Selection snub for Olyroos stars

I'm staggered. I go to most Adelaide United games and have watched Burns and Djite play in temperatures WORSE than they will experience in Beijing. And add their experience in the AFC on top of that! This is clearly a personality clash, which is exactly why we should think twice about coaches who are too involved with the players. A foreign coach will look far more dispassionately at team selection, and pick players on their MERIT, not personal feelings.

Galatasaray capture Kewell

I reckon goodluck Kewell. Good move. GS is not a huge name like Liverpool...but neither was Leeds really. Just because us Aussie fans are used to watching EPL doesn't mean that EPL teams are what football players should strive for. Apart from the top 4 in EPL, the other teams are just there to finish you off, physically, mentally and career-wise (except maybe for Everton who are consistently performing well with good talent). Roma are wannabe's anyway and so too is Riise (bad omen for Harry).
