Tevez set for £32 million transfer

Manchester United are believed to have agreed a fee of £32 million to make Carlos Tevez a permanent member of the squad.

Tevez is currently owned by MSI and joined United from West Ham on a two-year loan. The player is expected to make his move permanent later in the year.

The £32 million transfer fee will make Tevez the most expensive player in English football. After an impressive first season at United it is clear why Sir Alez Ferguson sees the forward as part of the club's long term plans.

Last season, Tevez had a tendency of scoring at crucial moments during the campaign and also provided support and space for others. For a player of his age and quality I feel that the £32 million is justified.

Tevez is only 23 years old and has already shown us what a world class player he is. He has formed a great partnership with Wayne Rooney, the two being the main reason why Cristiano Ronaldo scored 42 goals last season and has also shown us his loyalty.

The Argentine had reportedly rejected an approach from Real Madrid this summer. Claiming he did not want to join the La Liga champions as he is happy to commit his future to United.

This is true commitment and it is what we the fans should expect from the players. Ronaldo needs to take a leaf out Tevez's book to understand what commitment is.

South Africa to legalize prostitution during World Cup

Football fans traveling to South Africa for the World Cup are in luck.

Members of the South African goverment are pushing forward plans to legalize prostitution during the games, temporarily that is.

Millions of tourists will be in South Africa and the assumption is that along with the football, they will also want alcohol and sex.

Officals claim that sex trade thirves during events such as the World Cup and if the proposal is pushed, then South Africa stands to gain economically. Due to the legalization, the goverment stands to receive extra tax revenue.

Along with the extra revenue, unemployment rates would fall as more people are able to work and also crime rates will fall because prostitution will not be considered a felony.

Additionally, legalizing prostitution will make it safer for everyone as it will be controlled.

The arguments against the proposal, other than the whole morality issue. Is that when people get used to the idea of paying for sex they will not want to give it up.
