from what i have heard, it wasn't even supposed to be a commercial. they guys with the camera wanted to get ronaldhino's reaction when he got the cleats. it was to their surprise that he got up and hit the crossbar with the ball. from there, it was posted online for people to see at nike.com. then they put it as a commercial.... totally real!

It is the number of times that player represents his club/team/country

HE REPEATEDLY FAILED.\nWHEN A CAPTAIN,WHO BATS IN OPENING SLOT SHOULD NOT BE IN POOR FORM.\nSO HE WAS REMOVED.\nBUT I CANT DENY ANY POLITICS INVOLVED IN IT.

lol neither.Their both too old and out of shape. I Still cant believe he didnt call up darren bent.This man was fantastic this season.but instead he called up walcott.an unexperienced youth whose yet to play for arsenals senoir team. I wouldve called up darren bent and .....Beattie.That beanstalk(peter crouch) cant even use his size as an advantage when it comes to headers.Thats my Opinion.Good luck England,you need it. Go Brasil.

Right now? I know for sure that he is in Germany. He is under contract with Mexican TV network Televisa and is commentating the World Cup games for the TV channel TV Azteca, owned by Televisa. He retired from soccer about a year and a half ago. Before retiring, he was playing for Al-Arabi in Qatar and was thinking of making a move to Club San Lorenzo de Almagro in Argentina. He trained with them for one day but declined the offer and retired from soccer. Lately, he has been on Maradona's variety show "La Noche del 10" and has been on other programs. He has been a feature subject for interviews for magazines, newspapers, and TV programs around the world as well as for FIFA.com. Last week, he visited Argentina's training camp in Herzogenaurach, Germany and had lunch with the national team of Argentina competing in the World Cup. According to TN Noticias, a news station from Argentina reporting live in Herzogenaurach at the time, Batistuta was not allowed to conduct an interview with TV reporters because of his contract with Televisa. There has been photographs of him at the training camp, but I haven't seen them. Another little fact is that he has also taken up golf :)

Yes a fan did play for west ham once !!! It was near the end of a season, could of been the last game i think, and he was giving Harry Redknapp a load of stick. So harry said if he could do any better he'd better put a shirt on and do it .So he did !! \n\nCan't find nothing on the net to support it, but i think he has a autobiograthy out so it might be in that !!!\n\nGood luck

I have heard of a story like this, i can't remeber what the bloke name was, but he was supporting England (suprise) it was during the quarter final of Euro 2004 in Surrey somewhere, he was watching the shootout and he just suffered a heart attack straight on the spot. \n\nIt was when Portugal knocked us out.

Back in the good old days when a player played for his nation he was presented with a comerative cap to mark the occasion.  Not sure if they still get them but basically the number of caps a player has indicates the number of times they've played for their national team.

whz the point? anyways he dont play. why simply putting stake of someones career?

He says he might leave because the fans have never really accepted him and that they get on his case whenever he doesn't score, even though he's led the team in scoring every year since he arrived. They also complain that he's overweight and out of shape. There's a decent chance he'll move somewhere else--partly depends on his performance during the World Cup.

He went to camp with Carolina and was cut from the squad in the first round of cuts.  As of today he is unemployed (as far as professional sports are concerned).

THATS TRUE GESTURE.\n\nIT NEEDS A LION HEART TO PERFORM SUCH BEHAVIOUR.\n\nTHATS WHY CRICKET STILL CALLED 'GENTLEMEN'S GAME'

haha Pedro would never leave you! \n\nI doubt that Pedro would put his pics on the internet because he is in the media so much and he just wants to have just a bit of personal space.

Well, there have been a few instances - but not quite matching the above.\n\nAs recently as in 2005 Brad Hodge scored 203 against South Africa in Perth. But just after 3 matches, was dropped on form.\n\nMohd. Azharuddin scored a century against the South Africans in his last innings, but thanks to the match fixing scandal, he never got to play gain.\n\nThe most unfortunate would be Basil D'Oliveira - a brilliant South African-born cricketer who had made his home in England.\n\nImmediately after scoring a superb 158 in the final test against Australia he was excluded from the England team picked to tour apartheid South Africa - apparently because of his race. \n\nhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/documentaries/features/not-cricket.shtml

There are lawyers that specialise in this subject. This has happened before and players have won such law suits.\n\nAsk around for a specialised lawyer

I think he lacks motivation for his players, he seems to want to be friend with his players rather than being the boss!  No good for sports - he's too laid back.  He must use all his passion in the bedroom cos he's pretty good in that department judging by the women he has had - lol.  He seems to have a group of players that he will never sub no matter how bad they are - he will never win anything with that attitude!  I'm afraid they should have picked a better guy to replace him as well the futures looking bleak for England.
