Aaron Mooys move to Manchester City has transformed the midfielders life, making him one of the highest-paid Australian footballers.Mooy sealed a move to the English Premier League giants on Thursday, joining from sister club Melbourne City and staying underneath the City Football Group (CFG) umbrella.There was plenty of interest in the Socceroo midfielder from across the continent but Mooys decision to stay in the City family has reaped him rich dividends.Its understood the 25-year-olds contract is worth around AU$4 million a year and lasts until 2020, setting the Socceroo up for life.Only a handful of Australians have earned similar wages.Lucas Neills weekly wage of STG65,000 at West Ham equated to an annual pay-packet of over A$6 million, with Mark Viduka and Harry Kewell earning similar amounts during their time in the Premier League.Tim Cahills highest wage at Everton approached a similar level, with the all-time Socceroos leading goalscorer able to extend his earning capacity with lucrative stints in USA and China.While Manchester City have put Mooy on Premier League wages, its unlikely he will earn his wages playing in the English top tier.He could travel with City to Germany and China on their pre-season tour later this month but cracking into Pep Guardiolas star-laden first-team for the Premier League season may be a bridge too far.A loan deal to a European club or to Englands second-tier Championship has been mooted for Mooy, who set an A-League record last season by creating 21 assists.It remains to be seen whether clubs that missed out on a permanent deal for the midfielder will rekindle their interest with a view for a loan deal for the upcoming 2016/17 season.Belgian outfit Club Brugge were heavily linked, as were clubs in the Netherlands, Germany and Turkey.Additionally, City has loan arrangements with several European clubs - including Spains Espanyol.With key Socceroos matches on the radar, national team boss Ange Postecoglou will be keen to ensure Mooy doesnt swap regular first-team football for a long spell on the sidelines.Mooy has developed into a a fundamental part of Postecoglous team while at Melbourne City, most recently impressing in Australias 2-1 loss to England in May.The Socceroos have five World Cup qualifiers between September and November, including a home date with arch-rivals Japan back in Melbourne, that will require Mooys participation.Adidas Nmd Schuhe Günstig .C.

Adidas Nmd Deutschland .Y. -- The Buffalo Sabres have placed centre Cody Hodgson on injured reserve and recalled two players from their AHL affiliate in Rochester.RIO DE JANEIRO -- Ellen Hoog updated her best memory in field hockey.At the 2012 London Games, Hoog scored the winning shootout goal for the Netherlands against New Zealand in the semifinals, en route to their second straight Olympic gold medal.She was even more dramatic on Wednesday, in the semifinals again in the Rio de Janeiro Olympics. The Dutch and Germany finished regulation at 1-1, and their shootout at 2-2. Hoog had been the first Dutchwoman to miss, her shot stopped by the underside of goalkeeper Kristina Reynolds right boot.The shootout went to sudden death, and the tension was so much that Netherlands coach Alyson Annan-Thate was crouching on the turf, barely able to watch. The first shooters from each team scored. Then Joyce Sombroek, the worlds best goalie, blocked and saved for the Netherlands, giving Hogg, next up, the chance to be the hero again. She wrong-footed Reynolds, and slammed in a reverse stick shot, just like she did at the London Games. After that, it was a blur.I had some doubts because I missed the first one, but I trust in my own shootouts, so I thought, `Well, Im not going to miss it twice, Hoog said. But after I scored it, I dont know what was going on. The most feeling I think is relief. Just reliief that we won.ddddddddddddThe Netherlands, the biggest force in womens hockey, will play for an unprecedented third straight gold against first-time finalist Britain on Friday.Maybe it sounds arrogant, Hoog said, but we have done it before, so we know how to play finals. But of course its an Olympic final, and its always terrible. The nerves are coming already.She has a fix for that, the romance movie The Notebook, which came out the same year, 2004, that she made her senior Dutch debut. Her and roommate Naomi van As watch the movie before a tournament and before a final.Its a ritual, she said. Every time we watch it we become champions.Shes not half wrong. Hoog has won two Olympic golds, two World Cups, and three European Championships, and was world player of the year in 2014. Expected to retire after the Rio Games with more than 230 appearances and 60 goals, Hoog has already been setting herself up for her next career.Shes modeled for Sports Illustrated, published a book on fitness, and gives speeches on motivation.Theres no need to motivate for the final.We came here for the gold medal, she said.
