MAN-FLESH DU JOUR: RAFAEL VDV

[It's sad when we can't be bothered to spell out your entire surname isn't it?]


Do you know what happens when a transfer 'saga' clogs up our news reader for half a century? We start to investigate. By investigate we mean doing flimsy posts like these discussing what said transfer looks like sweaty and shirtless after a match. Sorry, that's just the price you pay, Rafa. Good luck at Real.

Newsy bits and pieces we're thinking about this morning:

Cristiano went to go see Julio Iglesias in concert on Tuesday night. Not gay at all. Hey, remember that time he also wasn't gay at that Enrique Iglesias concert with Nani?

Also, he's staying in Manchester 'for at least this season'. Snore.

Freddie Ljungberg has left West Ham. Or West Ham has left Freddie. Whichever way you put it he's getting something like £6m out of it and we've been left a slightly frightening question: Could it be time for Freddie to hang up his boots for good?

Ladies soccer got started at the Olympics in China yesterday. Canadian ladies won their match against Argentina 2-1. Keep it up, girls.

The mens matches get rolling today. You can be sure that our sneaky Sacha obsession will only get worse now. Especially if he keeps up that scraggly facial hair that we have to pretend isn't there. It takes quite an imagination and we've reached the point of no return.

If you've ever felt 'indignant and deeply hurt' at a football match when someone unfurled an offensive banner or say, booed your national anthem you might be in for a pay day. Some dude in Napoli's getting £1,190 for 'existential damages' suffered at an Inter match.

I am totally down with the Sacha obsession after seeing him in the Olympic milk ad. I'll be taking lots of pictures of him when I go see Chivas USA (four Revs games and a scarf, wooo!)
Oooh doesn't he have nice knees!!
