Go Portugal.....................I`d say at least 3-0

Yeah but it`s an open draw and the fixtures are not selected. He makes it sound like it`s been happen for 20 years; when in fact Chelski haven`t been playing at this level very long at all.

Mourinho predicts fixture list
Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has cheekily forecast next season's fixture list in his 'crystal ball'.
Mourinho has a long-standing complaint that his Chelsea team get a raw deal when the fixtures come out.
He claims the Blues are handed away games after internationals and Champions League matches but rivals Arsenal get a home game.
Mourinho expects the same thing to happen when the Premier League reveal dates for the new season, next Thursday.
He predicts Chelsea's first game of the new season will be away because it comes after a midweek international.
Mourinho said: 'I think in England you say, `I have looked into my crystal ball'. So this is what I saw.
'For sure our first game will be away from home.
'After international matches, Arsenal always play at home, Manchester United and Liverpool are 50-50, Chelsea always away.
'So, with an international match on the 16th and the first Premier League game on the 19th, Chelsea will be away.
'Players will arrive back from their national teams on the 17th in the afternoon and we travel on the 18th to play away on the 19th.'
The Chelsea boss went on to claim his team will be asked to play away after all the Champions League dates.
Mourinho said: 'Last season was unbelievable. After the Champions League, Chelsea was nearly always away, especially after the group phase matches.
'There is protection to some clubs, nothing for others. I don't know the intention but I know the reality, it is impossible to deny it.
'Sometimes matches after Champions League can be on a Sunday or Monday to have one more day to rest. Never for us.
'I am here for the third year, I still don't know who is in control but for other teams it looks like perfect fixtures.'
At Christmas, the former Porto boss expects his champions to play twice in three days as others get extra rest.
Mourinho said: 'In the Christmas period, one day between matches.
'Again other teams have two days' rest between matches. But these situations make us stronger, because we know from the beginning, we are not in an easy position.
'Last game of the season, for sure away, two years running for us at Newcastle.
'Arsenal at home. Man United and Liverpool, we will see.'
To complete his tongue-in-cheek dig, Mourinho claimed Chelsea would be forgiven for their past indiscretions as they bid for a hat-trick of titles.
Mourinho said: 'Referees! Penalties! Red cards! Offsides! Suspensions! Charges!
'I prefer to leave these things in my memories and believe that, this season, we can get more respect and the tendency is an improvement.
'Everybody starts with a clean sheet. I always hope the Premiership gets better.
'We, Chelsea are here to help it. We want to play well and repeat our success.'

Pity that no girlies were involved.................
Dutch fans watch match in their underwear
BERLIN, June 17 (Reuters) - Hundreds of Dutch fans had to watch their team's 2-1 win over the Ivory Coast in their underwear in Stuttgart on Friday after stewards at entry points to the stadium rumbled an ambush marketing ploy.
The Netherlands supporters all turned up in garish orange lederhosen displaying the name of Dutch brewery Bavaria and were ordered to remove them by stewards before being allowed to enter the Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion.
They then went into the match and watched it in their underwear.
Anheuser Busch's Budweiser is the official beer for the tournament and world soccer's governing body fiercely protects its sponsors from brands which are not FIFA partners.
Markus Siegler, FIFA's director of communications, said at its daily media briefing on Saturday that the governing body was alert to the kind of 'ambush' marketing Bavaria had attempted.
'Of course, FIFA has no right to tell an individual fan what to wear at a match, but if thousands of people all turn up wearing the same thing to market a product and to be seen on TV screens then of course we would stop it.
'I don't know exactly about what happened in Stuttgart, but it seems like an organised attempt to conduct a mass ambush publicity campaign was taking place.'
Peer Swinkels of the Dutch brewery said it was 'absolutely ridiculous' and 'far too extreme' to order the fans to take off their lederhosen and said the brewery had complained to FIFA.
'I understand that FIFA has sponsors but you cannot tell people to strip off their lederhosen and force them to watch a game in their underpants. That is going too far.'
Most people had hopefully been wearing orange underwear, he added, denying that the trousers were an ambush and describing them instead as a Dutch nod to German culture.
Only men had been forced to strip according to his information, he added.

Does anybody else feel that too many yellow cards have been handed out at the WC. I think it`s been far too strict, takes all the grit out of it. Spoils the flow of the game. One keeper got a card for time wasting...........in the 50th minute!

I didn`t know the ins and outs of the Bent story. Bellamy is a boyhood Liverpool fan which might help explain his reluctance to play for Everton.

Ok, redshite this and redshite that, all bitterness and nastyness aside...............what do you think of this signing for 6mil?
I think it`s superb business.
Liverpool to sign Bellamy for £6m
Dominic Fifield
Saturday June 17, 2006
Guardian
Craig Bellamy will join Liverpool next week for £6m after Rafael Benítez chose to activate a get-out clause for that amount, due to expire at the end of the month, in the striker's contract with Blackburn Rovers.
The Wales international, a Liverpool supporter as a child, has proved a controversial figure in recent years, not least after his very public falling-out with the then Newcastle United manager Graeme Souness when he was at St James' Park. He will replace the outgoing Djibril Cissé at Anfield, as talks continue with Marseille to loan the injured France striker to the French club with a view to a permanent move.
Bellamy's desire to leave Ewood Park since his £5m purchase from Newcastle after a season of relative resurgence under his former Wales mentor Mark Hughes will disappoint Rovers, who had hoped to persuade the 26-year-old to remain in east Lancashire. But the clause in the striker's contract was due to expire at the end of June, after which Blackburn could have demanded a higher fee for their leading scorer from last season, with Liverpool finally choosing to make a move after months of deliberation.
The striker had made it clear he would favour joining Liverpool, who will offer him an immediate return to the Champions League, and Hughes was unable to persuade him otherwise. Even so, Benítez needed convincing that Bellamy, who scored 17 goals last season, was the right man to partner Peter Crouch on Merseyside.
Indeed, Benítez's initial plan was to pursue the Charlton Athletic striker Darren Bent. But once it became clear that Liverpool could not sell Cissé for about £8m - as had been hoped until he suffered a double fracture to his right leg in a friendly for France - those plans quickly shifted. Although Bent has enjoyed only one season in the Premiership, Bellamy actually represents a cheaper option in terms of his transfer fee and undoubtedly offers more proven pedigree.

I`d play "once a blue" for at least half the game becuase he needs match fitness. If he doesn`t play at least a full half of the next game he won`t be match fit in the next round, and not really much use. Same applies for Owen.

The only club that Heskey would be a good addition to is the Fall around like a pissed wanker club!!! Imagine anyone stupid enough to buy a player like that for 10 million!!!! Imagine a board releasing the funds to buy a player like that at that price!!!! Jesus they'd have to be mad and play in red and have a french manager
...................and win a treble with him, yeah that really would be mad alright!
-
Heskey is shite for a top flight club with serious ambitions, but for a mid table outfit like Wigan he a good addition to the squad.

Good team, but SerbiaM were utter shite. Atgentina are beatable and have yet to face a top team. I think Holland will beat them. They might have peaked too soon.

Fernando Torres could form a formidable strikeforce with Ruud van Nistelrooy and Wayne Rooney at Manchester United next season.
Reports indicate that Sir Alex Ferguson is closing in on a £25million deal for Spain international Torres, who will lead the attack for his country in Wednesday's World Cup Group H clash against Ukraine in Leipzig.
The Atletico Madrid striker, 22, weighed in with 13 goals in La Liga last season as the capital club finished 10th.
But he won numerous plaudits for his all-round displays and has leapt ahead of Raul in the national team's pecking order after scoring seven times in 11 World Cup qualifiers.
And instead of Torres replacing van Nistelrooy at Old Trafford, Ferguson is now keen to pair them together, with Rooney completing a fearsome attacking trio.
United know they need to match the firepower of Chelsea if they are to have any chance of wresting the Premiership crown back from Stamford Bridge.
And with Jose Mourinho able to call upon Andriy Shevchenko, Hernan Crespo and Didier Drogba, Ferguson is determined to assemble an equally robust set of strikers ahead of the 2006/7 campaign.
Real Madrid will get him.

Yes, this site was recommended to me by bluetex, who is a good friend of mine (despite being a blue), he was attracted by the "thinking evertonian" bit, which I admired until I read a few Reg Regan posts.

I get your point but compare them on the basis of who creates the most impact for club & country and who would be looked upon as the more important member of a squad and for me Cahill wins hands down every time!
Kewell has got a good shot and can pass the ball well but his injury problems & inconsistancy make him a liability. I never realy rated him at Leeds either he just scored a few fancy goals but if i remember rightly so did Mark Viduka and whats he done since? Sweet FA!!
I think Cahill is a good player and certainly has a lot of drive and passion, which I admit HK is short of. But I think HK is a more skillful player. Tbh, I don`t think there`s a big difference if you evaluate them on an overall basis.
-
If they both went up for sale tomorrow, its Cahill who would fetch the higher fee. Kewells on the way Down, Cahills on the way up.
I´d say if Cahill scores afew more he`s on the way out!

What`s wrong with what I said? it`s true! I glad you know where the sun comes from, and you`re sounding more pathetic by the minute. Support Chelski now do you? I`ve never denied being a red. Bellend
