Let talk about Soccer

Serie A:

Apparently Kevin-Prince Boateng has promised to dress as icon MJ(yes thats Michael Jackson) and dance the "moonwalk" if AC Milan wins the Serie A title. I say he better get his dancing shoes ready since Milan is now 8 points ahead of the second team.

Napoli has joined Juventus in the man hunt to sign Andrea Pirlo(Milan) this summer. Its now a matter of who can afford to pay this 2006 world cup player. Milan have alot of expiring contracts coming up this June and if the bidding war doesn't start they could all be available for nothing by the end of the term - imagine? I'll buy them and start my own soccer team; SAHAR FC, featuring all the players no one wants...Side tracked, side tracked. Who's the highest paid player in Serie A you ask? Who else other than Zlatan Ibrahimovic - that makes him the 6th highest paid soccer player. No big deal. 

Lets talk about Paulo Henrique Ganso of Brazil who is speculated to come to AC Milan. Leonardo of Inter speaks with the midfielder on a regular basis - but thats not important because football agent Pasqualin is backing up the Serie A leaders. Who else wants Ganso? Who wants everything Milan has other than Chelsea? Yeah, you guessed it, it is Chelsea. First with former Milan coach Ancelloti, then they oggle at striker Pato and now they are interested in Ganso, the Brazilian International. However, Pasqualin has already noted that Ganso will join Milan, sorry Chelsea. 

Italian International coach Marcello Lippi may be expected to return to Juventus. He has been heard saying that if Juventus needs him then he will returning with his services. He has turned his back on all previous job offers by Juventus, but this time seems different. "never say never...I have said that i will no longer sit on italian benches if not for reasons of the heart and the heart leads to a club with whom i've had a special relationship," said Lippi. I usually don't like it when a man speaks so highly of his heart(which by the way, is just an organ) but for some reason its okay if Lippi says it. Probably because he's italian *insert winkey face here.*

Lets all take a moment and rejoice. Fernando Torres finally scored in his bright blue  Chelsea uniform in Saturdays game against West Ham. The blues came out of this game victorious as they won 3-0, Torres being the second goal at 84'. Malouda feels like Torres will start to score more goals now: "The first one is always important and you could see everyone was very happy, we did a big pile up on him and there was a lot of happiness," Malouda said. Chelsea is now behind Manchester United by 6 points and must win all of their remaining matches if they want any chance denying the Red Devil's(record breaking 19th championship).

After Arsenals defeat at Bolton Wanderers on Sunday, there has been some talk that their defensive line is lacking. Wegner, who has been criticised by Arsenal fans before for not signing a centre back in the January transfer window is most likely going to prioritize that position in the close season. Arsenal's foundation is based on alot of up and coming young strikers and a few midfielders, more money and time should be focused on the back end. Put a couple centre back in there and a new goalie and BAM you might have something magical. Maybe even a potential threat to other teams. That being said, I think we should take it easy on the old brit, hes totally taking all the blame. Pictures of Wegner with his head buried in his hands in humility took over England after Sundays defeat: "If somebody is to blame, it's me. I pick the team. I choose the players," Wenger said. "I feel the players had an outstanding attitude this season. They are not to blame." I don't know about you but I feel sorry for the poor lad! I think I'll let his failure slide and give him a chance to redeem him self in the next transfer window. Or maybe its going to be Adios Wegner? Imagine he got the boot... 

Chelsea's owner Roman Abramovich has been put under the lime light and is expected to make big big changes this summer after a dismal season. Its been speculated that anybody could be in danger, classics like Drogba, Terry, Lampard, Cole, Malouda, and Anelka could all get the cut; the zip; the zap; the slap in the face; the see you later stranger; the we don't need you amigo -- Okay, too far. This news is scaring most if not all Chelsea fans but do not worry you Blues(if I was green I would die, if I was green I would die), the departure of such players will lead to the potential signing of Neymar, Lukaku, Van der Wiel and Aguero. 

Looks like I can't sweep Seedorf off his feet and put him on Sahar FC after all. It has been rumoured that Manchester city has been tickling the midfielders fancy. Even so, Seedorfs loyalties lie within the Scudetto and he's not making any decisions until he hears word from Milan. 

Champions League:

Manchester United defeated Germany's Schalke 2-0 on Tuesday. It was one of those Rooney passes to Giggs and Giggs scores kind of thing which was then followed by an assist by Hernandez and a goal by Rooney. 

Wednesday April 27th: Real Madrid versus Barcelona

Predictions - Real Madrid will win in aggregate against Barcelona and will end up playing Manchester United who will play as hard as they can. It will be an intense and glorious match; especially when Red Devil fans unite all around the world in harmony for their Champions league win. 
Dont hate on my prediction ladies and gents, it is what it is.

Alright dominions, 

I will brush up on Spanish league Manana. 

STAY TUNED FOR HOCKEY TALK!
