree that they are young talented stars.A few years ago nibody knew or even heard of Jack Wilshere, The Ox, Theo Walcott, Samir Nasri, Emmanuel Adebayor and so on.
Certainly Arsenal must be highly flattered when Barcelona, Chelsea, A.C.Milan and City come knocking on their doors.
Arsenal kave something that other youngsters at other clubs are lacking.

RONALDO WILL NOT JOIN MANCHESTER CITY.
Cristiano Ronaldo , who plays for Real Madrid in Spain has given a hint that as he is not happy at Real Madrid , he could very well be moving.
Ronaldo had said a he wanted a weekly wage of 480,000 pounds after tax.
This huge and unrealistic demand can only be met by a very few clubs like P.S.G., Manchester United and Manchester City.
But there is one thing very clear he will not join Manchester City, as he does not want to hurt Sir Alex Ferguson who got him to Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon for 12 million pounds.
Ferguson then treated Ronaldo as his own son.

SAGNA IS PUZZLED BY THE SALE OF SONG.
The French defender Sagna is puzzled by the sale of Alexander Song.
Robin Van Persie had decided ages ago that he would leave Arsenal for Manchester United and not for Manchester City, as Robin Van Persie and Emmanuel were not on talking terms, after the match in 2009 between Arsenal and Manchester City, when Adebayors studds scraped Robin Van Persies cheak. Yes he was moving to Manchester United, but you do not get 24 million pounds for a 29 year old footballer with just one good year in eight years.
Arsenal do not have a SUGAR DADDY like Manchester City , Wenger was told to sell a player and make 15 million pounds , so the Song deal was done.
Arsenal sell players and then buy new ones . money was needed for Santi Corzala.
But the Arsenal fans like me are very happy, a club without big spending has reached the Champion league for sixteen years in a row, only three clubs have done that in Champion League history.
And mind you HISTORY CAN NOT BE BOUGHT WITH MONEY EVER.
Arsenal are paying interest on the money taken for the Emirates Stadium,.
You Arsenal fans just think still Arsenal is the only club making big money each year.

WHO IS BETTER OF THE TWO..
The world compares the two best footballers in the world Lionel Messi of Argentina and Barcelona .And Cristiano Ronaldo of Portugal and Real Madrid.
Ronaldo is getting a weekly salary of 250,000 pounds . While Lionel Messi gets a weekly salary of 180,000 pounds.
Ronaldo now wants a weekly salary of 480,000 pounds.Messi is happy with his salary.
Ronaldo has a big ego, and dives a lot to get a free kick and penalty.
Lionel Messi is cleaner player.
Ronaldo of pitch life with girls is bad one, with to many girl friends and a illegitimate child from a waitress .
Messi still goes with the same Italian girlfriend.
NEYMAR REJECTS MANCHESTER UNITED .
According to THE SUN the Brazilian striker Neymar was wanted by Manchester United . Manchester United even made a 38 million pounds deal.
Ney,ar who plays his club football in Brazil with Santos, rejected the move to the E.P.L. as he wanted to stay on at Santos till the year 2014, and the world cup to be held in Brazil in 2014.
But today Santos denied that Manchester United ever did make a bid for Neymar.
RONALDO WANTS THIS CONTRACT.
Christiano Ronaldo has become far to greedy, he wants a new contract with a weekly salary of 480,000 pounds, that will make it 25 million pounds., He now gets nine million pounds. This is just ridiculous . After all a quarter of the Spanish people are without a job.
Ronaldo says that his unhappiness at Real Madrid is not at all about money.
The real problem is a more serious one, there is a rift between the Real Madrid players who are Spanish like Iker Casillas, Sergio Ramos and Xavi Alonso.And on the other hand footballers from Portugal are on the other side.They are Jose Mourinho, Pepe, Marciello and Fabio Conteraou . Some are not on talking terms even.
Ronaldo asking for 500,000 pounds a week at a time of recession as a sad matter.
No footballer in the world should be paid 500,000 pounds a week.Ronaldo is just a spoilt brat.

FALCAO TO JOIN CHELSEA.
It is reported in THE DAILY MAIL that in the month of January when the transfer window does open , Radamel Falcao Garcia , the Colombian striker who plays his club football in Spain with Atletico Madrid , and who singly defeated Chelsea single handedlly by scoring a a hat trick in the super cup.
Now his father Radamel senior says his son always wanted to join Chelsea from childhood. I doubt it very much,.
It is more likely Chelsea have come forward to buy him in january., even as his buy out clause is 55 million pounds.
RODGERS TO SIGN FREE AGENT.
Brendon Rodgers is really desperate the reason Liverpool are down at the bottom of the table . And to make matters worse he has given Andy Carroll on a years loan to West Ham United. And he has failed to get a replacement for him by the last day. He was sure of getting Clint Dempsey, but the American joined another club.
The choice is bid tough one to choose from as these strikers are well passed their glory days.
1) Michael Owen. 32 years.
2) Alessandro Del Piero. 37 years.
3) Emile Heskey. 34 years.
They could all be injury prone players as well at this age.

RONALDO COULD BE BACK IN THE E.P.L.
Cristiano Ronaldo has shaken Real Madrid well truly .
Ronaldo said he was not happy at Real Madrid, and to prove it he did not celebrate the two goals he scored verses Granda, it was goal number 149 and goal 150. A very big moment to celebrate.
He said he was not at all happy at Real Madrid and the Real Madrid know it very well.
He did not say the reasons for being unhappy at Real Madrid.
But the reasons could very well be as both Jose Mourinho and Ronaldo both have very big egos it must have clashed. Or he may not be happy with a few team mates.
The third reason could be , that as only two years of his contract remain Real Madrid have not spoken of renewing it .
He will be having a meeting with the president of Real madrid Firentino Perez, also with sporting director Mr Sanchez as well as his agent Jorge Mendez, please note Jorge Mendez is the agent to both Ronaldo as Well as Jose Mourinho.
Another player unhappy at Real madrid is 30 year old Kaka.
MESSI WILL VISIT ENGLAND.
The Argentinean footballer Lionel Messi, who is considered the worlds best footballer.
Will be visiting England soon. No there is no reason to get excited as he will not join up with any English club. He will only be coming for a wax statue, he will be the another footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, David Beckham who have had statues in Madame Tussaud.
ALL ABOUT ARSENAL AND LIVERPOOL.
This is some honest truths of Arsenal and Liverpool clubs.
This season Arsenal have not yet conceded a single goal, but last year during Arsenals bad start in their first three games they let in ten goals.
On the otherhand this is Liverpool's worst start in fifty long years . Liverpool have are 1n the relegation bottom three clubs. This last happened in 1962. The year of the Beatles from Liverpool, who started of as the LIVERPOOL BOYS.

ATLETICO MADRID WIN THE EUROPES SUPER CUP.
The Europe's Super Cup was played between the Champion League winner Chelsea and the Europa League winner, formerly called the U.E.F.A cup.
Chelsea were thrashed and humiliated , loosing out by a huge margin of 4-1 score.
The Colombian striker Radamel Falcao Garcia scored a grand hat trick, and Miranda scored the forth goal.
Gary Cahil scored the lone goal for Chelsea.
It was no wonder that the Chelsea owner was willing to spend fifty million pounds for the Colombian hit man.
But Falcao had made it very, very clear that he was happy in Spain and had no desire to move to England.
So the big spenders Chelsea can expect tough games in Europe, it is another thing in the E.P.l.
