I hear he's already worth somewhat 80.000.000 €. Who the hell would wanna spend that kind of money on just one player ? Or better... who CAN spend that kind of money ?

ROFL Yeah, i can imagine that. He's from a family of boxers, right ?

I'm just curious if there's any club outthere willing to pay such a ridiculous amount of money.

Vaskez, I hope your hopes will be sundered today. Let Portugal be rid of hooligans!
They already are, the Spanish got knocked out yesterday. [/QUOTE]LOL, nice one j

I expected England to win tonight but not so convincingly! Was a good match, though the best match was still Holland-Czech Republic.

Shame Switzerland couldn't beat France - now we have to play Portugal instead of Greece.

LOL The English are getting a little carried away now. According to Ericsson and Beckham, Rooney is the greatest talent since Pele. The guy is good, but after two good matches on a European championship, i'd say it's a little over the top to make such statements.

Edit: some less cheerful news from Portugal

England fan killed in Portugal


Portuguese police have arrested a man over the death of an England fan in a suspected attempted robbery.
The man is reported to have been stabbed in Rossio Square, Lisbon, in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

The Foreign Office was able to confirm a man had died but said no other details would be available until his family had been informed.

"We can confirm that a British national has been killed," the Foreign Office spokeswoman said.

The man was taken to Sao Jose hospital in Lisbon where he was pronounced dead on arrival, Portuguese police said.

The death was the only incident reported after England's 4-2 victory over Croatia on Monday night.

A BBC correspondent in Lisbon said the mood in the city had seemed peaceful following the match.

Feel sorry for us Scots who can't turn on a radio or TV without hearing some pun like FABAROONEY! If the English win we're doomed as the 1966 world cup victory is just waring off.
