Halftime

We've reached the second half of the season so far and I can personally say I'm pretty disappointed, Madrid are 3rd in la liga at the moment and are only 5 points (1 win 2 draws) behind Barcelona and athletico Madrid. Surely Real Madrid will recover from this poor run of form and catch up to the two teams who are leading them. They play Barcelona again in March and play Madrid in February, and in both of these tense games fortunately they're both at home. Real Madrid have a good record at home with only 2 losses in the last 39 games at the Bernabeu stadium, and will triumph as usual in their home. At the moment Ronaldo has 18 goals in the league, with Diego costa of athletico Madrid right behind him with 16, Lionel messi's been injured for some time, and has only 8 goals, he may catch up to Ronaldo to win the golden boot that he won last year but he must try hard with Ronaldo in his unstoppable form.

Real Madrid in the World Cup

When you play for Real Madrid cf it's pretty usual you're going to be called up for the World Cup, the entire starting eleven for Real Madrid is going to atten the World Cup, these players are Casillas, Sergio Ramos , Pepe, arbeloa, Marcelo, Sami khedira, Xabi Alonso, Modric, Ronaldo, Di Maria, and Karim Benzema are all attending the World Cup for their respected national squads. In my opinion, this is a true honour for Real Madrid that they are well represented in the World Cup. France, who have two Madrid players (Karim and Varane) are in a nice group in the world with Ecuador, Honduras and Switzerland, this is an easy group for France and they will Forsure go through the last 16 of the completion. Spain have 4 Real Madrid players (Casillas, Ramos, arbeloa, Xabi Alonso) they have a tough group with the last work cup finalist Netherlands but Spain will become the strongest and go through. Germany have one player Sami khedira but unfortunately he has torn his Acl. Portugal have 3 players, Pepe, Coentroa and the superstar himself, Cristiano Ronaldo. Portugal are in "the group of death" with Germany, Ghana and USA, but they will attack hard and get through alongside Germany. The renaming players are Di Maria for Argentina they have an easy group and will get through. Luka Modric for Croatia have a group shared with Brazil who has Marcelo, these two teams will go through and are the most favorited to go through. In conclusion, I myself think they will represent their club well in the World Cup, because many of these teams depend on these players because of their importance on the pitch, Germany and Portugal are my favourites to win, because they've been playing well.

Will Real Madrid get their 10th champions league title?

So we've finally reached the finale of the group stages, there is 8 groups with 4 teams in each of them, every team plays every team in the group twice, home and away. I can gladly say that even though Madrid was in a group where all three other teams were country champions, they still came out on top undefeated. Every first place team plays a second place team, they can be from the same group but it all depends actually on the draw which will be this Monday, I personally think Madrid will win against those teams, because although they came out in second place there not as good as Madrid. The teams that got second place are Arsenal, Zenit St.Petersburg, real sociedad and Mancheter city. Arsenal can be a tough match because of their impact this year on England, with the arrival of the Real Madrid playmaker Özil, Arsenal are playing much better. When it comes to Zenit, Zenit don't really have an impact on the champions league, every single year IF they make the group stage they get knocked out, because they only depend on their star player Hulk. Real sociedad on the other hand is from Spain too, they know how Real Madrid plays and how they think, they clinched a fourth place spot in the league and showed a terrific performance in their group stage. Manchester city also is from England last year they didn't even qualify for the group stage and they were in real marries group stage too! They didn't even win one game and isn't a threat in my opinion. So will Real Madrid get their tenth? I really hope they do because I personally think they are the best team in the world at the moment.
