"Ha! Macedonians, they are no match for me!"
Considering there has been rumor speculation daydreaming about Jose Mourinho possibly taking over at Liverpool in the near future, this morning’s news out of Italy suggests that he’s at least getting some first-hand experience of thievery before making such a switch. No, it’s not Scousers on a weekend trip to Milan; it’s some shady Macedonians!
Italian police arrested four Macedonian men who were caught with surveillance photos of Mourinho (and, unrelated to the Special One, photos of four unnamed Atalanta players), as well as detailed plans and directions to the manager’s homes in Milan and near Lake Como. Obviously, the men were planning burglaries, and authorities don’t believe the Macedonians were connected in any way to death threats Mourinho received last year, after Muslim radicals took offense to his suggestion that Sulley Muntari’s form dipped because the midfielder was fasting for Ramadan.
Security is being upgraded at his homes, though he should know that he’ll need something much stronger should he ever end up on Merseyside.
this is what I mean about Serie A, James T!

I would draw a cartoon showing asshats and link it here but Im afraid you guys would get death threats too from braindead jackasses (not even the kind that follow football or even frequent blogs but more dangerous jackasses).
If you believe in the bogeyman and he tells you to fast, just say no. And then sit down and scarf down a plate of baby back ribs. And yes, considering that football players in the 21st century use all tools including diet to their advantage to keep their bodies in top form, fasting for a month CANT but affect your performance.
Luckily, greeks that will be pissed off that you use the word macedonian for some ex-yugoslavians wont want you dead, they’ll just spit in your salad.
