A imprensa britânica não deixa passar. Mascherano foi expulso no primeiro tempo por reclamação no clássico em que o Liverpool apanhou do (campeão?) Manchester United por 3 x 0.

O The Sun, sem meias palavras, emplacou na sua capa o que todo torcedor do Reds queria dizer ao argentino: 'O homem mais burro do Planeta'. Mad Masch, como foi chamado, deve ter sentido falta do 'escoteiro' Ole da Argentina neste momento.

OleOle was in the Brazil National Team practice today in Puerto La Cruz. The first change coach Dunga made in the team was Anderson for Diego after the game against Mexico, when Brazil lost 2-0.

The boy, that recently moved from Porto to Mancheser United, came into the first game in the second half against Mexico and Brazil were a way better.

Brazil had several chances to score in the second half, but the mexican keeper Uchoa was in a great evening.

Anderson should be a starter next Sunday against Chile, a key match to Brazil in the tournament. Always saving words in interviews, the wonder boy said to OleOle before the practice: "If we are talking about last game's mistakes, we wil be here forever. Let's focus on the next one", he said, before even know he would be a starter.

The game against Chile will be next Sunday. Tomorrow, Brazil will have another trainning section and Anderson may be confirmed as a starter in the team.

He was celebrated as the best player in the world for many people (even me). But the season comes to an end and the Portuguese international was a shame in those, so called, major games. 

He was awful in the Champions League semifinal and useless this Saturday in the FA Cup final. He was the MVP of the Premiership, but mostly for his appearances in the beginning of the year. 

Cristiano is still young. But he definitely needs to show more game in the big events.

Just a quick question for you guys. Is it just my impression or Carrick is a much better player when Scholes is not around? Against Rome it was not the first time that I noticed that, but without Scholes, he looks free to start the plays from midfield and also be in front.

His two goals yesterday were amazing. But I keep thinking next game, when Scholes is back, Carrick comes back to his supporting position and maybe, even Scholes is obviuosly important, Manutd can loose some of the brillant action from yesterday.

Os dois estão na mira de Real Madrid e Barcelona respectivamente. Ronaldo já tem até especial com sua história na capa do Marca de hoje, lembrando episódio de que foi vendido por 25 mil euros com apenas 11 anos do Nacional da Ilha da Madeira para o Sporting. E dá uma olhada na marra e na correntinha no pescoço naquela idade!

Enquanto o Real deve abrir os cofres para ter Cristiano Ronaldo (já se fala em algo como 80 milhões de euros), Robben poderia se valer de uma cláusula Fifa e ir por meros 6 milhões ao Barcelona. Praticamente de graça!

A propósito, Cristiano Ronaldo tem 22 anos e Robben, 23.
