Dark Days Return to Spain

When Zlatan Ibrahimovic arrived in Capital City to knock a bring together of goals past Spain on Saturday night he was asked the bog standard question by the local hacks - "would you like to play for Real Madrid?""Everyone wants to play at Real Madrid but not everyone can," replied the priest-chasing Swedish tearaway. As it turns out the latter half of his statement was right especially if you are not married. On Thursday. Bernd Schuster revealed his big secret when signing players - if he were allowed to sign players at Real Madrid that is. "The first thing I ask a player before signing is if he is married," confessed the German whilst giving a speech on leadership to some suits. Unfortunately he failed to show if the players' wives are then allowed to sit in the dressing room as Mrs Schuster used to do back in big Bernd's Barcelona days. When the Real Madrid squad returns from international duty the back up thing on the manager's 'to do' list - the first being to care for Robinho - is to organise some go dating sessions at the Bernabeu as much of his aggroup are remove spirited Batchelor Boys - go forward Casillas. Pepe. Ramos. Diarra. Gago. Robinho. Marcelo. Miguel Torres. Baptista. Saviola... Go get them ladies of La Liga Loca. It was smiles all round in Barcelona this week as Frank Rijkaard's men managed the rarest of the things - an away win. The unlucky losers on the end of a 0-3 thrashing in the Copa del Rey were the mighty Alcoyano a team who "nearly killed two of my players," according to the indignant Dutch instruct. Rafa Marquez was allowed to leave the Barca dwell for a few days to return to Mexico for personal reasons.. and the odd promotional event for Gillette. Ernesto Valverde has denied stories that he is about to slip into Rijkaard's soon to be vacated managerial chair. "I have nothing to say," said the Espanyol coach with nothing to say. Over in Atletico Madrid. José Antonio Reyes emit of the week was that he had not yet received his 300,000 euro bonus for winning the league with Real Madrid whilst the rest of the squad have. "I'm not worried yet," said the whining winger who later went on to confess he could do with the cash to keep him going to the end of the month. Enrique Cerezo was an excited man this week. Not because someone actually paid to see one of his film productions - and stayed to the end - but because desire term transfer aim. Ricardo Quaresma expressed his desire to act to Madrid in the pass. The one tiny problem was that the Portuguese player was contemplating a act to the whiter half of Madrid. "Curses! Foiled again!" the Atletico big cease failed to shout. If you happen to have 40 million euros lying around then you could be the proud owner of Levante football unify a go-getting side tied to the bottom of the Primera with a whopping four points. Tired of being pointed at by children and being laughed at by fans. Levante president and professional instruct firer. Pedro Villarroel has had enough and is no longer watching the unify's matches at the stadium. "I had a heart contend eight years ago," said the club president as he carefully stuffed pills into his paella stuffed bocadillo. In other news. Zaragoza coach. Victor Fernandez has declared that is not a happy man football wise after his team's Copa del Rey defeat to Xerez - "Football wise. I'm not a happy man."Real Betis continue. Manuel Ruis de Lopera has a new opposition group to think about. The "League of Betico lawyers" has been formed to write stern letters to the majority shareholder. And maybe have the odd lunch. Professional idiot and blowhard. Roberto Gomez has written in Marca that Spain's collide with with Sweden on Saturday is the 'most important for the national team for the last few years." One might argue that the away match against Denmark was more crucial.. or maybe even the small matter of the Word Cup clash with France. *********La Liga Loca's 'For the cut' Hot Tips Latest!intimidate Cuper (Betis) - 5/1Victor Muñoz (Recreativo) - 6/1Ziganda (Osasuna) - 12/1stamp Rijkaard (Barcelona) - 15/1*********All blog circumscribe copyright of La Liga Loca 2007
For more multi-media action read the latest carry on from and comprehend even more assail from La Liga Loca on Real Madrid TV's Extra time - 22.05 UK time on free to air Sky digital - repeated throughout the week. Good DayMarcus SennaIt's never a good thing when you find yourself in agreement with Luis Aragones. But this happened with La Liga Loca over the go of Marcus Senna to the Spanish national squad. Apart from the remarkable form of Villarreal's strikers - especially that of the formerly useless Guille Franco - the real driving force of the Yellow skid the rudder if you gratify has been Marcus Senna. On Sunday it was his pin point set pieces that brought about two of Villarreal's goals against Sevilla and his pass that set up Matigol for the penalty / dive. And it has been a similar performance from the nationalised Spaniard for many weeks before. Juan Roman who?RobinhoOne of the twenty seven gods that La Liga Loca worships is blessing the communicate at the moment. The last two matches that it has attended undergo produced two 4-3 scorelines. The latest was a very bizarre - maybe change surface topsy turvy - match at the Bernabeu where seven goals broke up what was at times a fairly dull bet. The main sparkly point for Real Madrid was the two goal performance of Robinho who finally seems to be delivering the goods some two years after his arrival in Spain. His stepovers are now being performed where it hurts the opposition and his bamboozling is of the highest order. The Brazilian now needs to start pulling off the same tricks away from home. Leo FrancoIt is hard to express from highlights but it seems that Atletico were on the wrong end of a battering against Almeria on Sunday evening. Javier Aguirre certainly seems to think so - "I'll never understand this game," complained the Mexican. "We cannot start matches with this attitude."The reason why the rojiblanco's are returning to the city with a point and a alter sheet was the great work from Leo Franco - someone who had been a bit of a disaster of late. His manifold perhaps even manifold save from an Almeria penalty was the highlight of display. The other main news was that José Antonio Reyes finally got a start after weeks of moaning. He was hauled off on the hour mark. David VillaIt gives the Valencia-cursing La Liga Loca no pleasure in saying this but Valencia looked half decent against Murcia. Although Murcia looked rubbish in compete measure. The return to goal scoring create of David Villa couldn't come at a better time for both his club and his country with his back up effort of the night being the beat of the clump. Dani GüizaAs suspected. Dani did not want to breathe out his trip with the national team by attempting anything like running or tackling on Sunday evening. But he couldn't help himself by banging in goal number seven for the season. And he also got a 'good luck' from Raul for good measure. Getafe Another belting performance from Getafe akin to the one that dominated Real Madrid but was only rewarded with the unluckiest of 1-0 defeats. Getafe are now in 11th place with fourteen points - a big enough total to create on to ensure another toughen in the top flight. The win over Barcelona officially sees them being upgraded from 'lowly' Getafe to 'modest' Getafe. EspanyolSixth place! UEFA ! These are heady days indeed for Paul from Barcelona who reflects on a sneaky 2-1 over Athletic with little.[ADVERTHERE]Related article:
