With all of the Champion's League group and round 2 matches as well as league games, I thought it would be a good idea to start a topic devoted to new European football news. I do realize that the winter break is coming up, but there will still be many transfers.

Last night, Ronaldinho was crowned with the Ballon D'Or in Paris. Go to www.nikefootball.com and watch his video in which he hits the crossbar 4 times in a row. It is quite amazing. There is no doubt in my mind that after an almost perfect display against Real Madrid that he deserves this award.
