Did anyone else notice that Kevin Prince-Boateng scored a hat-trick for Milan at the weekend? Hmm. That was an odd sentence. Equally puzzling were Harry Redknapp's claims that he'd definitely take Carlos Tevez on loan in January, if such an opportunity were to arise. I bet you would, sunbeam. The kicker for his current employers- and I'm sure they'll love this- is that they'd once again be required to foot a substantial amount of the Argentinean's running costs.

I've had a chance to play the Heineken Star Player game and although I was pretty abysmal at it, I thought it was a really good laugh. Proving to your mates that you've got the best footballing brain whilst watching a live game, instead of just shouting abuse at them down the pub seems more positive all around.
