Philippe Senderos has become the forgotten man at Villa Park

Philippe Senderos has become the forgotten man at Villa Park.

Aston Villa have finally decided to make a decision on his future. They have agreed to end his contract under the mutual consent. This has allowed the former Fulham defender to join Switzerland outfit Grasshoppers. The 30-year-old has immense experience of playing in the Premier League. He represented in this team like Arsenal, Everton, and Fulham before joining Villa in 2014. However, his time at the club has coincided with a huge turmoil in terms of form. Former manager Paul Lambert was unable to prevent the slide down the table.

Hence, he was constantly changing the team in the hope of finding a winning combination. Even though he had joined the club only a few months ago, Senderos found himself out of favour from November 2014. He has not played for the club since then. Just when it seemed that the Switzerland international would see out his contract at Villa Park, the club has announced his departure. His return to Switzerland will help him claim his place in the national team. Since making his debut in 2005, Senderos has gone on to make more than 50 appearances for the national team.

Benitez made the wrong decision in joining Real Madrid?

Rafael Benitez is one of the managers who is receiving most heat in the world of football and this is mainly due to the pressure that is surrounding Real Madrid and the manager himself who is going through his first season in charge of the Spanish club but has slipped up and begun losing points in the race for the La Liga title

.The co-owner of West Ham United, David Sullivan has recently revealed details concerning Rafael Benitez and the Welsh businessman stated that Benitez was expected to take charge of West Ham Untied before deciding to take a turn and go to Real Madrid.

“We were two hours from getting Benitez and then Real Madrid came in. We had agreed a contract. He is a top manager whatever anybody says, and I think he’d have done a wonderful job for us.” Welsh businessman, David Sullivan told the media.

Jurgen Klopp was another top coach that West Ham United attempted to sign but the Premier League club eventually had to settle with Slaven Bilic who ultimately decided to take up the managerial position of West Ham United.

It might have been a better for Rafael Benitez to take up the coaching role of the Premier League side instead of Real Madrid, taking into consideration the current situation that Benitez is going through where every day it seems like he is getting closer to an exit from the Santiago Bernabeu.

Rafael Benitez has dismissed suggestions that he is obsessed with Cristiano Ronaldo

Rafael Benitez has dismissed suggestions that he is obsessed with Cristiano Ronaldo scoring in a game.

The Portuguese superstar began the season in unusual fashion after failing to score in the opening few rounds of la Liga action. He returned to form in the emphatic manner possible by scoring five against Espanyol in a game that finished as a 6-0 win for Madrid. Ever since moving to the Santiago Bernabeu, Ronaldo has transformed himself into the undisputed best player in the world. The statistics clearly show that the Portuguese has excelled over any other player on the planet in the last five years.

His goal record has been consistently improving year-on-year, but there is in danger of Ronaldo failing to match his high standards in this current campaign due to the poor start. Benitez, though, explained that everyone knows that Ronaldo is a player who can score 50 goals in a campaign. This undoubtedly brings fear into the opposition. He says that since the Portuguese manages himself extremely well off the pitch, it is easy for him to look elsewhere in the squad to improve. Benitez also spoke about the lack of playing time for striker Jese Rodriguez, who is seen as a brilliant young talent within the Madrid squad.

Things are far from being well at Real Madrid at the moment

Things are far from being well at Real Madrid at the moment. The senior players of the club are clearly unhappy with the top brass and they have got their valid reasons for that.

Florentino Perez wants to run Real Madrid his own way and he is extra dominant.

Of course, being the club chairman, he is totally entitled to make his decisions, but, it’s only fitting that while make those decisions, he takes the players’ as well as public’s views into account as well.

Perez seems to listen to himself only. He does not give it a damn if a certain move of his is going to make his players unhappy.

Let’s talk about that Carlo Ancelotti issue. There wasn’t a single person in the Real Madrid squad who wanted the Italian to be handed the axe.

The players even said that in the media too that despite not having as much of success this season as the previous one, Ancelotti still remains the right man to be in charge of Madrid.

But, Perez, as usual, did not pay attention to anyone and Ancelotti had to go. It did not amuse the players at all.

However, this is not the only issue for the players to be at loggerheads with Perez.

Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid suffered yet another disappointing result

Carlo Ancelotti’s Real Madrid suffered yet another disappointing result, but this time it counted a lot after the latest loss against Barcelona put them four points behind the Catalan club in the title race.

Madrid had a six-point advantage at one stage in the season, but poor form in 2015 has seen Barcelona recently take the lead. Madrid absolutely had to avoid a defeat if they were to keep in the hunt for their first league title since 2012. They visited the Camp Nou for the second EL Clasico in the league. After allowing Barcelona to take the lead early on in the first half, Cristiano Ronaldo levelled things with a fine equaliser.

Just when it seemed that Madrid may take the edge in the second half, they threw too many men forward and committed yet another defensive lapse to allow Luis Suarez to score a goal that eventually turned out to be the winner. Their defeat is yet another setback for Ancelotti, whose position at the club has been questioned a lot in recent weeks. Madrid have managed only one win in the last five matches. Apart from losing their league title, the European champions also came very close to being knocked out by Schalke in the Champions League.

Carlo Ancelotti smashes rumors about moving of Asier away from Club

Carlo Ancelotti has moved into quash any rumours linking midfielder Asier Illarramendi with a move away from the club.

The 24-year-old is subjected to transfer interest from several Spanish clubs, who are willing to take advantage of the fact that the player is not getting much game time at Madrid. Atletic Bilbao are thought to be one of the potential suitors for the player who could cost in the region of € 20 million. The transfer interest has particularly gathered pace after Madrid brought in Lucas Silva from Brazilian football for around £ 9 million.

The Cruzeiro midfielder has been one of the best players in Brazilian football over the last few years. After being heavily linked with Real Madrid for the last few months, the Spanish outfit finally managed to sign him. He is joined by Norwegian talent Martin Odegaard, who has reportedly cost to the club in excess of £ 3 million at just 16 years of age.
