MILAN, March 8, 2010 – The Old Trafford is one of the most gigantic factories company money-kick. TV rights, merchandising and marketing policies: the fuel of Manchester United is extracted at this stage able to fill an average of over 75 thousand in ‘08-’09 (just below the league in progress). The Red Devils have the most attractive brand of football, the club are most valued by analysts and have the third turnover of between European clubs (after Real Madrid and Barcelona) but are also the most indebted. The match between United and AC Milan are also in numbers. On revenues, turnover and brand value, to Silvio Berlusconi’s Milan is out of breath to keep up United’s owned by Red Football Joint Venture of the American Malcolm Glazer. But the duplex Milan wins: debt, half of those of the Red Devils, and trophies international showcase.

BETTER THE UNITED – For the American Forbes, the United and the football club with the highest price: the potential value of 1424 million. Milan, in the same regard, is sixth, scored 754 million. For the Manchester one of its strengths is the brand: Brand Finance (Report 2009) suggests that this is the most attractive brand of football, scored 329 million, while the Rossoneri is the seventh, a value of 154 million. Marketing policies established in Europe, and countries with economies in aggressive expansion, like China and India, have reinforced the image of the United: your site was the most clicked in 2009 (source Alexa: 452.7 million unique visitors , 12.5 million for Milan). The latest report by Deloitte on football, the Football Money League 2010, translates into numbers, the concept of United as a business machine more powerful than Milan.

For Milan generates turnover of 196.5 million (it is the tenth): 33.4 from the box office, 99 from TV rights, merchandising 64.1.

THE BEST MILAN – The American Malcolm Glazer has made the richest society in the most indebted football. Milan wins the confrontation on debt, even after the transfer of Ronaldinho, it was discovered that the red and black boxes are not thriving. Forbes has blocked 768 million debt of the United (early ‘09), but with the last budget (30 June ‘09), this figure rose to 821 million. The transfer of Ronaldo to Real Madrid made it possible to have on the ‘08-’09 record a profit of 56.57 million. The comparison with AC Milan can not be parallel, because the Rossoneri filed on December 31 with the budget Fininvest. The data are the Milan ‘08, when the budget outlines a loss of 66.8 million (there are no entries for the sale of Kaka) and debt for 364 million, of which 119.5 to banks (source: Sole24ore ). The management of Manchester has issued bonds on the market (bonds) to 7 years to 575 million: to find fresh capital will be used to deflate the debt with the banks. Two other areas on the tick on the Milan United: for the Institute for Research on soccer, is the fourth club that has won more in the last century, while Manchester is the eleventh. Then there are the international cups: the Champions League / Champions, 7 Milan and 3 English; the Intercontinental, 3 and one British. You know, when the anthem written by Tony Britten (the author of the soundtrack Champions League / UEFA), the Devil goes wild. It ‘totally different music.

AC Milan striker Marco Boriello, take Inter Milan striker Mario Balotelli, joined the team. According to him, Juventus will be much more developed with “I Rossonerri” rather than “I Nerrazurri”.

“I want players costumed Inter Milan. He’s very good,” he said.

Rivalry between Milan and Inter seemed thrown away by Juventus. He did not hate Milan. Instead, he did not hesitate to admit him Milanisti – Milan supporters nickname – since childhood. He also idolized Ronaldo who had defended past Milan in 2007.

Career with Inter Milan Balotelli often turbulent. He was frequently involved in conflict with coach Jose Mourinho. In addition, Balotelli looks difficult to compete with the attacker as Goran Pandev, Diego Milito, and Samuel Eto’o.

So, Boriello rate, conditions may inhibit their development as players. According to him, more promising Milan conducive conditions that make it easier to develop.

Bridge back from “The Three Lions” following the discovery of a sex scandal with his former girlfriend in the national team, defender John Terry. He resigned because Terry is ready to play together.

“I think in a few months later he’ll come back (and play with English). Everyone was proud to play for his country, but some time ago a difficult situation for him,” he said.

“Family life is very important. If you’re happy in family life then you can play better football. Bridge players are honest. You must do something in accordance with the heart and if you do not have to think about it,” he added.

Further, Toure said, “I think he needs time to get over this difficult period, of course, he left a good defender and he’ll show again.”

BUGGIANO (Pt), March 1, 2010 – “I noticed that our sympathy is not one hundred percent.” Thus, the Inter president Massimo Moratti Buggiano onstage at the theater, where he received the “Lorenzi silver” award dedicated to the memory of the attacker Inter Benito Lorenzi, called Poison (Inter between 1947 and 1958) .

“many moralists” – “It’s not that we dislike – explained a number of Inter – but I noticed that at certain times of difficulty so many have the moral high ground and gave us advice. They do not want the whole House of referees and not talking. We go forward with confidence. We have the team to complete the league and beyond. In Udine, the first time the team was just fantastic. ” That the Friuli was a major victory to keep their distance from pursuers for the league title, “All talk of Milan as the true anti-Inter, but Rome is still in the race.”

“MOU worth the money” – The Nerazzurri president then spoke of Jose Mourinho: “I see the newspapers are talking about him as a character, but you forget that he is above all a great professional. And I say this only now. It takes care of every detail and is very picky. It is very careful to work in training. So I think it deserves the money the contract. ” When asked if this may be the last season of the Portuguese coach at Inter, Moratti shows safe: “He has a contract with Inter, but beyond this I am sure he will remain happy and successful” .

“Balotelli Special – Moratti does not see a closing net against Marcello Lippi Mario Balotelli in the National Assembly. “I have reported the words of coach, but I do not see closure. If anything, common sense. Balotelli is a special talent. Let him mature.” Finally a news blackout on the beat Inter. “It will last until there is no need,” concluded Moratti.

As promised, Wayne, offended by the “betrayal” of the former friend, shook his hand before the start of the race. And then he took revenge: The Manchester City Mancini trounced 4-2 at Stamford Bridge. Arsenal goes to Stoke-On-Trent and goes to -3 from the Blues. Terrible accident Ramsey

LONDON, February 27, 2010 – Wayne Bridge, now there are no more doubts, is a man of his word. For the “betrayal” of the former friend John Terry has refused to return the national team. And now, as announced, has not given his hand before the race – as used by some years now on the sports field – the Chelsea player.

In the field – Photographers, stationed in mass not to lose the moment, took on and on. Then the challenge “Italian” (because of coaches, both of our house) between the London Blues and Manchester City, has begun. With the first half, which closed sull’1-1. Ancelotti’s side went ahead with Frank Lampard to 42 ‘, the City of Mancini equalized with Tevez at 45′.

Sinking – And Chelsea is literally sunk in recovery: after 6 minutes, the City has gone ahead with Bellamy, the 77 ‘Tevez still has tripled Penalty (Belletti sent off for a foul as last man) before he was even expelled Ballack (to 82 minutes). And finally, Manchester closed the practice with a network of Bellamy. Lampard’s penalty which sealed the score at 4-2, 91 ‘, is only good for the statistics. A bad blow for London (for the same races has only one point ahead of Manchester United), while the City takes a big step towards the fourth place that is the Champions League.

Strength Aaron – The result of Stamford Bridge has allowed Arsenal to take me to -3 from the summit and return to believe in the title, thanks to a 3-1 success gained in Stoke-on-Trent. A game marred by the terrible accident occurred to the young Welsh Ramsey: the midfielder underwent an operation in harsh Shawcross (ejected) and left on a stretcher and the oxygen mask. For him, a broken right leg, will force him to stay out for several months, as happened two years ago to team-mate Eduardo. The match, at that moment was sull’1-1: Pugh had scored for Stoke City (founded by the usual action of Delap long throw-in) before like Bendtner. In the finale, a handball in the area of Pugh gave Fabregas a chance to score the 2-1 from the spot. It also arrived in full recovery of the 3-1 Vermaelen from close range.

Pompey Pride – Other results on Saturday: Bolton beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-0 in the clash-salvation, with the same score on the Birmingham City inguaia Wigan. Shot outside of Portsmouth, first in the Premier League club in administration: the pass Pompey 2-1 at Burnley.

FINE FOR COLE – And speaking of Cole, according to the Sun, the quarterback will be punished by a fine of 200 thousand pounds, or roughly 230mila euro for not respecting the rules of procedure, given that last year he brought a woman in his hotel room during a retreat of the team. Beyond. A Cole was also ordered to stop being a playboy, otherwise further action. A warning, however, seems to have fallen on deaf ears, because the Sun is still out this morning with the news that the Blues would be brought back in bed for a third woman – that Ann Corbitt – during Chelsea’s U.S. tour in Seattle the year past. News that will certainly not the happiness of his wife Cheryl, although the singer has been immortalized around Los Angeles, where he flew for business, with an attractive blond named Derek Hough dancing the U.S. version of “Strictly Come Dancing” ( See the Daily Star). Well, the saga seems destined to continue.

THE BOSS SAYS ENOUGH – But Abramovich’s had quite enough and so, after seeing the good name of Chelsea discredited tabloid press and half the world before the dismal performance of some of his players (see JT) against Everton, has decided to intervene because “enough is enough”, or “when is too much, too,” said Gourlay, citing the boss. Three words in English (five in Italian) to make it clear that if the Blues players will come out new stories in the newspapers concerning escapades or something could be “serious repercussions” for everyone and that “no one should be considered untouchable, even those of non-technical staff, as it is shown that in getting famous woman in the hotel Cole was a man who works for the club. “I spoke with the players and so did Ron – Ancelotti said – and we told them we should be alert to their behavior. The image of the club is very important, so we expect a correct attitude and exemplary by all those who work for Chelsea. That meeting was not my idea, I think it was Abramovich and Ron spoke in his stead. I do not read newspapers because my English is not so good, but I know very well what happened. I already said that the personal lives of my players do not interest me as far as wrong to interfere with a job. This is the border and do not go well here. ”

LAMPARD OUT AND ALEX – A border that will be good that no one dares to pass more, because even raft was able to get angry and even a lot. As to the challenge today against Wolves, The Times provides news of the double flat-rate Frank Lampard and Alex: the first, locked flu (but should be against Inter Milan on Wednesday in the Champions League) and the second from a knee injury .

The former England captain portrayed by the tabloids in effusions with his wife Toni in the sun in Dubai. But the idea that someone dared to recite the media, and to raise the grain coach Capello. Meanwhile, stories of escapades out even on the new captain, Rio Ferdinand and Ashley Cole. With Beckham to act as a comforter betrayed wives

LONDON (GB), 13 February 2010 – You know, sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. And the shots that immortalized the encounter between John Terry and wife Toni in the sun in Dubai appear to unequivocally tell of a love found and of a marriage (again) saved.

Photos cutlery – but those images are so cutlery and constructed as to rise to the suspicion that “Terry to play happy family,” writes the Daily Star. In short, having set up a kind of show for the consumption of photographers, much to imagine a future of actor JT decides to hang up my boots when the nail (’s malice is of the “Daily Mail”). And that is in place a kind of “rehabilitation public” by JT the eyes of the world seems to suggest even the cover of the magazine of the Times, which devoted to the captain of Chelsea a service of five pages, complete with exclusive interview where But never appears, even once, the name of Vanessa Perroncel (ie the former girlfriend of Wayne Bridge Blues with which the player has had an affair behind his wife and friend, ndr), while the author throws some comment on the current relationship between Terry and former friend “Bridgey.

in love and happy – Anyway, back to the pictures of Dubai, John and his wife are immortalized while they kiss and embrace in the sight of sons Georgie John and Summer Rose. And confirmation that “the cyclone Vanessa” is now behind us also comes from the very words that Terry would have entrusted to the “Sun”, which was known “to be so in love.”

Bridge wants to give less money – All’s well that ends well, then. Except for the Perroncel, which now risks losing much of the lavish maintenance check every month for the Bridge passed the son Jaydon of four years standing, in fact, the “Times”, the legal defender of Manchester City have already applied for reduction of monthly, as the woman took between 400 and 750mila pounds by JT to keep his mouth shut about their relationship. Likely you will reach a private agreement between the two, with all due respect to everyone. Especially by Fabio Capello that this story can not really over and he thought he had closed the issue by removing the captain’s armband to Terry.

Ferdinand: What Happens in Israel? – Too bad that the new man appointed to head the national team, namely Rio Ferdinand, is an example of righteousness. And if his turbulent past has talked extensively to him, today it is for the “Daily Mail” add new pages, revealing the story from a night away and that Ferdinand had with an Israeli model, the twenty-two Tslil Sela, last June in Tel Aviv, just two weeks before the altar to marry longtime boyfriend, Rebecca Ellison. Actually, according to the story of Miss agent in question, the Robert, that between Ferdinand and Tslil was not only a “hit and run” and she would be shocked to learn that he soon would marry but for details you need to “open the box,” as he made it clearly understood Mr. Roberto. And therefore, we must wait a few Sundays, although the spokesman for Ferdinand has already hastened to clarify that “it is not true at all.”

Cole’s wife furious – more or less the same version that Ashley Cole has tried to all’infuriata wife Cheryl, when he jumped out of the history of risqué photos that the Chelsea full-back would have traded for a nude model. The player has admitted to having done so the photos a bit tedious collection of impulses during a national, but not to have them all sent to Sonia Wild, but to simply forget them on the phone, which he later gave to a friend. Would, therefore, the latter to do the sending and charged with impersonating Cole model, entertaining them with messages and receiving in exchange spicy red light video. That explanation, however, does not seem to convince the lovely Cheryl, immortalized yesterday by the Daily Mail with a face that can not be sad while leaving the hospital where Cole was operated on his left ankle (with a husband who sleeps on the seat rear of the car).

Beckham’s call – after all, already two years ago, the singer found himself involved in another scandal when the Sun revealed the night of sex with her fiery hubby a hairdresser: Cheryl then pardoned, but also said it would be the last time. Meanwhile, she ran to her rescue once again that Victoria Beckham (writes the “Sun”), after calling Toni Poole, wife Terry, to give its support in the aftermath of the scandal Perroncel, yesterday also called Cheryl, invited to spend time with her to Los Angeles to clear his mind and decide what to do. Solidarity between Wags.

Curva Sud empty for Juve in the next home match. The court ruled the sport, which has punished the Bianconeri for “racist chanting against a card (Balotelli, ndr) during the Italy Cup game against Napoli.” Juventus will play then without fans in the Curva Scirea against Roma. The report is written, moreover, that the prosecutors are proven reserves “in relation to injuries suffered by people for the launch…

Gianpaolo Tosel thus imposed on the white club “to race with the industry called” South Bend “devoid of spectators, reserving, as said,” any further determining the outcome of the investigations required by this Office to federal prosecutors about injuries suffered by several people, presumably as a result of the launch of firecrackers, smoke bombs and other objects.

Tosel took this decision after reading “The report of the employee of the federal prosecutors” and “Whereas, the return of the teams in the locker room for the interval, supporters of Juventus, located in the area called” South Bend “, addressed to a player registered with another company (the entire Mario Balotelli, ed) a chorus constituent expression of Racial Discrimination took note of the specific and repeated recidivism ‘in relation to enforcement action taken under CU No 261 of 20 April 2009 and CU n . 167, 12 January 2010, for the purpose of quantifying the magnitude of the penalty, the non-recurrence during the race of discriminatory behavior, its unique traceable to a specific section of the stadium and the practical assistance offered by the Company ‘forces order for preventive and dissuasive “.

BLANC: “RETHINKING POLICE IN A STAGE”
Against violence and racism might need to rethink the presence of law enforcement inside the stadiums. Jean Claude Blanc is quietly but firmly in commenting on the closure ordered by the court of the curve south of the Olympic sport of Turin for the racist chanting directed at Mario Balotelli Juventus-Napoli in Italy Cup. “We note the decision of the sporting justice that evaluated very carefully the specific facts – he said -. We reiterate once again that Juventus is against all forms of racism and violence. We already have in recent months important steps in this direction, but it is perhaps time that the whole movement to give football a helping hand. This problem, which is severe in many Italian stadiums not only in Turin, has not solved all the efforts we have made. The football system must therefore take steps to resolve and perhaps the fact that police and carabinieri are outside the stadium did not help to solve this problem. Rethink perhaps even this is a requirement on which level of government and the League should consider. “

The formalization of the transfer of Goran Pandev to Inter until 2014 was only the tip of the iceberg of a very full day of talks in the market. This summary of the most important: Cristian Molinaro will leave Juventus, but its destination is no longer the athlete. The left-back has found the agreement with the Germans in Stuttgart. The formula is that the loan sale with right of redemption.

And if the 26 year old will never come to Madrid, the front axle of operations bianconero widens. In the negotiations leading Tiago in Spain (also on loan with the right of redemption) may in fact enter the name Argentina’s Maxi Rodriguez, External already midfield chased by Piedmont in summer. In any case, the farewell of Portuguese will open the way the assignment of a midfielder: also like Ledesma (Lazio) and Zapatero (Genoa).

Lacked only the ad and arrived: Lazio, as anticipated by Renzo Agreement, one of the agents of the attacker, announced in an official statement that it has filed the contract of Mark Davies, coming from Genoa, the Italian Football League. Fixed the department advanced the Biancocelesti think the defense and are following with attention Kristijan Ipsa, young Croatian defender who plays in Denmark with FC Midtjylland.

We return to Inter: taken Pandev and officially ceded to Genoa David Suazo, Inter would have received an offer from Olympique Marseille for the loan of Amantino Mancini. The OM says ‘L’Equipe’, expecting a response from the former player of Roma within 48 hours. Let cousins Milan: always second ‘L’Equipe’, the club would be back on the Via Turati Edin Dzeko. The Rossoneri directors have proposed to the 25 million Wolfsburg striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar to get the Bosnian player since June.

We close with a piece of news which concerns the low-lying areas of the standings and with a coming from abroad: the first reinforcement of Siena is Emilson Cribari, who arrived from Lazio defender on loan with the right of redemption. The player, 30 years in March, will be officially introduced tomorrow morning and could be immediately available to Malesani, already for the derby on Wednesday with Fiorentina. Finally, the 36 year-old Roberto Carlos, who had obtained the release from Fenerbahce, has decided to return home and has signed a two-year contract with Corinthians.

More than a stopover useful, the rest period for Milan has had a decidedly refreshing. Milan the best game of the season, in fact, has driven the Genoa at San Siro in the first race of 2010 in an evening that gives the Rossoneri just smiles: the return of David Beckham in the field, which seems never to have gone away from Milan, the test Ronaldinho still alive in a game, sometimes illuminating his assists, his return to the field (protagonist) of Rino Gattuso and Thiago Silva, that of a stellar Borriello, author of a goal from film library of football, and Huntelaar in a network for the first time in front of his audience, albeit on a penalty kick.

But the real protagonist of 5-2 with which Milan have beaten is Massimo Ambrosini: first next to Pirlo, at the center of the maneuver Rossoneri, Ambrosini is a man everywhere, ready to dab on opponents and advanced first to propose in being offensive, so to win two of three penalties of the evening Orsato booed the referee for the Rossoneri, all three appeared net.

It ‘just a play of Ambrosini to open the dances of the game, with a percussion Central to 12′ which forces Biava to foul in the penalty area. From the spot, however, Ronaldinho is not incisive enough to allow Amelia even block his right. Taken confidence from escaping danger, Genoa looks a little ‘more courage in the Rossoneri midfield and passed ahead at the first opportunity: Palacio’s cross from the right and Sculli the quickest to hit the ball head, beating a few steps Dida.

Below is a goal Milan will not break down, spilling effectively in midfield rossoblu. Another sortie central’s irrepressible Ambrosini gives the Rossoneri’s second penalty of the evening, this time made by Ronaldinho on 32 ‘. Even the 1-1 satisfies Milan, which runs the ball with speed and precision, always find ways of embarrassing the rear of Liguria. The goal of 2-1 at 38 ‘, completed after a beat and replies in area due to a leg of Thiago Silva, is the natural conclusion of the dominance of Milan, who are ahead in the locker room to the applause of the public in the San Siro.

If the first time the Milan gives the impression of playing well in the Rossoneri’s recovery is a real domain, as set out by the continual play of Beckham, already in high dusting, and an effervescent Ronaldinho. Borriello stored decisive man of the match in favor of closing the Rossoneri: at 48′ at the end of a beautiful descent Antonini on the left wing, 60 ‘with a overturned from the edge of the penalty area that makes the fleece public hands Milan.

At 4-1 for the third time is the penalty for Milan in the evening, scored by a raid carried out by the central Ronaldinho and Huntelaar (beautiful gesture of the Brazilian left the Dutchman a chance to score the first goal at San Siro ) and for the network Genoa the final 5-2 signed by Suazo to 79 ‘. The Genoa definitely scaled back from Milan, AC Milan, sometimes overflowing, is reported in 8 lengths away from Inter (and with a game to be recovered), waiting for Sunday night’s match against Juventus, who will say much about the future of team of Leonardo. A race to be faced with many smiles more.
