Benitez has vowed to quite Liverpool if Torres is ever sold without his permission. I think the idea of him quitting on a matter of principle might just be wishful thinking on his part...

John Terry DEMANDS (ie thinks there might be a chance) that Chelsea make some big-name signings in January, Sergio Aguero yet a-bloody-again the player being touted. They've also been linked with a £50m double swoop for Sergio Ramos and David Villa, which will never happen. Add Jack Rodwell to that, too. I quite like him actually. Sign him up, Carlo.

George Burley is sacked by the SFA. Poor decision really. Doesn't matter how good a coach you are if you've only got a team of no-good knuckle draggers to pick from.

Various Ireland players 'still believe'.
