The August issue of FourFourTwo is out now! We cornered Bresciano and Grella to find out how they made it where few Aussies have prospered - Serie A. We also asked a few of our up and coming Socceroos and Olyroos about how they have tackled the big decision - when to head overseas. It makes for some pretty interesting reading.

Next month we'll take a behind the scenes look at the as yet unreleased FIFA 09! It's pretty special, so it might be a good idea to get your hands on a PlayStation3 as soon as possible. And here's a way to win one - pick your greatest transfer here and you could win a PS3 courtesy of NAB. Good luck!
