Van Persie: Di Maria & Falcao are world class

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Manchester United striker Robin van Persie insists he can't wait to play alongside the club's expensive new arrivals. A frantic end to the transfer window also saw United sign Colombian star Radamel Falcao on a lucrative one-year loan from French side Monaco. Such was the flurry of arrivals that only Di Maria and Herrera made their Premier League debuts before the international break, with Shaw not yet fully fit and Rojo unable to obtain a valid UK work permit in time. "I can't wait to go and train and play with the world-class players we have signed – wow," the Netherlands international told reporters. "For me personally, it's brilliant to go and play with some of the best players in the world. It's great that I can go and train and play with them every day."

Man United won't struggle under Van Gaal – Charlton

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Sir Bobby Charlton expects Manchester United to go on a “great adventure” under Louis van Gaal this season. United endured a dismal season under David Moyes last term, finishing seventh and subsequently missing out on European football entirely. But Charlton is sure the Dutchman can turn the club’s fortunes around and believes United – who acquired such stars as Angel Di Maria and Radamel Falcao in the summer – will benefit from having no Champions League commitments in 2014-15. “It seems strange that Manchester United aren’t involved in European football for a season,” Charlton told the Daily Mail. “It’s crazy but maybe it can make things easier for us. “We’ve started with some new players, we’ve not been playing well but we will play well. I think that it’s going to be a great adventure of how we pull ourselves back round and get back to the way it used to be.”

Boniperti: Allegri will be okay - if Juventus keep winning

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Juventus icon Giampiero Boniperti has warned Massimiliano Allegri that only titles will help him win over the club's supporters. The appointment of Allegri, who was sacked by AC Milan earlier this year, enraged the fans but Boniperti says that the 47-year-old trainer will retain their full support as long as Juve keeping winning. "Juventus are a club that must always win," the former Italy international told Tuttosport. "They must fight for every goal, in Italy and abroad. "And that's why for Allegri, and everyone else, it is the results that count. "He's a young coach but already experienced. He won a Scudetto with Milan and he knows the Champions League. "But now he's at Juve. Hopefully his past with the Rossoneri have taught him many things ..."

I should be banned for 40 games for Alaba elbow, jokes Ibrahimovic

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Zlatan Ibrahimovic has joked that he should receive a 40-match ban for his alleged elbow on David Alaba during Sweden's Euro 2016 qualifier with Austria in Vienna on Monday night. The home players were furious when the Paris Saint-Germain striker escaped a red card for catching the versatile Bayern Munich midfielder in the face with his right arm. However, Zlatan, who stands 1.95 metres tall, insisted that it was an accidental collision caused by the difference in height between two players. “He [Alaba] goes into me twice and the third time I try to shield the ball and he [Alaba] is 1.50m or 1.60m tall and then it's clear that he's struck by my elbow," he told reporters after the game. "But the referee blew for a free-kick so of course he has got the situation under control. "But if not, I should get a 40-match ban!"

Silva: We're still gelling with Diego Costa

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - David Silva says Spain have to be patient as they look to accommodate Diego Costa into the team, insisting they are still "trying to gel" with the striker. The Chelsea forward has picked up five caps for Spain since he made the switch to play for La Roja from Brazil, but he is yet to find the net for his new national team. And Silva insists the squad are still getting used to playing with the forward, while he is still settling into the team. "We're trying to gel with Diego. In recent years our game has been based around keeping the ball and creating chances," he told reporters. "We have to be patient because there are new players coming through. Costa looks good and I've spoken to him. There's nothing wrong with him."

Chiellini recall was common sense – Juventus

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Juventus have defended their decision to recall Giorgio Chiellini from the Italy squad and questioned comments made by Gabriele Oriali. Defender Chiellini was ruled out of Tuesday's Euro 2016 qualifier against Norway due to a calf strain, having also missed a friendly victory over Netherlands on Thursday. Italy team manager Oriali expressed his disappointment that Juve had performed "a sudden U-turn" in not allowing Chiellini to remain with the national team until the end of the international break. Juve responded on Saturday by stating that it was common sense for Chiellini to return to Turin. "Following recent events relating to Giorgio Chiellini's release from the Italian national team, Juventus Football Club would like to reiterate its ongoing commitment to working with the FIGC [Italian Football Federation], as it has done for more than a century," read a statement on the club's official website.
