Besides his great goals he is also putting in a lot of great tackles and making great interceptions. Fantastic player.

Ballack is never a Vieira replacement. They can easily play together in the same team. Link is here http://www.calciomercato.com/modules.php?name=titolone ..........in Italian though. Basically it says: The mystery surrounding Michael Ballack's future continues. However, according to sources in Germany the midfielder signed a pre-contract agreement with Juventus that will see him join them on the 1st of July 2006. Despite the ongoing war of words between the directors of both clubs (Bayern and Juve) and talk of the many clubs interested in Ballack (Real Madrid, Inter Milan, Man Utd), both Moggi (Juventus director) and Rumenigge have admitted in private that the midfielder is off to Turin.

I think the reaction happened because he referred to Malaria when it is a disease that kills many in Africa and Chelsea have the likes of Essien, Drogba and Geremi going to Africa for the nations cup. A stupid comment to make if you ask me.

.......Juventus. Apparently joining them on a free in July.

Great stuff. Rafa's sofa from the January sales sorted.

They need sexy football........oh wait

instead of www type in weir weir weir

They are one hour ahead

Actually of the 4 players the one most likely to be signed by Real is indeed Adriano...............

According to the Spanish paper AS, Juventus coach Fabio Capello is in negotations to rejoin Real Madrid as their coach. It claims that Capello has requested 4 players to be signed by Real Madrid: Vieira (10m Euros) Ibrahimovic (40m Euros) Gerrard (40m Euros) Adriano (60M Euros)

Reina 7 Finnan 6.5 Carra 7 Sami 6.5 Warnock 6.5 Alonso 7 Momo 7 Kewell 7 Gerrard 7.5 Crouch 7 Cisse 7

He is learning how to score deflected goals like Sir Frank.

Cisse's attitude seems to have improved since the City substitution. He has the talent to succeed. I hope he does.

No thank you.

Juventus are worried about Real sniffing around Capello. There is talk that the signing of Cassano was requested by Capello. Juventus have issued a statement saying that Capello is going nowhere and now there is talk of a multi-million Euro deal being offered to keep him in Turin.

Yeah in the region of 15m Stg is what I was thinking. Still would be a record signing for us!

Finger' lickin' good it was.............. Posts merged: Finger' lickin' good it was..............

Zalayeta+Oliveira+7m equates to more than 12m.

Gerrard himself admitted he lacked focus last season and that he'd be a different player this year and he has kept his word. What is most impressive this year is how he is working for the team and leading when it comes to team togetherness.

It is 100% a Crouch goal. I think the one that really pushed it as far as giving it to him was the 1st one against Wigan. It was not Pollitt tipping it in but that real loopy deflection off the defender for me. Anyway he deserves both for all his endeveaour.
