BELLAMY ATTACKED RIISE WITH A GOLF CLUB - REPORTS

Craig Bellamy has been accused of beating up Liverpool team-mate John Arne Riise with a golf club.

The assault is reported to have occurred on Friday night in Portugal where the Liverpool team squad were training ahead of next week's Champions League tie with Barcelona.

According to the News of the World, the 'vicious punch-up' broke out at a karoke bar. The newspaper quotes an 'inside source' saying: "There had been a lot of drinking and everyone was enjoying themselves. But it all went wrong when Craig tried to drag John up for a song. There was a karaoke competition going on, but John's a quiet one off the pitch and wasn't having it at all.

"It started off as a bit of a lark with some of the other lads having a go but then it got completely out of hand. John went ballistic because Craig wouldn't take no for an answer. He was screaming at Craig to leave him alone, saying he wouldn't do it and yelling insults.

"Everyone was completely stunned by it because they were really having a go, standing there toe to toe swearing at each other. There were about 20 players in the bar including all the senior guys, like Steven Gerrard, Peter Crouch and Dirk Kuyt.

"They were warned to keep a lid on it and it appeared to calm down.

"It was really late, about 2am, and the players eventually started drifting off to bed. But Craig, who was sharing with Steve Finnan, was so wound up he couldn't sleep.

"He suddenly grabbed a golf club and went looking for John. And when he found him he waded in, hacking at his legs with the club.

"All hell was let loose and John suffered a lot of bruising. Craig was out of control and shouting that John had belittled him in front of the lads."

Meanwhile, The People and the Mail on Sunday report that a number of other Liverpool players were involved in a separate 'boozy row'.

'And among those who could face disciplinary action for the fracas in Portugal are Robbie Fowler, Jermaine Pennant and Jerzy Dudek,' states the latter publication.

Reports in Portugal claim that at least one Pool player was handcuffed for 'attempting to headbutt a policeman'.

Why would Blackburn be favourites on bet365 against Bayer Leverkusen and especially that blackburn are paying 1.91 and Bayer 3.80?

Liverpool were paying 5.00 against Barce, would be tempting to chuck a tenner on them.

Milan intend to sign Ronaldinho if he is up for sale: http://www.channel4.com/sport/football_italia/feb19q.html

If this were to happen, I have no doubt Real Madrid would do the usual tatic and send so much money that could feed and educate a lot of African countries for several years to try and buy Kaka and try and paper up their so obvious cracks in the team. I think Kaka would go as I can no see those being able to co-exist in the same team and be successful. I just think there will be a clash of egos.

Meanwhile Chelsea have had losses of £80m it has been reported. Read the bit about their acadmy, what acadmy? Because it is easier to buy a ready-made player then develop one. While Massimo moratti has admitted he would like to sign Cristiano Ronaldo but admits he has a tough ask to do to so.

And finally what does Marc think about Iain Dowie becoming manager?
