Season 23 week 12 processing...

In a surprise move Boca have transfer listed the prolific Jefferson Farfan for £6millions.

He is a speedy winger who scores goals with 53 career goals in 149 games 35% strike rate and 86 assists. This season he has 8 goals in 20 games, 40% strike rate.

He's a good option at either winger or striker ( plays as a ST for Boca). If it wasn't for the loan availability of Damiao and soon to be Destro then Farfan wouldn't be leaving. Great value and creates a lot too.

Postman has just delivered Orders for Jamie's Schalke.

No Orders yet for Chelsea or Real Madrid.

I'm entering the teams now so it looks like the games will be on schedule to kickoff at 1000 hours Tuesday morning.

It looks unlikely I will get orders from Chelsea or Real Madrid before then but feel free to email me the details if you have them to hand or message me of course.

for the Chelsea team Ive replaced the injured Ivanovic with Santon at right back and Mellis comes onto the bench in place of the injured Oscar.

and for Real Madrid I have replaced the injured Marcelo with Abidal from the reserve team and put Nastasic into the reserve team in his place. No other changes needed.

and for CSKA Rodriguez replaces Bastos and Veloso replaces Kerzhakov in the midfield.

Paul i would like Ben Arfa to replace Mceachran

No changes for Man City this week with Lamps still out injured so Denilson continues to deputise at dynamo, they are sticking to their winger system and continue to play without an anchorman, so it could be a very interesting game this week with Birmingham.

Very surrprised Geoff seems to have not learned his lesson, for an experienced manager something as simple as playing an AM against FAS is a shocker, but to do it two weeks running...another cricket score coming up this week.

Hopefully he will afford me the same courtesy? I still have to play City twice!!

Got a feeling you will get mine tomorrow, bit to late sent on Friday, no deals just a few buildings sorted and some scouts, few play changes but nothing silly (there is a cheque in it though Paul)

cheers Iain will keep my eye open for it.

It seems that some of you have easier weeks than normal today because there are not quite so many head to head games today. We do have two big games in the Premiership though with Newcastle travelling to Fulham and Watford entertaining Plymouth and the game i'm most looking forward to an exciting game at Birmingham where Man City are the visitors. Man City's "plan" for handling the oppos target man certainly didn't pan out last week, but then it was only the first game in which they had tried it, and it'll be interesting to see how it works out this week.

the teams are out warming up...

the games have kicked off...

and the first goal of the afternoon has been scored already, and it has come at Fulham, so lets go straight over to get the skinny...

2 minutes on the clock and James Milner has crashed home a splendid freekick from the edge of the box to make it

Fulham 1 Newcastle 0

so a good start for the home side in an important game.

Time for Pato to show his worth to Barcelona after turning down a huge bid for him this week!

Banstead 1 Gillingham 0 Lee Molyneux.

Leverkusen 0 Bayern 1

and we have another early goal to report, this time in our other important Premiership game at Watford...

Plymouth have started this match in good form with Jack Wilshere putting them in front on 3 minutes from a fine freekick to make it

Watford 0 Plymouth 1

and Wilshere certainly seems intent on repaying his managers faith in him since the departure of Wayne Rooney.

and i'm hearing that Andrei Yarmalenko has given Real Betis an early lead at home to Real Sociedad.

Inverness 1 Queens Park 0
Dundee 0 Rangers 1

and a goal to report from the Barcelona Sevilla game...
