New Music...  

5/24/08

Usher's new album will be out May 27th and it's definitely hot. The album is more vocal than others and at the same time doesn't fall behind beat wise. Overall, it's lyrically more mature, so no money, cash, hoes songs... Definitely something you can listen to with your girl and if you don't have one, it'll get you closer to achieving that.
It's hard to point out the best songs as most of them are really good, but if I have to highlight a few, here they are:
Love In This Club - Who doesn't know this?
Moving Mountains
Best Thing - All I'm gonna say is: Jay-Z!!
Love In This Club Part 2 with Beyonce and Lil Wayne - Hot!
Anyway... It's good music people!

Monta Soccer: Introducing Real Street Style  


Street brand with talent and quite a bit of style, I actually ordered the Flamengo Orrie Polo and it's a good looking piece. Talent wise, they sponsor Street Legends such as Vaantje, Djudju, Orry, Wasi, the Pinto bros and Zaid, not to mention their freestylers who are ridiculous with the ball. Edgar Davids is the man behind the scenes, and these guys have already been all over the World with a TV show called Street Legends, where they faced local opponents wherever they landed. From Amsterdam to London, all the way to Rio.
You can check them out here: Monta
More from them coming soon...

Robinho's Agent In London  

5/22/08

The Blues may get a big gift after losing the CL final this past Wed. According to Spanish papers, the forward's agent, Wagner Ribeiro, is currently in London listening to offers. The price: £23 million. But apparently Chelski have got serious competition.
Even though they were the first ones to show interest, the papers say the Red Devils as well as the Gunners are on to him already. However, if Robinho ends up at Stamford Bridge, the move would benfit Barcelona who are interested in the signing of Malouda, who in turn has manifested about his desire to leave England.

AC Milan target Drogba, Eto'o and Adebayor  


One of the four. They are all perfect,"said AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti.


"They are centre forwards with the characteristics needed to solve our problems. We need flexible forwards who can help the squad in defence too."

He also said to expect 6-7 new signings to AC Milan and he refused to comment on the possibility of Ronaldinho playing for AC MIlan.

"He's a great champion and Milan always looks at champions, but whether he's coming is not a question to ask me."

Full story here.

Ronaldo is leaving?  

Looks like a missed PK and crying over it does not turn away the Spanish giants. Real Madrid says that Man U cant stop things if Ronaldo wants to leave.

This is getting more and more dramatic by the minute. Fergueson says he stays. Rooney warns him to stay. Ronaldo says he makes no promises. My guess is he stays. 
Is there room at Real for him  anyway? How are you going to have Robben, Robinho, and Ronaldo on the pitch at the same time?
Anyway, full story is here.

The "Special" Report  

5/21/08

A lot of us are wondering where, oh where will "The Special One" end up? My guess says Inter Milan, since Mancini has already stated he's done with them.... Talks of Lampard becoming a Nerazzuri.... It's all too coincidental and he'll probably bring Drogba, Essien and Carvalho along. I've also heard Man City, Valencia, Bayern Munich... But his ego is too big for any of them. So wherever he goes, I just hope he does it soon... Who doesn't miss this guy??

Champions of Europe  


Manchester United conquered Europe once again...
This time against Chelsea as the game finished 1 x 1, a scoreless overtime and 6 x 5 during PK shootout.
C. Ronaldo opened the score after 26 mins with a beautifuly placed header to the top corner completely stunning Peter Cech. The cross was delivered by Wes Brown after a nice little 1-2 with Scholes.
Chelski came back right before the break as Essien hit one from long range which was deflected by Man U's defense falling perfectly in the path of Lamps who then with his left, classly touched it over a beaten Van der Sar.
During PK's, Cristiano failed to convert his as well as Terry who hit the post. In the end Van der Sar came through saving Anelka's shot and winning his second CL trophy.
Looking forward to the Eurocup...
