Casillas was benched, Ronaldo was made captain, Casillas got his spot back, Ronaldo wanted to give him back the armband, Casillas wanted Ronaldo to keep it.

Casillas is being benched by Mourinho, so when Adan was red carded and Casillas had to play Cristiano offered the captains armband which he refused.

Casillas hasn't started for Madrid for the past two games. He's usually the captain, so when he came on today after the other goalie got sent off, Ronaldo tried to give him the captain's armband because Casillas is usually it. Iker then told him to keep it because Ronaldo started the game as captain.

To be fair, even if this was true, that's still a big step down in comparison to a player who's just not a moody oval office. Having said that he might actually be a great captain and be incredibly supportive/helpful... part of me really doubts it though.

You should hear my accent.
Jermaine Pennant's team name rules.

Also, Raheem Sterling may want to be more careful with the pictures that he posts online.



The British transfer record got a haircut, but still needs a shave.



And Suarez is giving the papers more great images.

Depends on how you interpret it, no? What if Casillas is just angry about being benched and is expressing his unhappiness by turning down the armband? That's what I thought was happening...

I had read somewhere that you're not allowed to switch the captaincy between two players on the field, that you can only change who is captain if the original is subbed off, but I haven't been able to find a rule stating that anywhere.

Pretty sure that's not the case. Either that, or I'm on the brink of senility.

The chairman is a good lad who means well, and while Laudrup certainly has a few faults, his positives far outweigh them.

Just a follow up for that video of Boateng getting jeered at that I posted in another thread:

quote:

6 people are being investigated for the racist chanting directed at Boateng and others during the Pro Patria friendly with Milan. Among those being investigated is a young sports advisor, employed by the FIGC for the town of Corbetta, which is a frazione of Busto Arsizio, where the game was held. At the very least I expect that guy to get fired. Source: in Italian

I encourage you guys to come to the Serie A thread to post about it if you want so we don't poo poo up this one.
