Cocis to play football for FC Timisoara

Romanian Rozvan Cocis will play for football club FC Timisoara, the club announced yesterday (Mon) evening.

Cocis, 27, failed to transfer to Portsmouth, ranked last in the English Premier League at the beginning of the year, because of an injury to his right arm.

Cocis was without a contract after expiration of the one he had with Lokomotiv Moscow.

Cocis, who played for Sheriff Tiraspol from 2004 to 2007, has 32 caps with the national team.

´Stupid´ Liverpool Kops it - How ridiculous these fans can be

"Liverpool has kopped it from cup rivals in Romania after a series of slip ups on the Premiership club's official website.

Rafa Benitez's team are due to play the country's Unirea Urziceni FC tomorrow (Thursday) in the second leg of their Europa Cup showdown.

But Liverpool's official website has infuriated fans by saying the match will take place in Budapest - the capital of Hungary - instead of Bucharest in Romania.

Kop fans are also being told they're playing Unirea Urzicini, misspelling the club's name.

"We know the British are quite stupid and usually very ignorant of other countries but schoolchildren could get this right," said one Romanian fan. "It seems the people in Liverpool are even more stupid than normal for England."

Now the country's top selling newspaper Libertatea has hit back dubbing Liverpool 'Liver-pul', Romanian slang for d***head."

I'm very angry with the Liverpudlians' attitudes, and got really pissed off reading this. Shame on them, they're acting like little kids, they should grow up and stop looking like a bunch of idiots. This is how it is a lot of times with the English (especially Liverpool), if they're scared of a team or aren't happy with performances they'll be stupid like this and insult the other parties, which is absolutely ridiculous. These fans should be punished severely by FIFA, who the hell do they think they are? 

Premier League team acquires Romanian football player

I know it's been a little while, but here it is (announced Jan 15th 2010):

"Romanian national team player Razvan Cocis will transfer to Portsmouth, last ranked in the English Premier League, it was revealed today (Fri).

Cocis, 27, will transfer from Lokomotiv Moscow to the Premier League team for three years.

Cocis played for Sheriff Tiraspol from 2004 to 2007 and has 32 caps with the national team."

 My view on Cocis is that he is very underrated and can be a great player at times, he hasn't been called up too much to the Romanian national team, but when he has, he's scored a good amount of goals (1 goal vs. Faroe Islands, which was his only call-up at the World Cup Qualifications).
