Continuing our build up to the World Cup 2010, each month we are bringing you a top ten list
provided by the team over at World Cup Odds. This month the topic is World Cup villains, and we
have selected five choices from the World Cup Odds voting to highlight.

Middlesbrough striker, aged 25, was taken to a police station after getting into an altercation
with uniformed officers on a night out in Newcastle.
Liverpool exec. Tom Hicks Jr. was forced to resign after sending some nasty, expletive-laden emails
to a fan.

journalist.

Galaxy, and he is pretty good at pointing the finger at everyone else.
