    Milan eyes PSV Eindhoven goalie

    http://www.goal.com/en-US/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=689558

    Gomes is a good goalie. He was a key part in PSV's run last year in the Champions League. I hope Milan will get him.

    yeah he is supposed to be the prime candidate. But technically the federation has said that it is not a sure thing.

    I like it. Looking outside of the common Mexican ideas of playing the game. Something htat had to be done.

    Keegan warns Gunners off Martins

    http://msn.foxsports.com/soccer/story/8132746/Keegan-warns-Gunners-off-Martins

    Interesting note is that last off season Arsenal was rumored with the Newcastle hitman but failed to sign him.

    Little known fact: Obafemi Martins was almost shot in his home land in Africa a few years ago. He escaped alive and since then has not been to Africa. He is still scared for his family till this day as well for his own well being. He has questioned his desire to play for his home country in the World Cup and etc..

    I like the idea too, especially the bold part, but you know the local media around here, some are saying Eriksson doesn't know the mexican league enviroment, players, formations and thinks like that, some of them think that would be a mistake.

    I'd like to see him coaching Mexico why not. :yes:

    The thing with him is he knows how to deal with extreme expectations. People in England expected him to win the WC... I think McClaren has proved that that team is just not cut for that, he knows how to deal with a press that is even more annoying than the Mexican press.

    And you have to know that the Joserra group in ESPN and the Record group are going to devour it. Azteca and Televisa would be the more critical. But who listens to them anyways? And the fact that Compean is leading the job hunt, that means that they are to cut him slack because he is a Televisa man.

    They did mention Cruyff though... and that got me excited.

    According to to "Sport" Barcellona did accept the last offer from the ACMilan for Dinho, 25 mill euros.
    Dinho contract should be finalized at the beginning of next week.

    Alen just directed me to this thread. GLad to see there are so many soccer fans on the board.

    If Milan are buying Ronaldinho, Id be surprised if they kept Kaka as well. I can totally see him going to Chelsea with Drogba, Cech and/or Sheva going the other way.

    Another guy to keep an eye on is Karim Benzema from Lyon - the next great French striker. Its only a matter of time before one of the big clubs poach him away.

    Kaka will not be sold bro. He is the face of that club and will be for many years imo. Drogba has been sold to Milan already. Cech won't go going anywhere imo, hes a great keeper and they would be insane to let him go. Sheva is bound to be in a Milan kit, the question is just when?

    Yeah Benzema is a hell of a young player. I like him a lot. There was discussion earlier this year about him moving to a bigger club but than he squashed all of that. He stated he was going to stay at Lyon.

    Personally I hope that Ancellotti stays put with the ACMilan, in reference to the National team should not be an issue since Ancellotti more then once, declared that he's not interseted at this time.

    Amauri to Juventus, contract already in place, to be sign tomorrow.
    This is good for Juventus, Amauri hes really a nice player, the fact that ACMilan was not able to be in the Champions, did help Amauri to make the decision to go with Juve.

    Afterall Gattuso will remain with the ACMilan until 2011.
    Good news, Gattuso is a force and with the addition of Flamini the Milan should have a strong midfield.
    According to the Gazzetta.
