Re: Association Football

Cerci been linked with a few Prem clubs for last couple of seasons. I dont really follow Italian football too closely so can't really comment.

Sanchez would be a great signing for Roma. Seems he isn't getting a look in at Barca with Neymar, Pedro etc. Also they've recalled Deloufeu for next season from Everton.

Bojan coming back too.

Re: Association Football

Quite happy for Wenger to spend shedloads of money in positions they don't need like they did with Ozil.

Fabregas might be available...

This World Cup and FFP has made this summer a lot more interesting.

Re: Association Football

rly interesting article bout suarez. prob only appeals to ppl that like him but its interesting af anyway imo

http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/stor...autiful-player

this bit >>>

Then, when he was 15, he met a girl.

Her name was Sofia Balbi. She had blond hair and fair skin. Luis worked as a street sweeper, and during his shift he picked up coins so he could take her out. Her family lived a comfortable life, and they let Luis into their home. He ate regular meals at Sofia's. She told him his poor grades came from laziness and not stupidity, and she demanded he work harder. In her family, he found the thing he'd never had before, a sense of belonging, of safety.

"They sheltered him," Cardacio says.

In 2003, Sofia's family moved to Spain.

Luis sank into a dark place. He had lost his new family, lost his soulmate and his muse. His work habits slipped. Years later, his rise to the Premier League seems inevitable. It wasn't. The reason Suarez became a great player is that he loved Sofia. She lived in Europe, and he lived in South America, and he could clean streets for the rest of his life and not afford a plane ticket. So his young lovesick mind concocted a completely irrational plan, typical of the teenage boy species: He would dedicate himself to soccer, working hard and endlessly, and he'd get good enough to earn a position on a European team, and the team would fly him across the ocean to his Sofia. Nuts, right?

It worked. In 2006, Suarez found a small first division Dutch team that was willing to give him a chance, and then he became a star, moving up to Ajax, then to Liverpool. He married that blond-haired girl in 2009, and they have two children. Any visitor to his house is likely to open the door to find the usual scene: Luis laughing and happy, kids crawling all over him. He loves his family, and soccer gave it to him, and guarantees no Suarez will ever again pick up coins while cleaning the streets.
