Lyon have clinched the signing of Brazilian [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anderson_Cl%C3%A9ber_Beraldo]Cleber Anderson[/url] from Benfica.

The French champions have been looking for a new defender since captain Cris suffered a serious knee injury.

They struck a deal with Benfica earlier in the week and Cleber passed his medical at Stade Gerland on Thursday.

He has joined for four million euros (£2.7million) and put pen-to-paper on a four-year deal.

Fellow Brazilian Cris, who is bidding to be awarded a Portuguese passport, has been ruled out for six months.

Serie A newcomers Genoa have announced the signing of Alessandro Lucarelli.

The experienced defender moved from Reggina to Siena earlier this summer, but after just a few days of training his relationship with coach Andrea Mandorlini became strained.

Genoa moved quickly to open negotiations with Siena, and have now snapped him up on a three-year deal.

"I've signed a similar contract with the intention to respect it," Lucarelli told the club's official website.

"I had other offers, but Genoa have been the club who showed the most desire," he told the club official website.

Genoa open their Serie A campaign against European Champions Milan this weekend.

Dynamo Kiev want to sign Andriy Shevchenko on loan from Chelsea.

The 30-year-old striker, who started his career with the Ukrainian champions, has not played for the Blues this season because of a back injury.

Dynamo president Igor Surkis told his club's website: "I have asked Shevchenko to ask his board to let him come here on loan.

"I am ready to take Andriy. He does not have a small salary but I am ready to pay that."

Shevchenko made his name with Dynamo before joining AC Milan in 1999.

He moved to Chelsea for £30m in 2006 but scored only four goals last season.

The Italian side have also attempted to re-sign Shevchenko but their president Silvio Berlusconi claimed in July that they have been priced out of any deal.

Surkis says he does not want to strike a permanent deal for Shevchenko, adding: "I'm ready to pay his salary instead of the Chelsea board but I'm not ready to reimburse Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich for him."

I on the other hand, heard not so sparkling reviews of Bourne, 'tis prolly why i enjoyed it

Knocked up is with Katherine Heigl. . .from Grey's Anatomy and formerly of Roswell (the show) and this other dude from 40 year old virgin. He has another movie showing, forgot the name, but i read that he's working on a green hornet script

Thats probably why i didn't enjoy it as much, reviews can be deceptive at times.yeah the blonde in Knocked up looked kind of familiar . I still haven't watched 40 year old virgin, Steve Carrell was in it right?. I might get it off the internet, it won't be hard to find.

I watched Bourne Ultimatum on saturday, people made so much noise about it that its the best film of the year, best this best that but I don't know to me it just looked ok, predictable and very similar to the 2nd part.
I watched Knocked up yesterday, very good romantic comedy. Simple and interesting. I didn't recognise anyone familiar in it but the film had good reviews and did well at the box office. I'll watch Rush hour 3 this weekend hopefully.

why was the other thread closed?

Arsenal keeper Jens Lehmann is out for at least two weeks after aggravating an Achilles tendon injury in Germany's 2-1 friendly win over England on Wednesday.

Spanish keeper Manuel Almunia will replace Lehman when the Gunners play Manchester City on Saturday.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger said: "Jens is out and he will miss two weeks, I think. Maybe more - I don't know.

"He is going to see a specialist in Germany on Friday. He had this injury before but it got much worse."

Lehmann has made two high-profile errors when playing for Arsenal this season.

He gifted Fulham striker David Healy a goal when trying to deal with a backpass in the Gunners' opening game and let a David Dunn shot slip through his hands to give Blackburn an equaliser on Sunday.

El Hadji Diouf is planning to hold talks with Bolton over his future at the club.

The Senegal star is unsettled at The Reebok Stadium after failing to establish himself in Sammy Lee's starting line-up.

Diouf, who claims he is being chased by a host of teams, has admitted he would consider a move to a club with UEFA Champions aspirations.

Talks

The former Liverpool man is now set to sit down with Bolton bosses to thrash out his future.

"I'll go back to Bolton to speak to the chairman," Diouf told The Sun. "At the moment I'm at Bolton but tomorrow who knows?

"Before I had some problems at Liverpool but everyone in the UK now knows that El Hadji Diouf is a top player.

"I don't just want to move for moving's sake because Bolton is like my second home. I want to go to where I'll be happy."

Meanwhile, Lee has called on Bolton's fans to get behind the team after a disappointing start to the season.

Bolton have lost all three of their opening Premier League games and Lee hopes the supporters keep faith with what he is trying to do at the club.


Disappointing

"It has been a very disappointing week for the club but I would like supporters to keep faith in what we are doing," said Lee.

"It's not going to happen overnight, but it would be great if we could have some patience in what we are trying to do.

"We have been working very hard on the problems we have encountered during the defeats."

Chelsea appear to have switched their attentions away from Daniel Alves, as they look set to clinch a deal for his fellow countryman Juliano Belletti.

Jose Mourinho wants a new right-back and Brazilian Alves was his No.1 target, but after weeks of talks Chelsea have failed to broker a deal with Sevilla.

At one point Chelsea are believed to have offered over £20million for Alves, but Sevilla refused to accept - and now Mourinho has been forced to look elsewhere.

Options

Roma-bound Cicinho was one player under consideration, but he now looks to have decided that Belletti is the man to solve his issues on the right of his defence.

Glen Johnson was expected to push Paulo Ferreira this season, following his return from an impressive season-long stint at Portsmouth, but Mourinho remains far from convinced by either of his current options and at Liverpool on Sunday even opted to play Michael Essien at right-back.

Belletti now looks set to solve Mourinho's problems by shunning interest form Newcastle and sealing a move to Stamford Bridge.

The 31-year-old, who has sunk down the Barcelona pecking order over the past 12 months, is reported to be in London undergoing a medical before penning a deal with Chelsea.

its a lost cause, no organisation, wrong decisions. We should just hope for the best.

I concur, Lamps is a one trick pony. Gerrard and Hargreaves would be perfect.

ayusman16:
i think our players need to hit d gym!

can't see that happening with AW at the helm. See the difference between Gallas at Chelsea and now.

Yeah true he might not be match fit but at least he can come in as a sub. We need that agressiveness in the attack. Da silva was on the scoresheet for croatia yesterday.

If we go by what AW says we'll be playing two strikers upfront in the nearest future. Looking like Adebayor and Van persie. I think the attack will be more effective this way.

the game on saturday is going to be tough against the early leaders of the premiership.

yes

toshmann:
i'm sure i'll prefer gerrard and heagreaves. then lampard can substitute heagreaves in 2nd half.

thats what I prefer too. They should try it. Gerrard and Lamps isn't just working.

debo, whats your take on Lehmann today in the game at wembley, do you think he'll continue to commit blunders?

toshmann whats your take on Lampard today. Do you think he'll fit with Gerrard or they should just go for Hargreaves and Gerrard in the midfield.

this your love na die .

FYR Macedonia 0-0 Nigeria, according to the BBC website.

Cheslea winger Arjen Robben is poised to move to Real Madrid after both clubs announced they had reached agreement on the Dutch international's transfer.

The deal is now only subject to the player agreeing personal terms and passing a medical.

A Chelsea statement released on Wednesday said: "Chelsea Football Club and Real Madrid have reached an agreement for the transfer of Arjen Robben subject to the player agreeing personal terms and passing a medical."

Real also confirmed the deal for Robben in a statement on their website, which read: "Real Madrid and Chelsea have reached an agreement for the transfer of Arjen Robben, who will become part of the Madrid club for the next five seasons.

"The agreement is pending the player's medical and the signing of the contracts."

At the start of the month Spanish media reported that Real had offered Chelsea around 40 million euros for Robben.

Robben, 23, has two years left on his contract with Chelsea and has been in long drawn-out negotiations with the London club over a contract extension until 2012 but has not always been in favour with the club's Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho.
