  1. Platini has pledged to limit the number of Champions League places to three, from the current quota of four. The 52 members who now comprise the European confederation, the richest and most influential in world football, decided the outcome in a secret ballot. Platini immediately invited Johansson to become an honorary president of Uefa. The 51-year-old former France star said: "This is just the beginning of an adventure. "I'm happy to be able to represent European football. I'm very moved and very happy. "This is a great victory but I have huge admiration for Lennart and I would ask for Lennart Johansson to become an honorary president of Uefa." Johansson was given a standing ovation by the delegates at the invitation of Platini. The Swede was openly against Platini's proposed changes to the Champions League. Johansson said: "I don't want to be impolite to a colleague on the executive committee. I've already asked him why he wants to introduce changes to this success story? "The Champions League is covered by numerous television stations around the world and there are a lot of sports that are trying to copy it." He added: "The future is his but he has to learn and gain in experience."

    Heroes

    I really got into them. Apparently NBC have split the series now so there should be a few more coming out for download over the coming weeks. I think its one of the best things on the tele. Give it a chance again. You never know you might get into it again. The mid season spilt is over, episode 12 was shown on Monday night, along with Prison Break.

  22. Giuseppe Rossi's agent has claimed that Barcelona - along with a number of other top European clubs - are showing a keen interest in the Manchester United youngster. The Italian Under 21 international failed to shine at Newcastle during the first half of the season, but scored on his Parma debut on Sunday after moving to Serie A on loan to underline his credentials as a talented prospect. Rossi is highly-rated within the halls of Old Trafford but now Sir Alex Ferguson's plans to make the New Jersey-born striker a key figure in his future plans could be under threat following the news that Internazionale, Milan, Juventus and Roma have all enquired about his availability. Agent Andrea Pastorello has revealed that United knocked back an offer for the forward in the summer, as well as confirming that European Champions Barcelona are keen admirers of the player who had been linked with a further loan move to Sunderland. "We have had contact with Barcelona," Pastorello is quoted in the Guardian. "But I repeat that it will not be easy to take him away from Manchester United. "They've already said no to £4.2million, which is no small fee by today's standards. "They have great faith in Giuseppe and turned down a £4.2million bid before the season started. "I'm grateful to United and we will never clash. But in terms of his characteristics, I think Rossi is more suited to the Italian game and that's why we rejected a loan to another English club [after his spell at Newcastle]. "He is at Parma now and he has a chance to shine."
