SOME YOUNG TALENTED PRODIGYS TO BE FAILURES AT THEIR CLUB.

All hopeful football prodigy's need not be a success at their clubs. They may have great talent but possibly the pressure was to much.Take the few of them here. 1) Nicolas Bendtner. Arsenal. 2) Fredrick Macheida. Manchester United. 3) Anderson. Manchester United. In fact Anderson after staying in England for eight long years, he even refused to learn a single word of English. So the Norweign prodigy martin Odegaard need not be a wonder kid at Real Madrid either , time will tell.

HE WOULD BE VERY USEFUL AT ARSENAL .

It is reported in the L, EQUIPE that Arsenal are in the mood to sign a very proven striker at the club , mainly after both Lukas Podolski left on a loan to Italy with Inter Milan and Joel Campbell on a loan with the Spanish club Villarreal. Well who do you think the press is talking about at the closing days of the January transfer window? He is the Croatian striker Mario Mandzukic , who had made a name for himself at Bayern Munich, and who was got at Atletico Madrid to fill the shoes of the departed Diego Costa , who joined Chelsea for over thirty two million pounds. It also said that Arsenal are willing to pay the 26, twenty six million pounds in his buy out clause. But what we must remember here is that Atletico Madrid are in debt of about ninety million pounds or so, and are forced to sell their players against their will.

ARSENAL SIGN GABRIEL PAULISTA FROM VILLARREAL.

Arsenal have finally signed Gabriel Paulista , from the Spanish club Villarreal, also called the Yellow Submarines, as they play in a all yellow kit, after the song made famous by the Beatles. Gabriel Paulista is a Brazilian footballer, a central defender, but who has not played as yet for Brazil. The price is said to be eleven million pounds. Arsenal did have trouble where this transfer was concerned, as he was not having a work permit, and was not from the E.U country. And in the part of the transfer was that the Costa Rican striker Joel Campbell would join Villarreal ona season long loan.

CRISTIANO RONALDO GETS JUST TWO MATCH BAN FOR KICKING, PUNCHING AND SLAPPING A PLAYER.

The disciplinary panel which judged the crazy behavior of Cristiano Ronaldo on the pitch verses Cordoba. Here he slapped a player punched another and even kicked him, but what was the punishment given to him. It is absolutely disgusting on the part of the panel as they gave him just a two match ban, just because he was Cristiano Ronaldo and a Real Madrid player. The biggest culprit here is the referee who calmly says that he never saw the incident , only showed the red card for kicking.But we can see it on T.V. in India, and there were actually four referees on the pitch, any one could have brought it to the referees notice, shame on these so called referees, who are paid per game. Would lionel Messi or for the fact Luis Suarez from Barcelona be given two match bans if they did the same thing? I doubt it they would give them lengthy bans for sure. The rules clearly say if a player gets a straight red card he must miss three matches, and one match if he is shown a red card after two yellow cards. Is Ronaldo fit to be role model for boys as Ball on D or winner?

F.I.F.A INVESTIGATE REAL MADRID FOR FIFTY ONE UNDER AGE SIGNINGS.

Now Real Madrid are being investigated by F.I.F.A for signing young footballers under age according to F.I.F.A. The F.I.F A rules say that a footballer must be eighteen years old before he can sign for a club. Otherwise the boy must be between sixteen to eighteen years, and must come from the European Union , then the parents of the boy must move to where the club is , for example here, the parents should move to Madrid, for none footballing reasons. The reason could be that these boys at a tender age could miss their parents. But signing boys of twelve years is not allowed in any way. Barcelona had signed a fourteen year old boys from South Korea and Nigeria . So Barcelona were punished from buying or selling players for a year. Here fifty one youngsters are being investigated at Real Madrid.

PHILIPPE MEXES SEES RED FOR HOLDING THE THROAT OF STEFFANO MAURI.

The french footballer Philippe Mexes who is 32 years old and plays for A.C.Milan in Italy. n the match between A.C.Milan and Lazio , Philippe Mexes was shown a straight red card for holding the throat of the Lazio captain Steffano Mauri. He now faces a three match game. But in the E.P.L where the referees are blind bats such punishments are not there. For example in the match betwen Arsenal and stoke City, the Stoke player Charlie Adams was strangling Alexis Sanchez , but not even a yellow card was shown. So the standard of refereeing is indeed very poor in England.

EIGHTEEN ARSENAL PLAYERS HAVE SCORED GOALS THIS YEAR , THE MOST IN THE E.P.L.

A lot of talk as going around the football world that Arsenal is only a one man team, and the man was the Chilean Alexis Sanchez.

Aston Villa come second with seven goal scorers.

NOW REAL MADRID SIGN UNDER AGE FOOTBALLERS.

First it was one Spanish giant Barcelona who had signed young footballers , at the age of twelve years .Barcelona were punished for breaking F.I.F.A rules, and were told that they would not be allowed to buy or even for that matter sell a footballer from the January transfer window of 2015 to the next January transfer window of 2016. Now it is the turn of the other Spanish giant to break the same F.I.F.A rules. According to THE DAILY MAIL , Real Madrid have signed two twelve year old boys from Venezuela, and loaned them to anther Spanish youth club. Now the big question I ask is whether Real Madrid will face the same punishment as Barcelona. Or will they get away with it just because they are REAL MADRID.

CRISTIANO RONALDO KICKS PUNCHES AND SLAPS A DEFENDER.

The Real Madrid star has really fallen low, his acts were unacceptable and really unpardonable by either F.I.F.A, U.E.F.A or for the matter Real Madrid. He completely lost his marbles on the pitch, in the match between Real Madrid and Cordoba , which ended 2-1 in Real Madrid's favor largely to a late penalty scored by Gareth Bale. Cristiano Ronaldo first punched then slapped and finally kicked his own Real Madrid defender. No matter what the mistake is the F.I.F.A rules do not allow you to hit and kick a player. He should get five match ban straight away. Wel people always compare Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi as the best player, and here the Cristiano Ronaldo fans will be surely upset here as Ronaldo has got a few red cards while Lionel Messi has yet to get a red card at Barcelona in thirteen years The frustration was that the former flop of Manchester United BEBE outshown Cristiano Ronaldo in the match for Cordoba.
