Comments Off on FANS TURN ON RONALDO DUE TO POOR FORM


Fans of Real Madrid turned on the club’s superstar due to his record poor form.


The Portuguese football star has not gotten a goal in four games for his side. This makes a record since joining the spanish side in 2009.

Real Madrid manager Zinedine ‘Zizou’ Zidane says he is surprised at the response from the fans over Ronaldo’s form.
“I don’t understand the jeers but at the same time, I was also jeered and it can happen. The public demands a lot from the players and the Bernabeu is special. Cristiano knows that and is not concerned by it,” said Zidane.

Comments Off on 3 matches and 3 wins, Conte talks about Chelsea’s perfect start


Manchester City, Manchester United and Chelsea are all of the Premier League clubs that have enjoyed going through a perfect start of the season as each one of them have claimed 3 victories out of their 3 opening matches.


Chelsea’s Antonio Conte has recently talked about the great start that he and his team has been experiencing and how he has accomplished this task.

“It’s always important to score one more goal than your opponent, but to keep a clean sheet is also important for the confidence of the whole team. When you keep a clean sheet, the whole team works very well, not only the defenders. When we concede a goal, all of the team concedes a goal.

‘’I want to work with my players to improve them and to put them in the best condition. It’s important to keep the last season in our mind, when there is a difficult situation it is important to look behind to find new strength to go forward. We have started the season in the right way.’’ Chelsea’s Antonio Conte said.

Even though Antonio Conte’s debut season as the head coach of Chelsea has kicked off in a sublime form, the Italian coach does not want to get carried away and still wants to remain focused on the day by day instead of longer point of view.Read More »

Comments Off on Paulo An Ambassador For Chelsea Club


Among the many footballers who ended their career at their heights is Paulo Ferreira.


He had played nine seasons with the Chelsea club and helped the club to win three trophies in the Premier League during his tenure. He ended his professional career in football in 2012-13. Fans of the club still hold him close to their hearts. He was a dedicated member of the club and did not complain even if he was not given opportunities to play as the first team always. The genuine love that he portrayed for the club is hard to find these days among the modern professional players.

It quite befitted the honor that he received in 2014 to be an ambassador for the club. He took up the role of helping out at the Digicel Kick-start Academy that offers training grounds for young players in the Caribbean. He is now on the verge of becoming a fully fledged coach as he serves the role of an assistant technical coach in the youth development program of Chelsea.

If you have not heard or seen him up close, you would not know that he is a soft spoken, pleasant man who was known as a defender in the Chelsea team. Many people often wonder what made him stick to the Blues for nearly a decade, whereas people have moved and changed teams so often.

He had been part of the UEFA Champions League in 2004 after which he followed teaming mates like Ricardo Carvalho and Jose Mourinho to join the Chelsea club. At that time the deal that was struck was about twenty million Euros. Even if he did fall out of favor at times, he remained a loyal servant of the club and gave his all for the defense that he played. The year the contract was not renewed with him was the year he decided to stop playing as well. However, he has been given due honor as ambassador of the club now.

Comments Off on Paulo Ferreira reveals why he stayed for so long at Chelsea


Paulo Ferreira was a member of the Porto team that won the Champions League in 2004 and ultimately makes the move to Chelsea in 2004.

He was one of the first players that Jose Mourinho signed when he took charge of Chelsea.


The Portuguese defender quickly established himself as an important member of the team even if he was not always sure of starting a game. Jose Mourinho described him as the type of player that will never win a man-of-the-match award but rather as a consistent and hardworking player. It is this quality that will allow him to stay for more than 9 years at Stamford Bridge.

He left Chelsea in 2013 after the London Club decided that his contract will not be renewed. But by then, Paulo Ferreira did not have much playing time and when asked why he decided to stay even if he did not play he replied that he was happy to help. He said that he is someone that never gives up and that he remained at Chelsea so as to compete with the other defenders.Read More »
