Goodbye Becks?
It’s been all over the place: David Beckham will probably not be joining England in South Africa after injuring his Achilles tendon. AC Milan’s midfielder is now heading to Finalnd to take care of the situation but it is highly unlikely Becks will be able to join Fabio Capello’s team in June. The Three Lions [...]
Ronaldo to retire in 2011
Ronaldo, the orginal one, announced today he will retire on December 31st 2011. One of the best players to ever play the game of football, Ronaldo will definitely be missed by everyone.

Ronaldinho back to being amazing?
Seriously, I cannot believe this guy. Is the World Cup really the only thing that motivates him to do what he just did yesterday? Whatever it is… I like it. Watch below all the goals from AC Milan 4 – 0 Siena.

Dunga Calls Fabio Aurelio, Hulk and Michel Bastos
Dunga announced today the players who will play the last 2 matches of the year (against England and Oman). And he had a few surprises. Given that he decided not to call players from Brazilian clubs (and therefore was unable to call Adriano and Diego Tardelli), he called forward Hulk. But he wasn’t the only [...]
Yep, Becks is back to AC Milan.
As expected, David Beckham is done with the MLS for now (or is it forever?). The British beau is set to come back to AC Milan in January and although this is supposed to be another loan from LA Galaxy I find it hard to believe that he will go back to the States. AC [...]
