Ronaldo wants out since start of season.or so the rumor said..
but atm, he isn't 100% happy cos he isn't playing full 90minutes match in match out...so yea, he admitted that too..so theres signs..

so in replacement of Ronaldo, its Henry, Van Nisterooy or Owen..though the rumor of Owen died down over the months...

chelsea apparently are willing to offer ronaldo bout half a mill per week to join them, so theyre the only team i could see him joining after madrid.

Deco...
the first time i watched him play he immediately became one of my favourites.

they could really use him in the EPL to add a bit of flair and technicality.. the C.Ronaldo 'novelty' has kind of worn off..

yeah, it really has. At first it was like wow, this guy has really cool ball skills, now it is more like, why did he just do that when he could have passed to an open man.

Also, who is this Deco fellow? neva heard of him.

portugal's naturalised brazilian. regarded as the guy who makes porto tick. great great playmaker but he looks a bit puny. english defenders would enjoy pushing him around i think.

another good porto player i've seen this season is carlos alberto. damn fine prospect they have there. he does seem to conform to the pipo inzaghi school of diving tho.:D

yeah, i remember seeing how wound up the manc fans were when he was falling over every 2nd minute at old toilet. it could ruin his rep for life if he's labelled a diver this early in his career.

are you serious?! :eek:

this guy is touted as the successor to Rui Costa.. perhaps that isn't saying much based on his Milan career (which involves a couple seasons of inconsistent displays and zero goals until recently) but when this guy was at Florence (Fiorentina) with Batistuta, he was at times the best #10 on the planet, and for the 8 or so years he was with the Viola he was in the elite of Europes footballers..

and Deco is the one they say will replace him - he was linked with Juventus + Real Madrid last season but nothing materialised.

you should really try to watch him play if you can, sometimes SBS shows a Portuguese SuperLiga game (im not sure about cable), and if he's on his game you'll see why hes so highly regarded - hes an absolute wizard

i will see if i can watch some of his games, cause i really dont follow portugese soccer much, since i thought most of the good players have left to spain and italy.

Of course

as we all know - one of Europe's finest - Jos Mourinho

the promising right-back - Paulo Ferreira

the dynamic holding midfielder - Costinha

the flamboyant South African artileiro - Benny McCarthy

Brasilian attacking phenomenon - Derlei

just to name a few :)

hmm socceroos 1 - 0 against the suth africans. that goal by bresicano was pretty sweet, nice little assist by mark viduka as well. i missed the first half, second half was pretty standard.
