Sports / Why Ronaldo Will Be Leaving Real Madrid by deanxy: 8:08am On Jul 11, 2018 |
Real Madrid and Juventus have agreed a £105m fee for the transfer Last Updated: 10/07/18 11:13pm Cristiano Ronaldo is on his way out of Real Madrid What's behind Cristiano Ronaldo's move to Juventus? And what does it all mean for Real Madrid? The Portuguese superstar is on the way to Juventus in a £105m move, with both the Turin club and Real Madrid confirming they have agreed a deal for his transfer. Here, we answer the key questions surrounding the move with Sky Sports' Spanish football expert Guillem Balague. Why does Ronaldo want to leave? Ultimately, it comes down to him not feeling wanted enough. Ronaldo has spent nine glittering seasons with Madrid and lifted his fourth Champions League trophy in five years just a few weeks ago, but he has a complicated relationship with club president Florentino Perez. "It's a personal issue," Balague told Sky Sports in Friday's episode of the Transfer Talk podcast. "Juventus are happy to pay him €30m net per year. He would earn the same if he signed a new contract at Real Madrid, but he feels he's not wanted. "The background is that a year ago, Perez said he would increase Ronaldo's wages. Cristiano was waiting for an offer, and meanwhile, Lionel Messi got a new contract worth €41m net per year, Neymar is earning €35m net per year, and he is only earning €21m net per year. The background is that a year ago, Perez said he would increase Ronaldo's wages. Cristiano was waiting for an offer, and meanwhile, Lionel Messi got a new contract worth €41m net per year, Neymar is earning €35m net per year, and he is only earning €21m net per year. "He also feels there is a lot of talk about Neymar. When Cristiano won the Ballon d'Or, Perez said that if Neymar wanted to win the Ballon d'Or he needed to move to Real Madrid. Cristiano didn't like that, but when he threatened them with leaving, he felt Real Madrid didn't do enough to try and keep him. "It's all very confusing. He wants to leave but at the same time he wants to be stopped. Anyway, Real Madrid are happy to let him go, but they want him to say publicly that he's leaving, so the finger of blame goes to him and they can give him a spectacular send-off." How can Juventus afford him? Balague estimates the total cost of the transfer, including all fees and wages over the course of the proposed four-year contract, would total upwards of €400m euros. Quite clearly, financial fair play will play a part here, which means they will have to be very careful how they do this, but Real Madrid believe Juventus have sorted that out. "I believe in the last 48 hours [amid the Ronaldo speculation], the value of Juventus in the stock market has increased 20 per cent. That explains one reason why they want him." Juventus will, however, need to sell players to balance the books. One player who has already been linked with an exit is Gonzalo Higuain, who is reportedly a target for Chelsea. Were there any other suitors? Jorge Mendes, Ronaldo's agent, also sounded out Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester United about the possibility of signing him, according to Balague, but both clubs said they were not interested, leaving Juventus with a clear run at him. Could Ronaldo keep winning at Juventus? Ronaldo would be confident of adding to his vast trophy collection at Juventus. The Old Lady are totally dominant in Italian football having won seven consecutive Serie A titles and four consecutive league and cup doubles. They are a European force, too. Juventus have not won the Champions League since the 1995/96 season, but they have reached two finals in the last five years. With Ronaldo on their side instead of standing in their way, they would fancy their chances of going one better. What next for Madrid? After 450 goals in 438 appearances - including 44 in 44 last season - Ronaldo's departure would leave a gaping hole at Real Madrid. So how do they plan to replace him? "Florentino is not stupid, so if he's letting Cristiano go it's because something is happening," said But while Real Madrid are sure to flex their financial muscles as Ronaldo departs, acquiring a new Galactico will not be easy. "The new Real Madrid manager Julen Lopetegui was told that there were going to be five new players, but I don't see a Galactico available," says Balague. "The plan that was designed in the last few months was that Real Madrid's attack would be Neymar, Marco Asensio and Cristiano, but PSG are saying there is no way they will let Neymar go. We will see now, with more money and more pressure involved, how that pans out, but PSG have said there is absolutely no way Neymar is leaving." Real Madrid have also been linked with Neymar's PSG team-mate Kylian Mbappe, with Eden Hazard another reported target, but Balague says Harry Kane and Robert Lewandowski could prove to be out of their reach. "I know Harry Kane will be linked to Real Madrid but I still believe he's going to stay at Spurs with his new contract and so on," said Balague. "Lewandowski is desperately trying to leave Bayern Munich but they don't want to let him go. So it's not as easy as it may sound for Real Madrid." What would it mean for Gareth Bale? "The idea was to sell Bale but now everything changes," said Balague. "He could get transformed into a newly-born Galactico. "Ronaldo is one of the best players in history and Bale hasn't got to that level yet, but what will happen is that without Ronaldo, Bale will grow. I believe Real Madrid think the same." Bale struggled for playing time under Zinedine Zidane, but his departure is another potential boost to the Welshman. "From the moment Zidane went, there was a sigh of relief from Bale's side, so much so that the conversations that were going to take place around now have been delayed. "Now they will take place after Bale has met Lopetegui and started pre-season. At that point it will be clearer what Real Madrid are going to look like, but straight away you've got Bale and Asensio, two people who can give so much more and make them competitive. "Ronaldo was the guy who took things to another level when things got tough, so whoever else comes in will have to fill that gap."

Sports / Rohr Ponders Moses’ Decision As Eagles Plan For Argentina Test by deanxy: 8:12am On Jun 24, 2018 |
What do you do with one of your brightest wards when he starts misbehaving? Do you indulge him or cast him aside? That is the question Super Eagles’ Manager, Gernot Rohr, has to answer about Victor Moses before Nigeria enters its make or mar clash against Argentina on Tuesday. Nigeria must get at least a draw in the clash with Argentina and hopes that Croatia keeps to form by beating Iceland in the group’s decisive encounters on Tuesday. The matches are scheduled to be played concurrently with the results determining, which country joins leader, Croatia in the second round. On Friday in Volgograd, a city renowned for Russia’s gallant battle with Germany that ultimately tipped the Second World War in favour of the allies, Nigeria rose from the ashes of its opening game defeat to beat Iceland in its second game of the competition. Many heroics events have happened in the beautiful city formerly called Stalingrad and Nigeria’s victory added the country’s name to the city’s folklore and moved it closer to the second round of the on-going FIFA World Cup. And now it must get a good result in Tuesday’s game against Argentina. However, Rohr is worried by the attitude of one of his star players, who has failed to play the pivotal role the coach expected of him in this championship. In the first game against Croatia, Moses tried several times without success to impress on the fans that he is a super star that deserved preferential treatment from everybody, including the referee. He dived in attempts to win free kicks when it would have paid Nigeria better if he stayed on his feet and worked to make or score goals, which the country needed in its 0-2 loss to Croatia. Before the second game on Friday, the technical crew thought the Super Eagles would gain in positive play if the team changed its tactics to a 3-5-2 formation with Moses playing as wingback, while skipper John Mikel Obi reverted to the defensive midfield position. But Moses apparently did not like the decision that restricted him from “expressing his talent.” When asked the Moses’ question during the post match press conference on Friday, Rohr explained that he has been working on his players to make them understand the need to sacrifice for the general good of the team. “We called the players and told them why we must change our tactics. I spoke with Mikel and Moses to let them know the need for them to change positions. “Moses plays as a wingback for Chelsea and I know he can do the job very well. We will continue to seek the players’ cooperation,” he said. Rohr told the press that he was satisfied with Moses’ output during the game against Iceland, but his show of exasperation many times when the Chelsea walked instead of tracking back after misplacing a pass or losing the ball spoke volumes of his feelings. Many of the Super Eagles fans inside the Volgograd Arena openly shouted on Rohr to replace Moses when he showed no sign of helping Nigeria’s cause in the first half of the game. The Guardian learnt that Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) President, Amaju Pinnick and many other dignitaries had to go to the dressing room to specifically impress on Moses the enormity of the task before the country and the expectations of him from his compatriots. Another issue worrying the coaches is the slow start to matches by the team, which escaped unscathed in the first half of the match against Iceland simply because the Scandinavians were wasteful in front of goal. The pattern actually started manifesting during the preparatory games for the World Cup and Nigeria was punished for it by England and Czech Republic. “We will continue working on the team’s concentration and psychology of the players to get where we want. “Don’t forget that this is a young team with many players that have never been involved at this level of competition.

Family / Should I Forgive Her Or Not by deanxy: 1:05am On Jun 18, 2018 |
I have been dating this girl for a while now, probably, 3 to 4 yrs and There are plans of taking it to the next level(marriage). Sometimes last month,i discovered I couldn't view my girls profile on watsap, so I suspected something went wrong and I decided to use my friends phone. I then discovered that she uploaded on her status pictures of her and a guy( she told me is her ex), describing him as her bestie. This really pissed me off and I didn't made mention of it to her. I just pretended nothing happened. I later spoke to my cousin (who is her best friend and who I actually got to know my girl through her) and she said my girl did so because she wanted to piss the guys girlfriend who thought they are still going out together. Now, I don't know what to believe and what to do. |
