Edu praises Vieira

Former Arsenal midfielder Edu believes that the Gunners will struggle to replace Patrick Vieira. The French international has joined Juventus for £14m after deciding that he was in need of a new challenge. "Vieira's a good player – to replace him is very difficult," Edu told Sky Sports. "He's important for the team because he has big spirit. Patrick is a very important player for Arsenal but Juventus is a big club, he deserves a big club and I'm sure he'll be a very good player for them. But Arsenal fans have to believe in Arsene Wenger because he is a good manager and knows what he is doing."

Berlusconi slams RAI Wednesday

The son of Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi has slammed the decision by Italian State broadcaster RAI to spend £40m a season on Champions’ League coverage.

Pier Silvio Berlusconi is Vice-president of the RAI’s television rival Mediaset, the commercial TV broadcaster owned by Milan patron and Italy Prime Minister Silvio.

And the junior Berlusconi hit out at his rivals, accusing them of damaging the future of televised football.

Pier Silvo told la Repubblica: “The public television broadcaster should not make such foolish deals. Doing so also damages us.

“Mediaset currently pay £20.7m a season, and offered £24.1m a season - and that was pushing the deal to the very edge of its economics limits.

“RAI have remained in the Ice Age, television wise. Canale 5 (a Mediaset channel) will still remain Italy’s premier TV channel.''
Poor Berlusconi. He will go down in the record books as having lost the Champions League twice in the same year. ;)

you know there was also a joke going around about how Milan lost 4 scudetti this year, playing on the old Berlusca quote that the CL is worth 3 league titles :D
