Barcelona, the catalans are this year 2006 Champions League Winners.  Puyo, Rafa, and Valdes in the back won't give a goal.  Then even though Messi will be out for the final vs. Arsenal will will hopefully have Xavi back.  Larson will be back along with Deco for Wednesdays match and Ronaldinho has discovered the weakness of AC Milan.  Dida is not playing confident right now so expect more goal.  \nIts destined\nRonaldinho best player in the world\nEto'o best African player\nMessi best player under 21\nChampions in the Spanish Primera and EUFA

He's definitely NOT gonna play a single match. He's broken his metatarsal! Those things take ATLEAST 2 months to heal to full fitness! He broke it in the 1st week of May. Add 2 months to that & you're at the 1st week of July. If they even get to the finals without him, it'd be silly to bring him on with hardly any real practice under his belt!\n\nNo chance is he gonna play in this WC!

The problem is the Gudjonsen expected barca to start him on every game.  Little did he know that Messi is (little maradona) has way more talent and is way faster and doesn't mised 7 goals in a row.  jealous i guess.

No.  He's with Newcastle and out with a serious knee injury.  He's expected back in mid-April, so basically, out for the season.\n\nAnd boy do we miss 'im.\n\nGo Toon!!

Right now? I know for sure that he is in Germany. He is under contract with Mexican TV network Televisa and is commentating the World Cup games for the TV channel TV Azteca, owned by Televisa. He retired from soccer about a year and a half ago. Before retiring, he was playing for Al-Arabi in Qatar and was thinking of making a move to Club San Lorenzo de Almagro in Argentina. He trained with them for one day but declined the offer and retired from soccer. Lately, he has been on Maradona's variety show "La Noche del 10" and has been on other programs. He has been a feature subject for interviews for magazines, newspapers, and TV programs around the world as well as for FIFA.com. Last week, he visited Argentina's training camp in Herzogenaurach, Germany and had lunch with the national team of Argentina competing in the World Cup. According to TN Noticias, a news station from Argentina reporting live in Herzogenaurach at the time, Batistuta was not allowed to conduct an interview with TV reporters because of his contract with Televisa. There has been photographs of him at the training camp, but I haven't seen them. Another little fact is that he has also taken up golf :)

Carter did not play last night but the good news is.. he simply has a bad ankle bruise. His status is "day-to-day" but he should be up and skating Thursday night (Nov 9th) against NY Isl.

Have anybody heard lampard to barca?\n\nAnswer:\nReports in this week's papers claim that Barcelona are ready to step up their bid to sign Chelsea and England midfielder Frank Lampard, with a swap deal for Portuguese international Deco being mooted. However, Deco is having none of it: "I don't know anything about it but that is not a problem for me," he said. "I have a contract signed with Barcelona and my unique preoccupation is to play each Sunday" .

Can't be... he was rumoured to be going out with Merche Romero, a Portugese actress, model and TV host.\n\nJust a rumour..\n\nSeems highly unlikely he is gay though......\n\nHmm.. now im wondering.. are there any gay footballers out there?

he having a scan on friday, he might play in the quarters. But it dont matter he wont play good against the real good sides. Look at him for man utd in the champions leugue did not score any goals against strong opposition. Did you see him against ac milan total rubbish.
