Ancelotti: "To win at Málaga we need to be on top form"

"We have to keep the run going to continue as leaders," he added.

"It's going to be a very difficult match, because we're up against a team that are having a fantastic season and are in very good shape. Before the defeat to Atlético, they won five matches in a row. We really have to be on our guard and if we want to win we need to be on top form."

"Our style doesn't change whether we're away or at home, and we don't talk about the possibility of setting a new record for wins. We only try to prepare each game and think about our opponent. It's going to be a difficult match and we need to perform well. We have to keep the run going to continue as leaders."

"Isco is happy about returning to Málaga, and the fans there will see a player who is more mature and has more experience. He'll show his quality".

"Kroos is going to play at Málaga. He might be a bit tired, but tomorrow we need him. He'll rest next week. We have a replacement in Illarra, who is the most suitable player to come in for him. He has returned from an injury and played very well in the match against Basel."

"The team doesn't look tired to me. They have recovered well from the match against Basel and we don't need to rotate. Kroos might be a bit tired and next week, in our match in the Copa, we'll make some rotations."

"Bale is in very good shape. He doesn't have any problem and is committed to helping the team to win."

Platini's comments on the Ballon d'Or?
"He is the president of UEFA and in his position I don't think it's right for him to give his opinion on this matter."

"Casillas doesn't have any problem. He is playing very well in his matches: focused and assured. He is a calm player who has his responsibilities. He is disciplined and works and helps the team. I see the same Casillas as always."

"Khedira still isn't ready to play. He needs a few days' work and I think he'll be ready for next week. We haven't thought about any players for the winter transfer window. We're continuing with the plan of bringing in Medrán, who is very young. Khedira has a very small problem in his back and will recover soon."

"The club's desire is to talk to him about a contract renewal. It's a negotiation and I don't know what will happen. He is player that I have a lot of confidence in. He has had a lot of physical problems and I hope that he leaves them behind soon and plays."

Messi?
"At the moment he is showing his immense talent. He is a fantastic player and I don't want to talk about what Barcelona are doing concerning the Ballon d'Or. I only look at the most recent games and Messi has played very well."

Valencia-Barcelona's La Liga clash?
"It'll be an interesting game, but it isn't going to decide anything at the moment."

Real Madrid ditch Christian cross on logo after deal with Middle East bank

In a rather shocking announcement on Thursday, Real Madrid revealed that they will no longer have a small Christian cross on their logo.

The reigning European champions have signed a huge three-year "strategic alliance" deal with the National Bank of Abu Dhabi and will in turn change their logo to not offend their new partners.


Their logo will remain the same in Europe, but with a huge commercial drive about to get underway in the United Arab Emirates the Spanish club believed it would be better to not offend the Muslim beliefs of the UAE.

This move will shock many fans of the Spanish powerhouse, as Real have been in existence since 1902 and have had the royal crown (with a Christian cross on it) on their logo since 1920 but it was removed from 1930-1941. Since 1941 the Christian cross has remained, but now Real will have a different badge in the UAE.

Spanish publication Marca state that "the club is willing to compromise on aspects of its identity in pursuit of these new fans." Have they got a point?

With the world becoming a smaller place all the time and with the biggest teams int he world signing sponsorship deals with companies from many difference countries where many different religions are commonplace, should their identity be altered in this way?

Yes, the cross will only be removed in the Middle East. But should Real have to do that?

Real Madrid fans have different opinions about the issue.Read the article and comments here:

Nasubiria kushuhudia Hat Trick nyingine toka kwa CR7 siku ya leo.

Malaga wakiwa nyumbani kwao wanashangiliwa sana na wameshinda mechi tatu zilizopita kwenye uwanja wao. Leo kazi ipo, lakini Hat Trick ndio dawa yao.
