I just read that myself. His record for Boca looks alright. Looked like its as good as a goal every other game. We'll see what happens if anything.

Transfer market has went cuckoo especially for the South Americans, players are getting sold for 10 million+ that most fans, even knowledgable ones, have ever heard of.

MEDIA FALLS FOR PALACIO PRANK
Posted 17/07/07

The international media has been tricked by a group of football fans in a scheme cooked up on an internet messageboard.


In scenes reminiscent of 2005's 'Kris Musampa' hoax - which made its way onto the pages of the Daily Mirror, and was even discussed on Match Of The Day - journalists have been caught out by an apparently entirely fictional story.


A blog claiming to be run by and on behalf of Boca Juniors fans began by reporting that the Gunners were interested in Argentinian Rodrigo Palacio, a striker who has scored 39 goals in 79 appearances for Boca and has won five caps for his country. Various Arsenal forums were also spammed with the rumours.


It didn't take long for the national press to jump on the bandwagon.


'Palacio, 25, will fly into London tomorrow after Boca accepted the Gunners' offer' announced the Daily Telegraph, who along with The Independent published the story on Tuesday. They were far from alone - the BBC, the Daily Mirror and Daily Mail all ran the news.


The Sun were amongst the hardest stung within the British media, announcing on Monday that 'all obstacles have been removed after Arsenal came in with a record-breaking offer', while Sky Sports News announced it as a done deal.


By Tuesday morning, the story had been repeated in newspapers as far afield as Argentina, Japan and Spain.

We should all cook up a story and then spam a load of other boards with it trying to get it into the press!
