Sem surpresa, Hulk foi considerado, pela maioria dos leitores que participaram na última
votação, o melhor jogador da liga portuguesa na época 2011/2012. Apesar de ter estado uns furos
abaixo do que produziu em 2010/2011, o avançado brasileiro foi decisivo na conquista de mais um
título pelo FC Porto, reunindo a preferência de 48 dos 103 participantes na votação que
encerrou ontem.

With Ashley Young consigned to the gym after picking up a bit of ouchie against Norway at the
weekend, the rest of the England squad (who welcomed the four Chelsea players given extra
post-Champions League final leave back into the fold; Lampard, Cole, Terry and Cahill) trained at
London Colney late yesterday afternoon in preparation for Saturday's pre-Euro 2012 friendly against
the big bad Belgians at Wembley, i.

Sin dudas que las tragamonedas han sido, este último tiempo, de los juegos mas populares que las
personas eligen al entrar a un casino. Esto se debe a que es ideal para aquellos que quieren
apostar un porción menor de dinero y no ir por las apuesta fuertes.
Los juegos de casino online tambien han acaparado la atención de los internautas y las visitas a
los mismos se han triplicado y cuadruplicado para transformarse en un boom.
Real Madrid celebrated their record 32nd La Liga title at Cibeles a day after beating Athletic
Bilbao to seal the title and two weeks after finally beating Barcelona in a league match under Jose
Mourinho. Madrid also set a new La Liga record for goals scored in a season (115). Given all that,
Mourinho decided to take the opportunity to respond to critics who say his team plays too defensive
and describe his style as "anti-football" compared to Barcelona's tiki-taka approach.
We have been down this path before. Remember last fall, when you generously agreed to kickstart
a little site known as The Classical? Since then, the site has rocked, gotten sponsors, and
produced some quality writing. Now, a promising North American soccer quarterly needs your
crowdsourced dollars.
Mike Woitalla of Soccer America writes of the continued boom in attendance for Major League Soccer
in 2012.
After 53 games in the first six weeks of MLS's 2012 season, the league has announced a total
attendance of 1,032,963 for an average of 19,490 per game. ... Kansas City and Philadelphia
announced standing-room-only crowds and Seattle welcomed 38,360 fans for its 1-0 win over
Colorado.

In which 20-year old, Bayern Munich-bound Swiss tyro Xherdan Shaqiri opens the scoring for FC
Basel in the fourth minute against Luzern in the Swiss Super League with an absolute stonker of a
scissor kick.
This is what €10 million gets you in Switzerland these days.
Melbourne Victory need an Aussie Coach.
Someone who understands Australia, our football history and our football present. Ernie Merrick was
a guy who understood Melbourne and Melbourne Victory he was an Aussie Coach in my book having lived
here for 20 years.
Just like I'm an Aussie Blogger.
Bavarian Football Works - Bayern Munich News and Commentary
Now that SB Nation has 19 MLS blogs and a strong EPL contingent, some La Liga and some Seria A
what's next?
Boom - Germany. Hey there Bayern Munich, nice to meet you.

Boom!
Mmmmmm'Vila
Seems like it's the day for it, with England rolling out their new home strip
for Euro 2012 this morning and Holland set to follow suit later tonight (we'll have photos as and
when). Sandwiched in the middle like a slice of jambon comes France's new away kit a classy,
all-white affair from top to bottom.

For reasons unbeknownst or cared about by anyone other than himself, Piers Morgan has continued
in his po-faced attempts to rile Gary Lineker using his entirely flaccid 'thorn in the side of
celebrity culture' Twitter mumblings and found himself, once again, subtly yet
completely and utterly owned by MoTD's velvety host.
In the immediate aftermath of Fabio Capello's resignation on Wednesday night, a number of
England players shared their views on the matter via Twitter. "Gutted Capello has quit. Good guy
and top coach. Got to be English to replace him. Harry Redknapp for me," said Wayne Rooney. These
comments were relayed to his former teammate and current ITV pundit Roy Keane, who promptly
eviscerated him.

Gary Lineker may himself exude a certain charm-free smugness but next to the high king of smug
gobshitery that is Piers Morgan, the Match Of The Day host is a crisp-promoting little sweetie
bum.
Morgan took on Lineker on Twitter today, as he continues to cultivate his contrived "Mr Nasty"
image.

If I was to tell you that FC Metalist full-back Cristian Villagra scored a direct free-kick from
70 yards against Dinamo Moscow yesterday, you'd probably be envisaging some kind of hit-and-hope
effort that gets carried the length of the pitch by the wind, hits a divot, bounces twice over a
stranded goalkeeper and nestles soundly in the back of the net.

Boom! Back in the saddle after a week in the wilderness (well, 'Scotland' to give it it's Latin
name) and a couple of brief flirtations with death on the rather blustery drive home in the wee
small hours of this morning. It's good to be home/alive.
After being cut off from the rest of civilisation for the past few days, I thought I'd kick-off
the new year with the only football-related thing I've been exposed to in 2012 this video of an
anonymous football fan, clearly irked by a shonky performance, attempting to take out his anger on
a stadium seat and losing out badly.
Aston Villa 1 – 2 Arsenal Match Report
1st half observations from a bad stream
The first 45 minutes were pretty different from what I expected. Aston Villa did not close us
down frantically and allowed Arsenal plenty of space. Especially Gervinho and Theo saw plenty of
the ball, as Villa sat deep in the beginning, allowing our wingers to attack them from the
sides.
It is the Barcelona and Spain team identity, "The Tiki Taka". It is what brought the World Cup and
Euro to Spain and the big boom for Barcelona since 2010.
Here is a wonderful video explaining its tactical concept:
Boom. Well, at least if Ching is gone, we have no doubt that Geoff Cameron is ready to step up
in to a team leadership role...not that we ever doubted that would happen anyway.
Well said Geoff. I believe this is what you might call a "verbal bitch slap".
- With the Manchester teams and Chelsea the next three fixtures, Demba Ba won't be celebrating
another hat trick anytime soon.
Not long ago, Newcastle United found itself relegated to the Championship and Mike Ashley
couldn't pay someone to take the team off his hands. (Ok, that's going a bit far.
Collar up Boom! Cristiano Ronaldo scores another awesome free-kick, hit with venom as Real
Madrid lead Lyon 1-0 in France.
Apesar de já ter sido chamado aos trabalhos da sua selecção por diversas vezes, Givanildo Vieira
de Souza parece que ainda continua a ser um desconhecido para muitos brasileiros. Quando foi
chamado pela primeira vez, este blog registou um "boom" de visitantes que queriam saber mais
informação sobre o avançado que o FC Porto foi "desencantar" no Japão.
Ryan Grant missed the Green Bay Packers run to the Super Bowl championship last season. For that
reason, he's looking to play as much as he can this year. Unfortunately, he suffered a bruised
kidney in Week 3.
Although Ryan Grant says he feels fine, it is expected that the Packers will hold out their
running back.

Not quite his finest work (more on that shortly), but Eran Zahavi certainly has an eye
for the spectacular marking his first league start for Palermo since joining from Hapoel Tel Aviv
over the summer with a pearler from the edge of the box with just 15 seconds on the clock.
Of all the topics upon which MLS fans love to bicker, nothing can touch the Playoffs. Some of us
hate the dependence on conferences, some of us hate the amount of clubs that are admitted in, and
some of us hate them all together. Me? I like the idea of a playoff, and I think the current model
is okay, but just okay.

A manilla envelope with a couple of snaps of Adidas' brand new, purple and acid green adiPower
Predators (a vivid colour scheme that started with the new Finale 11 matchball) has just fallen
through the letterbox at Pies Towers and, being the charitable chaps we are, we thought it was only
right to share.
Todo el mundo del fútbol, sin excepción, sigue hablando del ascenso del hijo de

Four more guys from Uruguay who Liverpool could sign
After signing Luis Suarez and Sebastian Coates, Liverpool are looking at more signings from
Uruguay. Here's guest writer Christopher Atkins to explain why the country is in a football boom
and which stars could be headed to Anfield next.
Nice blog post by Keyvan Heydari in the NY Times regarding the recent rise of Venezuela's men's
soccer team:
Economic policy was a cornerstone in this process. In the 1950s, as Chico Carrasquel
became the first of many Venezuelan shortstops in the major leagues, the president Marcos Pérez
Jiménez promoted highway and large infrastructure projects in Venezuela financed by the nation's
oil revenues.
Real talent.

- On the home continent. (AFR)
- No need to watch. (The Carvalho Peninsula)
- Just a great summer all around in LL. (La Liga Loca)
- Wayne Rooney's bike in animation. (EPL Talk)
- No boom here.
The only thing worse than a hangover is an angry hangover; the kind where you are just mad about
how you even got to be hungover in the first place. The booze may have worn off, but the emotions
remain. Stupid emotions. That's kind of where I've been at all day, just truly mad. As if the Gold
Cup loss to Mexico wasn't bad enough, we had to go and give away an early lead to the Sounders, who
then took us to school for about 70 minutes.

This is not a transaction that I sought or contemplated but, if it is the only route to
guarantee a future for Plymouth Argyle Football Club, it is a route that I am prepared to take.
After seven months of claiming that he was a mere consultant to Plymouth Argyle Football Club,
of claiming that he was talking to (you guessed it) anonymous wealthy businessmen that were
interested in pouring money into a League One (now League Two) club, then, a property company has
been announced as the preferred bidder for the assets of the administration-struck Plymouth Argyle
and that they, of all of the 6.
Boom. We missed a Monday, but we're back to makeup for it on Wednesday. A special midweek
recording of the show has Jason and Jared hitting RSL's disappointment and hangover, various MLS
topics including a riff on the waning of parity, Shea's cross goal, Mullan's suspension and the
problem with "fixing" the style of the league, and much more.
La cadena Cope cuenta con un nuevo fichaje que está revolucionando a la audiencia. No se trata ni
de Mister Y, ni Míster Z, ni de
Juanma Castaño, ni

incorporación estrella de 'Tiempo de Juego' es
Lorena González, una nueva redactora del

Sara Carbonero de la

By Puck Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome back into another Happy Hour. I don't know about you, but I

La revista Cuore destapa esta semana el antes y el después de las famosas tras pasar por el
quirófano y aumentarse la talla de pecho. Sara Carbonero e Irina Shayk son dos de
las protagonistas de este reportaje titulado: A lo hecho, pecho.
Uno de los aumentos de pecho más comentados ha sido el de la novia de Iker Casillas,
Sara Carbonero.
El Fenómeno
Jairzinho lo llevó al Cruzeiro para que diera sus primeros pasos. Mario Zagallo al Mundial del '94
sin jugar un solo minuto pero advirtiendo al mundo que los brasileños ya tenían su nueva joya. El
camino a Europa como para muchos fue el PSV, donde le dijo su amigo Romario que fuera, aquel que en
los años posteriores fue su socio para ser la pareja ofensiva más temida que se ha visto en la
televisión a color.
Mucho se ha hablado acerca de este tema, desde que Héctor Mancilla llegó al equipo vecino se
les ocurrió la grandiosa idea de compararlo con el rayado Humberto Suazo.
Ahora quiero expresar mi opinión acerca de este tema y de cada jugador. No tengo nada en contra
de Mancilla, delantero que ha resultado efectivo desde su paso por Toluca, pero jamás me gustará
su forma de juego, su estilo es el mismo; aún así ¿cómo se atreven a compararlo con
Humberto Suazo?
