Liverpool striker Andriy Voronin has agreed a one-year loan deal with German side Hertha Berlin,
the Anfield club have announced.
The Ukraine international signed for Liverpool on a Bosman free transfer last summer and scored six
goals in 27 appearances.
However, the impact of Fernando Torres restricted his first-team opportunities and Robbie Keane's
arrival this summer forced him further down the pecking order, prompting the forward to move back
to the Bundesliga, where he previously played for Bayer Leverkusen, Cologne, Mainz and Borussia
Monchengladbach.

Amr Zaki is the breakaway leader in the early stages of the FF season for Top Striker. And at only
£6.2m he represents good value indeed; he is playing every minute, has 3 goals and 1 assist to
his name, and perhaps more importantly is proving to be a bonus point magnet. He has earned a bonus
point every week for the first three weeks, and enviable achievement that is unmatched by any other
player.

They play in different leagues, so perhaps the comparison isn't valid, but two different results
and contrasting styles of play caught my eye this weekend:
Wolverhampton Wanderers stormed to the top of the Championship table with an utterly convincing 5-1
defeat of Nottingham Forest at Molineux on Saturday.

Rafael Benitez suffered a torrent of abuse and saw his Liverpool side miss out on the chance to go
top of the Barclays Premier League after a goalless draw at Villa Park.
Aston Villa fans taunted the Reds boss with chants of 'There's only one Gareth Barry' after the
collapse of the England midfielder's move to Liverpool, and some of the crowd aimed personal
insults at the Reds manager.

Liverpool striker Robbie Keane says he is too experienced to start worrying about his Anfield goal
drought.
The Republic of Ireland forward insists his slow start is nothing to be concerned about, and he
said he is looking forward to developing a lethal partnership with Spanish ace Fernando Torres.

Liverpool ace Steven Gerrard says he had no choice but to go under the knife to resolve his groin
problem.
Gerrard underwent the groin operation earlier this week after the club decided the time was right
to get the injury cleared up.
The injury will sideline Gerrard for up to two weeks and it means he will miss England's World Cup
qualifiers with Andorra and Croatia next month.

I generally hate the transfer window because it's an excuse for all bad papers to print simply made
up rumours rather than attempt any actual journalism. However the last day is always good
fun. I think that's mainly because I am a Spurs fan and we have a penchant for concluding
deals at 23.58 in [.

This weeks Champions League draw will see Fernando Torres revisit Vicente Calderon as Atletico
Madrid are pitted in the same group as Liverpool.
Fernando Torres spent six idolised years at Atletico Madrid, accumulating a multitude of
appearances despite his young age.
El Nino hasn't taken long to win over the Liverpool support scoring some fantastic goals in his
debut season, and looks set to continue that trend this campaign.

Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez was satisfied with the point his side secured away to Aston Villa,
but believes his men need to improve their final ball if they are to challenge for a top-two
finish.
In a drab affair at Villa Park, both teams lacked potency in the final third as Robbie Keane,
Martin Laursen and John Carew spurned the only real clear-cut chanced of the game.

Some would agree that this was an absolute borefest while others would not. Martin O'Neil and
Rafa didn't get into a scrap and Barry didn't cry so it was definitely not the grudge match we were
hoping for. For me, the game pretty much ended when Torres came out with a pulled hamstring because
at that point the attack threat was gone.

Liverpool's chief executive Rick Parry insists that the fighting within Anfield is now over. Rows
between Parry and Rafa Benitez over who would and wouldn't be signing for the Reds, along with the
fallout between owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett, threatened to see chaos decent. However Parry
says that stability has been restored and everyone is now pulling in the right direction, as he
explained to Sky Sports:
'Everyone is working together.

IT clearly wasn't in Rafael Benitez's plans to get to a day from the end of the transfer window and
be watching Gareth Barry playing for the opposition.
But it was the players missing from his own squad that proved the greatest frustration for the
Liverpool manager.
Steven Gerrard's absence already assured Liverpool would be suffering from a lack of creativity
– but having to make do for an hour without Fernando Torres, the one player who can make
something happen out of nothing, left Benitez on a hiding to nothing.

FERNANDO TORRES is set to miss Liverpool's meeting with Manchester United after he suffered a
hamstring tear at Villa Park yesterday.
The Spanish striker, who sustained the injury after half an hour of the goalless draw with Aston
Villa, will undergo a scan to assess the extent of the damage today.

Arsene Wenger's recent outburst about banning clubs with a large deficit from UEFA competitions
would end the super club status so coveted of Billionaire owners. This scenario would amount to a
cap on transfer fees and excessive wage demands. Clubs would have to spend only what they earned,
and if they exceeded a percentage limit [.

Ok, da haben wir das Thema wieder auf dem Tisch. Herr Hoyzer ist ja mittlerweile schon fast in

It is deadline day and Arsene is slowly running out of time to sign that elusive holding
midfielder. A centre back or winger would also be rather nice. My mail is that Borussia Dortmund's
Sebastian Kehl could be on his way to the Emirates although BvB are very reluctant to sell. It is

Morning all,
it's a very quiet start to what we all hope is going to be a very busy day. It's transfer
deadline day and clubs have until midnight tonight to bring in new players before the window shuts
and they have to make do with their squads until January.
Obviously we're all going to be watching anxiously, breath bated, to see if Arsene gets his
chequebook out.

The St Joseph News has done an excellent job of looking at the escalating cost of competing in
the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA). It's primarily a football discussion
but it points to the role of Athletics on campus and as part of the process of differentiating a

Pumas UNAM 2-0 Necaxa festejo
Originally uploaded by prismaticoLa Rebel y todas las porras universitarias han de haber festejado
en grande la actuación de los Pumas y de Juan Carlos Cacho.
Y es que antes de este torneo con la salida de los jugadores argentinos, para muchos se vislumbraba
algo gris, yo pensaba exactamente lo contrario o sea lo que esta sucediendo que con Cacho y Dante
Lopez se jugaraia mejor adelante que con Solari, Scoco y el pecho frio de Sambueza.
