Well they pay a 30 year old midfielder that sort of money, and he get's injured if you look at him.

Do you work for Reuters or what?

Ancelotti - will be requiring some assistance with his youth policy, if his record at Milan is anything to go by. Arsene need not apply.

Maybe...



Gudjohnsen back to the Premier League, you read it here first.

The Spain squad for the Confederations cup looks very, very strong. The midfield is scary.
Five out of the 7 non-La Liga players are from Liverpool and despite having an outstanding season Victor Valdés has been overlooked yet again.

Who's in over him?

Diego López from Vila-real.

Midfield:
Xabier Alonso (Liverpool F.C.)
Sergi Busquets (F.C. Barcelona)
Santiago Cazorla (Villarreal C.F. S.A.D)
Francesc Fábregas (Arsenal F.C.)
Xavi Hernández (F.C. Barcelona)
Andrés Iniesta (F.C. Barcelona)
David Jiménez Silva (Valencia C.F. S.A.D.)
Juan Manuel Mata (Valencia C.F. S.A.D.)
Albert Riera (Liverpool F.C.).

I'd rather Casillas, Reina and Lopez over Valdes.

The Victor Valdés who won this years Zamora?
Personally I'd have had Palop over López.

Yeah, he's average.

The only goalkeeper in the league to average less than a goal a game.
It doesn't really matter anyway as Casillas is nailed on till the day he decides to hang up his gloves.

Casillas should have been replaced by Reina as Spain's No.1 this year. But as if they'd drop Madrid's golden boy.
