In case this seems out of context, you might want to check out Arsenal Season Review Part 1: The Bad and the Ugly!

One oft repeated line over the course of last year was that this was THE season for the ‘neutral'. I put that word right in the middle of an apostrophe sandwich because I for one cannot comprehend how anyone following any sport can be a neutral.

One of the main rules of the Intertoobz is that thou shall not repost, (or cross-post or go postal or something like that. I've never been very good with rules.). However, this one is something I noticed today, and put over on the comments thread of the previous post about the third kit, as well as on the DT Facebook page.

It's your Easter Weekend Wrap Special, where you'd better surrender your bunny outfits in exchange for tomorrow's Arsenal-Man City showdown. Forget about those egg chocolates and donate them to Samir Nasri instead because this is THE standout, Premiership match of the holiday!

The storming game at Stamford Bridge last night is likely to be remember for quite some time, if only because YouTube exists.

Late in extra time, Chelsea holding onto their lead, and Didier gets a flying slap in the face from absolutely no one. And then a cursory look around leads to a few more second on the ground.

Walcott – Van Persie makes it look easy…….but it’s not!

Theo Walcott is in awe of his captain Robin Van Persie for the way he can pluck goals out of nothing and thinks that the Arsenal and Holland striker must be a hot favourite to win the Player-of-the-Year trophy. "Everything is going his way and that is great to see," Walcott said. "The most important [.

Serie A Sister : Ibrahimovic And Robinho Are AC Milan’s Very Own Batman And Robin

There's something about Ibrahimovic and Robinho high-fiving one another that speedily conjures up the Batman and Robin theme song. Sure, you're now desperately trying to force images of Ibrahimovic in spandex and a cape out of your minds (your welcome) but despite all his individualistic glory, Ibra has thankfully, remembered that his superb goal in the 65th minute was only possible through his teammates, Robinho and Urby.

DTotD: Sergio Ramos elbows Diego Costa in the face

Before Cristiano Ronaldo scored with his seeing-eye backheel against Ray Vallecano, Sergio Ramos was lucky not to get sent off even before the half hour mark. He picked up a yellow card in just the third minute, putting him on dangerous ground from the start. And about 15 minutes after that, he casually employed a defensive technique that is usually frowned upon (keyword: usually) by elbowing Diego Costa in the face.

The MLS 101 series will be a "living/breathing document" in that I will continue to edit and update these post to keep up to date with the inevitable changes that MLS will make. I encourage you to bookmark the post so you can use them as a reference going forward.

In this edition of MLS 101, it's time to tie up some lose ends about MLS roster rules, along with player movement and acquisition.

Returning home after Christmas, I opened my mailbox to find a wonderful surprise awaiting me – a copy of 'So Paddy Got Up', the Arsenal anthology edited by Andrew Mangan of Arseblog.com. How my brother had managed to be one of the few people to snag a hard-copy, I don't know, but it was, to quote Arseblog's famous slogan, ‘fuckin excellent' to discover that he had.

Under Valencia’s Tree

Ads with footballers are typically cliched and formulaic. Valencia's Christmas video is anything but, opening as though we're about to embark on a Tim Burton film the soundtrack does wonders. Or maybe it's appropriately Batman's true underground lair.

And all simply to wish everyone a Merry Christmas.

Who needs Batman when we've got Robin! The Flying Dutchman once again scores the winning goal for Arsenal, and it was a very very special one today. Arsene Wenger was of course all smiles after the game and just had to sign Robin's praises for the umpteenth time this season. He said: "You [the media] [.

Holy Bratwursten Batman, the Zjermans are bitchslappin' us

We fooled them yet again!

Back in 1986, we played Germany ( West-Germany to be precise) in a friendly and we missed a couple of regulars ( Van Basten and Rijkaard weren't there) while Arnold Muhren and Erwin Koeman weren't selected yet.

Somebody on the Czech physio team is a just little too enamored with Christopher Nolan. Or maybe he loves Tim Burton. I vote for Tim Burton.


Where does he get those wonderful toys?

For those too young to remember, my caption is an homage to the original Batman film, directed by Burton and starring the greatest Dark Knight, Michael Keaton.

I'll give you a second to let that headline sink in. It's strong, you can't deny that. Where one might take issue, though, is in the folly behind stumping up twenty-odd million pounds for a winger, when the last we heard was that dross would very much need to be shipped out before we could start thinking about players coming in the other direction.

In which Schalke 'keeper Manuel Neuer leans in for the kiss only to get slapped across the mush by a supporter presumably as a result of Neuer's reluctance to sign a new deal at the club as the squad make their way through Gelsenkirchen to show off the DFB Pokal trophy that they won on Saturday courtesy of the 5-0 whupping they doled out to second division Duisburg.

Southern Italian Round-Up – Napoli Inflict More Woe On Bari, Simeone Fails To Halt Catania’s Away Day Blues

Bari are staring down the barrel of the Serie A rifle after becoming the latest victims of the Ezequiel Lavezzi and Edinson Cavani show. A goal in each half from Napoli's version of Batman and Robin was enough to ensure that Walter Mazzarri's men left Puglia with all three points to leave Bari cut adrift at the foot of the table.
