Capturing Gareth Bale Would Be Icing On Jose’s Man United Cake

It looks increasingly likely that Real Madrid are going to go all out this summer in their bid to sign young French sensation Kylian Mbappe from AS Monaco. Madrid’s pursuit could cost them anything between £160m – £173m depending on what report you read. That has led to speculation that Real could be ready to […]

Real Madrid Want Kylian Mbappe As Their New Fenômeno Striker!

  In all honesty I don’t think Real Madrid really wanted to pursue AS Monaco striker Kylian Mbappe’s signature this summer. They’d have been happy to leave the young Frenchman alone and spend another year in the south coast of France. But the increasing unpredictability that has surrounded this transfer window along with the strong […]

Real Madrid’s Zinedine Zidane Is More Than Just A Lucky Manager

We can never underestimate the amount luck plays when it comes to football. Every great team benefits from luck. But I think we now have to accept that Real Madrid boss Zinedine Zidane has more about him than just a lucky streak. Zizou is on the verge of guiding his Real side to a second […]

Antoine Griezmann – The Hero Atletico Need, And Perhaps Even Deserve

Antoine Griezmann was hardly the talking point after the first leg of the all-Madrid Champions League semi-final. Real’s 3-0 victory over Atletico came thanks to Cristiano Ronaldo who grabbed a sensational hat-trick – and all the headlines. Griezmann, by contrast, cast a sunken figure as his side was left with a mountain to climb in […]

Will Real’s Sergio Ramos Ever Learn?

You can’t deny that Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos is a world class talent. He’s a tremendous centre-back, he can score valuable goals and he has an endless amount of passion coursing through his veins. The thirty-one year old has also managed to win pretty much every major trophy there is out there worth winning. But […]

Ten Amazing Transfers That Nearly Happened!

As this January transfer window comes to a close tonight, I thought it would be fun to look at some superb deals that very nearly happened! I say nearly, how close I don’t actually know but they have now gone down in footballing folklore. RONALDO TO RANGERS 1997 In 1997 Ronaldo was football’s hottest property […]

Why Dele Alli Should Stay At Spurs

Like everyone else, I have been extremely impressed with Dele Alli’s performances for Tottenham Hotspur this season. But I can’t say that I’ve been surprised by his star turns. I remember in late 2014 hearing former MK Dons boss Karl Robinson discussing his young talent. Robinson enthused about Alli and stated passionately that the sky […]

Did Real Madrid Really Want Man Utd’s David De Gea?

It seemed like the most obvious transfer of the summer. David De Gea would surely leave Manchester United for Spanish giants Real Madrid. After all the goalkeeper only has a year left on his current United deal and had already agreed personal terms with Madrid. Then on deadline day, a deal was agreed between the […]

Real Madrid Wouldn’t Dream Of Selling Gareth Bale To Man Utd This Summer

The past weekend brought us yet another Manchester United/Gareth Bale link. Reports suggest a bid in the region of £86.5m or even as high as £95m will be offered to get the deal done. To be honest I just can’t see the Premier League giants paying that much for one player, even one as talented […]

More Fool Man United If They Believed They’d Sign Sergio Ramos This Summer

It has been widely reported that Spanish international Sergio Ramos is ready to commit his future to current employers Real Madrid. It’s amazing how quickly things can change in football. Only last month we were being told that the Spanish defender was determined to quit the La Liga giants and had his heart set on […]
