Another hat-trick for Berardi tonight against Fiorentina. He now has 16 for the season, although this is quite skewed as 10 goals have came in 3 games against Sampdoria, Milan and Fiorentina and there are also a few penalties in there. Rossi also scored his first goal since returning from injury tonight.
Will he change his name from Wilson to Giggs like Ryan did as a young lad?
Giggs was riding his mother as well?
[QUOTE=āFitzy, post: 940605, member: 236ā]Iāve mentioned him before on this thread, but Mathew Ryan looks like he has a number of larger european clubs interested in taking him from Club Brugge, currently second in the Juplier Pro League. 35 appearances for Brugge this season, including a 5 match clean sheet run. The former Central Coast Mariners keeper may well be the Socceroos first choice at the WC with Schwartzer retiring from international football. Hopefully the deluge of goals that Spain, Netherlands and Chile score against him will not dent his prospects. Heās an exceptionally nice young man, totally committed to what he does. Heād be a bargain buy for any team now.

Oh dear.
He was very good tonight for Chile
Youri Tielemans -Anderlecht midfield schemer, 17. Over 50 senior club appearances to date and a cert to make it at the highest level.
As a United fan, i follow the minors a good bit. Head and shoulders above everyone else, Tomothy Fosu Mensah is a majestic defensive mid who can also play Centre half.
15 year old Angel Gomes is the son of a former Portuguese pro. A fleet footed number 10 of slight stature, heās already made the bench for the minors a few times this year.
Not much happening at OT outside of those 2. Most of the english lads will end up in the championship or the gossip column in the Sun.
Massimo Luongo - 22 - Australian, plays for Swindon Town in League One, but not for much longer. Player of the tournament in the Asian Cup, scored a cracking goal in the final, attacking midfielder.
Go fuck yourself, Heāll be Liverpoolās goalie next season.
Max Meyer,19 year old Schalke midfielder. I daresay relatively known now, after putting the fear of god into the Madrid team whenever he had the ball today.
In his 3rd season with Schalke and already a full international, Max is another attacking mid in the Gotze mould, destined to end up at Bayern.
Fair play to me
i see the keeper fisty has been touting for a while has joined valencia
Yes pal, hence the bump.
Excellent news. Hopefully Gary Neville takes him under his wing. They can go running on the beach together.
Good shout, Rudi.
He had a great game against Roma tonight with two very good goals, certainly looks a player.
Again, bumped for @Fitzy

Ballon dāOr: Massimo Luongo joins Messi & Ronaldo on longlist?
What do Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Massimo Luongo all seemingly have in common?
Incredibly ex-Swindon Town and QPR midfielder Luongo has been named alongside four-time winner Messi and three-time winner Ronaldo on a 59-man longlist, apparently for the Ballon dāOr world footballer of the year award.
Ronaldo and Walesā Gareth Bale are two of seven Real Madrid players on the shortlist, according to Mundo Deportivo , while Barcelona also have seven nominees.
But Luongo, 23, is QPRās and the Championshipās sole representative after signing for the Hoops following their relegation from the Premier League last season.
And while Messi won the treble including the Champions League last season, Luongo was plying his trade in League One with Swindon.
But he did get his hands on some silverware, winning the Asian Cup with Australia and being named the tournamentās most valuable player.
Premier League new boys Bournemouth have on-loan Chelsea winger Christian Atsu on the list while Tottenhamās Harry Kane gets a nod for his 21 Premier League goals last season, as does his new South Korean team-mate Son Heung-Min.
Other notable names include Leicesterās new Japan international Shinji Okazaki, Swanseaās Andre Ayew and former Cardiff and Inter Milan midfielder Gary Medel .
Manchester City have the most players nominated from the Premier League with five while rivals Manchester United have three players on the list including Wayne Rooney .
Arsenal have David Ospina among their two nominees while Liverpoolās Philippe Coutinho is the sole representative from Merseyside.
The long list was to be officially released on 7 October, which would then be cut down to 23 and trimmed once again to a three-man shortlist before the winnersā ceremony in January.
BBC Sport asked Fifa to confirm or deny the accuracy of the leaked list, but they refused to comment.
One definite Irish and two with potential Grealish possibilities here
