Go ahead, name one club in the Uzbek League beside the one just below your line of sight. Can you?
Doubt it. And if you can and don't live within the country's borders, it's time for a hobby. FC
Bunyodkor, that club which made a big theatrical production out of Samuel Eto'o (and half of Barca,

Cyprus's most famous and supported club AC Omonia will look to take home advantage despite being
tagged as the underdogs. Omonia finished last season 3rd behind APOEL and Anorthosis Famagusta, the
former also participating in the UEFA Cup and the latter having the prestigious honour of being the
first Cypriot representative in the Champions League Group Stage.
You can call Deportivo La Coruna Team CONCACAF.
Led by Canadian captain Julian De Guzman (above, left) and featuring Mexican winger Andres
Guardado and striker Omar Bravo, Deportivo boasts a wealth of talent from the CONCACAF region. That
group helped Deportivo pull off one of the upsets of the weekend, a 2-1 victory against Real
Madrid.
The UEFA league coefficient is used to rank the leagues of Europe and the purpose of these rankings
is to act as a way of determining the number of clubs from each league that will participate in the
the UEFA Cup and the Champions League. The ranking determines the number of teams competing in the
season after the next.
I'm heading to Turku tomorrow and will do a live blog of the game. They've sold 4,700 tickets, the
Greek press is reporting that AEK are there to watch Finnish players, and the game is actually
going to be shown on Finnish TV, on channel Viisi/The Voice. All very exciting, I'm sure you'll
agree. Perparim Hetemaj [.
What's in a name? Well plenty to be honest. The name of a football club, the colors and emblem they
use, the nicknames they're given - all of these can explain a great detail about how the club is
seen by its fans (and rivals) and can give insight into local history and culture. While some are
rather straightforward, others are absurdly convoluted, others just absurd.
According to UEFA, the Greek Super League is more than twice as good as the Cypriot First Division
(coefficient ranking of 25.8 to 10.1). Doesn't matter. First it was Anorthosis, rewarded with a
spot in the Group of Holy Shit I Don't Want To Watch This, who dispatched Olympiacos from Europe,
and today saw AC [.
It is that time of year again. Time to find out how players from the CONCACAF region are doing
in professional leagues across Europe. With more and more CONCACAF players heading to top leagues,
the competition in the region is only getting tougher, and it is getting even more important to
keep track of how potential U.
Nathan Burns has signed for AEK Athens. Thank god it wasn't Norwegian side Brann Bergen and of course his mate Bruce Djite has aready gone to Turkey.
Good moves for our best young talent. They stayed in Australia, impresssed in the A-League, shone at times in the Asian Champions League and played a key role in getting the Olyroos to the Olympics.
AEK have signed 31 year old Swedish center back Daniel Majstorovic for three years.
Majstorovic's previous team was FC Basel in Switzerland where he scored 23 goals in 85 appearances.
His average is 1 goal every 7 games. He turned down offers from Lazio.
Most of Mexico's offseason moves are limited to one day, draft day.
Now, the Mexican "draft" is not a draft like in MLS or other American leagues. The
Mexican draft is really more like a swap meet or a rummage sale, where teams pass players off to
fellow teams via loans or outright transfers.
How's this for advance notice? The Herald Sun today suggests that the Melbourne Victory's maiden
game at the new stadium (currently being built) will be a friendly against a Greek team, most
likely AEK Athens. There have also been talks with Olympiacos and Panathinaikos. As the piece
points out, the Socceroos friendly with Greece prior to the World Cup [.

It wasn't a great international window for the Jamaican national team, what with two World Cup
qualifying losses and the firing of head coach Rene Simoes, but at least one Jamaican player
rebounded well from the disappointment.
Marlon King delivered two goals in Hull's 2-1 win vs.
We face Atromitos this Saturday, probably without Dellas, Papastathopoulos and Blanco. This is
not good. There is a slight chance Papastathopoulos might be back, but it's unlikely. These
three players account for half of our core team. It will be an ugly dogfight without them.
Ferrer will have to put a defensive midfielder like Nsaliwa [.
