While Chelsea continue their hunt for Real Madrid forward Robinho, their main Premier League rivals also have a Brazilian who can play a bit. This player may not yet be a household name in England, although Sir Alex Ferguson seems confident that it’s a matter of time before this defender makes the Manchester United first-team.

Tom Hicks and George Gillett. Two names which featured in the newspapers far more than they should have done last season.

We’ve been here before. In the build-up to Chelsea’s semi-final second leg match against Liverpool, Rafael Benitez voiced his concern regarding Didier Drogba’s inability to stay on his feet. He also mentioned that defenders Jamie Carragher and Martin Skrtel had been briefed on staying vigilant when in close proximity to the striker, not that the […]

It will come as no great surprise to hear that Harry Kewell is leaving Liverpool after five seasons at the club. When the Australian arrived from Leeds United in 2003, he was regarded as one of the hottest players in the Premier League but perpetual injuries have seen him play just a minor role for […]

Rafael Benitez has already expressed his frustration over Javier Mascherano having to travel ridiculous distances in order to play an international friendly for Argentina. We can therefore only imagine what the Spaniard thinks about his midfielder’s desire to compete in the 2008 Olympic Games. The Daily Mail reports that Monster Masch is keen to jet […]

Do I hear £11million for this England international? It’s not yet clear whether Chelsea or even Arsenal will enter the race for the Aston Villa midfielder although it appears that Liverpool have wasted no time since their Champions League exit on Wednesday night trying to recruit Gareth Barry. The Daily Mail report that there is […]

Nobody could accuse Didier Drogba of failing on the big stage and it would be no surprise to see the Ivorian bag the winning goal against Manchester United in the Champions League final later in May. After all, he scored the winner in last season’s FA Cup final, notched two against Arsenal in March to […]
