That's not really fair to foreign fans of the EPL. I've never been to England, so me choosing a team based off geographical location would be pointless. All of my family hates the beautiful game, so tradition is also out for me.

Should I then just not support any team? Seems a little unfair.

I was just reading a report that puts Ronaldinho in an AC jersey next year (in a 2 year deal). I think it would make the most sense for him as far as career moves, style and preparation for the WC in 2010.

Playing alongside Kaka and Pato would be great for the Brazilian national team's chemistry.

Barca really should just off load him and move on... yes, they can get good money for him but you don't want to keep him on as dead weight on your team creating negative energy. They'll do well to put that money towards someone else.

I'm sure Barca will sell Ronaldinho and use to the money to buy Hleb. Those deals look almost to be a certainity.

I'm still curious if Arsenal and Milan are going to be able to find a fee to agree on for Adebayor.

An early report is saying that Ronaldinho is going to accept the Man City offer over Milan's.

To be fair, the article says that the report is most likely rubbish and that the Spanish paper may be reporting this just to raise the transfer fee for Barca.

Wenger has a proven trackrecord with flaky players, he is not evne 30 yet a few more good yers, especially since he relies on technique and not physical attributes

The bottom line with fat ronnie is that any team of note doesnt want him! Look at his 2 main options at the moment.

AC Milan a team who hasnt qualified for the Champions League for the first time in christ knows when who have slipped financially down the list when it comes to buying power

Man City a team on the up who qualified for the Uefa cup through the fair play league but who have no chance of breaking into the top 4.This is a wannabee purchase by their chairman the loopy Frank Sinatra but lets be honest Ronnie will enhance their team

Ronaldinho isnt over the hill but has peaked and their is only one way his career will go and no elite team is going to pay 150k plus a week plus a transfer fee on this kind of personality.

Name 2, and yes Ronaldinho is immensly skillful but much of his game relies on strength and pace and when he's a few pounds over weight he doesnt look anywhere near as dangerous as he does when he's fit. In the years when he won FIFA player of the year he was undefendable square on, a year on and 10 pounds heavier he looks particularly average.
