FOOTBALL STAR CRISTIANO RONALDO WANTS HIS SON TO BE LIKE HIM(A TOP STAR)
"I want my son to be a player. I am a footballer and I want him to be one too," the Real Madrid star told the Chinese channel Zhejiang Satellite TV, which has been filming Ronaldo as part of a reality show based around the player.
"I think he has something of an athlete about him, he has athletic characteristics. Obviously he is very young, a baby, he's only five but he loves football, that is a big plus."
"I have 30 balls at home, he is always with the ball and he loves it. But I will not force him to be a player because it comes naturally, it has to be his choice," he said. "He will be whatever he wants to be, I am not going to push him at all.

FOOTBALL: Messi: I like the Premier League & watch all the big games
The Argentina skipper has long been linked with a switch to England, with Manchester City known admirers of a player who enjoyed tremendous success under incoming boss Pep Guardiola.
Messi has always maintained that he wishes to remain at Camp Nou, though he has now conceded that circumstances could alter and he may be forced to “change his mind”.
“I like English football and I like Italian football. I follow the big games,” he explained in an interview with Egyptian TV station MBC.
“But as I've already said, my intention is to stay for many years at Barça and retire here.
“I hope things work out like that and I don't have to change my mind. In football you never know, and things can change from one day to the next.”
WIERDOS: Schoolgirl missing for two years escapes after captor forgets to lock door
the family home in Saitama north of Tokyo reading: ‘Please do not try to look for me.’
Her parents believed she was taken against her will but two years passed with no clue
about her fate.
That changed yesterday when she suddenly called home from a payphone at a Tokyo train
station, said a Saitama police spokesman.
Hours after the girl came under police protection, her alleged abductor, covered in blood,
was found on a street in Shizuoka prefecture west of Tokyo, the spokesman said.
He told police he had tried to commit suicide by slashing his neck with a knife, local reports
said.
The girl, whose name has not been released, told police she was kidnapped by the man
who had stopped her on the street on her way home from school, according to public
broadcaster NHK and other media.
He enticed her into his car by saying her parents were divorcing, and forced her to write the
note to them.
The 23-year-old man, identified as Kabu Terauchi, graduated from Chiba University east of
Tokyo this month, having apparently attended school for two years while holding the girl in
his apartment, the reports said.

SPORT BRAWL: Fight breaks out at rugby league game as players clash with fans
Salford apologised for the behaviour of a section of their support after ugly scenes marred
the end of their win at Huddersfield.
The Red Devils recorded a 26-24 victory over the Giants, but come the final whistle some
of Salford’s players were seen in the away end of the ground.
It happened as the Salford players went over to applaud their fans.
Now the Manchester club has vowed to find the troublemakers. In a tweet shortly after the
game ended the club has vowed they will be ‘dealt with’.
The fracas happened as the Salford players went over their fans in the John Smith’s stand.
It’s unclear exactly what sparked the violence, which is unusual at rugby league games. But
it’s thought a child and possibly players’ family members were being crushed in the melee
and some of the players intervened to stop it.
No supporters are thought to have been injured.
The injured steward was treated by St John Ambulance personnel at the scene.

FOOTBALL: MANCHESTER UNITED FC: Depay, Jones, Rojo, Morgan...all likely to be axed
United will listen to offers for their £25million flop after just a year at the club.
Other stars that can go include Morgan Schneiderlin just a season after he arrived from Southampton.
And even defenders Phil Jones and Marcos Rojo face uncertain futures as United look to rebuild after a poor campaign.
Boss Louis van Gaal’s position as boss is also under threat, with Jose Mourinho waiting in the wings to take over.
Reserve keeper Sergio Romero is also on his way, with River Plate confirming their interest.

FOOTBALL: Messi is more intelligent than C. Ronaldo - Xavi insinuates
He said: “Ronaldo is a goalscorer, and Messi is also a goalscorer.
“However, Messi is a much better team player than Ronaldo. I think Messi is the best footballer in the world.
“In football, there are two important elements — fitness and intelligence.
“Ronaldo is very fit but Messi has both the fitness as well as the intelligence, so simply put, he is better.”

FOOTBALL: ROMELU LUKAKU admits he is open to a reunion with Jose Mourinho.
Lukaku, 22, said:
“Some people will say that I need to convince him but it’s not a question of that. Three years ago I was 20 and I wasn’t ready to be immediately effective in a top team.
“Several good seasons, including the current one, have changed the situation. I’ll be 23 [in May] and I could leave this summer.”
Lukaku was forced out of Stamford Bridge in 2014 and sealed a £28million switch to Merseyside.
The FORMER Anderlecht striker has flourished at the club and has notched up 25 goals for the Toffees this season.
And Lukaku has made it clear he wants to play Champions League football in the near future.

TECHNOLOGY: Thinnest ever, scratch resistant metallic glass case and higher quality screen - iPhone 7
It is also likely to be the thinnest iPhone ever at just 6mm thick, and may have improved battery life.
Ming-Chi Kuo has made a living from predicting upcoming Apple releases, and believes the tech giant's next flagship device will use Bulk Amorphous Alloys, pioneered by Liquidmetal Technologies.
The mix of titanium, nickel, copper and zirconium is classed as a glass because of its unusual composition.
Metallic glasses can be extremely strong and flexible, like rubber, and also have an extremely smooth surface like glass.
Apple has been interested in the technology since 2013, when it filed a patent application to use the technology in a device with curved edges.
Website AppleInsider obtained notes written by Kuo, who advises investors on new Apple products for financial services company KGI Securities.
He claims the three year-old-design, made more feasible by 3D printing developments, will feature a glass coating.
And he also reckons the next iPhone will be the thinnest to date, thanks to Apple's investment in super-thin OLED screens.
Organic light-emitting diodes are thinner, do not require a backlight, and produce better picture quality.
The Electronic Times reported that LG and Samsung Display, who are planning to invest $12.8 billion in developing production capacity for OLED, are close an agreement with Apple to deliver the screens.
And the firm has opened its own laboratory to develop the technology further.
The combination of these technologies will lead to an iPhone that is just 6mm thick, significantly thinner than the 7mm iPhone 6, Kuo claimed.
The trend for progressively thinner phones sparked controversy with the release of the iPhone 6, which users complained would bend in their pockets.
These new developments might also bring Apple a step closer to the rumoured iRing, a circular device employing a flexible touchscreen.
Kuo also expects the addition of the 3D touch system in the iPhone 6s to spell the end of the homescreen button.
"As many have speculated, the addition of 3D Touch may provide Apple with a way to eliminate the home button on the phone and use the additional space to make the screen bigger or make the device smaller," he told Barrons.
Better battery life and faster processors are also rumoured to be in the iPhone 7 pipeline.
The revelations come days after Apple unveiled a £359 budget iPhone, a mini iPad Pro, a new Apple iWatch, and free TV upgrades.
The iPhone SE will look similar to the iPhone 5, but will contain many of the features contained in the 6s.
