Sports › Messi Is The Best Player In The World- Blatter by doublezero7(op): 5:55pm On Jan 27, 2013
The Argentine saw off competition from Cristiano Ronaldo
and Andres Iniesta to claim the award, and the Swiss
official feels that there should be consolation prizes.
“Messi is currently the best player, therefore we are
very proud that the voters have made such a clear
decision," he told Fifa.com.
"As we invite the three remaining candidates, perhaps we
should give three medals to avoid two of them going home
empty-handed. This is something we should think about
for the future."
Fifa merged their World Player of the Year award with
France Football's Ballon d'Or in 2010, and Messi has won all
three editions of the newly-formed accolade.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › 'casillas Is The Heart & Soul Of Real Madrid' - Xavi by doublezero7(op): 5:47pm On Jan 27, 2013
The Spain captain broke a bone in his thumb during the
Copa del Rey match with Valencia and is expected to be
out for six-to-eight weeks of the knock, which the 33-
year-old feels could prove costly to the champions.
"It's one more problem for them, he is the heart and soul
of Real Madrid and their captain. He's a huge loss for
Madrid and for Spain,” he told reporters.
The Blaugrana midfielder also spoke of his shock at Jose
Mourinho's decision to drop Casillas for the Liga matches
against Malaga and Real Sociedad either side of the winter
break.
"I speak with him a lot, we send each other messages. I
sent him my best wishes as soon as he was left out of
the Madrid team; I was taken by surprise by that.
"It was a shock to me that a player who has spent so
many years as the No.1 and who was always in the team
could suddenly be left out, but that's their problem.
“It's a complicated situation, and it's not for me to give my
opinion on. I read the news and I can see that the club is
not in the best shape at an institutional level.
"But they will be very difficult opponents in the [Copa del
Rey] semi-finals and it will be very for us to beat them."

Sports › Mourinho: I Will Never Coach In Germany by doublezero7(op): 5:00pm On Jan 27, 2013
The Real Madrid boss refused to pass opinion on
Pep Guardiola's decision to join Bayern Munich in
the summer, but insisted that the Bundesliga
does not appeal to him.
Jose Mourinho has claimed that he has no intention of
coaching a Bundesliga club after being quizzed on Pep
Guardiola's recent appointment as Bayern Munich boss.
The 42-year-old Spaniard was previously embroiled in an
intense rivalry with the Portuguese while in charge of
Barcelona between 2008 and 2012, but will end his
sabbatical in the summer when he succeeds Jupp
Heynckes.
But in an interview with Rai Sport, the Real Madrid boss
insisted that Guardiola's switch to Germany does not
concern him, and neither does he intend to ever follow in
his former opponent's footsteps.
"I have no comment to make, everyone is entitled to their
choice," said Mourinho.
"Has he deliberately chosen a league I am not involved in? I
don't know. What is certain is that I will not manage in
Germany.
"I have nothing to say on the matter, it is all the same to
me."

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Real Madrid 4-0 Getafe: Ronaldo Scores Second Half Hat-trick by doublezero7(op): 4:53pm On Jan 27, 2013
The Portugal international inspired his side to a
comfortable victory with a clinical triple in the
second period of this derby clash, after the first
half had ended goalless.
Cristiano Ronaldo continued his scintillating form with a
well-taken hat-trick that takes his tally in the league this
season to 21, after Sergio Ramos had opened the
goalscoring for the home side.
Jose Mourinho appeared to have one eye on the Copa del
Rey semi-final against Barcelona this coming Wednesday as
he rested players for this game, and it was only after
Sami Khedira was introduced at half-time that los
Merengues clicked.
Ronaldo looked the most dangerous player on the pitch in
the opening half an hour, and twice came close to scoring
only to be thwarted by Getafe's goalkeeper Miguel Moya.
Madrid continued to dominate possession as the first half
wore on but did look susceptible on the break, as Diego
Castro and the former Castilla player Pablo Sarabia
stretched los Blancos' experienced back-line on more than
one occasion.
Mourinho decided to change things at the interval after
Madrid failed to score in the first half, as Khedira came on
for Raul Albiol which resulted in Essien dropping into right-
back and Ramos moving inside to centre-back.
The switch in personnel seemed to do the trick for the
home side, as they took the lead in the 53rd minute
through Ramos. The Spain international bundled home a
corner after Moya failed to claim the cross, with the
Getafe goalkeeper undoing some brilliant work moments
before when he made a fabulous double-stop from Khedira
and Angel Di Maria.
Madrid, looking a completely different side following the
break, and went 2-0 up thanks to a blistering
counterattack that was clinically finished by Ronaldo. The
former Manchester United man hammered a shot low
under Moya and into the bottom-right corner of the net
having sprinted 70 yards to support Ozil and receive the
ball on the edge of the Getafe box.
Within three minutes of that goal Ronaldo added a third.
The Portuguese attacker's 20th league goal of the
season came in the form of a close-range header after Di Maria had dinked an inviting cross to the back post which pulled Moya out of position.
In the 72nd minute Ronaldo completed his hat-trick from
the penalty spot to make it 4-0 to Madrid, after Luka
Modric had been fouled in the area by Alberto Lopo.
Madrid are now unbeaten in 22 matches at home in the
league, but still trail Barcelona this season by 12 points.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Wenger 'not Close' On Any New Signings For Arsenal by doublezero7(op): 4:40pm On Jan 27, 2013
The Frenchman insists he's no nearer to bringing
any new faces in at The Emirates as Thursday's
transfer deadline day looms, with Theo Walcott's
new contract the only done deal.
Arsene Wenger has conceded that he isn't close to
bringing any new players to Arsenal in the January
transfer window, claiming that the required calibre of
player is hard to come by at this point in a season.
A three-year contract extension for Theo Walcott is the
only business that has taken place in the Gunners'
boardroom, with fans frustrated at a lack of transfers
under Wenger in recent times, but the Frenchman insists
he will not bring in players for the sake of it.
"You do not find them in the street, strikers who can play
for us. We have strength in our team. It is difficult in
January," he told reporters.
"Realistically, I cannot tell you I will sign anyone tomorrow,
or Tuesday, as we are not close to doing it."
Those words are likely to cause unrest amongst the
Gunners' faithful after they saw their team barely scrape
through against Brighton in the FA Cup on Saturday. A
late deflected Walcott effort was enough to see Arsenal
through to round five, but alarm bells will certainly be
ringing.
Arsenal sit in sixth position in the Premier League, four
points adrift of a Champions League spot, and have lacked
the necessary firepower up front at times this season.
They also face a stern test against Bayern Munich in the
last 16 of the Champions League in February, but Wenger
as ever is keeping his cards close to his chest about any
possible transfer deals being wrapped up in the coming
days.
