Yep, Massimo Marrccohini looks set to replace Camoranesi.

Which means the World. He's the World's best so. Alonso is as good as any of those except Ballack who plays at a high level every week and has the expectation of playing and leading a demanding club and country.

That can be coached out... e.g. Henry at Arsenal. On raw talent he's the best thats available. Zlatan and Adriano are similar types and similar temperaments and loads here would have those like a shot. Having a supreme talent usually means a suspect mentality. Rafa's held in high esteem by the Spanish players in a similar way Wenger was by the last French generation.

I don't see why we should be over-cautious when it comes to a player like him.. Cisse scored for a laugh in France but has flopped majorly. He gets caught in possession a bit cos the players around him aren't at his level. Only finally this season have Atletico had the financial muscle to get their squad padded out with the likes of Petrov, Kezman, Maxi and Galletti to support him. Finally he's still very young. He's been lauded by AC Milan as the second coming of Van Basten fosince he was 16 and always been top of their scouting reports. If he becomes available we just have to get involved..

He's brilliant.. Unstoppable on his day.. Bit like Barnes was pre-LFC.

Torres ain't good enough for us but is for Arsenal (Who are in for him too).. I'm not having that. We want the best and IMHO Torres is best bit of potential we could get. The guy has a huge amount of raw ability that hasn't been harnessed due to having to carry the hopes of one club on his shoulders. He is the Xabi-type signing and will get another 40% better if we sign him due to Rafa's tutoledge.. People who think Rafa only buys "bit" players would remember his comments about furniture in the past. He wants to get who he wants..

Is she "brown bread"?? Nevertheless she'd make a goal look like an ice-hockey one.

Me thinks someone was thinking of Claudio Reyna???

He said he wanted to take a step back and was unavailable for far flung friendlies.. He'd be well up for the World Cup. He'd give them such a backbone. Klinsmanns mad to dismiss him.

Harry Kewell??

Hmm.. Didi Hamann?

I like winning any trophy we're in... Jesus...

Tactics and playing style are all about being variable... The 88' Kenny side was an anomaly in that it was head and shoulders above anything in that season and could batter teams with free-flowing football.. Arsenal play that way at home but have no plan B and henceforth have had a dire legue season. We on the other hand have a number of different plans thanks to Rafa.

Amazing scenes.. Hard too believe its coming up to near a year..

He'll be joining the Spanish team lot then..
