Neymar has done it again, outra vez. Following a hat-trick against China, the superstar returned home in prolific form to score another golaço against Flamengo. Last year the striker was awarded the FIFA Puskas Award for scoring the best goal in the world, anunforgettablesolo magical runagainstFlamengo.
Less then a week after leaving Flamengo and suing his former club for unpaid wages, Ronaldinho
has found a new team. No, he won't be coming to MLS just yet. He will be staying in Brazil for
now.
Ronaldinho signed with Atletico Mineiro on Monday, inking a short-term deal for the rest of the
year.
Neil Custis, who covers Manchester United for The Sun newspaper, wrote this morning  that
Man United made a £38m deadline day attempt last week to land Brazil superstar Neymar.
The club record bid failed when the 20-year future superstar said he wanted to stay in Brazil
until after his country had hosted the 2014 World Cup.

With less than a week remaining in the transfer window, Tottenham are expected to be one of the
main clubs eager to bring in a new face or two before the opportunity ends. Andre Villas-Boas faces
the prospect of losing star playmaker Luka Modric to Real Madrid, and is eager to add a creative
midfielder to his repertoire, with one name in the mix Brazil international Willian.

Ever since he was spotted alongside David Beckham at an LA Galaxy match a few weeks ago at The
Home Depot Center, rumors have swirled that Chelsea and England star Frank Lampard was heading toÂ
Major League Soccer.
After the match against PSG Â in New York last night, Lampard was asked whether the rumors of a
move to Los Angeles were true.
Reported Arsenal target Alan Dzagoev has alerted his potential
suitors by confessing that he might want to leave his current club CSKA Moscow
when his contract with them expires at the end of the year.
Manchester United have reportedly agreed a deal to beat Liverpool to the signing of young English
superstar Nick Powell in a deal worth £4million.
Sir Alex Ferguson has finally succeeded after trying to put together a deal to bring the Crewe
Alexandra youngster to Old Trafford for a number of weeks, according to the Daily Mail.
One of the biggest transfer stories of the summer has been the potential move of FC Porto
superstar Hulk. The Brazilian striker has been strongly linked with a blockbuster deal to Champions
League winners Chelsea, and as the summer wears on the rumors are gaining more and more
momentum.
Now, Chelsea midfielder Ramires has even publicly discussed the rumors, putting added pressure
on Roman Abramovich to front the money needed to secure the signing of the attacking
powerhouse.
Former Bolton superstar Jay Jay Okocha has publicly slammed the ownership group behind Bolton
Wanderers following the club's relegation from the Premier League.

WENGER WONT RUSH WILSHERE by AH Wenger today re-affirmed that Arsenal's midfield superstar Jack
Wilshere will not be rushed back to match fitness. The Englishman has been out for almost an entire
year now since he came off in the early stages of a match in last season's Emirates Cup. Wenger
told Arsenal.
Manchester City look a good team to me, but not as good a team as they should be. Carlos Tevez
could have had this league sewn up some time ago, and the fact that they needed the 95th minute of
the last game of the season suggests some under-achievement. They'll win the next few though I
imagine.

While in Los Angeles, the Real Madrid superstar sat down with ESPN's Frank Leboeuf to talk about
'that' penalty shootout against Spain at Euro 2012 as well as his candidacy for this year's Ballon
D'Or. Here are some of the excerpts from that interview:
So much for Cristiano Ronaldo disappearing in big tournaments.
The Real Madrid superstar scored his third goal of the tournament as Portugal booked the first
place in the semifinals with a 1-0 win over the Czech Republic. Ronaldo found space inside the box
with just over 10 minutes left in the game and sent Joao Moutinho's cross rocketing off the turf
and into the roof of the net.
England captain Steven Gerrard and manager Roy Hodgson have both spoken with excitement about
the return of Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney into the Three Lions' starting line-up for
today's Group D match against Ukraine.
A defeat to co-hosts Ukraine would spell elimination for England tomorrow and hence, pressure is
on Hodgson to pick the best possible starting XI for the decisive fixture.
In the battle of superstar Milan strikers past and present, the old master Andrei Shevchenko
defenitely came out on top against his Swedish counterpart, Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Bagging a superb
brace in front of the Kiev crowd will surely go down as a career highlight for the veteran
Shevchenko who showed that speed of thought can be just as deadly as speed of body.
Steven Gerrard has worn the England armband on numerous occasions, but he will head into Euro 2012
believing, for the first time, he has the authority of a captain.
I know how thrilled he was to receive the phone call from Roy Hodgson confirming he was the choice
to lead his country. I also know how desperately disappointed he felt when the caretaker manager,
Stuart Pearce, decided he would not be given the captaincy in the England friendly with Holland.

Andriy Arshavin is busy thumbing his nose at Wenger and going n-yah n-yah. The little Russian

Arsene Wenger can chalk him up as a possible replacement to Robin Van Persie should he leave?

The LA Galaxy are on a roll and one of the keys to their recent run of outstanding form has been
the play of David Beckham.
The English superstar was at his signature best this past week, helping the Galaxy earn four
points from two matches by delivering a goal and three assists.
A few moves over all including a couple teams moving up tiers and one moving down to the bottom.
I still view the third tier as a total crap shoot you can move anyone around that group and be
fine.
Here in the next few weeks we should definitely see how the playoff race impacts these
rankings.
Maybe it's not quite as desirable as some other, less glamorous jobsTake, for example, working
