I've just watched Manchester United fight their way to a point in a typical early season battle at Stamford Bridge.

I suppose he was waiting until after he got back from vacation to have his ankle worked on. So now because of his tardiness, Ronaldo is expected to miss [. Click to continue reading...

Having lost Flamini to Milan and (most probably) Hleb to Barcelona, it leaves the midfield at The Emirates Stadium rather light. Therefore, Arsene Wenger has seen fit to move for a Portugese star, one who has been tracked by Manchester United, Juventus and AC Milan. Sporting Lisbon midfielder maestro Miguel Veloso has been tracked by a [. Click to continue reading...

...According to The Guardian - a pretty reliable source - who themselves quote Marca - a truly grubby source - and their interview with Cristiano Ronaldo's godfather, Fernao Sousa, who basically says that his godson should - and will - move to Real Madrid. Sousa said: "I believe that he has decided he is going [. Click to continue reading...

Kevin Thomson is fit for Rangers' UEFA Cup tie against Sporting Lisbon. I am so relieved because I thought he might be seriously injured. He took an awful clattering from Celtic's Georgios Samaras when he deliberately moved his leg to the side so that he could make minimal contact with the Celtic player before throwing [.

The people at Ask.com have brought us some interesting news!

It can't come as much of a surprise that Arsene Wenger, a man who despatches hordes of scouts to scour the continent for tall, fast, technically immaculate players - once ran the rule over a certain young Portuguese whipper-snapper named Christiano Ronaldo. Arsenal boss Wenger told the BBC's Jonathan Legard: "He was [. Click to continue reading...

After reading it I am convinced that all football fans are mentally unstable.... myself included!

Winner: Gareth Barry
In the shadow of a hobble-footed Steven Gerrard, the Aston Villa stepped up to set-up to goals and insure that England live to fight another day.

Loser: Portugal
With Christiano Ronaldo putting them up 2-1 in the 73rd minute, it looked as if the Portuguese were going to move into second in the group and cruise to qualification, but a 87th minute equalizer ruined their party. Click to continue reading...

Portugal vs Poland, Saturday, 1600 est
