Cl... Chelsea destroy juve. Absolutely destroy them. Utd get a jammy goal off villareal.and hit on break. The gap between the prem and european clubs is quite large bar 2 or 3 clubs who are really into cl. The gap within the prem is also absolutely massive
Karim benzema.found guilty of taking money to coerce team mate to pay blackmailed over sex tape. This guy is seriously dodgy. How the hell is he not in jail. Suspended 1 year prison sentance and a fine amounting to about a half weeks wages. Was this guy also involved with the whole ribery thing at the time as well?
I know little about this and can't say I'm all that interested, but I did see he claimed that he was just acting as an intermediary to get Valbuena out of the ****. What would Benzema get out of being part of the plot? I can't imagine he needs the dosh. If he is guilty though, a 1 year suspended sentence and a fine of £60k or so is laughable.
Who knows but it seems like one law for the rich in france for sure. the point is how can he get another suspended sentance in france? "Zahia Dehar was at the heart of a scandal that shook the French football team after their disastrous World Cup campaign in 2010. Dehar was 17 and working as an escort at the time she was paid for sex by Karim Benzema and Franck Ribery. The footballers faced up to three years in prison and fines of up to €45,000 each" that was brushed under a carpet too I beleeive they delayed that one and delayed it until it was forgotten and then quietly dropped. on the groudns of how coudl they know she was underage
17 isn't underage in France if it's consensual so perhaps that's why they could get away with it? Not sure about the rules on prostitution - it's not really my area of expertise.
Manchester United qualified for the knock out stage of the champion league. Good job for the interim manager of United Michael Carrick. Manchester United are holding talk with Rudi Garcia to take over from Michael Carrick .Michael Carrick have to do Chelsea job first.
Reports suggest Etihad is a sell out tonight. Couple of points; they've basically been given tickets away and there will still be empty seats because the owners bought the season tickets for them!
Crikey, Leipzig up 4-0 at halftime away in their game. How are Bruges feeling right now, United fans?
from the way i read this the guy is angling to be the director of football there after the interim period. however he is klopp extra lite rather than the full on heavy metal version. I presume some redbull type will come in as his 1st team coach and he will be tasked with changing utd from a bunch of amateurs into a global football powerhouse... or not.
Agree. For once I think they've made a decent choice and put someone in who can lay the groundwork for the future. If Poch does come in the summer then I guess it'll depend on their relationship, but it's a definite step-up from Ole.
Conte has been out after another humiliation for spurs and has said he is finally understanding the **** he has walked into. Says the level is not high as spurs. Well I'd be demanding my pay off up front there cos it looks like they are in quite a difficult debt position. In other leagues clubs like Valencia were crippled for years under debt so unless spurs have a special revenue stream to afford 50mil players I cant see them improving their side without some really young players coming in. My prediction is conte wont last 2 years and will be angling to get out for another job like say psg asap
