que hay quienes dicen que a Javier Aguirre le quedo grande el Aleti, cuando fue el mejor
técnico que han tenido en años.

Aguero y Maxi Rodriguez entre otros, por que de un día a otro no puede cambiar de la nada para
golear a sus rivales.

What is a great match? There are two types that immediately come to mind – those in which two
great clubs face each other and those that are meaningful. If a match includes both types, all the

As far as matches between great clubs, those are coming from England and Spain, at least this week.
Enough of Real Madrid, its time to talk about ATLETICO DEMADRID :-)Seriously, there is news from
"AS" that the Madrid Club has its eyeson DEPORTIVO A CORUÑA 23 year old Brazilian left wing
defenderFELIPE LUIS. There are Clubs like FC Barcelona ( option to substituteSylvinho) & Juventus
who are also interested & the price of transferbeing talked about is around 15M€.
So just who is playing in the July 4 South American all-stars verses a Rest of the World team at
the exhibition game?
Even the game organizers are still trying to figure that one out it appears.
And it's not just Blanco who is either not coming or remains a question mark. For instance,
Brazilian great Roberto Carlos is still listed as participating on the Coliseum Web site as I write
this.

The UEFA Champions League Group draw has just been held inMonaco & it has put together some
