27.01.2012 - "Estoy feliz, visto todo lo que ha ocurrido. Al final ha llegado el premio de poder entrar en este gran equipo", dijo Maxi López ni bien firmó contrato con el Milan. Entonces, Carlitos Tévez se enteraba de que (muy probablemente) debería quedarse otros cinco meses en el infierno de Manchester (City).

Dias anteriores,vimos fallas increíbles, apenas inicia el año y siguen apareciendo señales del fin del mundo. Ya en serio, vaya manera de fallar y pensar que todavia les pagan bastante por algo así.

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva has successfully undergone surgery on the anterior cruciate ligament injury that prematurely ended the Brazilian international's season.
Lucas was stretchered off during Liverpool's 2-0 Carling Cup quarter final win over Chelsea last month, with scans confirming earlier fears that the former Gremio midfielder would require surgery on his damaged knee.

Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes the Reds have lost their 'best player' after midfielder Lucas was ruled out for the season.

Brazilian midfielder Lucas Leiva is yet another example of a talented player who was unfairly criticised by the kind of dim football fan who has no mind of his or her own. England fans' treatment of Owen Hargreaves followed a similar path to that of Lucas, but sadly it now seems that the Brazilian has something else in common with the injury-plagued Manchester City man.

The first professional club of Ronaldinho, Grêmio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense, usually referred to as simply Gremio, is a Brazilian professional soccer team based in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. Gremio is currently in 11th place in the 2011 Campeonato Brasileiro Série A table with two matches to play.

Since Anderson Luis de Abreu Oliveira joined Manchester United from Porto back in 2007 the Old Trafford faithful have been split over the midfielder's influence, importance and ability to be included in Sir Alex Ferguson's first team. Gifted? Yes. Committed? One thinks so. Frustrating? Also at times yes.

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva has reportedly become a transfer target for Bayern Munich.
Bayern head coach Jupp Heynches is thought to be drawing up a list of potential recruits for both the winter transfer window and the end of the season, and according to Insidefutbol.com, Lucas is high on that wishlist.

Liverpool midfielder Lucas Leiva has defended new signing Jordan Henderson and urged critics of the England Under-21 international to be patient.
Henderson has started seven of eight matches this season, only sitting out last week's League Cup win at Brighton, but has struggled to impress despite scoring against Bolton last month.

Dener Augusto de Sousa was a very talented Brazilian player that disappeared without getting a lot of attention globally. In 1994, and just before the World Cup, his career, and even his whole life came into halt. He died in a car accident while driving his fast car.
He was a center-forward, and before turning 20, he played his only international games vs.

Los regresos de Ronaldinho (Flamengo), Luis Fabiano (San Pablo), Gilberto Silva (Gremio), Alex (Corinthians), Mancini (Atlético Mineiro), Elano (Santos), Fred y Deco (Fluminense), Rafael Sobis (Inter), Juninho Pernambucano (Vasco da Gama) y Rivaldo (San Pablo), entre otros, así lo indican.

Los números pueden estremecer: u$s 6000 millones (de inversión) son insuficientes para la dimensión de las necesidades mundialistas. Si bien la economía brasileña viene creciendo al 7% anual y la pobreza (también) sigue arraigada, el gigante latinoamericano está lanzado a un posicionamiento global y el Brasileirao sintonizó los efectos.

Pumas UNAM is in solid position to capture its seventh league title after earning a hard-fought 1-1 draw in the first leg of the Mexican Clausura final against Morelia Thursday night.

Francisco Palencia gave Pumas the lead with 69th-minute strike with a blast from outside the area to quite the home crow.

Campeonato Brasileiro 2011 A comprehensive guide is a post from: Just Football

by Rodrigo Beilfuss

As most major football leagues in Europe approach their season finale the Brazilian league rises in the horizon, and for that there's plenty of reason to smile.

I'm here to tell you why.

Note: There is a print link embedded within this post, please visit this post to print it. | Subscribe: Predictions

It's the business end of the season in many of the top European leagues and we feature some of the big games from the foot of the table in England, the top in France, as well as Cup finals from Scotland and Germany.

Brazilian midfielder Lucas Leiva has put an end to any doubts over his Liverpool future by signing a new, long-term contract that will keep him at Anfield until 2015.
The 24 year-old has emerged over the last two years as one of the club's most improved players and the club's newly-appointed director of football, Damien Comolli, revealed that tying him to a long-term deal was a priority after his arrival on Merseyside last year.

Lucas Leiva has committed his future to Liverpool and hopes to extend his contract with the Merseysiders which expires next year.
The midfielder also wants to re-establish the club in the top four of the Premier League and bring back the glory days of 2005 when the Reds claimed the Champions League.

Liverpool are one of the clubs interested in signing Douglas Costa, according to teammate Darijo Srna.
The 20-year-old's reputation has continued to grow during his time with Shakhtar Donetsk in the Ukraine, with Liverpool one of a trio of Barclays Premier League sides taking an interest in the player.

FIFA World Cup™ winner Rai has backed fellow Brazilian Lucas to win over his critics at Liverpool. Midfielder Lucas has been a regular for the Reds since 2007 but often finds his ability questioned by fans and the media.
However, Liverpool managers Rafael Benitez, Roy Hodgson and now Kenny Dalglish all have shown enough faith in the former Gremio man to give him regular starts, and 1994 FIFA World Cup captain Rai believes he will eventually convince others of his ability.

Copa Libertadores 2011: The Story so far... is a post from: Just Football

One month into the 2011 Copa Libertadores South America's premier club competition and with most teams halfway through the group stages it is a perfect time to catch up on the story so far, writes Just Football debutant Ralph Hannah.

By NESTOR F. SEBASTIAN

After years of playing in Europe, veteran left-back Roberto Carlos probably forgot how intense Copa Libertadores competition can get on the field as well as off of it.

Two weeks ago, his Corinthians side was booted from the tournament by Colombia's Deportes Tolima in the preliminary stage, prompting death threats against him and his family, forcing him to leave his homeland once again to reportedly sign with Russia's Anzhi.

Kenny Dalglish has hailed Lucas Leiva for his transformation at Liverpool and says it is no surprise to see him playing the Dunga role for Brazil.
While Lucas, 24, has received the consistent backing of Liverpool managers, he has struggled to win over the fans since signing from Gremio in 2007.
However, his impressive performances over the last year have seen many supporters come around and, after he won his ninth cap for his country in the friendly against France this week, Dalglish feels he fully deserves international recognition.

El 1 de abril de 2009 fue la última vez que Luis Ernesto Pérez fue convocado a la Selección Mexicana, sí, hace casi dos años que Lucho no había sido considerado para representar al fútbol mexicano y que, obviamente, le impidió jugar su segundo mundial.

Lucho, con 30 años de edad, ya tiene una larga historia con el Tri.

Real Madrid's new loan signing Emmanuel Adebayor is hoping to make his Liga debut away to Osasuna on Sunday while La Liga leaders Barcelona could have full back Dani Alves back in time for the trip to Hercules on Saturday.

Alves is training again after recovering from a torn muscle while Barca captain Carles Puyol and winger Jeffren are doubts for the match against the only team to have beaten them in the league this season.

Another new incorporation to Spanish Football this time via VALENCIA CF with their "Winter Market" signing of Brazilian "Golden Boot" JONAS GONCALVEZ from GREMIO Jonas in action The 26 year old forward comes at a relative economical price of 1.2M€ & signs until 2015. The new player complements the Valencia CF forward line along with Aduriz & Soldado.

Anderson has claimed that he wants to see out most of his career at Manchester United before returning to his first club in Brazil, Gremio.

"I want to make history here," said Anderson. "I look at players like Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes and I want to do what they have done. I want to remain here until just before the end of my career.

Every few weeks, Manchester United will be linked with "the next *insert brilliant player's name here*" in the next transfer window. The deals never materialise and more often than not, the players never fulfil the potential.

The next Ronaldinho, Douglas Costas, was rumoured to be joining United from Gremio and caused a great deal of excitement amongst some reds.

The 30-year-old had also been linked with Gremio and Palmeiras as well as Blackburn Rovers but he ultimately chose to sign for the Rio de Janeiro-based side.

• A Norwegian tour. (The Best Eleven)
• Mustache of the day, no doubt. (Three Match Ban)
• One of the many things Twitter is killing. (They All Count)
• Saving the FA Cup.

Blackburn Rovers manager Steve Kean accepts that Ronaldinho transfer is unlikely. The headlines said it all as the football Gods opened up another period of intrigue and speculation that is commonly referred to as the January transfer window.

Alas, this was no ordinary story.

The Serie A will be resuming tomorrow, when a fresh slate of midweek games will be played. There are many interesting fixtures, but the one which I'm really looking forward to is Cagliari - AC Milan. AC Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri will be returning to his former club at the Stadio Sant'Elia, and he'll be bringing a slightly different side than usual with him.

Yesterday, I was browsing my iPhone and stumbled across the news that Blackburn, of all clubs, had put in an offer to sign Ronaldinho. I had to read it twice but low and behold, it's true! An initial £6.2m offer has been made to AC Milan with the fee rising over the 2nd and 3rd years if it is accepted.

Following our previous post on Ronaldinho's fate in Milan this season:

Milan coach Massimo Allegri has confirmed to Sky Sports Italia that the football superstar is set to leave for his former club Gremio this January:

"We are waiting for his departure to become official," Allegri told Sky Italia.
