Ladies & gentlemen, Juventus is IN. As in saying "the Doctor is IN", only in a football
team context. Just a few days before their important reconciliation with Champions League (FC Zenit

of saying: "Bring it on Europe, we're [.

Hello all Russia fans. I would just like to share some thought on a piece of news I received a bit
late. I just recently heard that Pavel Pogrebnyak has transfered from FC Zenit St. Petersburg to
VfB Stuttgart. I think that this is a major move in his career
When he watches football... he likely doesn't watch Chivas USAWhile we are no fans
of changing team identities unless absolutely necessary (i.e. Sporting Kansas) sometimes you just
have to admit things are stuck in the Roller Hockey era and need a different approach (i.e. Crew,
Revolution, Rapids, Impact) While not lumbered with a 90's Nike-infused identity, Chivas USA were
branded in a way that alienates Los Angeles football fans who have a built-in hatred for The Goats'
parent club Chivas Guadalajara.
Put that in your Tony Pulis and smoke it!
Regular Yorkies readers will know that the word "Panama" has appeared far too often over the last
few days here. So no more - not even parts of the word! On to a different topic!
In 2015, The Golden Horseshoe area will host the Pan-American Games (wait.
Blessed are the Cheese-makers! At least in Quebecois football circles. Oui, as we all know by now,
Joey Saputo has managed to bring Major League Soccer to Montreal for 2012. The jump up to the top
league presents such a grand opportunity for the Saputos to start their new major club off properly
- most pressingly with a new name.
Liverpool is set to go up against Juventus in the battle to sign Portuguese international
centre-back Bruno Alves, playing with with Zenit Saint-Petersbourg.
It has been reported that the 29 year old was Juventus bound, however it now appears, according to

I think I am one of the few people in the blog/media realm that seems to enjoy the Europa League
(formerly UEFA Cup). I've always looked at it as a great way to get more cultured in European
football and see some of the up and coming stars before the big clubs swoop in for them. That said,
this competition can be quite long to follow, especially if you try and follow the qualifiers.

Three years after CSKA Moscow's victory against Sporting, the UEFA Cup returns to Russia. To Saint
Petersburg to be precise and into the trophy room of FC Zenit, who will be adding their first
European cup to their club history record. At the City of Manchester stadium (home of Man City),
the club sponsored by [.
What a game of collective movement,one touch passing and a team speed that was too much for Rangers
but a joy to watch.I had heard Zenit destroyed Bayern.When i rationalised it i had assumed Bayern
laid down.Now i know Dick Advocaat destroyed Bayern and clinically they must have been amazing off
the counter attack.
Mano Menezes has thrown Hulk into Brazil's starting line-up against China. The FC Zenit forward
was impressive after coming off the bench last Friday to score the goal that spared Brazil's
blushes against South Africa. Leandrão Damião drops to the bench. Brazil struggled against a
South Africa side ranked 74th in the FIFA World rankings and were roundly booed in São Paulo.
ST PETERSBURG, Russia FC Zenit St Petersburg maintained their 100% Group G record and put RSC

against an Anderlecht team who prodded [.
While images and names flashed before my eyes as the final list of players to head for the
Covilhã training camp was announced it was obvious Carlos Queiroz would manage to pull a couple of
