Carlos Tevez is Argentina's next big thing, Saviola and Riquelme used to be their 2 next big stars, but they both faded away for a while. Now Riquelme's back, but I'm not sure what's going on with Saviola. I wouldn't mind if Pool snapped him up. If he goes as cheap as Riquelme did to Villareal (2.2mil), he'd be a steal.

Tevez = CM God. Robinho and Henry will be absolutely amazing.

 

[copious]

LOL! yeah he is a CM god, along with Kabba Samura and Kennedy Bakicioglu back in the days.

tevez has kinda faded too since joining corinthians... along with his chelsea of americas team. as has D'alessandro since going to wolfsburg, another one of the "next big thing" that comes out of argentina every year...

tevez is playing ok in brazil, but i doubt he will play any better..i wouldn't expect an argentine playing their best in brazil

robinho for 14 mil, bargain for arsenal, if they do get him Real's executives would be shitting on each other's faces

 

[LMF^^]

Santos rejected a 20mil offer from Real Madrid, so I don't know if 14mil from Arsenal iz enough.

 

[AcStyle*]

So who do u guys think will win the Confed Cup final?

Brasil or Argentina?

eh?
serious?

cos apparenly Santos is willing to accept anything over 12 million pound

 

[LMF^^]

Robinho lookz set to go, but the president of Santos wantz him to stay another season, or hez just tryin to jack up the price.

I don't know, but I reckon Madrid will get him.

Juve set sights on Vieira

"What we want is a midfield partner for Emerson - and our wish is to buy Vieira if Arsenal are willing to sell.

"There have been rumours about Thierry and Barcelona. Of course I know about them, but they're all just talk. They are rumours and they are unfounded and he isn't going anywhere.

"The same goes for Patrick. He will also stay with us for next season — as will Robert.

Sorry Juve you cunts, you can fuck off till next season

haha...looks like chelseasstriker hunt isnt going well... they are back to hounding crespo.

meanwhile robinho's agent says he's unlikely to goto arsenal because he prefers the spanish game

and it looks like robert and sourness wont exchange xmas cards this year

 

[bazookajoe]

Wait, Arsenal are trying sign someone who isn't French?!!
Did Wenger get fired or somethin?

haha...I think France has run out of quality players for them to sign.

I think Arsenal were hunting Evra, but I think Evra's just signed a contract extention till 2008.

If only the goal in yo sig iz displayed in real time, it'll look much mo spectacular.

 

[Constip8edSkunk]

yep yep... when i cut out some of the frames i forgot to change the delay time... better now?

on a side note... if only seedorf could control himself and not try to repeat this goal all the time... skying it to the row z 95% of the time...

Edit: Frank Farina "resigns" ... well they did kinda build it up in the media... sort of... not the best prep just before world cup qualifiers

 

[...]

i'm not a fan of Farina..then again he transformed Kewell from a left midfield style player to a more striker type player

lets hope we can find someone that will put some football sense into the national team...

 

[AcStyle*]

I wasnt a Farina fan either, but sacking him 5mths out from the WC qualifiers isnt exactly ideal...

Realistically tho, he should hav resigned after failing to qualify for Japorea 02, in any srs footballing nation when a manager doesnt qualify for a major competition he resigns or is sacked...

Zola retires from profession football

 

[RUB!X]

oOoOo yeah, love that goal by seedorf
cmon Arsenal get Robinho !!!
Zola was a great player, my second favourite to Bergkamp back in the day ...
