I'd love to say that I feel sorry for Emmanuel Adebayor but I just can't.
The man has completely and utterly fucked himself. His career at the moment is right in the balance and it appears that nobody wants him.
It seems Manchester City, his employers, do not want him and even that shlaaaaaag Harry Redknapp, who tries to turn all his clubs into mini-Arsenals, has turned a blind eye.

The latest round of our shamless picture quiz:

Who is lounging in the sun? Hmm.

Last week's arse:

It's Noemie Lenoir, on-off squeeze of Claude Makelele. Well in Jon, who was the first reader to get it right.

Ok I admit that there may have been the odd time I have mocked fans of Singapore football and their lack of passion for either there club or national side but now I am delighted to have something positive to say about them.
When Agu Casmir scored Singapore's last gasp winner against Myanmar the camera panned to the crowd and showed two young fans wildly cheering and jumping up and down like idiots do when they have travelled far and secured a last minute victory.

Sexist new quiz ahoy!

Whose beach booty?

Last week's arse

...

It's Melanie Slade, WAG of Arsenal's Theo Walcott. No one got that. Pies 1-0 You.

We have a special treat for all of you readers of Arsenal Offside. The Manchester United game is on Monday, so we are holding a little contest to get you all excited. The winner of the competition will recieve this:

It is a limited edition Dennis Bergkamp "God Returns" t-shirt. It was designed by Lady Arse, in collaboration with Live Breathe Futbol.

After writing my match preview earlier, we have then found out the news that Frank Lampard will not feature in the game on Sunday as Carlo feels he needs to give him match practice.
With Spurs being such a big big game for us right now we need to put out our strongest side with the players we have available.

Just a quick one.

I suffered the ordeal of reading the comments of a cretin in the newspaper yesterday. The perpetrator or those comments was none other than the United player Patrice Evra you know the one who called our players a bunch of babies and then threw the mother of all strops in the World Cup last summer?

Frank Leboeuf has been quoted here today stating that he doesn't believe that Chelsea will win anything this season and need a shake up at the end of the season. He said:

"I don't agree that this is the turning point for their season. It is hard for me to criticise my former club but I said at the beginning of the season that I didn't think they would be winning the championship.

I think we all know what to expect from Manchester United these days. A team that works hard for each other and for their Manager. What you see is what you get and I still firmly believe that if you finish above Manchester United you will win the League.
Fergie has had a pop at Chelsea this morning as posted by me earlier, but stepping away from my Blue Blinkered glasses for a moment you have to agree that in certain essential positions he has a point about his side having experience and of that there is no question.

At 1030 this morning onwards the draw for the round of 16 in the Champions League will take place and right now I would take FC Copenhagen. Our potential opponents for this stage of the draw are as follows:
Inter Milan,
AC Milan,
Roma,
Lyon,
FC Copenhagen,
Valencia.

Chelsea have been drawn against FC COPENHAGEN in the next round of the Champions League. For me this is a FANTASTIC draw and one I posted below that I wanted!
As I also stated that could be good is the fact that the ARSE have drawn Barcelona!!. United have got Marseille and Spurs have got AC Milan.

Indonesia stand just 90 minutes from an appearance in the 2010 ASEAN Football Cup Federation Cup Final. They go into the game with the Philippines, really a home game this time, with a 1-0 lead and favourites to play Malaysia in the final.
All the focus no doubt will be on the Indonesians, what with them being the hosts, perennial underachievers blah blah but they will also have all the pressure and you can be sure the Philippines will be going into the game in a relaxed frame of mind.

I apologise for being slow on the up-keep readers, but I have just come across an article (in the Guardian) in which Balotelli makes a complete arse of himself...

After winning the award a jornalist questioned the Manchester City striker on the player who was second best to him (Jack Whilshere) - his response is both ignorant and arrogant:

"What's his name?

Carlo Ancelotti has spoken ahead of Arsenal on Monday and believes that they fear Didier Drogba. The Arsenal fans have had their say on my site earlier in the week and it's a fact that Carlo was keen to point out to the listening reporters. He said:

"Arsenal have fantastic ability and are able to play fantastic football, but maybe they concede something defensively, so we have to use our ability to find the right space to create difficulty in their defensive line.

Ashley Cole has spoken of tomorrow's game and has sent a warning to the Arse. He said:

"We've been disappointing in our last six games and it's a big contrast to how we started the season, but we have a lot of big players back to fitness and it's going to give us a boost.

Hello, Arsene

Who: Arsenal
What: Premier League, Round 18
Where: The Emirates Stadium (60,355)
When: 27 December, 8pm local time (3pm EST)
How: ESPN2 (DirecTV 209, Dish Network 144)

Why: A loss, and we are six points adrift of Manchester United, whom will also have a game in hand.

It's been a long two weeks without football. There's nothing worse in my opinion than building up to a game and it get's called off. For Chelsea and Arsenal it meant an extra week of recuperation which has enabled the likes of John Terry, Frank Lampard, Cesc Fabregas and Robin Van Persie, time to get themselves ready for what is now the biggest game of the season for both sides but for very different reasons.

Where there is money there is corruption. Where there is mega money..... you get the picture.

I'm a fair kind of person, yes I am a mad gooner and will generally see things with my little red and white tinted glasses on, but enough is enough when it comes to Arsenal getting bent over and fucked right up the arse by Premiership refs.

Here's a guest post by Dominic, otherwise known as ImperialWhite. It may be a little out of date, but that is completely my fault holidays and all. Enjoy!

As I write it's freezing cold and snowing. But in Fulham there's a drought. A goal drought – just 17 goals – level with Birmingham having played one more, and only Wigan have fewer (15).

Phil McNulty has started his regular, reactive oscillation regards Arsenal. Despite earlier protestations that they lacked backbone, it would now seem the "Arse" are busy exposing Chelsea's cracks, showing that the lacklustre performance against United is obviously forgiven and forgotten.
