yes and no

i agree with you abut the centre-backs - what happened to the idea of Martin Keown coaching our defence does anyone know? left-footers though, we got RVP and eduardo and Rosicky is pretty good with both feet (i think, it's bee a whle though) and young JW has a cracking left-foot supposedly getting a ...

eboue boys

you're wrong about Eboue. He plays with confidence and style, at the very highest level. The diving thing is an issue when you see it in the premier league I agree. But honestly, last fifteen minutes of the Champion's League final, how many Gooners werer saying, I hope Barca score here cos Eboue ...

On being a Gooner

Anyway I was at this wedding in a village in Kent and after the party cabs were coming at a rate of about one every half hour and I didn't even have a phone on me. So this mini-cab pulls up and everyone tries to rush it, so the driver yells out: "Is there a Gooner here?" I could hardly believe my ...

adebayor

When Ade first signed I was a big fan if for nothing else than a few touches in link up play with Thierry Henry which showed genuine class. Then I started topdoubt his ability as a finisher. I began this season firmly resolved to have complete faith in the guy no matter what - and Saturday was one ...

I think it's crazy to say Theo won't make it or lacks the quality to do well. Don't even think it! The guy has more class than most players you will see in a lifetime but he is just 18 years old. That's 18! He's only been allowed to buy a pint for the last six months. And he's already part of what ...

All this stuff about Abramovich wanting to watch entertaining football makes me laugh. Did anyone find out why he sacked Ranieri? Chelsea did play good football in those days and with one or two exceptions the new signings all worked well. Ranieri took too long to deliver silverware though. So ...

agreed

Blatter's plans would push the price of mediocre English players through the roof and thereby favour the richer clubs even more. Totally counterproductive in my view and on a par with his idea about getting women to play tight shorts or whatever it was. The guy is a useless windbag.

In the early ...
