Timmy Cahill scoring an international goal in every second appearance is a damning indictment on the lack of strength in the Asian confederation, no offence to Timmy, but his club strike rate is more like one goal every four appearances, or at least it was for Everton.

what you say is true, but you also need to take into account that the Australian team is built around Cahill which wasnt the case at Everton

While the French are arguing amongst themselves we will turn up and do what we always do.

Absolutely give it to the World in the groups and sneak through in an upset, then lose in a heartbreakingly unfair moment of blatant cheating by some overpaid prima donna in the last 16.

Grosso I still HATE you

Peru skipper been let off a cocaine drug ban.

Captains from the other teams in their group wrote to FIFA saying they knew he was playing under the influence of Coke as he drank it in his tea, so no need to ban him.

Boss story this.

Peru deffo now my team this summer.
