Fabio Capello talking about the Italian psyche in 2006: “We’re convinced we know more than the next guy.” Okay, it might be a little cruel but I couldn’t help but think of this quote when I looked at this picture of oul’ Fabio and Stuart Pearce having a chinwag about the England players...

Arsenal salvage 1-1 draw, but injuries take their toll
01:51 AM, Thursday, 10 January 2008
Arsenal struggled, and probably came away with an undeserved 1-1 draw against Spurs in the first leg of the Carling Cup semi final at Ashburton Grove. It was Tottenham who created the most chances and controlled most of the play, with Dimitar Berbatov especially impressive, but Theo Walcott...

Carling Cup SF - Arsenal vs Tottenham - Van Persie returns, Diarra on his way
10:15 PM, Tuesday, 08 January 2008
The big news for the Carling Cup semifinal first leg at Ashburton Grove is that Lassana Diarra has been dropped, and that Robin Van Persie is in the squad. Fran Merida has also been left out, and that probably means that he's on his way to Chris Coleman's Real Socieded on-loan for the rest...

Chelsea to get ripped off on Anelka as bid is rejected and Drogba wants to leave
07:44 PM, Monday, 07 January 2008
Rumours had been brewing over the last few months that Chelsea were interested in signing France forward Nicolas Anelka from Bolton. These were logical of course, because Anelka has been excellent this season, and has buckled down and worked on his game and temperament in the last few years....

Mysterious young Dutchman on his way
05:12 PM, Monday, 07 January 2008
Scary-looking Vincent van den Berg was one of Dutch football's brightest young prospects when he signed for Arsenal from Heerenveen in the summer of 2006. He was 17 at the time, and cost the Gunners about £30,000 and upwards. He has now joined Dutch side "Go Ahead Eagles" on loan. The...

Wenger continues long unbeaten streak as Arsenal beat Burnley
05:18 PM, Sunday, 06 January 2008
A fact that many people are unaware of, but which is still quite outstanding, is that Arsene Wenger has never lost to lower-league opposition in his 11+ years as Arsenal manager. His 616 games as an Arsenal manager have included 98 cup ties, but none of them have ever been lost to lower...

David Beckham trains with Arsenal - Photos
11:44 PM, Friday, 04 January 2008
All photos shamelessly nicked from the Daily Mail, but here they are for your enjoyment: I hope Almunia isn't offended that Beckham copied his hairdo.

If you ask me how silly it really is, then I’ll tell you that January is rarely as silly as it gets. There are always players in these European leagues that are unsettled, with new management, new coaching, and new “directions” because the carousel keeps movi...

Try as I might, the sight of one particular goal still turns my stomach every time I see it. You can watch it here after about two minutes of nostalgia and The Pogues. It’s a simple looping header from Wim Kieft at Euro ‘88, one with a wicked bounce, as well as another Dutchman standing...
