Finishing up our "what did we miss out on?" series today:
FELIPE MELO Arsenal were probably linked with Felipe Melo this summer more than
any other player. The biggest difference between Arsenal's 2007-2008 season and our 2008-2009

A double international milestone was reached this past weekend, when both Italy's Gigi Buffon
and Spain's Iker Casillas made their 100th international appearances on the same day. Nice little
co-incidence as they are arguably (or maybe inarguably) the two best keepers in the world
today.
Let me tell you what this is not: This is not a Buffon vs Casillas "who's better?

In football attacking players often get most of the praise when their team is achieving results
while players in other positions are often overlooked. Defenders are typically ignored when
accolades and awards are given out, yet it would be wrong to underestimate the contribution and
influence of key defensive players such as Italy's Paolo Maldini or France's Lilian Thuram, just
to name a couple of outstanding talents.

Fairly good week for goals, as only one game finished 0-0 (Catania-Napoli, but ask Takayuki
Morimoto about that). The top scorer table is still wide open, as Di Natale started strong but now
has cooled off so he remains at 9, while Hamsik is second with 7 and that's impressive for a
midfielder.

Milan has really jumped up the table these past few weeks. After the horrible start where
everyone condemned the Rossoneri to a season of misery, Leonardo's squad has made a complete
turnaround, finally playing well and becoming contenders once again. They now find themselves 5
points behind leaders Inter and only 2 behind Juventus and saying the word Scudetto shouldn't be
met with laughter.

It all started on September 19th in the year 2000. David Trezeguet, a high profile 40 billion
lira signing from the then French champions AS Monaco, scored his first goal for Juventus an 83rd
minute winner against Panathinaikos in the Champions League.
Nine years later, the 32-year-old Frenchman, who spent his formative years in Argentina watching
his father finish his own playing career, celebrated his 167th goal for the Bianconeri, making him
the most prolific foreign goalscorer in the club's history.
