I think this is the key point. Even Walter Smith says Rangers can't match up against top European teams so they have to bunker for points....
I'm not knocking Ozil but if Kaka's playing in his pre-2009 form, the guy's backing up someone who you never take out.
Eh, I just watched Madrid draw against Levante and Ozil was basically invisible before being subbed out for Benzema. If not for Kaka falling...
My guess is that Hicks knows that he, personally, won't get anything out of a sale right now so rather than walk away he is doing everything...

Moyes has repeatedly said that he has no money for new signings. Everton will only do loan signings unless they sell first. Just today...
I agree with you that the lack of EPL purchases is driving the market but the 25 player rule is just a smokescreen. This is being driven by clubs...
Obinna was weak at Malaga last year. I can't imagine Villareal wanting him on their first team.
Re: Purg-Adu-tory: The continuing saga of Freddy's off season: July 28 poss. deal w/ Sion I think there a couple of reasons for this. 1....
I dunno man, it doesn't seem like Villareal considers Jozy anymore. Target striker is covered by Nilmar and Marco Ruben. Rossi is their only...
Well to be precise they would be using the profits from Alonso's sale to pay interest, not the debt itself. Liverpool lost quite a bit last year...
AS claims that Nilmar to Villarreal is done for 10 Million Euro plus another in incentives. That would round out their strikers along with...
Fair point, but in this circumstance the marginal improvement in possesion that Torres would provide is, in my opinion, far outweighed by Clark's...
The posts calling for Torres to start tomorrow are going the complete wrong way in how the US should approach the game. We can never hope to play...

This is an excellent idea. Sava doesn't have the ball skill to stick in Europe any more but aside from maybe Brian Ching there's no one in MLS...
This would be quite a gamble by Chicago. Pancrate makes some awesome runs from the flank but he isn't a goal scorer. The only way he generates...
Denilson keeps getting shuffled around because clubs gets entranced by his name and talent and ignore his lazyness. Musampa isn't like that, he...
With the goal this weekend Rossi is now tied for for 3rd in the Liga high scorer list with Fredi Kanoute and Wesley Sneider. The Argie...
Wow, that came out of nowhere! Racing should be a great oppurtunity for Danny as Marcelino, the new coach, has made it clear he really didn't...
Looking at Villareal's current roster, they have Tommasson and Guille Franco for the target striker role. Guess Rossi will be fighting Nihat and...
