Kaka- Baptista transfer rumors!!!

There are rumors that Julio Baptista might be going to AC Milan for 20 million Euros (about $27m). Furthermore, Real Madrid seems to be still insisting in getting Kaka to dress in white the next season. Rumors have it that they will offer this week AC Milan 90 million Euros (over $120 million)for the player. We will see how this summers trading season ends. Do you think he is worth that much and should he move to Madrid?

C. Ronaldo vs. Messi

Two of the most exciting wingers on the planet. Both are young, fast, and talented. Pure joy to watch!

Which one would you like to have on your team and why?

Daniel Alves - Right Back Wonder!!!

In my opinion Daniel Alves (still Sevilla FC) is currently the best right back in the world. Many consider him the MVP in the Spanish league during the last season. He does it all, playing as right back or right wing, but I like him better in the back because he can surprise the other team with his runs. He was one of the top assist givers, has speed, great one on one, incredible stamina (runs all the time), defends, attacks, powerful kick, nice set plays, winner mentality, and he even scores.

He is just a well rounded player that can influence the game from the right side. Many big teams are after him, with Chelsea being especially interested. If I were a manager, he would be on top of my list as well. So what do you think, anybody better in his position at the moment? How much would you pay for him?

Ajax 94/95, a team to remember!!!

Going back a decade there was a team that outplayed everybody. I still remember watching the Champions League that year and enjoying every game they played. It was the golden boys of Ajax in 94/95 when they won the CL.

They were pure speed and youth (average age 24). I am sure you recognize many of their names: Van der Sar, Reiziger, Blind, Rijkaard, Bogarde, R. de Boer, Finidi George, Seedorf, Kanu, Litmanen, Overmars, Kluivert.

After that they sold many of their players and since then Ajax has not been the same anymore.



Watch some of their videos, it was pure attacking soccer.

John Terry on top $$$$!!!

John Terry has signed a new contract with Chelsea for £7m a year (about $14million), which makes him the highest paid player in Premier League history. Is he worth that much? What do you think?

NEWS!!! Reyes to Atletico Madrid!!

After spending one year playing at Real Madrid (but still belonging to Arsenal), Reyes will go the next season to Atletico Madrid. The winger has been signed (almost 100%) for 12 million Euros (about $16 million). Do you think he will succeed at Atletico Madrid?

The best at the moment?

This may be open for debate, but who do you think is the best player at the moment? Here are two that come to mind. Kaka or Ronaldinho, which one is the best? Or do you have somebody else in mind?

Enjoy!!!

Maradona vs. Pele

Why not start this blog with two of the best or even the best players in the history of this sport.

Many argue that one of these two is the greatest of all time. What do you think?



Looking forward to read your comments.
