MILAN -- At 40, Francesco Totti may not be Romas `Golden Boy anymore, but he is still very much `the King of Rome.Totti celebrates his 40th birthday on Tuesday but the Champions Leagues oldest scorer is showing no signs of slowing down and indeed seems to have found a new lease of life.There was speculation last season that maybe the time had come for Il Capitano to hang up his boots and move into the boardroom but, with six goals in his past 11 league matches and several assists, Totti is proving his doubters wrong.Totti marked the final match of his 30s on Sunday by becoming only the second player to score 250 Serie A goals, reaching that mark with a penalty kick in Romas 3-1 loss at Torino.The man who upset Tottis pre-birthday celebrations, Torino coach Sinisa Mihajlovic, helped persuade then Roma coach Vujadin Boskov to hand a 16-year-old Totti his debut.Mihajlovic had been amazed by the precocious youngster, who was giving him and his fellow first-team defenders trouble in training as well as racking up goals for the youth team.On March 28, 1993, with Roma winning 2-0 at Brescia, Mihajlovic ran up to Boskov and said come on, bring the kid on... The rest is history.Mihajlovic joked at the weekend that Totti owes him a dinner for that, and it cant be at a pizzeria, it has to be oysters and champagne before adding he is the best player in Italy since Ive been here.And for nearly a quarter of a century Totti has been living up to those expectations. With his stunning goals and defense-splitting passes, Totti is, for many Roma fans, the epitomy of the Roman gladiator that he has tattooed on his right shoulder.If Rome is the Eternal City, Totti is Romas eternal leader and has been since he was first made captain in 1998, at the age of just 22.Zdenek Zeman, who promoted Totti to the captaincy, was such an ardent admirer that he once said: Who are the best five Italian players? Totti, Totti, Totti, Totti, Totti.Several teammates and coaches have compared Totti with a famous Roman monument, with Claudio Ranieri saying the star player is as important as the Colosseum is to Rome.He has been just as immovable.Totti has spent his entire career at Roma and when his current contract expires, he will have had 25 years in its first team -- remarkably more than 28 percent of the clubs existence.Totti could have won more than the solitary Serie A title, two Italian Cups and two national Super Cups he lifted with Roma, but he rejected offers of more money and glory to remain with his childhood club.I grew up playing for Roma and I want to die playing for Roma ... I have always been a Roma fan, said Totti, who was raised in the Porta Metronia area of the city.Tottis face adorns murals and posters across Italys capital, where he is loved by Roma fans and respected by supporters of bitter rival Lazio, despite his antics against them.Totti has scored 11 times against Lazio and often celebrates these extra-special goals with t-shirts made for the occasion. One famously said I have purged you again, while he revealed another reading simply Game Over after a victory in May 2015.He hit the headlines in January of that year when he scored the second of two goals against Lazio and, in a pre-planned celebration for becoming the all-time leading scorer in the derby, grabbed his phone off Romas goalkeeping coach and took a selfie under the Curva Sud with thousands of adoring fans in the background.Totti has also been a star for Italy and he helped the Azzurri to the European Championship final in 2000 as well as the World Cup trophy in 2006.He grabbed global attention at Euro 2000 with one of the moments of the tournament, in the semifinals against the Netherlands. In the tense penalty shootout, the 23-year-old Totti kept his cool to cheekily chip Edwin van der Sar with his spot-kick.Totti was named man of the match in the final, despite Italy losing 2-1 to France.Totti played in all seven of Italys World Cup matches in 2006 and his last match for the Azzurri was the final against France, concluding his international career with 58 caps and nine goals.Asked what gift Totti should get for his 40th birthday, Roma coach Luciano Spalletti was among the people who suggested a time machine.

Were part of the City Group and playing a good brand of football is very important to us.In a much-changed league, where almost every side has added international class, City has also re-shaped their playing stocks.Mercurial captain Lisa de Vanna hasnt returned for another season, with Steph Catley given the armband.Last seasons best player, Scot Kim Little, has also stayed home, with golden boot winner Larissa Crummer to miss the opening month with an ankle injury.Attacker Beattie Goad has headed to the US to study, imposing defender Jen Beattie has Champions League duties with Manchester City and youngsters Alex Chidiac and Monique Iannella have also found new homes.A veteran of womens football, Montemurro says he doesnt begrudge any of hiis players moving on given the demands of the sport.ddddddddddddPlayers need to be commended because some of these girls havent stopped playing for years, he said.They go from league to league to league, not paid very well and you really commend what they do as elite athletes.

A lot of clubs have recruited well with a lot of international players. We expect a lot of tough games and a very competitive W-League, he said.Sydney are going to be very strong. Canberra are going to be very strong. Adelaide have recruited well.Its great that the clubs are lifting their recruiting and their processes. Its only good for the game and its going to be a great season.
