The Italian Ronaldo?

So this is Juventus (on loan at Serie B’s A.S. Bari) striker Davide Lanzafame, who’s been getting a little press recently for his Ronaldo-esque style.
“He is explosive, he sniffs the goal, and imposes his speed outside the area. If he improves and learns he can become like Cristiano Ronaldo.” - Bari boss Antonio Conte
“We can say that David Lanzafame resembles Cristiano Ronaldo, he has explosive power in his legs, speed on the ground, a sense of goal.” - Italy Under 21 coach Pierluigi Casiraghi
blah blah blah I could care less, but I did have a terrifying realization:

Real Madrid Transfer Action, Now With Sexy Cars
By: Ale | 2 Comments
Madrid based/biased sports daily Marca continued ‘Operación Cristiano‘ today with a few more details of the contract Cristiano Ronaldo will be offered should he leave Manchester.
9.5 million a year, plus 50% of the income from his image rights in Spain, while keeping 100% from image rights outside of the country. This would make him the highest paid footballer ever, based solely on salary.
Marca’s also going crazy over their ‘exclusive’ photos of a $100,000 Audi R8 in a parking lot with a handwritten note reading ‘Deliver to Cristiano Ronaldo’ on the dash. Considering Marca is about as credible as the Enquirer, some employee probably just scribbled on a post it note and tossed it in there and took a few pictures.
And lastly of course, there was the usual daily “I want to stay at Old Trafford / I dream of playing for Real Madrid” speeches from Ronaldo, but that should just go without saying by now…

Lily Allen Likes The Sauce, Hates Ronaldo
By: Ale | 4 Comments
UK “singer” Lily Allen and her boobs decided to share her drunken ramblings thoughts on the Champions’ League final while in Cannes yesterday for a screening of her father’s film “There Are Dark Forces.”
Via her Myspace blog:
Oh yeah , the football …………… How amazing was that ? I’ve never seen anything like it , i watched it down here in Henley with Mark and Barry , Mark supports Chelsea and Barry didn’t really care , i drank lots of rose and kept changing my mind about who I wanted to win . I felt bad for Terry and Lampard, I guess the right team won but i would have loved it if United had lost cause it would have been Ronaldo’s fault and I hate Ronaldo , well I don’t hate him , but after the whole winking incident I don’t like him so much .
Whatever Lily. You probably just tried to get with him and got shot down.
Stick to being naked 24/7 and falling off yachts drunk.
Slow day.

Immediatly following his Champions’ League final victory with United, The Best Player in the World added some more fuel to the fire that is the Real Madrid transfer saga.
“I don’t promise nothing, I don’t promise nothing to my mum, I don’t promise nothing to the supporters,” he said. “I want to stay, but the future … no one knows. I want to stay. We are going to see in the next two weeks, I don’t say I make a decision.“
The Spanish media is eating all of this up of course, with Marca running the headline “I say ‘yes I do,’ Manchester United says ‘no you don’t'” over a picture of Ronaldo.
Just to put his 2 cents in, Ramon Calderon told Punto Radio “Players play where they want. If a player decides to leave, he can’t be stopped. Slavery was abolished some time ago.”
Personally I’d love to see him play in Spain (Hala Madrid), and his constant dodging of the question makes me think he’ll leave Old Trafford more and more every day. Plus, we’d all get to see alot more of Red Jesus vs The Messiah.
How do you think all of this this will play out? Will he want to continue his success with United or go abroad in search of a new challenge?

“I scored two times against Arsenal, I scored against Liverpool. I score against every team in England. I am very happy with my season. I scored 31 League goals. I don’t need to show anything to anyone. I win every award. I need to prove nothing.”So sayeth Red Jesus.
It must be getting a little hard for the haters to hate given everything he’s accomplished this season…
- 2nd consecutive Premier League title
- 2nd consecutive PFA Players’ Player of the Year
- 2nd consecutive PFA Fans’ Player of the Year
- 3rd consecutive PFA Premier League Team of the Year
- 2nd consecutive Barclay’s Player of the Year
- 2nd consecutive Football Writer’s Association Player of the Year
- Barclay’s Golden Boot
- Barclay’s Merit Award
- European Golden Boot
Throw in all the Manchester United accolades and the possibility of Champions’ League and Euro victories (can you say Ballon d’Or?) and I’d say it’s been a pretty good season.
Speaking of Wednesday, Chelsea’s Ricardo Carvalho had the following words of wisdom:
“We have to try to not give him too much space. It is difficult to stop him but if you focus and work with your team-mate, it will be easy.“
REALLY!?
Somewhere Avram Grant is looking more sullen then usual thanks to Carvalho giving up Chelsea’s big strategy before the game but whatever. I’m surprised no one else tried this tactic this year.
More later.
Ciao.
