So Potter Perez and amigos held a Christmas luncheon for the entire Real Madrid family (that includes their basketball players) earlier this week. There was a lot of mingling, laughing and plastic smiles (check out Jerzy Dudek above – does that face scream uneasiness or what?!) Anyway, cocktail was served and Perez also gave a speech to the whole room.
Of course, the best part was when he said this : “You will rest for a few days now and you will have time to think about next year, which will be tough. You must never forget that it is the Club’s Members who rule here. They accept defeat as long as you give your all on the pitch or on the court.”
Immediately, you can visualize the door flying open and a gust of cold wind filling the room! “It is the Club’s Members who Rule Here” will be the only line in Guti’s head as he prepares to fly to Ibiza for the 40,230th time this year.
Both Clarence Seedorf and Thiago Silva went to the San Raffaele hospital (above) yesterday to visit the Prime Minister – and he was apparently thrilled to see them. Damn, Gattuso would’ve been the perfect visitor! (“Primo Ministro, il naso sta cercando un po ’strana” he would’ve said, which translates to “Prime Minister, your nose is looking a little weird.”) Milan also celebrated their 110-year anniversary yesterday and everyone gathered at the Bagatti Valsecchi Palace to celebrate. Lovely!
Lastly, check out Raver Ramos posing as Aladdin for Spanish portal, Ana Rosa. They completely forgot to cast Alfio Basile as Ursula (The Little Mermaid), Hulk as Hulk… or Julio Baptista as… the beast. Then again, it’s 100% made up of Spanish celebrities so all is forgiven. Money from sales of calendar will go to social projects in Nicaragua. If you want a piece of June’s pin-up boy, then you know what to do!
Botox Berlusconi recently approached Jose Mourinho somewhere in the San Siro (we’re guessing) and the Inter coach’s facial expression is one of absolute relief. What did Botox tell Jose exactly? We hope it wasn’t a lousy joke about grey dye in Mourinho’s hair. He’s the Prime Minister and everything but come on, there’s a limit….

The last we heard, El Pato wanted to buy a fantasy island with Sthef. Now, rapaz says he misses Kaka. Awwwwww. “Sinto saudades dele, mas estamos sempre em contato,” he told Chi magazine in Portuguese. In English, this translates to : “Kaká is a great friend of mine. I miss him, but we are always in touch.” Of course! We’re talking about the 21st century kid here… the Skype and Webcam King!
On a serious note (haaaah!), there’s nothing wrong with being affectionate. Plus, Kaka was amigo’s inspiration from Day One. It’s always important to find a reference point at the club – someone who understands you off and on the pitch. Not everyone gets invited to Gattuso’s backyard barbecues or Berlusconi’s raunchy parties, you know. Speaking of Botox Berlusconi (Barack Obama’s best friend), he still believes the Rossoneri are the best team in the world.
AT LAST! The Rossoneri finally pulled off a win yesterday evening against Juventus – albeit on penalties – but it was the Trofeo Berlusconi after all, so losing was absolutely not an option. Uncle Galliani may be a Ray-Ban wearing wannabe, but the tifosi will never forgive him…
Anyway, Diego and Pato scored respectively for their sides and Thiago Silva’s penalty kicked sealed the deal for his team. Mano was brimming after the game. “I am very happy with what I did on the field and I think it was my best match with the Milan shirt. Everyone is telling me this and the Italian press recognized it. Therefore, I am even more confident about the season ahead and I can say that was a great satisfaction to help win this first cup for Leonardo,” he said.
Gangsta Gattuso let his guard down again and got into a tussle with Felipe Melooo. Tipo needs to chill…. “We have not solved our problems with this victory tonight, because there is still a lot of work to be done,” he said seriously. You can watch the fight below and the goals here!
Is this bad for Milan fans? Maybe, maybe not. Speculation is rife that Uncle Ancelotti will make a ‘crucial’ decision next Monday about staying or leaving the club for Chelski. Oh, the grandeur of it all! If he joins, good luck with the Ballackwurst.
It has been reported that current technical director, Leonardo (left in the photo above) who is also a former Milanista, is the clear favourite to replace him at the club. According to our friends in Brazil, sources over there are confident that the deal is ‘as good as done’.
“I’m expecting the club to make a decision,” Fester Galliani told La Repubblica.
In other news, Botox Berlusconi has told close associates that he may have to sell Kaka ‘for real’ to Madrid to balance the Milan books. The clown needs to sit down because no one wants to incur the wrath of the ultras again. Someone send him another 18-year-old!
Oh dear, Abbiati looks like he needs to sit down, immediatamente in that photo.
Anyway, Botox Berlusconi thinks Adriano’s hand ball against Milan have cost them dearly this season. Come on, there’s no denying the photographic evidence we have here!
“I spoke to Galliani on the phone yesterday and I told him if it had not been for Adriano’s hand goal, we would be closer to Inter,” said Botox.
Too bad Prime Minister! We just have to hope Inter slip up now, and like we said yesterday, Jose will not be happy if they don’t walk away with silverware this season. At least Adriano will not be scoring anymore handballs in the Serie A…
