Soccer summer signings

Hey this entire post will be on soccer. so dun bother reading if you are not interested.

The transfer market is on the high now. Almost a month ago, Man utd sign a trio worth 50 million pounds, namely Nani, Anderson and Hargreaves. it s worth the money but i dunno about hargreaves. where on earth is he gonna play? carrick and scholes now own the CM but soon, the more attacking scholes will be replaced by Anderson while Nani replaces Giggs. And what makes the Hargreaves signing more weird is that Man U almost comfirm the signing of Tevez. If Tevez is there, with Rooney upfront, it s impossible to play a 5 man midfield. Seems like carrick is gonna be benched. too bad.

Liverpool completed the signing of Fernando Torres while Luis Garcia goes to Atheletico. Will miss Garcia. He s a darn good player. Super versatile. Anywhere in MF except DM and anywhere up front. and his headers are darn good despite his height. Looking forward to days with Torres. Heard he had 11 different hair cuts so far and 3 tatoos. Interesting player. Fowler gone, and bellamy should go soon. That leaves Crouch, Kuyt and Torres. Benitez will rotate again. Now, Torres is the permanent Striker, Kuyt and Crouch take turns to be benched. BUT, another problem. What on earth is gonna happen to the 5 CMs now? Gerrard, alonso, mascherano, sissoko, leivia all wanna play first team. Gerrard is comfirm in so only one more guy can partner him. Or maybe benitez plays 4-5-1 and sacrifice Kuyt and Crouch. But it seems like liverpool is ready to let players get injured. January transfer window is gonna be interesting though.

Btw, dudek zhao ald. that means next season most likely reina take no.1 jersey. like van der sar. the no. 10 jersey is also vacated by garcia, so maybe kuyt will take that.

Sorry i bluffed you that this entire post will be on soccer. had chinese o level oral today. was the last to have oral in my group. topic was about singaporeans not exercising. talked a whole lot of crap and the teacher didnt say anything. say the question and i just replied with reason, outcome and suggestions. then zhao. shouldnt be that bad. passage had about 1 or 2 words read wrongly. otherwise, should be ok.
