With just one week before the 2011 – 2012 season of Premier League will start, the teams are testing players, finalize transfers and make their battle plan for the competition.

Chelsea’s new manager is on fire. He managed the third transfer of the summer. After Oriol Romeu (19 years) and Thibaut Courtois (18), Londoners have got to a deal with Romelu Lukaku Belgian (18) from Anderlecht.

The Striker gave 33 goals in 73 games for Anderlecht and already has 10 national selections in Belgium. Chelsea announced on its official site that Lukaku will support the medical tests and will sign the official contract early next week.

According to British media, the transfer of Lukaku will cost Abramovich about 25 million. The Belgian kid is compared to Drogba because of his style and was mentioned by a British magazine like the best young player in the world at his age category.

With all these acquisitions the Blues have to make a good figure this year in Premier League. But they are not the only ones. Manchester United and Manchester City have a very good chance this year also and, we can’t forget The Gunners.

A fact is that City dominated the transfer market and is willing to offer anything just to you have the most important players on the planet. This thing is though something to satisfy their coach, Mancini.

He says that the owners need to bring at least four more players to match the force of Manchester United. Mancini believes that Champions League experience will end his guys physical and ask for backup: “I have 20 players in the squad than I can count, United has 29! We cannot compare now with them.”

Mancini complain that they have players, but he told Bellamy, Onuoha, Adebayor and Wayne Bridge that their service are no more needed for the team and let them prepare themselves at Manchester.

Club leaders are about to succeed a new big transfer. Samir Nasri is increasingly closer to the City, like Sneijder, who seems to get a deal with City. Inter will receive 36 million for him and the player has 6 million per season.

The fact that Mancini is unsecure for the next season shows once again why in football you need the entire team to work and individual talents can’t pull after the entire team.

After a season that brought him very close to the transfer list, Benzema has done this summer some superb games in Real’s T-shirt. He scored six goals in six friendlies, turning in the team’s leading scorer at this time.

Karim Benzema was born on 19 December 1987. He primarily plays as a striker whose influence can extend out to the wings and is known for his technical ability, powerful style of play, and vast goal-scoring ability.

The Frenchman has scored a double in the friendly with Guangzhou, one double with Hertha Berlin and an empty one with each Leicester and LA Galaxy. The first match of the season for Real Madrid Spanish Super Cup will be on August 8, the first round of the double with their old time rivals, Barcelona.

Mourinho and company have taken a rematch after last year’s disastrous season when they lost the Champions League, managing to win only the Spanish Cup yet.

Spanish Primera will be an eye catchy this year because on the two top teams managed to squeeze a third one that got a bunch of good players and hopes to make a stand for the title. Can Malaga manage that? Or will Benzema and company stop them?

Neymar can chose

on August 3, 2011 None comments

Many people began to ask if he is that of a good player when all these clubs are fighting for him. Neymar went from an unknown to the most desired star. A player that caught two of the best clubs in his net and plays with them like with two balls.

Adriano, Barcelona’s defender and colleague at the same time at the national team of Brazil with Neymar, said in a press conference that he spoke with him during a workout about Real and Barca and about the fact that he is wanted in the lot.

“ I talked to Neymar during training. I wonder who will choose between Barcelona and Real and told me he did not know yet, and anyway he can’t tell anyone. A move at Barcelona would be a nice transfer” said Adriano.

Neymar is very close to Real, the press in Spain has wrote in the past weeks about a transfer of 45 million, but the Brazilian player wants to come to Spain only in January, which doesn’t seems to please Mourinho.

A player worth that amount of money must be used during the entire season. And now, Neymar isn’t able to deliver.
