Ex-Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse has been targeted by racist morons on twitter after moving from Lazio to QPR. Cisse is the latest in a long-line of players to be bombarded with racist abuse on Twitter, a site that does absolutely nothing proactive to stop anonymous idiots from engaging in all kinds of online bullying and abuse.

Djibril Cisse scored the opener just 12 minutes into his QPR debut before Stephen Warnock put the ball into the back of his own net to give the away side a 2-0 lead at Villa Park, however goals from Darren Bent his 100th and Charles N'Zogbia ensured the points were shared.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has said that lukewarm nature of the recently concluded winter transfer window is a clear sign that European clubs are now unable to match their previously sky-high spending levels.

The veteran Gunners boss compared the business conducted in January 2012 to the spending frenzy that took place same time last year, when more than £100 million were splashed by Chelsea and Liverpool on the purchase of just a handful of players.

Former Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse has a knack of scoring debut goals, and he's off to a flying start at his new club QPR with an excellent first-half goal against Aston Villa.Cisse - aka 'Lord of the Manor of Frodsham', the title he held when he played for Liverpool - scored 24 goals in 79 appearances during his time at Anfield.

Queens Park Rangers have completed the signing of French striker Djibril Cisse whose crazy hairstyles are set to liven up the Premier League once again. It is fair to say that Djibril Cisse does not do ordinary. He plays with a lightening pace (albeit with a lack of elegance and control), he celebrates wildly, has [.

The transfer window for English club's slammed shut last night at 11pm, with Everton grabbing former midfielder Steven Pienaar from Tottenham on-loan on the final hour.
Harry Redknapp one of the shrewdest managers in the transfer market surprisingly signed injury prone Everton striker Louis Saha, also in the final hour after losing Roman Pavlychenko for £8m to Russian side Lokomotiv Moscow .

The winter transfer window across Europe closed on Tuesday, and a number of teams -- not the usual big-spenders -- that were scrambling to fill vacancies and address needs for the second half of their respective seasons were able to add some valuable pieces to the puzzle.

Queens Park Rangers fall into that category, adding firepower in the form of former Lazio striker Djibril Cisse and Fulham forward Bobby Zamora.

After acquiring Taye Taiwo from Ac Milan, Queens Park Rangers' continue to collect another ex-Serie A base player by completing the signing of Djibril Cisse from Lazio for a fee worth around 5 million Euro.

Cisse, who also had premiership experience with Liverpool few seasons ago, has already talked to the press about his arrival, revealing that coach Mark Hughes and the exciting project that QPR are creating attracted him.

There's a slim chance Carlos Tevez (in sparkier times above) will be joining Samuel Eto'o's Russian playground, Anzhi, before the transfer window closes at 12am tonight. But don't bank on it chicos! Milan, PSG and Inter all held discussions with him in the past months and everyone basically snapped their fingers and said "NO", except for Anzhi who're apparently willing to pay £15m for him.

Are your Louboutins hung by the chimney with care? Have you already gotten so wasted at your office holiday party that you've had to quit your job in shame? Have you opened all of the gifts with your name on them and then re-wrapped them so no one knows about it? Then you are ready for Christmas, dear Kickettes.

In the past, Lazio have always been lacking the final step to reach the "big" Serie A clubs. While the club has always been competitive under Claudio Lotito's control, they have never managed to push into the highest echelon of Italian football/soccer. Yet this season it seems that Lotito has created the perfect team.

I just bought an A4 print of a 1992-1994 Manchester United home kit Subbuteo player. I'm not a massive fan of Subbuteo, but there's something about the aesthetic of it all that pleases me on a very base level. So much so that having ordered the print I had to stop myself from going to Ebay and buying numerous teams decked out in classic United kits.

Mio dio, if the Lazio fans wanted to scare i Giallorossi (AS Roma) away in the derby last night, they certainly did with that intimidating eagle. Seriously, imagine waking up to THAT everyday!

Euro Qualifier on Friday.

Fifa.com has a post about Cisse and Gomis being called up as replacements to injured players who include:

Benzema;
Ribery; and
Sagna.

That's 3 starters, plus Abidal reportedly has "fitness concerns."

A penny isn't needed for our thoughts:

- White seems like an illogical choice for such an expansive garment.

- He should be banned from covering his tight torso like that.

- Samuel Eto'o, Djibril Cisse and Elen Rives are all tied up at one floor length dress apiece.

This week`s photo of the week is very meaningful one! The image comes after Cesena match and we can see Edy Reja and Djibril Cisse and little behind is Federico Marchetti. The photo would not have been as important as it is had it not been for the recent events from last Monday when Edy ...

Frustrated Forlan alongside triumphant Miccoli
The Serie A has been dominated by the two main Milanese clubs for a bit more than half a decade. While they have had some testing competition by the likes of Roma and Juventus, the past ten years have seen AC Milan or Inter Milan win the scudetto seven times.

With the UEFA Champions League group stages kicking off less than 48 hours, many of Europe's most distinguished clubs had one eye on the midweek and consequently, they were punished for not being fully focused on their league opponents.

It all started on Friday night with AC Milan dropping two points at home to Lazio in the Serie A's opening fixture of the season.

Champions AC Milan were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw by Lazio at the San Siro as the Serie A season kicked-off on Friday. The visitors raced into a two-goal lead after new summer singings Miroslav Klose and Djibril Cisse netted early for the visitors. Stunned, Massimo Allegri's men rallied back valiantly and reduced the [.

Miroslav Klose and Djibril Cisse started off their Serie A season with a bang by scoring against AC Milan before 20 minutes were up. However Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Antonio Cassano brought the home team level shortly after.

It's one of those mornings where you hold on to your morning cup of coffee and try to transition your mind to the work ahead. Not the easiest task after the latest weekend in Seattle Sounder-land. Two big let-downs this weekend. The first was a disappointing 0-0 tie against Chivas USA at the C-Link.

Attention Djibril Cisse! We regret to inform you that all of the credit points you earned by wearing a Jean Paul Gaultier skirt to a 'Men Of The Year' Awards ceremony earlier this year have now been revoked due to those appalling shoes. Unless you can confirm that you were indeed 'Dressed At Gunpoint' prior to arrival at Rome's Fiumicino Airport, in which case we may reconsider.

French international Djibril Cissé signed with Lazio today, citing racism as the main reason for his departure from Greece. Cissé is probably best known for his eccentric and creative hair styles, which include not only the hair atop his head but facial hair as well. From the neck up, the man appears to be dressed like a clown.

Things are getting busy for those who try to track Seattle Sounders transfer rumors. Most of the names attached are quite pricey, gunning for that final Designated Player slot, or at least a significant cap hit augmented with Allocation Dollars. The majority of players connected are of the attacking variety, which would fit a team need, but there of course is a keeper and even a centerback connected.

With his agents currently busy crossing the I's and dotting the T's over a move to Lazio, Djibril Cisse bidded?, biddeded?, bade Panathinaikos farewell said goodbye to Panathinaikos in customary fashion by getting on the mike at a local nightclub and telling everybody present that he'll love them forever and ever, before welling up as the crowd erupted into chants of 'Djibril Cisse!

Ex-Liverpool striker Djibril Cisse took the mic in a nightclub for an emotional goodbye to the fans of Panathanaikos. The France international is expected to finalise a switch to Serie A side Lazio very shortly and, in the absence of any fixtures, seemingly decided the club was his best chance of addressing as many supporters [.

On July 15th the summer transfer window for MLS officially opens. Like many of you I've been watching rumors of possible and not-so-possible designated players (DPs) like Djibril Cisse and Diego Forlán. It's also made me think about DPs around the league and which strategies for using DPs have been successful (and which haven't).

Djibril Cisse's two goals against AEK secured Panathinaikos the second Champions League spot

Panathinaikos have won the end of season play-offs, which determine who will be the second team to represent Greece in next season's UEFA Champions League, having defeated AEK Athens by two goals to nil in tonight's match.
