Not over yet, there are still great players who have passed the 30's year mark and are still strong and mostly better than the youngsters out there, such as Berkamp, Romario, Maldini, Cafu, Serginho, Shearer (recently retired), Zidane, Ronaldo, etc.\nThey shouldn't retire, but indeed, they should be expected and able to take a bench some games without throwing a fit now and then

Well here's the http://www.jadransport.org/articles/3028.html and there was this video of him doing some great tricks freestyle but I can't find it anywhere anymore...but Nikon Jevtic they believe will be the next best thing out of Europe. He has skills like Ronaldinho but let's just see where it takes him........he's only 13 and that's way to young to predict anything. Who knows...maybe some other kid will be as good but i'm definatly waiting for this one to rise. And Krkik too!! :D We need to see more young talent from Europe than South America!! Maybe a next Cruyff or Best?? possibly........

My personal thought on the matter is that African players haven't gotten the recognition they deserve simply because they haven't been able to develop their skills in Africa.  Many are required to leave so that they can access the facilities required to develop into great footballers, simply because many African governments have been too poor to fund nice pitches and hire coaches/managers that are required to run organized leagues and enhance competition thereby increasing the talent level, therefore only the elite of the elite make it in African football, whereas others with the sort of talent level to play on an international level, are simply never given the chance.  As Africa continues to grow economically the demand to see more African footballers will grow with it, more talented African players will make it into the elite leagues of Europe(and hopefully North America).... and remember friend what week doesn't pass by that you don't see footage of Didier Drogba(Cote D'Ivoire) or Samuel E'too(Cameroon).

no... real has got more than enough strikers... with the likes of ronaldo, robinho, baptista, raul, soldado... how could you possibly slip in antonio cassano in that list... he'll probably be like owen or morientes, not used so much... what a waste... i think they should more money on buying midfield players especially a playmaker and possibly a defender or two...

They have good funds therefore can buy the good players that can have a good chemistry with other team players, their coach Jose Murinho is a very good coach that can make the money they have very useful, using it in very successful transfer deals. They have very good players that have a good chemistry together and are perfect for the Priemer league. The money they have isnt everything, Real Madrid had huge funds but were never as good as Chelsea right now because they only bought expensive players, while Chelsea buy average priced players but buy them with higher prices than they are really labeled by their previous clubs, but these players end up showing the huge potential they have because Jose Murinho gives them the ideal positions, tactics and game style causing them to play really well as a team rather than individually. He also has a very solid defense and a fast midfield therefore can make a very good use of the counter attacks, and as you can notice a large portion of Chelsea's goals come through counter attacks, also the age range for Chelsea's players is the ideal age, that is 23-27

In my opinion there are many extremely talented players in the world, like for example there is Ronaldinho, Romario, Thierry Henry, Samuel Etoo, Cristiano Ronaldo, Leonel Messi, Robinho, Roberto Carlos, and etc.

Unfortunately youngsters like Suresh Raina, Mohd. Kaif, Dinesh Karthik etc. are not making use of the opportunities given to them.\nYou can find lot of youngsters coming to India Team before the world cup starts.

It's ok, but there should be a salary cap or something so you're restricted in who you can and can't pick--makes it more interesting.  But I'm a little pissed because I had David Villa on the bench and forgot to make him active before Spain's amazing game against the Ukraine, so I didn't get any points for his two goals... :(

they need to let go of sum of their so called have-been stars, and start developing their defense and team work.

arsene wenger because he buys young talent

zidane is quick to come to mind since he looks well over 34 (his balding has made him look it for some time now) but the better athletes are of course the great defenders in maldini and cafu that can easily contend with the youngsters such as the rooneys out there.

Their midfield and defense are superb. The problem lies within their stikers. Last season, Milan Baros made a lot of opportunies with lil' Luis Garcia and Steven Gerrard supporting. This year, their top striker, although he's 6'7, can't even header the ball. Either they should teach Peter Crouch to play football, or buy a striker that can make things happen.

i think they have the right combination of players playing under agood manager,together with motivations and the right team spirit so i think they wilol most definitely qualify for europe this season and maybe with a little more dedication can win a champions league ticket.

I think its unavoidable. Usually there's too much hype about young players before they have really proven themselves. This time it's not the case.
