Ronaldinho adds another title to prove Scolari wrong

 

He may not be the player of yesteryear, and that's undoubtedly a view shared by Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari, but Ronaldinho continues to tot up the titles to prove his doubters wrong.

Atletico Mineiro claimed Copa Libertadores glory on Thursday as they turned around a 2-0 first-leg deficit against Olimpia to secure a 4-3 penalty triumph.

But will Ronaldinho's Libertadores heroics nudge him into contention for World Cup 2014?

The former Barcelona playmaker hasn't played for his country since April, and was left out of the Confederations Cup-winning squad, but will hope that Scolari will take another look before he finalises his squad for the showpiece next summer.

Wenger turns to Suarez as Napoli welcome Higuain

 

Gonzalo Higuain is on the move from Real Madrid this summer - but not to his previously expected destination.

Arsenal tracked the striker this summer and were in advanced negotiations to take the Argentina international to north London.

But Napoli have used funds raised by the sale of Edinson Cavani to Paris Saint-Germain to sign the 25-year-old.

So, while Rafa Benitez welcomes Higuain to Naples, Arsene Wenger turns his attention to Liverpool striker Luis Suarez, who will cost a great deal more to prise away from Anfield.

Neymar the closest thing to metrosexual Beckham

 

He's a style icon as well as a football hero but Neymar insists that he is no "metrosexual".

"That was more something for David Beckham, who was more stylish," claims the Brazilian forward but doth the lady not protest too much? "Yes, it is true that I like to go out and buy new clothes, nice perfumes and hair products," he admits. "I also shave my legs, for example."

Neymar's new colleagues at Barcelona could be in for a surprise at just how much care their latest recruit takes over his appearance...

الحجب مستحيل: صحافة رقمية وسياسات حكومية خشبية!

 

لقد تشرفت بالمشاركة برسوماتي الكاريكاتيرية مع موقع تقدم, تقدم هو منصة جديدة اردنية تحمل فكرا تحرريا, تقدميا, انتاجيا, مبدعا بيئيا و معلوماتيا.

الكاريكاتير يتحدث عن تعديلات قانون المطبوعات والنشر التي تم إقرارها في أواخر العام 2012 كانت من الأخطاء الفادحة، فالتعديلات لا تصادر حرية الأردنيين في الوصول إلى المعلومة فقط، ولكنها سياسة محكومة بالفشل أيضاً نظراً لطبيعة الفضاء المفتوح الذي يوفره الإنترنت ولا تفهمه "عقلية الحكومة"!

يبدو أن تعديلات قانون المطبوعات والنشر التي تم إقرارها في أواخر العام 2012 كانت من الأخطاء الفادحة، فالتعديلات لا تصادر حرية الأردنيين في الوصول إلى المعلومة فقط، ولكنها سياسة محكومة بالفشل أيضاً نظراً لطبيعة الفضاء المفتوح الذي يوفره الإنترنت ولا تفهمه "عقلية الحكومة"! - See more at: http://taqaddam.org/opinions/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AD%D8%AC%D8%A8-%D9%85%D8%B3%D8%AA%D8%AD%D9%8A%D9%84-%D8%B5%D8%AD%D8%A7%D9%81%D8%A9-%D8%B1%D9%82%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D9%88%D8%B3%D9%8A%D8%A7%D8%B3%D8%A7%D8%AA-%D8%AD%D9%83%D9%88%D9%85%D9%8A%D8%A9-%D8%AE%D8%B4%D8%A8%D9%8A%D8%A9#sthash.yROrex0Z.dpuf

Premier League managers shop at La Liga supermarket

 

Premier League managers are filling their squads with top Spanish talent this summer.

17 players have left La Liga for England already this summer, with Manchester City signing Jesus Navas and Alvaro Negredo, while Brendan Rodgers has brought Iago Aspas and Luis Alberto to Liverpool.

The spending appears unlikely to stop, as Manchester United continue to pursue Cesc Fabregas, and Arsenal remain in the hunt for Argentina international Gonzalo Higuain from Real Madrid.

And with Tottenham in talks to sign Roberto Soldado from Valencia, there could still be more Spanish flavour heading to the Premier League this summer.

Life's a beach: Madrid cruise in Bournemouth sunshine

 

Real Madrid began their pre-season in convincing fashion on Sunday, roundly beating Championship side Bournemouth 6-0 down on the south coast in front of a packed Dean Court.

With it also marking the beginning of Carlo Ancelotti's reign as boss, the Liga side ensured their marquee names were on show and none other than Cristiano Ronaldo grabbed a double in the romp.

Bournemouth erected a temporary stand just for the occasion, allowing as many as 12,000 people to lap up the atmosphere and bask in the aura of the galacticos.

On arriving at Chelsea first time around Jose Mourinho famously announced himself as the ‘Special One’.

The Portuguese has now returned to Stamford Bridge for a second spell and says he wants to be the “Godfather” of the Premier League.

After the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson, it was pointed out to Mourinho that he is the only Premier League manager to have won the Champions League, leading him to announce: "I am just going to be The Godfather".
