In Spain you never know. Nobody would ever imagined that Ronaldo would ended up playing for Madrid after he was Barcelona's supertar. Also Figo going from Barcelona to Madrid. Zidane from Juventus to Madrid.

Henry needs a European Cup. I think the WC wasn't good enough for a player of his quality, since Zidane was in his best level by then. Personally I don't see Henry winning a European Cup with Arsenal but that is just my opinion. Barcelona or Madrid are perfect for him I think. Not trying to make controversy but according to a poll I was looking at the other day. The Spanish Primera is the best rated League in the world. Again, it was in the news not my opinion.

2. Steven Gerrard is also not going to move to ANY other club since he has pledged his career to Liverpool. He rejected Chelsea's offer of somewhere around 30 million pounds.

Madrid is interested in: Ballack (I think he is def going) Gerard, Totti, Adriano, C. Ronaldo, a German Coach (don't know who yet) Henry, Lampard, and most of the superstars in the circle. Don't be surprised if any of those players end up with the white shirt. Remember, Madrid is Madrid.

3. Beckham will not come to the US yet. He wants money and the US cannot afford his salary. However, it is likely that he will come to the US towards the end of his career or head back to Manchester United.

I personally think the MLS needs more attention. Beckam would be just perfect (since he is the barbie of soccer). MLS needs more skills. Argentinians and Brazilians could do the job.

4. Ronaldinho is good, but there will never be another Pele.

My uncle (He played pro back in his days) gave me a bunch of Pele videos. Pele was good, not espectacular (My conclusion). Maradona was with any doubts the best player of all times. Ronaldinho could be, but remember that Ronaldo is getting ready for his last WC and Ronaldo is Ronaldo, he wants to win his third one (WC) being the recognized as the best, I think Ronaldo is jelous of Ronaldinho right now. I mean, anybody who does know about soccer (Coaches, pro players) think that Ronaldo is still the big dog.

5. Argentinian fans are stupid. They are the reason why if this continues, Argentina will not perform to their expectations in the World Cup.

Argentinians are facist (joking) they are used to have the best of the best, they're not happy with the talent they have now. Having some Argentinians friends (they live in Los Angeles) I kind know where their views come from. I mean come on now. Maradona is still alive, and they have videos of Diego when he was in Napole. Damn, if you ever get a chance to see Maradona at Napole, do it. You'll be surprise...

Well man. It was a nice talking, now I have to go to work. Later dude. Peace
1. Henry has already discussed with his players and the coach about the interest of Barcelona in him and he has refused. I'm sorry to say but someone like Henry i doubt would change his mind because of money. He has made a name for himself at Arsenal and i guarantee that he will stay there.

2. Steven Gerrard again is definitely not moving and neither are these players:
Totti (been at Roma too long, he will end his career there)
Henry (Arsenal)
Lampard (too much success in England with Chelsea, unless Chelsea has a bad year in the premiership in 07, i seriously doubt a move will occur.

Now as for C. Ronaldo and Adriano, a move is definitely possible with no arguments, C. Ronaldo and Ronaldinho on the same team (OMG) it would be like a dream come true to see 2 talents like that on 1 team.

3. I agree with you on that, Beckham would be nice for the MLS to have, but he won't go right now because there is just not enough talent here for him to complement his abilities.

4. For Brazil, i really think that Romario was better than Ronaldo, Romario was underrated and didn't participate in '98 cuz of an injury, but in my heart i feel that Romario is an overall better player than Ronaldo (just by a teeny weeny lil bit lol )

5. Argentina is a very good team and if there fans think they aren't good enough, then i just don't know. They have some really excellent talent but without fan support, you don't get that adrenaline rush, you just don't feel like playing to win when nobody is behind you.
