Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola announced his decision to leave the club at the end of the season after four years of trophy collecting. Though everything from sitting in second place after three straight La Liga titles and losing to Chelsea in the Champions League semifinals to the many, grueling encounters with Real Madrid and the confrontational Jose Mourinho have been blamed for Guardiola's exhaustion, Pep says it wasn't any of those things.

Ezequiel Lavezzi looked Charlie Sheen crazy good whilst shopping in Milan three days ago with his goddess, girlfriend Yanina Screpante.

This is the first time we've paid attention to the Argentine model since last November, after she quickly appeared and disappeared from our WAGs who are barely relevant roster following that Twitter rant.

Make no mistake about it, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has created a buzz amongst Gooners that is only comparable with Charlie Sheen mangled on Tigerblood.
The boy has burst onto the scene in explosive fashion since making his first league start for Arsenal against Manchester United last month.

After sweeping through the qualifying for the Olympics 2012 in London like Charlie Sheen on Tiger Blood, the USWNT decided to put their emphatic stamp on the tourney and ensure a top seed. Wambach nets two to move her to 2nd all time in FIFA's top women goal scorers (131) and the US rolls to a 4-0 win that wasn't as close as the scoreline indicates.

A bit too melodramatic? No, this is Arsenal!

Can we get back in the game?

Everyone loves a good comeback story. Americans, in particular, are completely fixated upon this trope. Rocky Balboa, the Major League series (back when Charlie Sheen was a serious actor. WINNING!), among many others played this story to its full effect, culminating in the 1993 mega-hit, The Sandlot, where puny little white kids (and one tall, dark, handsome pseudo-Hispanic) showed that yeah, they could play baseball too!

I've made note of this before, some banners in the River End have been missing since July, one in which was Charlie Sheen.

Mock the Weekend: Arsenal hit rock bottom harder than Charlie Sheen

While we were happy to wave goodbye to the ex Mrs Cole around the same time as the divorce papers thumped onto Ashley's doormat, we must confess that the flurry of shiny activity in recent weeks has attracted our magpie-like eyes.

Charlie Sheen and Chuck Zito at Dunks; 'nuff said.I don't think I've ever used this forum to rant on anything but football. I'm making an exception today.
Dunkin' Donuts drives me f$%king crazy. I start almost every day with an iced coffee, and usually it's made by some kid, 18-22, whose idea of a regular coffee is a cup of cream with a dash of coffee for color.

"This guy I know. He's radical. I wouldn't f*** with him." Charlie Sheen

So off we went to the Seaside, and away we go with three points after a night of unimpressive football. Lacking was the continuity and crisp attacking display from Tuesday's second half in its place a sloppily administered 4-4-2 that the players have yet to grasp.

Arsenal need a Charlie Sheen transfusion

There should be a moratorium on statements like Samir Nasri's who before the Sunderland match came up with a bold prediction.

'We have the best schedule,' said Nasri. 'United have to play Liverpool, Chelsea and come to the Emirates.

So the big clash at Stamford Bridge has come and gone. And, like we predicted here and also here Chelsea beat Manchester United by a 2-1 scoreline. But it wasn't Drogba, Anelka or Torres who did the damage, it was ... Continue reading →
