Ah, the names that might have been....
While we wait for Philadelphia to decide on a name we look back on some attempts to name or rebrand
current MLS clubs.
Yes we all laughed at Penn Jersey Independence FC but there are other names which could have stuck
elsewhere around the league.
The MLS is beginning to build some momentum. With crowds up and the standard of football on offer
improving, making a move from Europe's top clubs to the States is a much more healthy proposition.
Here is a list of ten big names who just may give the MLS a shot some time in the [...]
There should be a rule that stops people naming teams as 'a dark horse' when it's clear as mud that
they're a talented side that are expected to go well next season. While it might be a reflection
that the Premier League has become increasingly easy to call, it's a shame that former pros that
[...]
According to this article in the Times, Arsenal are set to announce pre-tax profits of almost
£40m, for the financial year ending May 31. The results, to be released a week from today,
will illustrate a record profits for Arsenal FC, with the club generating a record turnover of
£225 million. It was also announced [.
Arsene Wenger has been looking to add one or two more signings before the transfer window slams
shut, and this source suggests that Arsenal's next bid will be for this very impressive Juventus
youngster. Arsenal are ready to table a €7.5m bid for Juventus starlet Sebastian Giovinco
according to Calciomercato.
The Gunners travel to Holland this week, hoping to take a giant step towards qualification for the
Champions League group stages. They are sure to encounter a hostile reception from the FC Twente
fans, who were overjoyed when their team qualified for this competition last season and will hope
that Steve McLaren's expertise can give [.
Mr. Wenger has cleverly kept his eyes on this impressive Barcelona midfielder and is now ready to
pounce for the Ivorian! ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger is keeping tabs on Barcelona's Yaya Toure. The
brother of Emirates defender Kolo Toure has slipped down the pecking order at the Nou Camp since
the arrival of Seydou Keita.
The Gunners certainly laid on some exhibition football last season, dazzling opponents with their
quick passing and movement. It was a blistering start to the Premier League campaign that they'll
hope to recreate this term, especially with a favourable run of opening fixtures. However,
silverware is what Gooners want after three potless seasons, surely they'd [.
The UEFA Champions League draw was rolled out Thursday, and Uncle Phil should be fairly pleased
with the outcome. Chelsea, the No. 1 overall seed in this year's draw (that's right, bitch), was
drawn into Group A along with Serie A runner-up AS Roma, Frenchies Bordeaux and CL debutants CFR
Cluj (Romania).
I am really looking forward to seeing this match tomorrow. this blog is not a pre match review
as such as I am sure that tomorrow Josh will have fun letting us know the expected formation. I
want to focus upon the opportunity that presents itself by the enforced exit of Eboue to the
Ghanaian tournament.
Twice Rafa has taken Liverpool to the Emirates and twice he's come out more satisfied, with his
team getting the better result in both cases. Away draws are nothing to write about but against
Arsenal and at this stage of the season, if Liverpool fans were offered this last week they'd have
taken it.

As had been rumored. The MLS Deputy Commissioner is now to be headed to Arsenal.
Courtesy of Bloomberg:
Nov. 26 (Bloomberg) -- English Premier League soccer club
Arsenal appointed Ivan Gazidis, deputy commissioner of Major League Soccer, as its chief executive
officer.
Here's the break down. What's done is done, and it's in the past regardless of the fact that the
result at Emirates last weekend was just pathetic. With less than three month to and eight games in
hand arsenal really has to push forward and make things happen. I am trying to ignore all the [...]
There was a lot of hype of this game for a while and I have to add that it duly delivered. I
personally was looking forward to it because for the most part this could be the season decider.
Arsenals needs to win the game to make sure that they are still in the title [...]
Arsenal have signed 21-year-old French attacking midfielder Samir Nasri.
Now that Nasri's signed, and taken over the number 8 jersey, recently vacated by Lassana Diarra,
Arsenal supporters want to know good he is.
Here's some video of Nasri playing.
Samir Nasri only played briefly for France at Euro 2008.

Liverpool has made drawing games their specialty, as they failed to capitalize
on 10-men Arsenal, after Emmanuel Adebayor was shown the red by Mr Howard Webb for soft challenges
on Insua and Arbeloa. Which now begs the question: do we really
need to hope Blueshite draws with Chel$ki tomorrow?
It's been three games in a row for arsenal now that they have been drawing in the english premier
league. After the fantastic win against Blackburn rovers its just all been rather slow. Not only
has Manchester Utd. caught up to them but also might take the lead given that they win the next
game. Manchester [.
It's taken a little while, but Alex McLeish has strengthened the Birmingham squad even more ahead
of the new season by taking a gamble on a Spartak Moscow player who will be a familiar name to many
Arsenal supporters. The Birmingham Mail reports that Quincy Owuse-Abeyie has arrived at St Andrews
on a season-long loan deal, [.
Former Chelsea boss, Jose Mourinho, has never been one to shy away from the spotlight. From
proclaiming himself as "the special one" during a press conference in 2004, to
consistently calling out United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, the Portuguese manager has been known to
open his wide mouth on many occasions.
Premier League giants Arsenal FC and Liverpool FC begin their assault on the UEFA Champions League
tonight, and both can expect serious tests as they target group-phase berths.
Arsenal travel to face FC Twente on Wednesday, before hosting the Eredivisie side a fortnight
later, and manager Arsène Wenger knows his players will have to be focused if they are to
emerge triumphant.
With the 2008-09 Premier League season now less than a week away, we here at COS thought it was
only proper to play a bit of football mad libs to bide the time before Saturday's kickoff. So take
a moment, put on your Nostradamus caps, and let us know where your team will finish this [...]
When the third round of Champions League qualification starts later today for Arsenal, there's a

On one side of this sparring match, we have Frenchman Michael Platini, the president of Uefa and
the other, good old Arsene Wenger, manager of Arsenal FC. Both were friends for many years but ever
since Platini ascends the lofty position of Uefa president, relationships have been strained.
Wenger and Platini were embroiled in a bitter [.

Market manipulation comes in many forms.
Prosecutions are exceedingly rare.
The free market is dependant on market manipulation.
For the first three days of last week, the global financial markets were plummeting towards more
realistic levels.
And bear territory was breached.

Thank God the Premier League starts again this weekend, so Man U are creeping closer to Liverpool's
crown of most successful English club ever but will any other records be broken?
Take a look at the records below, thanks to Wikipedia (I love you guys!)
Records in this section refer to The Football League from its founding in 1888 through to 1992,
and to both the Premier League and The Football League from 1992 to the present.
