რეალი-ბარსელონა : პრიმერა დივიზიონი
ელ კლასიკო
ისვე "ელ კლასიკო”... ამჯერად, მადრიდის "რეალი” და კატალონიის "ბარსელონა” ერთმანეთს ესპანეთის პრიმერა დივიზიონის 26-ე ტურის მატჩში დაუპირისპირდებიან. 
 უკანასკნელ პერიოდში, ეს გუნდები ერთმანეთს იმდენჯერ შეხვდნენ, რომ ყველაზე მნიშვნელოვან მადრიდულ-კატალონიურ დაპირისპირებას, გარკვეულწილად, ძველებური ხიბლიც კი დაეკარგა. მიუხედავად ამისა, "რეალისა” და "ბარსელონას” მატჩი ყოველთვის ახერხებს სხვა საფეხბურთო (და არა მარტო) მოვლენების გადაფარვას.
 უკანასკნელი "ელ კლასიკოებისგან” განსხვავებით, შაბათს გასამართი მატჩი ორი რამით იქნება გამორჩეული: უპირველესად, შეხვედრა ესპანეთის დროით 16:00-ზე დაიწყება (ჩვენი დროით 19:00), რაც "ელ კლასიკოსთვის” ნამდვილად უჩვეულოა. და მეორე: პრიმერა დივიზიონის სატურნირო ცხრილში, გუნდებს შორის სხვაობა 16 ქულაა, რაც იმას ნიშნავს, რომ ამ თვალსაზრისით, ეს შეხვ ...

Napoli - Juventus preview
serie AJuventus head coach Antonio Conte believes the best team will emerge victorious from a hotly anticipated meeting with Napoli which could well determine the destination of the Serie A title.

Walter Mazzarri's Azzurri quickly proved to be the side most likely to challenge reigning Italian champions Juve this year, but whenever the Bianconeri have stumbled Napoli have followed suit.

Victory at the San Paolo would see Napoli halve the six-point gap on first place and set up a tense title run-in, but defeat to the visitors could effectively end their pursuit at an early stage.

The two clubs were battling in Serie B only six years ago and Conte commended Napoli for developing to the point they could feasibly win a first Scudetto since reforming in 2004.

Valverde ready for derby
la ligaValencia coach Ernesto Valverde is steeling himself for a typically emotional derby encounter against Levante as Los Che aim to further boost their Champions League qualification prospects.

They go into the match at the Mestalla in fifth, which as it stands would be good enough to qualify for the 2013-14 Champions League owing to Malaga's ineligibility on financial grounds.

Standing in their way are city rivals Levante, who come into the game in unconvincing form having lost three and drawn one of their last four games and sit 10th in the Primera Division.

However, Valverde is putting little store in statistics as he told his club's official website: "The game will be a difficult one, because it is a derby. One has to bear in mind the atmosphere. ... Read more »

Getafe boosted ahead of Zaragoza clash
la ligaWith Primera Division survival within their sights, Getafe's players have been given an added incentive for beating struggling Real Zaragoza on Friday night - three days off work.

Getafe head into the match sitting in ninth spot in the standings on 35 points, 10 more than fourth-bottom Zaragoza and 12 clear of the drop zone.

It is looking good for the Madrid-based outfit to earn a 10th successive season in the top flight, but coach Luis Garcia knows they are not quite safe yet with Villarreal having gone down with 41 points last year and Deportivo La Coruna with 43 the previous season.

That is one of the reasons why Garcia has offered an extra reward to his players if they can follow up last week's 3-1 win at Real Mallorca with another three ... Read more »

Plan A could be the one for Barcelona
barcelona messiChampions Matchday editor Paul Simpson ponders FC Barcelona's predicament and says they can draw inspiration from Otto Rehhagel's UEFA EURO 2004-winning Greece.

It is all too easy to blame Tito Vilanova and Jordi Roura for FC Barcelona's 2-0 round of 16 defeat by AC Milan last week. Many observers have done just that, criticising Barça's coach and his assistant for not developing a plan B. One pundit who has not joined this chorus, however, is Otto Rehhagel.

The German oversaw one of the most unexpected triumphs in international football when he steered Greece to glory at UEFA EURO 2004. He did so without a plan B. He had a plan A – a 4-5-1 formation with a sweeper that relied on man-to-man marking and dominating games by controlling space, rather than the bal ... Read more »

West Ham assistant Neil McDonald told reporters Nolan had experienced issues with his toe all season.
"He's had problems in the past with it, all season really," McDonald said. 

"He has had problems with his foot all season and he has been playing through the pain barrier. It's probably worse than it has been with him having the kick right on it."

With just one win in their last seven league games, West Ham are now just six points ... Read more »

Laudrup coy on Swansea future
laundrup
Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup remains non-committal over how long he will remain at the club.
The Dane has enjoyed a fantastic debut season since taking over at Liberty Stadium, leading the side into the top half of the table and securing their first-ever major silverware after beating Braford City in the League Cup final.

This success has reportedly caught the attention of major European clubs but Laudrup is refusing to be drawn on such speculation.

The former Mallorca boss told reporters: "I've said it already a couple of times - my intention is to stay here next year but, again, who knows about the future?

"One thing is our intention and my intention is that. Do you know your future next year? You are 100 pe ... Read more »

El Shaarawy signs Milan extension
El Shaarawy
AC Milan striker Stephan El Shaarawy has extended his contract at the club until June 2018.

The 20-year-old has been the stand-out player for the Rossoneri this season, notching 18 goals and four assists in all competitions.

His electric form saw him linked with the likes of Manchester United and Manchester City, but Milan have now confirmed the re-signing.
El Shaarawy joined the San Siro side in the middle of 2011 from fellow Serie A outfit Genoa.

He has been crucial to Milan's efforts to rebuild the squad following wholesale changes in close season, helping propel the side back into contention for a top-three finish.

"ჩემი პრიორიტეტი, "იუვენტუსში” დარჩენაა. თუმცა, არც იმას გამოვრიცხავ, მომავალში, ახალი გამოწვევა მივიღო და სხვა კლუბში გადავიდე სათამაშოდ. ბუნდესლიგა? გერმანული ფეხბურთი ძალიან მიყვარს. მათ შესანიშნავი სტადიონები აქვთ და უმეტეს შემთხვევაში, ტრიბუნები მთლიანად ივსება. ასევე, ძალიან მომწონს გერმანელი ფანები. მათი გუნდი ოთხბურთიანი სხვაობითაც რომ მარცხდებოდეს, სტადიონს მაინც არ დატოვებენ. პირადად მე, ბუნდესლიგა პრემიერ ლიგას მირჩევნია”, – აცხადებს მარკიზიო, რომელსაც "ბიანკონერისთან” კონტრაქტი 2016 წელს ეწურება.

Sanchez would be a good fit for Juve
sanchez
Kwadwo Asamoah believes Barcelona forward Alexis Sanchez would be a good signing for Juventus.
The Chile international has struggled for consistency since joining the Catalans from Udinese in 2011, and was heavily linked with a move to Juve in the winter transfer window.

Juve are allegedly still interested in the 24-year-old, and Asamoah said he would welcome his former Udinese team-mate with open arms should he move to the reigning Serie A champions.

"Alexis is a player with great qualities. He is incredibly quick," Asamoah told Corriere dello Sport.

"He could give us a helping hand if he were to make the move to Juventus."

Sanchez has a contract with Barcelona until June 2016.

Antic still believes in Barca
barca
Former Barcelona coach Radomir Antic believes the club can overturn their 2-0 first-leg defeat to AC Milan and progress in the Champions League.
Barca were beaten at San Siro earlier this month, and after a 3-1 Copa del Rey loss to Real Madrid on Tuesday, many believe European elimination could well be on the cards.
Antic, however, insisted the tie remains in the balance.

"Barcelona have the quality to turn things around against Milan," the Serbian told La Xarxa Radio.

"It is much easier to attack and charge forward when you're 2-0 down than when it's only 1-0 in my opinion. You have nothing to lose when you're 2-0 down and must attack.

"The important thing is that Barcelona believe in themselves and are c ... Read more »

Marchisio keen on German football
marchisio
Claudio Marchisio says he would prefer to play in the Bundesliga over the Premier League if he was to leave Juventus in the future.
The Italy international has been linked with a move to Bayern Munich on more than one occasion in recent years, and while committed to Juve, he has left the door open for one last European adventure.
"My priority is to stay at Juventus for the remainder of my career, but I am open to trying a new experience abroad in the future," Marchisio told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"The Bundesliga? I really love German football. Their modern stadiums and facilities are great. Games are almost always sold out. 

"And I like the attitude of the German fans. They do not even leave the stadium when their team ... Read more »

Overmars open to Arsenal return
arsenal
Former Arsenal star Marc Overmars says there is a distinct possibility he could take on a role with the club in the future.
The 39-year-old scored 41 goals in 142 appearances for the Gunners during a three-year spell which saw him lift the Premier League and FA Cup prior to a 25 million-pound move to Barcelona.

And the Dutchman, who currently serves as Ajax's technical director, said he would be open to returning to the English club, but ruled out going into management.

"When you get older as a player, you work out what your qualities are for the future. I was quite fast to realise being a manager was not my job," he told Standard Sport.

"The way I work with Ajax, I do the transfers, the contracts and organise the scou ... Read more »
