Stop celebrating and open your eyes please: We’re the shame of the Carling Cup

1
This morning, as I was writing my post-match thoughts on the Wigan match, I just couldn't not think of all those who would be envious of our triumph.

From bad to worse for Flamini at AC Milan

1
After declaring his disappointment for failing to make it into the first team, Mathieu Flamini will be even more disappointed after he was replaced after only 30 minutes in AC Milan's Serie A away at Atalanta. I'm not sure if an injury was the reason since he left the pitch without any visible problems. Click to continue reading...

Why is everyone so happy about Tottenham’s demise?

6
Easy easy, I know it's THE north London derby, I know we are arch rivals and I know that for the last two seasons - especially after Henry's departure - Spurs supporters said they will end above us in the table.

Toure’s injury and aren’t we getting a bit carried away?

1
As announced yesterday, Kolo Toure will be out of action for four matches and from what we saw yesterday, this may be very bad news. The Ivorian told Sky Sports: I hurt my shoulder badly, it was very painful but it is a job of a defender to take pain. And we won the game after [...] Click to continue reading...

Silence is golden for some, not for Alexander Hleb

1
Rememeber when I wrote about how ex-Arsenal players keep on talking about the club after they leave? It was when Senderos said A.C. Milan are a better club a month or so ago. Well, someone like Alexander Hleb couldn't stay off that list, could he? Like Flamini, I liked Hleb, and a lot and in a [...] Click to continue reading...

What happened to AC Milan’s Flamini and Senderos?
