Air blue over ex-Red Devil This sports presenter on BBC News 24 developed a nasty case of footballer Tourette's as he reported on Eric Cantona's return to football with New York Cosmos. To be honest, the "how cool" statement was offensive enough coming from a Beeb presenter but he decided to drop the c-bomb as [.

Today I am prostituting myself and as the title would suggest, I am appealing to the Asian Market for my "Hits". Now that I am a record breaking AA Poster, I would like to move swiftly on to today's topic. Total Football and The Wenger Way. At this point, I am about to drop a bomb on some heads, and would therefore urge the likes of TA to "Tin Hat Up".

So what's worse, United fans, having the worst offense in the league or the worst defense? Unless we get somebody planted on the bench that has a clue about how to structure a defense or import a player that's going to be vocal, bang some thick (or just inexperienced) heads, and do the organizing on the field, we're looking at another year wandering lost in the non-playoff forest.

Their Words "Right now all I can tell you is that everything is in good hands." CONCACAF general secretary Chuck Blazer. Other Sources US soccer team preps for Gold Cup match - from The Detroit Free Press's Jo-Ann Barnas: "Now we have to go out and get the job done." JACK'S 'BOMB' FIZZLES - from The Trinidad Express's' Keino Swamber: Warner told the crowd gathered at the event that he has been advised by his.

The main talk today in SPANISH FOOTBALL is the unilateral communicaction via his "twitter" & personal blog, that ATLETICO DE MADRID Argentine forward SERGIO AGUERO wishes to leave the Club. In a message to everyone, the player dropped the "bomb" around 22.00 saying "...Time has come for me to part".

Chipping the keeper on a PK then dropping this wonder bomb on him late in the game? Ooowee! This is how you show up and show out in a "derby." Eric Hassli, you are The Baddest Man in MLS, Today™.

New players, new faces, new styles, new tactics. Transfer season is always a fun time for speculation. Today, we got our first taste of what the transfer window offers in the form of defensive midfielder Lovel Palmer and defender Mike Chabala. But what do we really know about them? As somebody who's only ever been to Texas once, and never to Houston I honestly can't tell you much outside of what their Wikipedia pages tells us.

Liverpool is to fulfil next Monday's friendly in Oslo in the wake of the terrorist attacks which have rocked Norway.
The Reds enjoy huge support in the Scandinavian country and a sell-out crowd of 25,000 is expected for the clash with Valerenga at the Ullevaal Stadium.
One of Friday's two attacks saw a bomb go off outside government buildings in the capital – three miles from where the match will be held.

If Swans take the fall, they'll be falling with style

I saw Swansea lose 4-0 at the Etihad Stadium on Monday night but I loved watching them play. I loved it because I think they play football the right way. They pass the ball and they move. They make angles for each other, they make sure they are always available.

So if there is one thing I learned last night at the end-of-year Alliance "Business" meeting it is that it apparently takes two years for adidas to scour the globe to look for the most hideous color combinations of highlighter shades to use in our 3rd kits... well, that and the fact that the Sounder training staff doesn't give "happy endings" and Drew Carey likes pain killers (but who doesn't?

If you had tried telling any Liverpool fan when Kenny Dalglish stepped into the picture as Liverpool's new manager that a bomb much bigger than the plight that Roy Hodgson had left the club that finished 2nd in the league and was facing the worst luck in football history, they would have told you it couldn't possibly get any worse.

At yesterday's promo event for his new HE by MANGO venture, Gerard Pique detonated the footy gossip world's A-bomb equivalent as he gushed over his great life:

"I'm at a very happy point of my life. I don't know if its the happiest, but I'm having a very good time. I'm at the best club in the world, the best selección [translation: national team].

So what's worse, United fans, having the worst offense in the league or the worst defense?

Roy Keane, Ozzie Ardiles were great players and both are supposed to be after the Melbourne Victory job.
Surely they would cost a bomb - and surely we've learnt that Ange Postecoglou and Graham Arnold can play great football, much cheaper and they're Aussie.
So give another Aussie a go - how do they learn if they don't get a gig.

The local conspiracy theorists are celebrating as news from Brazil has given a "face" to the lengthened dark shadow over Brazilian & SANTOS player NEYMAR. The whole "Neymar" situation is at this stage boring for most readers, but this piece of news from Brazilian newspaper "ESTADAO" has dropped a small bomb locally with the Spanish Football press.

That's my new nickname for Sir Robbie of Findley, who hath just scoreth to pull Nottingham Forest level a minute out of intermission. The former RSL man hit his third in as many Carling Cup games by setting off a long bomb to steal one back against the dastardly rich (a ka Newcastle).The clip quest hath commenced, with all dispatches good and true.

When Gazza met Gaddafi Gazza has revealed he went on the lash with two of Colonel Gaddafi's sons during his time at Middlesbrough. The ex-England star told Piers Morgan's TV show that he went to Libya and went on a bender with the Gaddafis culminating in him autographing a bomb. He said "I went [..

A year ago the Galaxy couldn't get out of the CONCACAF Champions League preliminary round.

Now they're in the knockout stage.

Winless Honduran team Motugua meekly surrendered to the Galaxy 1-0 Tuesday as LA topped their group behind another trademark Juninho long-range bomb to reach the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals.

Right back at you Men. Now let's go get that kumbaya moment in Chester, Pa. and back here at Robertson next week.

Oh, and while I do seem to have the floor here. The Worldwide Leader put out their Top 10 MLS Goals of the season this past weekend from all games except the Dynamo win from Sunday night.

In which, while regaling Ben Shepherd and Chris Kamara with a tale about former Barnsley manager Danny Wilson, unwittingly drops a sizeable 'F Bomb' all over the shop...

The image of De Zeeuw and Paul Jewell sharing a moment of sudden, crashing realisation will surely soon find it's way into football's pantheon.

To wrap things up with the "What I Want For Christmas" series, we'll begin with a bit of a tactical aside before prioritizing the shopping list...

(In case you missed the beginning of this discussion: Part I and Part II are available.)

Our likely man in the middle?

In all of this discussion, we've curiously ignored tactics for the most part.
