Thompson Plans Champs Return
In news that is good for both Melbourne Victory and Socceroo fans alike, Archie is aiming to be back to help the Victory's fading ACL hopes. He'd obviously like to use those games to show Pim that he's back and ready to help Australia in their June World Cup qualifiers.

Pim tries to save Bouzanis from the Greeks
During a recent trip to England to meet with Mark Viduka, Pim snuck into Liverpool to have a chat with Liverpool keeper Dean Bouzanis. The purpose: to try and keep him from going Greek. Seen as a potential Socceroo keeper down the road, they'll have to fend off the Greek FA who see him as their number one youth keeper.

Sydney Eye Up Bad Boy Prentice
Sydney FC continues to make moves this off-season. They are now looking to add a little depth to their side by possibly signing former Perth Glory wildcard Mitchell Prentice. Considering Prentice was convicted of assualt last year when he punched someone in a bar, it's a bit of a risk.

Kewell denies contact with Juventus
With his contract set to expire at the end of the season, rumours are flying about that Harry will join Serie A side Juventus. However, his personal manager has claimed no contact has been made. For a player that's spent more time on the physio's table than the pitch, being linked with such a high profile club might not be such a bad thing.

More drama with Liverpool owners
The hilarity continues at Liverpool. The two owners, Tom Hicks and George Gillett can't stop fighting each other. Each owns a 50% stake in the club and have had a falling out. Neither will let the other take over. All this comedy could lead to Rafa Benitez walking out the door. Leave it to a couple of men in their 60s to act like teenage girls.
