Players to watch:



Paulo César Wanchope Watson
Born: July 31, 1976 in Costa Rica
Height/Weight:
Current club:Al-Garafah, in Qatar
Wanchope began his career with Club Sport Herediano (Costa Rica), until he went to England to play with Derby County, in 1997, and for whom he scored against Manchester United in his debut. After scoring 28 goals in 79 games for Derby County, Wanchope was sold to West Ham United. He never quite settled in at West Ham, despite scoring 15 goals in 46 games, and was eventually sold to Manchester City. Wanchope earned a starting position at Man City, and helped lead the team to promotion to the FA Premier League. Although at times scintillating, Wanchope may have been something of a disappointment in English football because of a reputation for inconsistency. At the end of the 2004 season, Wanchope was sold to Málaga CF of the Spanish league for 500,000 pounds. Wanchope has been hugely important to the Costa Rican national team, playing for the team in the 2002 World Cup and several Gold Cups. On October 8, 2005, Wanchope became the all-time leading goal scorer for Los Ticos when he scored the first goal in a home win over the USA in the qualifying match that sent Los Ticos to the 2006 World Cup. In 2005, ESPN awarded Wanchope for scoring the best goal of the entire 2004/05 Spanish First Division against Numancia.
