what is it with Madrid, they just keep signing the best for there team, thats not fair, after everyone leaves Madrid they suck too. They are like the Yankees of soccer
That is more like chelsea. Real madrid dont go crazy in the international transfer market like they use too. If you see their squad its not like its filled with HUGE superstars, its like any other big team. Chelsea have taken the role of being the galacticos of football. And to be fair, madrid doesnt really need to try so hard to attract big star players, its the most succesful team in europe and the attraction that it holds for ronaldo is understandable. I guess he will go eventually but maybe not this season, especially if ferguson doesnt want to sell him. Maybe in a few years when his form starts to dip or he gets in one of those epic ego clashes with sir alex.
I heard the pitch was a right mess the day before, the russians just put it in or something. Ah, I saw the cashley changing the studs didnt know it was to do with the pitch...my hopes were raised though, because at first i thought he was in pain...but alas it was not to be and he continued.
Give it time. I expect it to dominate the headlines in the coming weeks. Probably a player will say something and it will end in a war of words like it always does...I wonder if grant will keep his job, i first thought he was a joke, but on his achievments have been pretty impressive. Although barnsley and tottenham have been pretty funny, i think he did a alright job overall.

Time for another Peter Crouch scoring spreeThe euro's are coming and england is playing a friendly too! I wonder what capello will do, he still adjusting i suppose, but i hope for a good match. (i.e 10:0 to england

I agree Real Madrid's recent market policy has improved a lot last 2 years. I just wonder if that had a hand of Capello. Up till he came, Madrid had thousands of superstars and in unbalanced positions. I think he cleaned the house when he came. Then Schuster came and didnt get too excited with the financial power of the club and Robben was probably the only 'star' hired last season.

As for the final, it was a match of two halves. United dominated in the first, and i was suprised to see probably wes brown's performance of the season. I was really impressed with him, he was delivering amazing crosses, defending well, and attacking too. All round good performance by him, as for united, they probably should have been upfront by half time. Chelsea in the first half though were dire, couldnt seem to hold onto the ball, although near the end they started to get better, especially in the second half when their were times united were played off the pitch. Exciting final, good match by both teams, they both gave it their all.
btw, was it only me or was everybody seemed to be falling on the floor at the begining of the match? Sheesh >.>
Edit:
Poor terry...but i couldnt stop laughing to this >.>;
Man U deserved more from the 1st half as well. Tevez and Carrick had good enough chances for a 3 - 0 lead and the Chelsea goal was a combination of luck and Van Der Sar's boots.
