Sponsored post It is a blow to lose your best player but the top teams can always live without one
player, even if it's their best player. One-man teams really struggle once their star player is
missing. One example of a one man team is Arsenal. This may be controversial: they admittedly have
some top players such [.
A:3K event to put players' skills to the test Six of the world's best footballers are going to

speculation that Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney will complete [.
Amazing advert While OTP was battling the technical gremlins last week, we failed to bring you
Nike's Write The Future advert. We are compelled to do so now on the grounds that it might be the
greatest advert ever. Any commercial containing a bearded Wayne Rooney living in a caravan and
Cristiano Ronaldo nutmegging Homer Simpson [.
A volley of volleys England goalkeeping legend Peter Shilton teaches Frank Lampard a few things
about kicking the ball in this new viral for Tesco FA Skills sessions. Shilton, slightly aided by
some graphical trickery, ups the stakes in a game of keepy-uppy with a Peter Kay-esque volley.
Computer-aided Lampard is up to the challenge, at least [.

Sponsored post You've been asked the question a hundred times already this year: "What do you want
for Christmas?" And while the true answer may well be a 50in 3D TV with a PlayStation 3 and a
year's supply of beer, chances are your mum/girlfriend/wife/dad/brother (delete as appropriate)
won't be able to stretch to that, [.
Purple is the new black You could be forgiven for thinking the message behind Nike's new viral was
that you can even play on the Wembley pitch with their boots. But no, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is here to
show you that our national stadium isn't the only pitch whose turf is constantly been ripped up and
that [.
Terrace culture's emotional side Remember the Puma Hardchorus and their touching Valentine's

football supporters would be willing to go so [.
Sponsored post We don't know if this film was supposed to arrive at our cinemas before or during
the World Cup (which would have made a bit more sense), but coming soon to a screen near you is
Africa United. The film tells the story of a group of Rwandan kids determined to make it [...]
Sponsored post Not all sports betters are brilliant mathematicians, so in this article we intend to
look at some of the very basic mathematics of sports betting. The first thing we will look at is
the probability of winning. If a bookmaker is offering 2/1, then for every £100 that is bet the
punter will [.

FA Cup fourth round tie preview
England fans around the world share the sense that they're in for something special at the 2010
Football World Cup. While previous tournaments have seen England's chances hyped up only for the
team to disappoint, the current crop of England players look more than capable of getting the job
done in South Africa.
Every England fan gave a huge sigh of relief when the World Cup draw was made in December. No
England fan could honestly say they weren't very happy to draw USA, Algeria and Slovenia.
Admittedly USA are not bad, but England should still beat them fairly comfortably. What most fans
still haven't realised is how [.

Africa's adoptive football outfitters celebrate a homecoming Puma is to African football what
Burberry is to chavs. So it is only natural that with a World Cup in Africa looming they would want

El Tel croons for England Ex-England boss Terry Venables has led a choir including Harry Redknapp
and Ian Wright in a performance of Elvis Presley's If I Can Dream in a bid to sing the Three Lions

'Arry? We suspect so.

Sponsored post Italy are the defending champions of the FIFA World Cup, and will be looking to win
successive competitions in South Africa 2010. Many experts believe that their triumph four years
ago in Germany can be attributed to the fact that many of their best players were reaching their
peak. However, their squad for the [.
Sponsored post After an unusual absence from the World Cup, Denmark will be looking to make amends
in South Africa this summer. Three previous appearances at the finals have been relatively
successful – reaching the second round twice, and the quarter-finals once. However, their biggest
national success to date was securing the 1992 UEFA European Championships [.
Sponsored post England were handed a difficult qualifying group for the 2010 World Cup. Despite
being the strongest of the teams, England were given tricky ties against rivals Croatia, Ukraine,

17,500 partisan crowd, John Terry and co secured a [.

They're light and fast (just like Messi) Adidas are pushing their new F50 adiZero boots ahead of
the World Cup. They reckon it is the lightest boot yet and, as such, makes the players wearing them
very fast. Each boots weighs the same as a frisbee. Hopefully that is not a recipe for broken
metatarsals.
You've got to hold and give... The sweatshirt might be a few sizes bigger and there is an ever so
slightly more corporate feel to it, but John Barnes has re-created his Englandneworder rap for this
new Mars advert. The famous World In Motion rap has been reworded (Englandreworder, if you will) to
encourage you to pick [.
Can I call you Wazza? Comedian James Corden has been helping Wayne Rooney to develop a new, iconic
goal celebration ahead of the World Cup. The Gavin and Stacey star struggles to get the necessary
enthusiasm from Rooney, before coaxing the England star out of his shell with a little routine of
his own.
Sponsored post It seems that the fact that all three World Cups held outside of Europe and South
America have been won by Brazil hasn't been lost on World Cup punters who have been backing Dunga's
men to be successful in the first tournament to be held in Africa. Brazil are the only nation to
have won [.
Gillette Visa Soccer Saturday Jeff and Kammy talk about how they would spend a £20,000 World Cup

Sponsored post Spain's performance in qualifying for the 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa was

var vaunit_id=542; It's pretty damn cheesy, but since it is raising awareness of such an important
