A lucky escape for the Arsenal as Robin comes home early

by Tim on Nov 13, 2011 • No Comments

First off, let me address something that was discussed in the comments of yesterday’s article. I’m sorry everyone but I don’t think Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is 5’11″.

In the NBA it’s very common for players and their teams to lie about height. The most famous example of this is Michael Jordan. It caused a bit of a...

Mister, we could use a man like Patrick Vieira again

by Tim on Jul 15, 2011 • No Comments

I could sum up Patrick Vieira’s contribution to Arsenal thus: he played like a Frenchman with the heart of a lion and captained a team full of Southern, foreign softies, who brazenly challenged the hegemony of Northern Football, and kicked dirt in the face of the way that things were supposed to be done. Given...

Blackburn Point Shows City’s New Problem

by James Beckett on Sep 11, 2010 • No Comments
While a Patrick Vieira goal was enough to rescue a point for Manchester City against Blackburn a draw won’t be good enough to satisfy City’s ever demanding owners and fans. But expect more results of a similar nature as sides adjust to City’s new statute. City’s vast spending over the last few years has now...

Four Years On: The 2006 All-Star Team.

by chris on Jun 3, 2010 • No Comments
In life, four years is a drop in the bucket, unless it involves hard time and a bully of a shower mate named Benny. In football, four years is eons; if we were to reappropriate football time to equate real time, Germany would have a brontosaurus in net instead of Manuel Neuer. (Which sounds like...

Along with the recent dip in form at Manchester City has come an unrest amongst the fans who have began to question as to why virtually the same team as the one that began the season so brightly currently appears to lack energy, creativity and flare. It seems as though one way or the other, the...

A 3-game ban for Patrick Vieira would be good news for Manchester City

by Cathal Breathnach on Feb 17, 2010 • No Comments
There were a few raised eye-brows when Manchester City signed Inter Milan midfielder Patrick Vieira back at the beginning of January. A club who already has a wealth of talented midfielders amongst their ranks, bringing a 33-year old has-been back to the Premier League was quite a bizarre decision in my book. Since arriving at Eastlands on...
