The penalty claim is a bit harsh in my eyes. Henry hit the ball at such pace it gave the defender very little time to react and his arms weren't even in front of his body anyway.
On to the lattest transfer gossip and with Scolari as the new Chelsea manager, he's been apparently been given a blank cheque, i.e. he can go for who he wants and Abrahmovich will give him the necessary funds. So if the papers are to be believed, he'll buy Kaka (hah!), Messi, Villa, Torres, Ribery, Benzema, Quaresma, Lahm, Ronaldinho and even Ronaldo (
good luck with that). So yeh, virtually every big name player under the sun. When will Abrahmovich learn that if your put together a club full of stars, it doesn't necessarily make a great team.
For Villa alone the price tag has been inflated to £30 mil.
Elsewhere, still no conclusion to Ronaldo-gate, Aston Villa still won't yield and sell Barry to Liverpool (personally think Barry should stay where he is) and Veloso, Ramos and Berbatov are the latest in line for Man Utd.
