Cristiano Ronaldo apologizes to his colleagues

Monday at the Ciudad Deportiva de Valdebebas came with sun and explanations. The splendid day in the capital of Spain brought the more conciliatory side of Cristiano, who wanted to root out any discomfort or offense to some of his teammates after the statements last Saturday in which he kept in very good place for players like Jesse Lucas Vázquez or Kovacic.

Portuguese, before starting training, in a brief speech inside the locker room, said a few words to his companions insisting on the argument given last Saturday in two Madrid sports dailies. He would not criticize the level of any component template, but the medical staff, and if someone did not understand and they insisted that this was not his intention . 

No one criticized the Luso anything or had any response to his words, so that the controversy ended there. Another thing is what everyone thinks privately when opening the door of your home and remember that of "if everyone were at my level, perhaps we would be first ...".


Next Round Day 31

Laliga confirmed Monday that the classic face at Camp Nou Barcelona and Real Madrid, for Week 31 of La Liga, will be held on Saturday April 2 at 20.30 .

Benzema, out for three weeks

The plague of injuries at Real Madrid has no end. There is not a single week in which a player does not fall into the infirmary and, this time, he has had to Benzema, who against Atletico suffered a torn hamstring in his right leg and will be. at least three weeks off. Around against Roma and Champions League matches against Levante, Celta, Las Palmas and Sevilla lost.

The absence of the French player joins Bale, Marcelo and Pepe, who still continue their recovery processes, and also for Wednesday in the city of Valencia, the Palm and Carvajal , both punished by accumulation of cautions

Football Leaks reveals the clauses to return to Real Madrid Morata

Football Leaks still bringing out the juiciest contracts of world football and has now fallen to Alvaro Morata . The Juventus striker, who on Sunday scored a goal in his team's victory against Inter Milan (2-0), still open the doors of Real Madrid, but now it is known at what price.

According to that website, Morata left Madrid for a total amount of 20 million euros plus VAT, amount to be received over four installments until 2017. He did not have the desired minute and chose to leave the club of his heart, which I could always go back and when several requirements are met.

For that to happen, Morata to return to the Bernabeu, Real Madrid should run a repurchase option between 1 and 15 July 2016 or between 1 and 15 July 2017. If the attacker participated in less than 25 percent of the meetings of Juventus, his repechage cost 20 million. If I played between 25 and 50 percent of the parties, the sum would amount to 25. And if it exceeds 50 percent of the games, to 30 million euros . To do this, the player would have to reach 45 minutes per game.

In addition, there is a clause stating that Juventus can not transfer to any other team Morata until July 2017. Otherwise, there is a fine penalty of 80 million .

Next year there will be changes, including coach

Zidane and Simeone clashed as technicians for the first time. The Argentine is the best coach in the history of Atletico, beating the records of the Grand Radomir Antic, and French began a career in the dugout at the highest level. Today, Atletico reimposed Real Madrid and preparer of Real Madrid, to the disappointment of the president. In the last ten derbies has won five, has emptado four lost in the Champions League, 1-0, last year.

The coaches spoke clearly. Zidane took the team gala and his pupils betrayed him in the field. They did not planned. It has already happened too many times . So he used Borja Mayoral, Luke and Jesse: "It was a physical thing and especially mentally. I spoke one thing with the team and players made ​​another. When the opponent comes from the Champions on Wednesday you have to outrun him and not let him get into the game. When the opponent is second in the standings, you have to do more than he did . And we let him enter the derby. I did not expect this. It 's fucking lose a derby. "

The French wanted to sentence first league, make it clear that in the future there will be changes, and stress that now it lift the squad for the League and to attack with faith the challenge of Champions: "Before the question I anticipate. La Liga it is finished. But now I have dialogued with the wardrobe and we must continue to address the next convinced league games, first against Levante on Wednesday and then think about the Celtic and the Champions League. We have to win every game, not just focus on the European Cup. That said, next year there will be changes, make clear that, even coach, I do not know. But now we must think in taking forward the league and the European Cup. "

Simeone stressed the keys of mourning and the reaction of his men after a few games in which they missed the goal: "We made ​​a game plan. We won well and deserved a goal. I figured this kind of confrontation. We put pride, passion and once again Atletico fans will be proud of their players. "

He praised the return of Griezmann to success: "Scored and we had to do some much more. After the first twenty minutes we began to settle in the field and made ​​a great game."

He praised Augusto: " Augusto Gabi and both lungs were tremendous. Saul heart. Griezmann showed great character. Fernando showed the desire to pursue impossible balls. Juanfran and Filipe Luis were excellent. "

He reflected on this victory, a Chamartin: " We naturally win at the Bernabeu. I can not explain what they feel the players to come and play here."

Real Madrid prepares "June Revolution"

Real Madrid has decided for three months, after the defeats against Barcelona, ​​Sevilla and Villarreal a complete reform of its workforce . Supported disappointment on Saturday against Atletico revolution has confirmed that the club run without remission. It is the verdict that also penalizes poorly planned template, without spare parts for Benzema and Marcelo. The statements of Christian are just the tip of an iceberg melts and needs to be redone .

Florentino Perez, the Board, Jose Angel Sanchez and sports management underline that the team suffers a drop in performance, character and energy that has already cost the post to Carlo Ancelotti in May. Then it believed that the crisis was born with copera and league defeats against Simeone in January and February last year, was a coaching problem. He signed Benitez to straighten this level slump, but his heavy hand, desired by the leaders, ran into a defensive scheme, stiff counterattacks game and the players did not accept. The protest of many headlines players and fans forced the president to dismiss Benitez. He arrived Zidane hoping that this group of figures better surrender. It has not happened. They are comfortable with the coach, but he torean. They do not make the lawn what they say in the locker room. The club has found that the crisis "is a problem of players, not coach." And plans goodbye five or six men to get a set with greater ambition and sacrifice.

Who will be on the transfer list ? If each player makes self - criticism of their performance, you will know whether or not indicated. The internal analysis is straightforward. The facts show that neither Benitez nor Zidane have failed to halt the decline in level of play Real Madrid.

This group of players does not perform as a whole. They are incapable of sacrifice in defense individualities. Lack leadership. It misses one Xabi Alonso to shout, send and play . And basically a lack of madridismo cradle is accused. Both foreign signing makes it difficult to assimilate what it means to wear that shirt. No white milk suckled at the Bernabeu or Valdebebas.

Lewandowski, Hazard and even Pogba and Gea hope that "settlement template change 'names to star in a revolution to which can be added Borja Mayoral Asensio and Vallejo. Zidane has said he would love to have the Polish striker and French midfielder. But this is a second chapter. First you have to realize low. Before getting let out.

It is soon to close the transferable group of players. The future of the Champions League final and will determine the list. Right now, I analyzed the level of play of the establishment, the self - criticism of each player draws James, Jesse, Casemiro and Isco as professionals uncertain future, a compendium which would be added Benzema, who is not doubt footballing, if it were Lewandowski, because the entity has defined the philosophy of "no two figures to fight for the same position." Arbeloa, who just contract, open the list.

Colombia is in the center of the target . After a successful first year, the current campaign is disappointing. Its continuity will depend on your desire to follow their sporting and progression. The problem, however, is not only James. It is the team in general.
