I see “the next Maradona” Saviola has joined Olympiakos.
There have been some more of them.
- Ortega
- Riquelme
I am not aware of any of them having taken drugs.

Tevez at one stage when he was with Boca and called Carlitos.
Gonalons and Jackson Martinez now been linked. Don’t think they will go for Martinez as they already have Pandev and Higuain for that role and he’d cost far too much. Gonalons is a good player from what I have seen of him.
They could probably do with trying to offload a couple of the fringe players now - Gargano, Caliao, Dossena, Fernandez, Uvini, Mesto and Donadel are some of the players who wouldn’t seem to have much of a future there.

Ortega is an alocholic anyway.
Not performance enhancing.
“@tancredipalmeri: Benitez to Sky Italy: “I have received more questions about tactics in 20 minutes here, than in 1 year in England””
It is if he’s trying to improve his drink driving.

Ah Riquelme was class to be fair-was he ever hailed as the next Maradona?
Pretty sure he was, but he was differently class alright, lazy as sin, but just a genius. Poor ol Ortega, never happened for him.
Norwich have agreed a fee for celtics Gary hooper 
Players don’t have anything to do with agreeing the fee. That is agreed between the clubs.
Or in Everton’s case it’s agreed with their bankers.
Sorry,left out agent…you cunt
Read the tale of the Turkish fans smuggling in the “Coward Hen Ortega” (written in Spanish) sign into the away section during a derby and you’ll see why. He was a broken man after that, by all accounts.

Cheers for that. The Turkish story is a bit nasty alright. I wonder where he is now?
On another note, Marcela Mora y Araujo, love her name, love her voice, sadly, thats where it ends.
Veratti being linked to Napoli now. He would be another good signing for them.

She seems to have disappeared from the Guardian anyway. She did indeed have a very lovely voice. Can you imagine listening to her and Jimbo having a post-coital cigarette and chat? It’d be something to hear.

An incredible amount of money for someone yet to prove himself on the big satge.
Real Madrid have made a world record bid of over £85m to Tottenham for Gareth Bale, Sky Sports understands.
The bid has been on the table for over a week and Bale is aware of it and is becoming more frustrated with the situation.
The bid does not include any Real Madrid players moving to Spurs as part of a package.
Sky Sports understands Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is currently in Miami and that the club’s stance - that the Wales international is not for sale - has not changed.
Bale has so far kept his feelings to himself, making no public declaration about what he wants to happen next.
Tottenham and Bale are back from the Asia Trophy and will resume training on Wednesday.
Very true, farmerinthecity. I was actually at a meeting earlier with a few Spanish bankers and the question on all their lips was:
“Yeah, but can he do it on a hot, humid and sultry Wednesday evening in Bilbao?”
I think he can but the fee is absolutely mindblowing.
