Thursday, 11. 26. 2009  –  Category: La Liga, Liverpool, Premier League, Real Madrid

There aren’t many pictures of Ruud running with the ball…

After the Michael Owen mini saga this summer, it would make sense that another Real Madrid alumnus to embrace his former club’s bitterest rivals. In this instance one, R. van Nistelrooy, former ambassador of the Lorg Ferg’s Empire of Salford, and now benchwarmer that the [...]

Rafael van der Vaart to Liverpool

Thursday, 08. 20. 2009  –  Category: La Liga, Liverpool, Premier League, Real Madrid

The Times is really scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one, even by their own admission: “…given that the Holland playmaker would cost about £10 million and Benítez has nearly exhausted his budget, there is little chance of a deal”. So no mention of sources and an admission that Liverpool don’t have the [...]

Rummenigge: „Ich möchte nicht über Summen sprechen, weil das nicht in unserem Interesse ist. Es ist keine Frage der Summe. Es wird immer der Eindruck vermittelt, Bayern München würde den Preis hochtreiben und dann bei einer bestimmten Summe bereit sein, Franck abzugeben. Ich sage es nochmal mit klaren Worten: Wir wollen, dass Ribéry bleibt.“

Gael Clichy to Real Madrid

Friday, 06. 12. 2009  –  Category: Arsenal, La Liga, Premier League, Real Madrid

The shopping continues at Madrid, and although the Clichy doesn’t appear anywhere in Perez’s “Dream Team” shopping list, if Madrid are in fact serious about improving their team, not just buying lots of forwards, then Clichy would present an excellent opportunity to do so.  Madrid need to upgrade pretty much every position (keeper excepted) on [...]
