After Pellegrini told Sneijder he had a future at the club, Real still tried to sell him to Inter. Sneijder doesn't want to leave Madrid and on top of that Inter doesn't want to pay Sneijder what he wants.

Now Valdano has decided (against the Pellegrini's wish) that Sneijder has to train with the reserves from now on. Real wants to force him to join Inter (for 16.5m euro).

A similar story was going on with Huntelaar (and Stuttgart) and is still going on with Van der Vaart. VdV has been told he's got no future, but Real is not willing to sell him to the club he's got an agreement with.

5-0 Madrid win over Dortmund. Arjen Robben man of the match from all reports. Madrid look the good for the La Liga and Champions League title. Team is starting to gel nicely now

i dont understand the reason in selling robben, sneijder and soon to be vdv?

unless they are planning to bring in silva or something before tuesday, all the players on the bench will be centre mids, there are no wingers, or players who can play behind the strikers?

diarra, the pirate, gago, higuain, rvn as back up doesnt give you width?

if ronaldo and/or kaka get injured id like to see what formation pellegrini installs :S

Real Madrid 3-2 Coruna last night , Ronaldo scored from penalty and Diarra scored the winner

Still the defence is leaky at the back, but on the attacking front, look strong

i watched the first half and although it wasnt a great peformance, you could see how dangerous ronaldo, kaka, raul and benzema were going foward.

the team chemistry will take time to build, ramos and pepe will come into the starting line up.

just still think a winger is needed, if ronaldo and/or kaka go down the starting 11 will be worse then last season

big game against Sevilla tonight. No Ronaldo for madrid, expect it to be a tough game. Sevilla coming from a 4-1 win mid-week against Rangers.

As if the Airblower isn't even playing. What a hack.

Xabi Alonso to dominate the midfield, setting up Kaka for the first goal and Benzema for the second in a 2-0 win to Madrid.
