    What's your prediction for the final of the Copa Libertadores? Fluminense looks like the favorites to me. But this is football... anything can happen.

    Hey man i respect your opinions as they seem well founded and based on a secure knowledge rather than emotion. In commenting on the world cup it was mainly as a neutral as I am New Zealander but normally cheer for Brazil because of have good friends from your country. The world club championship is an odd one for me because it seems more about the money than the fans or football, constantly playing in Japan is just annoying to me. But yeah fair call it seems the South american club sides have the edge in this department as well.
    The reason I am a strong follower of the english game is that growing up here the only coverage we ever got of any football was from england, and the world cup. alot of british came out to live here in the 50's and 60's as well so their mindset and ways dominate New Zealand football, unfortunately, haha. nigeria in the 94 world cup were cool, was it amokachi who got that screamer against greece? cant quite remember. thats is a crack up 'Ronaldo breaks wind'.

    allo mate, I saw the note you left on Salaar's profile, about the wall spray in Brazilian Football. That has to be one of the best ideas ever. I am so sick of the wall being able to move about 3 yards before the kick is taken.

    I totally agree with you about Anderson. By no means do I think he is overweight and clumsy. I think he can develop into a great midfielder. He's already made huge strides in his first season in England. He's an excellent tackler, very strong, not bad in the air, fast, and pretty good with the ball as well. He just lacks an eye for goal. Otherwise he is a great footballer and Manchester United would be out of their minds to sell him. The fans would have an uproar!

    Oh by the way S, the more you can contribute on football in Brazil, then all the better as for many of us, it is not something we get to keep a close eye on. And that is a pity.

    Hope to hear from ya soon.

    Hey S,

    I think they are great ideas and I think a round table discussion on these topics would be very intresting, mostly because they are very rare topics and would definitly cause heated arguements!

    Good idea S, hope you can push it through and make it become one of the Round Table discussions.

    Hey SB,

    I get what you're saying but by editing my article like that, you could've gotten yourself into some trouble.

    Anyways, if you do want to leave your comments - about anything (including the picture!) feel free to do so - but not on the title!

    Cheers,
    Shyam.

    SB,

    While I appreciate your work here, your title edit of my article "Ronaldo Breaks Silence" to "Ronaldo Breaks Wind" is totally uncalled for and derogatory.

    hey S,
    all ur digs about CR7 and is big game blunders do not affect me.
    He is still the best player in the world and does not require a EURO medal to prove it. I am not a big fan of the guy but adore his skill on the ball and respect his talent.

    i dont mind as to who wins the title coz I support Argentina and not any European team.

    See you in the next WC qualifier.......
