Will Germany's Mesut Ozil Become One of the Best Players in the World?

I started watching this kid during the 2010 World Cup. Even at 21 years old, he seemed to have it all; poise, flair, skill, and a cool head. I watched Germany play Holland tonight in Euro 2012, and there's no doubt about it, he's very much world class. He's 23 now, and I'm sure that in a year or two, he'll emerge further, to become one of the very best players in the world. As an Englishman, I fear that the German national team, which was generally young in 2010, will develop with him, to become a truly momentous force in world football.

Magic Mourinho Plays Real Madrid Friendly Game - Against 109 Kids!

I have to say that Jose Mourinho is probably the best football manager in the world. I'd love to see 'The Special One' as England manager, one day.

On a pre-season tour, his current side Real Madrid have been consistently demolishing Chinese League opposition, so he thought he'd set his players a new, and very different soccer challenge - a friendly game against 109 kids!

Many of the Real players looked bemused, as they battled hordes of youngsters for the ball. The kids forced three saves out of the keeper in the first half, but Real led 2-0 at half-time, courtesy of a great free kick, and a shot from a good cross, which was deflected off a poor kid's face. The kids got one back in the second half, but Real won the game 2-1.
