Star attractions for new European football season
As the 2014/2015 European football season kicks off, several attractions have been packed along ranging from stars with extraordinary feats to notable events. Read the highlights below:
- Vanishing spray makes EPL debut: The Premier League which had earlier appeared reluctant to introducing the Vanishing spray, stating it would monitor its suitability first, has now decided to give it the green light. Making a huge success at the recent World Cup in Brazil, the EPL CEO, Richard Scudamore confirmed its use in subsequent Premier Leagues.
- Luis Suarez in Barcelona: In as much as biting Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini at the World Cup made Suarez a demon in the eyes of many, it undoubtedly took his global popularity to a new height and you would be probably be interested to see how his first season at Barcelona goes after a multimillion pound signing from Liverpool.
- Van Gaal at United: Louis van Gaal who was quite impressing in the Dutch national team in Brazil World Cup has got United fans excited in anticipation of victory in the new season after last year’s experimental disaster with Coach David Moyes.
The former Ajax Coach couldn’t have wished for a better start at his new club, from the 7-0 opening win over LA Galaxy to the victory over Liverpool in Miami. He returns home with the Chevrolet Cup, International Champions Cup and, most importantly, an unbeaten record in pre-season matches, the Red Devils’ fans globally are shouting “bring on the season”.
- Drogba returns to Chelsea: With the news that Didier Drogba has returned to West London on a one-year deal, Chelsea fans and neutrals alike would be glad at the prospect of seeing the club legend revisit his former club in the forthcoming season.
Drogba left in 2012 for Chinese club, Shanghai Shenhua after eight great years at Stamford Bridge. He then moved to Galatasaray in 2013 for a year and a half.
