Team of The Time #2

That's right kids. Team of the time is back careering into the blogosphere like a tubby South American, shortly to Klinsmann it up on some sodden turf:

1. Hugo Lloris - That's right Liverpool fans. He was on fire no? Liverpool-Lyon was a great game for so many reasons, the top notch keeping at both ends being one of them. The only difference is old Hugo was on the winning team and should be plying his trade in the knockout rounds now. Oh Snap.

2.Aleksandr Ryazantsev - Who? Sheesh, the guy that scored the super screamer against Barca. My Lord what a goal. You have got to admire a man who turns up at Camp Nou and thinks ''Check this Catalans'' and proceeds to launch it from miles out. The finest goal ever to come out of Tartarstan.

3. Sean St Ledger - Going for the outside picks at the minute, but his diving header in the Italy Ireland match was sublime. For sure the most composed and solid diving header I have seen in months. And he plays for Borough you say? Hmmmm. Well, it is that kind of stepping up to the occasion that could see Irish eyes smiling in November (Cliche fives).

4. Andrea Pirlo - So everyone new AC Meelan are aged and creaking, and that Pirlos knees having seized permenantly into imovable blocks. I may have to rethink my calls for a
reshuffle of the Azzurri if Pirlo gets back in the groove, something which based on the sublime goal he put past Madrid to take the lead for the 2nd time. There was just nothing on, so he unleashed a screamer. It is like Pirlo '05 that we all know and love is back again

5. Ivan Klasnic - And so, due to More Than being complete dicks about insurance, we come to a pick from a recent game. I like Klasnic I do. He plays for Bolton, showing he is all about the football, so much so that he plays for Bolton, when he could be making a living on the banks of the med. Respect for that. Even more respect for scoring a goal like 3 minutes after being passed out on the floor. Woot.

Radetto Team of the Time #1

''Holy cow, A regular feature!'' I hear you cry. Think of it as more of an irregular but not to freaky feature, like a third nipple (One time I saw a dude with three nipples shake a dude with four nipples hand, via two dislocated shoulders. No Shit).

So yeah, I guess this is kind of like team of the week, except not weekly, and I can't guarentee eleven players to be honest. Maybee some kind of five a side thing. Allthough I would pick five keepers if nessecery. Anyways, here it the FIRST EVER RADETTO DELLA SPORT TEAM OF THE TIME!!!

1. Ilker Casillas. So Real Madrid lost, no sympathy there, but Casillas pulled of one of the greatest saves ever. Seriously. This is up there with Toldo 2000. One of Ilker's or any other keepers finest works. And he came from the academy. There is a lesson in this somewhere.


2. Frank Ribery. So I had better put this out there. I am pretty much in love with Frank Ribery. He couldn't be more gallic if he played with a beret and celebrated by waving a baguette. Anyone who crashes the team bus as a hilarious joke, and hangs out with the pink panther is pretty cool no? Plus he tried to score the greatest goal ever against Juve midweek but totally bottled it on the final touch. Super Rad. It is after 50 seconds:


3. Simon Rolfes. Woah, a Bayer Leverkusen revival is allways welcome. Feels to me like their fans must have been through more heartbrake than any other. Going to put my neck on the block and say they are my tip for the Bundesliga. Big Call seen as everyone knows they will finish second.

4. Sepp Blatter. Ironic call up for yet another attempt to dick over international football. If you say the play offs are unseeded then keep it that way. Don't shit your pants and seed it just to guarentee Ronaldo will be at the tournament. What a dickweed.

5 - 16. I am going to give the remaining positions, and fill the subs bench with the Arsenal first choice eleven. Pretty special no?
