Hamburg - Germany coach Jochim Loew has criticised the attitude of some players and said the recent disputes with captain Michael Ballack and Torsten Frings were harmful for the team's image.

Loew told Wednesday's edition of the Sport-Bild weekly that professional players should accept being benched and not express their dissatisfaction in public.

"There is a growing tendency that players express their dissatisfaction as soon as they are benched. We would do good to talk about the quality of football instead of players' sensitivities," Loew said.

Frankfurt - Austria forward Umit Kormaz fractured his right foot for the second time in five months on Wednesday and is sidelined for several months in the latest injury shock at German Bundesliga club Eintracht Frankfurt.

"I have never seen such bad injury luck in my many years in football," said Frankfurt board chairman Heribert Bruchhagen.

London, Nov. 12 : The story of Mark Bosnich is one of triumph and tragedy.

Chelsea goalie Bosnich was one of the first players to have his career ruined by cocaine.

In 1999, the Aussie keeper rejoined Manchester United — his first English club — after seven years with Aston Villa — and instantly became a Premiership champion. On 45,000 dollars a week, Bosnich, according to The Sun, had the whole world in his hands, but within three years his career was over.

He failed a drugs test and that saw him sacked from Chelsea and banned from the game for nine months.
