1
Take us to the promise land I know that I generally write negative things about the Premier League, but I genuinely feel that its existence has been eroding all that we love about the game of football for too long, and that the world would be a better place without it.

3
According to Spanish sports daily Marca, Liverpool will not offer a cent more than €12.7m to RCD Espanyol in exchange for winger Albert Riera.

Riera is allegedly viewed by Reds coach Rafael Benítez as an ideal candidate to provide competition out wide on the left for Ryan Babel.

Thierry Henry was also present at the event which saw Hleb kissing the Barca Batch as though he was practicing it since he first kicked the ball.

Who the Hleb knows?

3

The ongoing saga of Alexander Hleb continues today. The latest comes with anger for the Belarusian, as he is upset over rumors of moving to Bayern Munich. This seems like an odd turn of events, considering Hleb seemed so determined to leave Arsenal.

Ruud Van Nistelrooy has already been bemoaning his sh*t experience at [. Click to continue reading...
