Xabi was sold by the owner behind Ancelotti's back, who's apparently still livid about it.

oh shit i didn't know that-- i thought it had been ancelotti who fucked up. florentino is president not owner (it's member-owned), but what about di maria though? why was he sold? cronaldo apparently has been fuming for a while now.

i read a rumor (ridiculous but still) that xabi alonso had fled an affair with some singer at the insistence (threats) of his wife, and that was why he went to munich ha ha ha. srsly, some tabloid shit.

did xavi go to china or the us in the end? i have no idea ha ha ha.

ps- on more bad news, badstuber injured *again* and will need surgery. fucking pep needed to hire more central defenders. should have gone after chiellini or someone like that. too many midfielders-- speaking of which-- look up gianluca gaudino, only 17, looks like he hit puberty 2 weeks ago, and a rising star.
