Chelsea closing in on Zhirkov
Soccer Betting Lines
06/30/2009 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Reports suggest Chelsea is on the verge of sealing an $30 million deal to acquire CSKA Moscow winger Yuri Zhirkov.
Sportsmail is reporting that Blues owner Roman Abramovich has agreed a deal with CSKA president Yevgeny Giner that will see Zhirkov pen a three-year contract with the FA Cup holders.
CSKA manager Zico is preparing for Zhirkov's departure, saying: "Currently in football there is no player who is able to replace him.
"Zhirkov to CSKA is like Cristiano Ronaldo to Manchester United or Kaka to AC Milan.
"As we know, both players moved to Real Madrid and I think their former clubs will be seriously concerned about how they will do in the future without their star players.
"Remember how Manchester looked last season when Cristiano Ronaldo was missing. The attack of the team looked much weaker."
Zhirkov has gained plenty of Champions League experience with CSKA, scoring a particularly memorable goal against Hamburg in the 2006-07 campaign.
Known as "the Russian Ronaldinho" for his dribbling skills and audacity, the 25-year-old made his international debut in 2005 and often starts on the left wing in a 3-5-2 formation for Guus Hiddink's side.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
