If you go through my previous articles then you will see how much Ade pissed me off over the summer.

I was very disappointed by his flirting with Barcelona and AC Milan and I let it be known here on my blog.

Before his summer antics I defended him when others were knocking him. It seemed a personal insult to me when he outrageously believed his own hype, and possibly even believed that he was bigger than Arsenal. Click to continue reading...

Having switched off from football for two weeks (hey, we all need a break from time to time), I return to find Real Madrid has, in that time:

• - won the season's first title in contention (the Spanish supercup against Valencia)
• - lost the league opener away to Deportivo
• - sold Robinho to Manchester City for a club record €40 million

There is no doubt that Emmanuel Eboue isn't the most popular of Arsenal players amongst Gooners.

He doesn't endear himself to the Gooner faithful with his sometimes infuriating antics. The play-acting and diving has to stop before he can begin to build bridges with the Arsenal crowd.

There is no doubt that Adebayor faces a humongous task to win over Gooners after flirting with Barcelona and Milan during the summer.

The badge kissing yesterday meant nothing to me. If anything it pissed me off. If Ade really wants to win back the fans then he needs to apologise for his antics and do it fast. Click to continue reading...

This indecision's bugging me. Yesterday the Sunday Mirror reported that Emmanuel Adebayor would be returning to pre-season training with Arsenal even after it seemed he had burnt all bridges with the club. The Sunday Mirror said that although Adebayor made his desire to leave Arsenal (for either Barcelona or AC Milan) no secret, no club was [. Click to continue reading...

QPR's bid to end the Kaspars Gorkss fiasco ran into more problems on Tuesday night when a proposed exchange deal involving Adam Bolder and Danny Nardiello stalled.

Blackpool now plan to order Gorkss to return to training with them after the defender was initially left out of their pre-season preparations. Click to continue reading...

Spurs fans will hope that this is the case. It appears that Manchester United may have burned their bridges with the North London club two years ago, after they wrested Michael Carrick away from White Hart Lane for £17million. Although Tottenham should have been laughing all the way to the bank with that sort of [. Click to continue reading...

When Ronaldo arrived at United there were some fans who for whatever reason didn't like him. The former Sporting Lisbon star was labelled as a diving cheat by ABU pundits and as far as a minority of Reds were concerned, the mud stuck. There was also the old "he's not a United player, and never will be" line trotted out by the hanging jury. Click to continue reading...

Baines will make the short trip across Lancashire to Goodison Park in Merseyside. Baines made sure not to burn any bridges on his departure from the JJB Stadium, he thanked the Wigan [...] Click to continue reading...
