Chelsea, Fiorentina, Madrid - all very average teams.

Each of them still way better than Arsenal will ever be.

Anyways Huntelaar was unveiled yesterday (Thursday) and he will be wearing the number 19 shirt, previously worn by Julio Baptista and Jose Antonio Reyes.

"Thank you to Mr Di Stefano and the president. I am very proud to play for Real Madrid. Many goals. Thank you to everybody," Huntelaar stated.

Calderón then explained that the club had planned to secure the services of the 25-year-old goalscorer in the summer, but the injury to Ruud van Nistelrooy meant that they had to bring forward that idea.

Huntelaar is the sixth Dutch player in the Madrid squad with Van Nistelrooy, Wesley Sneijder, Rafael Van der Vaart, Arjen Robben and Royston Drenthe all with the club alreday.

"Some of the players I already know from Ajax. It's going to be easier to adapt here than at a club where I don't know anyone," the striker added in English.

"Real Madrid is the biggest team in the world. I'll be doing all I can to help us catch up."

What happens when RVN and Higuain return? We have to sell Saviola in the summer now.

An hattrick by Hilarious Henry makes the day for Barca.
Valencia was crushed to dump by his incredible attacking and goal scoring skills.
GO HENRY!!!

Anything to get the alliteration in, eh?

 

[Will_NA]

Hunky, heroic, handsome - coulda used anyone of them.

 

[naresh091]

Thanks for those suggestions.
I meant him hilarious to the opposition.

Well,None of them are relevant either (except for hunky, a bit) to Henry Will.

 

[Will_NA]

I am pretty sure Valencia weren't laughing yesterday

 

[naresh091]

Its Okay mate.Lets leave this behind.
I'll accept I used the wrong word for an alliteration.

 

[Will_NA]

I'm not having a go at you.

 

[m_vaughan]

All I can say is stupid Valencia. Did not see the game, so wont comment but has Henry finally woken up in La Liga?? Or is it once again just another flash in the pan?

 

[naresh091]

I wish Henry is back in form.

 

[m_vaughan]

Cannavaro, Robben and Higuain are back in the squad which is a relief.

 

[m_vaughan]

Defence continues to be shocking. Was really disappointed after the first half, but we really played well in the second, to make the game into a cracker.

I do not know why people were booing Gago, because he worked his *** last night, and it was great to see him score.

I know nine points is a lot, but am not going to concede the title so early, especially since Barca have not yet gone through a blip themselves and we have both the Clasicos to play.

 

[Will_NA]

Madrid lost again Wow, they're shite.

 

[King Pietersen]

Nah they're not Will. They're still favourites for the title because they've won it in the past with a shite defence (Y).
