Here we go again..
The silly season has begun earlier than expected this year with the bulk of the rumours centering on Cristiano Ronaldo's future. This time, the Sun claims Ronaldo is certainly moving to Real Madrid this time around despite the Portuguese star's repeated denials. Everyone knows that Ronaldo has had a mediocre season by his standards and the popular thoery is that the Portugeuse winger 's been sulking after his dream move to Spain last summer was denied. Then there's another theory that United are looking to sell him to raise enough cash to bring in Franck Ribery or Kaka to Old Trafford.
Apart from Man Utd, the other club getting all the headlines is Chelsea and the club's impending announcement of a replacement for Guus Hiddink. Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti has so far denied all knowledge of a move to Stamford Bridge but for some reason or other, the English tabloids are having none of it and are convinced the Italian will be managing the Blues next season. The Daily Mirror has even gone so far as to claim Ancelotti will bring David Beckham to the Bridge!
There's a good chance most of these rumours are the kind of stuff British tabloids need to sell newspapers. True, some of these rumours have a tendency of becoming reality as denials by footballers and coaches mean absolutely nothing. But by and large, much of this stuff is the work of fiction writers, not real reporters.
But if anything, let's hope we don't have to go through another three months reading about that Ronaldo-Real Madrid move. Please.

This has been going for a very long time, i think he should just leave and stop the talking. Why is the'old man' making so much fuss about the Ronaldo's move to Real Madrid. I tought it was aal about the team and not about an individual player. Is the 'old man' feeling threaten that if he looses Ronaldo to Real, he will loose the crown to Liverpool who are also bidding to capture their other master class player Carlos Tevez. hahaha, here is one for you 'old man' your premeirship title stays at 18.
