Super Cup means nothing!

The arrogance of Pep Guardiola is once again making headlines - with his comments regarding how little winning the European Super Cup for a 2nd time has meant to his champion side.

"I couldn't care less...neither could my players."

This coming on the back of recent comments from Real Madrid boss Jose Mourinho who proclaimed after the tournament's completion that the Super Cup meant nothing to him, his players or their fans.

The comments of Pep and Jose have now caused competition organisers to re-think the current format once again - with rumours of a Champions Cup style round-robin tournament between Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester United making a come back.

Ronaldo: I'm not obsessed with Messi

Real Madrid star Cristiano Ronaldo insists he is not jealous of Lionel Messi and stressed that he doesn't "have an obsession" with the Barcelona ace.

Ronaldo and Messi have both been in exceptional form for their respective clubs in recent seasons - and the pair's goalscoring records are spectacular, but it would seem Messi - has had more to celebrate at the moment with Barcelona claiming the Treble in Season 1 of 2011.

The Argentinian maestro also claimed the inaugural FIFA Ballon d'Or earlier this month, while Ronaldo missed out on the final shortlist - though he did retain his place in the FIFA World XI.

But despite missing out on recent individual awards, Ronaldo says he holds no ill-feeling towards Messi and insists that he is solely focused on his own target of winning silverware with Real this season.

I don't have an obsession or a direct rivalry with Messi," Ronaldo told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "I feel the same way about other players. But, one thing is certain: I want to be the best of all footballers.

"I don't envy Messi at all. My priority is to win La Liga and the Champions League with Real Madrid, not Ballon d'Or awards."

Madrid signs Adebayor on loan

MADRID – Real Madrid has signed Emmanuel Adebayor from Manchester City on loan until the end of the season with an option to buy the Togolese striker.

The signing of Adebayor is a clear sign that Real Madrid intend to emulate the achievemets of their great and most fiercest of rivals Barcelona by winning the Treble in the upcoming season.

Season 2, 2011 begins in early February.

Messi wins FIFA Ballon d'Or award

Barcelona star Lionel Messi has been named the FIFA Men's World Player of the Year for 2010.

Messi was on a three-man shortlist with Barca team-mates Xavi and Andres Iniesta but, despite Spain's World Cup triumph, the Argentina forward came out on top in the voting.

I suppose this is just reward for a player who took Barce all the way to 'The Treble' in Season 1 of 2011.
