To be honest, it's more down to Chelsea's carefree spending than good business on the part of Manchester City, yet it appears that they are likely to be reunited with a player, who lit up several games while wearing a light blue shirt the first time around, for a fraction ...

Stop Press - Champions League Draw

Arsenal face Porto, Fenerbahce and Dynamo Kiev in the first round group stage. I'm not sure which order the games are played in, but Match day one is 16/17 September.

It's a national league and with TV exposure Sydney FC or Queensland Roar romping home with huge win margins would help no-one. So a cunning plan has been devised to spread the player quality across the League and the Country. Click to continue reading...

Champs League highlights

Maybe there's something strange that happens somewhere over the southern border. Maybe when MLS teams head into Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, they lose all sense of themselves.

Maybe that's why both Chivas USA and New England looked like garbage on Tuesday.

And yes, I'm fully aware that DC and Houston won home-and-away series just this year against non-Mexican CONCACAF teams and all that. Click to continue reading...

My wish has come true!........

0
Its seems that my wish has come true. The other day I wrote that I couldn't see the logic in sending out Johan Djourou on loan and that maybe Big Phil should be sent out instead.

Milan have stepped in and taken Philippe Senderos on loan for a year. This move is great for Arsenal and Big Phil. Click to continue reading...

Don't miss curfew!

A couple Polish guys did and got kicked off the national team.

I don't know much about Poland national team, but I'm guessing with World Cup qualifiers on the schedule, it needs all the players it can get.

But sometimes guys just have to party. As these three did. With some journos at a hotel. Click to continue reading...

Ronaldo Modest As Always

2
When Kaka was named European and World Player of the Year last season, I argued that they'd got the wrong player.
