Bombastic. Now Boca, Sao Paulo and Inter are the favorites to win the title. Watch a Palacio + Riquelme partnership will be amazing.

and Santos, Sheva. don't forget Santos.

Luxemburgo is making them play as they should.

Kléber Santana, Kléber (the great left-back who never misses a cross), and Zé Roberto are playing too well.

and the promise Alexandre Pato will be staring for Inter. I feel this guy has a great future.

I think the title will go to one of those four: Boca, São Paulo, Inter or Santos.

Good call Todo! I forgot about Santos. If Cruzeiro were playing Copa Libertadores, they'd be one of my favorites to the title as well. This could be Cruzeiro's year. Vamos Cienciano Campeón!!!

Oh we're gonna get Boca Juniors good in Cuzco! Vamos Cienciano Campeón!

Wow, definitely going to be watching more Boca games now.

Uh mate, Villarreal have already been playing most of the season without him due to problems with the board and coach! There's no point him staying there and wasting his career.

I know mate, but Riquelme has been crap since he missed that penalty against Arsenal. Remember him before? He was total class

I haven't seen much of Mati and don't Nihat is all that great. Guille Franco is class IMO

I know, and I don't see him getting back to his best form if he stays at Villarreal.

I'm surprised by Nihat too, he is a quality player and I really though him and Forlan would easily get 30-35 goals a season between them. tbh Guille Franco has looked very poor every time he's played for them. He hardly scores, and misses the easy chances by a big margin.

He's been hurt, but I remember him playing against Arsenal...He was amazing

Nah, Vanderburgo can win big titles only when he has the best players. That's not the case.

Puro, Cruzeiro are based on my hometown, they aren't that good.


"Guille Franco is class".

Victory can't be claimed yet, since the player wants to be on loan for a whole year instead of returning to Villareal on June(wich to me makes perfect sense...change your entire life just for 3 1/2 months and the go back tu a club where you're left behind) an agreement can't be reached for Vila-real do not want to loan him for such a long time.

Now it's up to Roman to decide whether he is going to play or not until (at least) June....to tell you the truth he is so "moody" that he could well sit on his arse until the season finishes just to disagree with his current club

Don't worry Puro we'll still trash you when the time comes Riquelme or not

Great, now it's official, J.R.R has accepted to play for us this season
