Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is on a collision course with Denmark over the fitness of Daniel Agger.
The Reds centre half has managed just 68 minutes for the reserves this season so far, as he slowly returns from a back problem, but looks set to play for his country in two games over the next four days. Click to continue reading...

So, AEK has been on the news all day, and everyday, for the past few days. The reason why? It looks like two Cypriot investors (the identities have not yet been revealed) are going to invest a large sum of money. I can't remember the exact details but I believe one of the Cypriot investors will be investing seven million euros, another will invest two million, and the shareholders already with AEK will add another six million, meaning that overall, fifteen million euros will be invested into the team.

Well, it looks like everything is over with Leonardo for at least six months. Levadeiakos have said that he is an important member of the team (well that was kind of obvious) and AEK have released an official announcement on their site (although its in Greek) confirming that we have stopped trying to sign him.

Atletico Madrid have fined two of their players - and don't worry, it ain't homie Kun Aguero. You know he's capable of being suspended just for talking to Maradona on the phone. And the text messages they probably exchange.... let's not go there.

Anyway, the players who're in hot soup are Maniche and Seitaridis, seen 'celebrating' in the photo above.

If there has been one team in recent times that has shown that the age of the man-marker is not dead, it was the Greek side that carried off an extraordinary triumph at Euro 2004.
It was a triumph for underdog fanciers rather than lovers of the beautiful game, admittedly. Otto Rehhagel's men won few points for style, and indeed Paul Gardner, World Soccer's resident frother-at-the-mouth, has made the 2004 Greeks into the footballing devil incarnate, frequently using them as the topic of his monotonous tirades.

La más que probable llegada del verdiblanco a final de temporada propiciaría la salida del holandés,que automáticamente sería puesto en venta. La oferta que el Atlético de Madrid le haría al defensa andaluz rondaría el millón de euros. Juanito ya ha dicho muchas veces que está a gusto en el Betis y que si éste [.

                                                                                                                               The 08/09 Premier League season will start up this weekend and undoubtedly many of us will be keeping an eye out on that, in terms of build-up.

OUR FIRST PRE-SEASON WIN, albeit against a lower division team. In any case, it's all about building confidence and continuing to blend as a team. According to match reports, we played a stronger game in the second half... First half squad: Leo Franco; Seitaridis, Valera, Pablo, Pernía; Camacho; Miguel, Cléber, Reyes; Diego Costa & Luis García.

This may or may not be significant, but...according to AS, there was a heated argument between Simão and Seitaridis over a strong challenge by the Greek during a training session. Forlán, Miguel, & Cléber prevented the argument from escalating by pushing the two players away from each other. Predictably, the rumour is that Seitaridis is frustrated [.

Lots of players on international duty for EURO and WORLD CUP QUALIFIERS. Ujfaluši played a full 90 minutes for the Czech Republic's opening game against Switzerland. Simão played 83 minutes for Portugal against Turkey. Seitaridis & Heitinga have games this coming week. Speaking of Seitaridis, I do recall reading that the Greek might leave the club this summer.

The Greek National Team plays today in a friendly against Czech Republic to be played in Cyprus. King Otto's squad includes five new call-ups from the U-21 team, including AEK's own Sokratis Papastathopoulos: Rehhagel has promoted five rookies from the under-21 squad (Sokratis Papastathopoulos, Lazaros Christodoulopoulos, Christos Melissis, Avraam Papadopoulos and Grigorios Makos) but he will [.
