Remember how I said that China were becoming Lyon's new best friends? Well, it looks like Aulas
takes this BFF business seriously because today Lyon launched a Chinese version of their official
website, thanks to a partnership with TitanSport, a Chinese sports media giant.
Pretty soon OL will be signing token Chinese players a la
Manchester United.
Thanks to Pies reader nahim1989 for this fine submission. I have never watched Naruto: Shippuden,
but according to Nahim it is 'wildy popular'....
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has unwilling and unwittingly admitted that problems are rife in
the club. He has expressed agony at letting the chance to compete for the English Premier League
slip through their fingers once again and has also sounded weary about the ongoing power-tussle at
Anfield.
The Sun today brings us news of the latest poor lad dragooned into captaining the England side,
journo Shaun Custis writes: "Steven Gerrard will be Fabio Capello's first captain. "But the
position of permanent England skipper is still up for grabs. "Boss Capello has settled on the
experienced Liverpool midfielder as leader for his [.
Goodness me, there's having a little cry and there's letting it all hang out in front of roughly
half the world's population. As REM sang 'everybody hurts sometimes' and John Terry must surely
still be reliving the moment when he slipped on the Moscow turf, hit the post with his penalty and
saw Chelsea's Champions [.
Coming as a surprise to absolutely no one, William Gallas has been stripped of the Arsenal
captaincy for his very uncaptain-like rant yesterday aimed at "Mr. X" (the good money's
on RvP). It's also being speculated he will be dropped from the squad to face Man City this
weekend, while the band will go to [.
Rio Ferdinand captained England on their latest outing, a disappointing 1-0 defeat to France.
However, the Daily Telegraph report that his Manchester United team-mate Wayne Rooney could be the
national team's captain of the future, if Fabio Capello's comments are anything to go by. Much
uncertainty surrounds the current England captaincy, with Steven Gerrard, Ferdinand and [.
One of Graham Westley's first big decisions in his return as Boro manager has been made today
with new signing Mark Albrighton being named Stevenage Borough Captain. Albrighton succeeds Ashley
Westwood who captained the side while Peter Taylor was in charge last season. Another former Boro
Captain and a Westley signing in his last spell, Ronnie [.
Stevenage have had a number of skippers leading the team out this season and at the moment Steve
Morison is the man that Graham Westley believes is best suited to that role. Mark Albrighton was
appointed captain in the summer after his move from Cambridge United. He replaced Ashley Westwood
who then manager Peter Taylor installed [.
William Gallas was not a good captain. I think it's safe to say that now, right? The fact that he
wanted to wear th #10 shirt while playing centre back was a clue, the centre circle sit down last
season was proof and his moment of mental last week was the final straw. So Arsene Wenger [...]
When John Terry broke his foot against Arsenal in December, many were forecasting that Chelsea
would struggle to last the pace in his absence. However, the Blues have done well without the likes
of their captain, Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba. What's more, Sky Sports are reporting that 'JT'
is hopeful of returning against Huddersfield [.
Many Gooners will be calling on Arsene Wenger to follow the above mantra ahead of next season,
especially with Arsenal finishing this season potless. It remains to be seen whether the North
London club can match the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea over the whole of next season's
campaign, although fans can imagine what [.
The latest football banter echoing around the terraces of England this weekend surrounds the
apparent crisis setting in at the Emirates stadium. The well documented outburst by now former
Gunners captain William Gallas is just the latest in a long line of public and non public showing
of disharmony emanating from deep within the heart of the North London Giants.
Morning all. I told you I was redesigning the site and everything, and that is still the case, but
it is taking longer than expected so I'm going to continue posting on this one for a while. Today
it was confirmed that Cesc Fabregas, one of the greatest people to ever live, is the new captain of
Arsenal Football Club.
