If FIFA want to light a fire then so be it but it will be a very hot one. I hope this idea doesn't go any further." Lehmann Criticises Cole over Autobiography Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has criticsed former team-mate Ashley Cole for releasing an autobiography at the age of 25 : "Of course Ashley should expect criticism from supporters on Sunday. He should get criticism. That is football. It makes the game exciting. If he didn't it would have meant that he wasn't an important player but he was. He was a vital member of our squad and we enjoyed some major successes with him. So obviously he should expect some negative emotions when he plays against Arsenal. I do not understand why young players write books. I do not know why a player at 25 wants to tell me all about their big experiences. When I consider the age I am now, I would have a lot to tell people but it seems to be an English habit to come out with books that nobody needs. I don't know if Cole should have waited before writing his book but the English mentality seems to be different to elsewhere. I will probably write one when I retire but I am a bit older than these players. As I said, what is the point of writing a book at 25?'" Cole's book has laughably only sold 4,000 copies. Barcelona and Real Madrid Deny Links to Drug Doctor Barcelona and Real Madrid have denied suggestions that they have worked with Spanish doctor Eufemiano Fuentes who is under investigation in an inquiry into doping in cycling. A statement on Real Madrid's website read as follows : "Real Madrid want to deny in a forthright way any link, direct or indirect, of the club's medical services with Dr Eufemiano Fuentes.' A spokesman added "Real Madrid have no links with Eufemiano Fuentes and never have done. None of our players can go to another doctor without the permission of the club and no one has asked permission to be treated by him." A statement on Barelona's website read as follows : "FC Barcelona categorically deny the information published today Thursday by the French paper Le Monde in relation to a supposed and non-existent use of the services of the Dr Eufemiano Fuentes with the club and a supposed and non-existing specific link with the club's preparation plans last season. Furthermore, Barcelona reserves legal means it considers convenient in the defence of the club's interests." On being questioned in reletion to these links Fuentes said : "I cannot reply. I have been threatened with death. I have been told if I say certain things myself or my family could have severe problems. I have been threatened three times and I am not going to be threatened a fourth time" UEFA Hand Feyenoord Record Fine Feyenoord have been fined €125,000 following crowd trouble during last month's UEFA Cup group stage tie away to Nancy.
