Having said that, the Indian hasn’t been in the best of form in the lead-up to the year-ender. She lost her second round match at the Hong Kong Open and did not look very confident in the last tournament that she played....

The nature of the NFL in this era is what did them in more than anything, though. Between the unavoidable physical toll football takes on players, and the inevitable economic clash between teams and players, it’s a minor modern-day miracle that the Legion stayed together as long as it did.

The likes of Fernando Gago and Pedro Leon are often considered to be the players that Real Madrid ruined, but a closer look will reveal the crevices in those claims. While it can’t be denied that Real Madrid – Florentino Perez, to be more specific – started the transfer market chaos with flamboyant signings, what is often overlooked is the number of players that have actually developed at the Bernabeu, especially since the turn of the decade....
