Zidane doesn’t want to lose Varane in the summer
And Varane, who joined Real from French side Lens in 2011, has been linked with a move away in the summer after it was reported he was considering his future with the Bernebeu outfit.“I don’t want a Madrid without Varane,” Zidane said at his press conference.“He’s a young player (25), he’s been here for eight years, he’s doing fine.“He didn’t say anything to me. He’s at the best club in the world and he knows it, he’s won a lot of things.”Zidane added it would be ‘disrespectful’ to talk about a dressing-room clear-out but acknowledged the club would have to make changes ahead of next season. “There are many things that we are talking about changing next year, but you have to respect all of the players who are here,” he continued.“Talking about cleaning (out the dressing room) seems disrespectful.“We’re going to have to make changes, but this is not the time to talk about it.”Varane was crucial in France’s World Cup win2

The manager, who took over for a second time less than a month ago, would also not be drawn into commenting on the future of Real’s record signing Gareth Bale after the Welshman was booed by Madrid supporters during the 3-2 win over Huesca on Sunday.Zidane told the press conference, also reported on the club’s website: “The whistles are never good, but they also booed at me and you have to accept it.“You have to have personality for that and to accept what people want.“Regarding the future of Gareth and other players, we’ll see.”

Arsenal fan Darren Bent admits choosing Tottenham Hotspur over West Ham United in 2007 was ‘easy’
Darren Bent admitted it was easy to reject West Ham United for Tottenham Hotspur, despite being an Arsenal fan.In 2007 after relegation to the Championship with Charlton Athletic, the striker was seemingly on his way to Upton Park after the Addicks accepted a bid for their star asset.Darren Bent left Charlton for Tottenham for a club-record 16.5million in 20072
Darren Bent left Charlton for Tottenham for a club-record 16.5million in 2007
However, Bent instead went to rivals Tottenham Hotspur for a club-record fee of 16.5milion in June 2007.Speaking on Goals on Sunday, the former England international revealed he felt Spurs were in a better place than the Hammers at the time.He said: I was kind of torn at the time because I was going to West Ham funnily enough.I had been to meet Alan Curbishely, come back from holiday. Obviously I knew Alan Curbishley really well after he had taken me from Ipswich to Charlton.Bent celebrates scoring against the Hammers in 20082
Bent celebrates scoring against the Hammers in 2008
But obviously I ended up going to Spurs because I felt Spurs were going in the right direction, theyd finished fifth.I was competing with some top strikers there; Berbatov, Defoe and Keane.Although he scored 25 goals in 79 appearances for the north Londoners, Bent was sold to Sunderland in 2009.And, despite his childhood allegiances to rivals Arsenal, the former Ipswich and Derby striker admitted he did not have any regrets following his two years at White Hart Lane. No, not really because Spurs are a massive club, he added. Yeah I was an Arsenal fan, but youre talking about yor career and playing for a massive football club.At the end, the decision was pretty easy to be fair and for my own development I wanted to go there and develop and compete with them kind of guys.Keane, Berbatov and Defoe it doesnt get much better than that.

The Chelsea link is an obvious one because of my career there and it might mean weve had a pretty good season here and Im happy with that.Monday is huge for this club. Its huge for me and I want to make sure that any Derby fans that might say whats Frank thinking?, Im absolutely thinking about this game and after the game I will sit with Mel (Morris, Derby owner) and say whatever the result where are we going forward with the club?

The eccentric Argentine, nicknamed El Loco, has become something of a cult hero in Yorkshire, breathing new life into the club with his high-octane philosophy and crazy personality.Another thrilling display on Tuesday night saw the Whites beat Reading 3-0 to stay in control of second place, two points ahead of Sheffield United and the same distance from league leaders Norwich.Bielsa has captured English footballs imagination through powerpoint presentations and blue buckets, and he seems to have gained another admirer in Durham, who couldnt help but rave about Leeds. I was blown away [on Tuesday night], Durham said.You could easily say Hernandez is the best player in the Championship.Bamfords dummy for the first goal thats the kind of football where you make a little noise when you see it. It was just sensational.There was some fantastic football from Leeds. And I was thinking, Is this the most entertaining side weve seen outside the top flight, ever?My neighbour is a big Leeds fan and whenever Leeds are playing in the south we try and get to the game, and we do it because Bielsas Leeds are just brilliant.The fans are brilliant as well, so to stand with the fans is an experience, but also the way they play with the high intensity.Hernandez has been exceptional for Leeds2
Hernandez has been exceptional for Leeds
He talks so highly of his players, he seems to love his players and it gives them confidence to try and do things.Look at young Jack Clarke when he was in the team, absolutely incredible. Youre looking at teenagers just going at defenders and being truly entertaining.Nine games remain as the race for automatic promotion reaches its climax, and there are concerns Bielsa could leave Elland Road if Leeds fail to go up.
