As many of you probably already know, Andre Villas-Boas has been hired to be the head man at Tottenham Hotspur. There must be something really impressive about him if Chelsea hired him and then another top English Premier League team hired him. Saying that Chelsea fired him so he must be bad, that does not really mean anything because Chelsea fires all their managers! We will see in a few months how Villas-Boas does in his return to the top flight of football (soccer)!
In short Bundesliga news, the defending champions, Borussia Dortmund, have started training again as of yesterday. They are hoping to defend their title for the third strait time. Also, Bayern Munich is intersted in the young 23 year old from Spain, Javi Martinez. He currently plays for Athletic Bilbao.
Well that is it for today, bye!
England in 4 place!!!!! The Rankings must be virus affected
