The Offside 12 November @ 01:43 AM EST
This video quickly goes from the worst non-offside call in history to the worst offside trap in
history to the worst goalkeeping in history. In essence this video should have all its copies burn
and rid from the earth so as to avoid being viewed by a young, impressionable footballer. There are
three clips: in the [.

Three Tommies sat in a trench one day,
Discussing the war, in the usual way,
They talked of the mud, and they talked of the Hun,
Of what was to do, and what had been done,
They talked about rum, and – 'tis hard to believe –
They even found time to speak about leave.

So, the "story" that David N'gog took a dive against Birmingham to win a crucial penalty is
funny to me because it isn't really a story at all. Of course, it is in Birmingham where everyone
is ga-ga over the "cheating" of Mr. N'Gog and those disgusting footballers from Liverpool. I
wonder if the fans in Birmingham are as honest as they want Liverpool and N'Gog to be.

The painful defeat against Liverpool last season was one of the lowest points for the club in
several years. Whilst we can point to the whole team for under performing, it's hard to look past
the crucial flaws in Nemanja Vidic's game that day. Why on earth he allowed the ball to bounce when
Fernando Torres was approaching, I'll never know stick it in the bloody stands!

Some Thai politician has suggested that ASEAN bid formally for the World Cup in 2018. Christ, the
things these people do for a few inches. Column inches I meant.
First, there is no way on this earth 10 nations can host a World Cup. Second there is no way ASEAN
can agree on anything long enough to host anything beyond a gob fest for other politicians.

It seems Barcelona has been brought to earth by the lack of depth in the forward line, as is shown

Manchester City's oil-rich owners have consented to the deal to bring Robinho to the Camp Nou

I know this sounds a bit weird given the circumstances and the fact that Ronaldinho hasn't
played good football since 2006. But yes, he won the Golden Foot award. As we know, though, the
point of the award is to celebrate a player's (the ones over 28 years old) career and overall
accomplishments, judged by a jury made of international journalists.

Well, final score: Conor Casey 2, Inter-nets 0. Seriously, how on earth is the one U.S. game that
nobody could see was one of the best efforts, and most entertaining soccer games in a recent

1-0, rallied to win 3-2 and punched a ticket to the 2010 World Cup.

writer, but I hope you guys enjoy this little change up.

Contrary to the last one, Arsenal go into this new International break with plenty to smile
about. Back-to-back wins, six goals, players clicking together, Cesc Fabregas back to his best and
we're also closer to the top of the table.
Writing about such an incredible win comes easy, reason why I prefer amongst other things of
course to expand a little on Abou Diaby.

The Mexican Football Federation Association officially withdrew its bid to host the 2018 or 2022
World Cups. Ten countries remain in the process, with the United States the only CONCACAF
representative. "Even though Mexico, one of the biggest football nations on earth and host of two
FIFA World Cups, has finally opted to withdraw its bid to stage a third edition, FIFA wishes to
thank the whole Mexican football family for having taken part in.

Background: Blanco is like Neil Diamond. You either love him or you hate him.
Either way, you can't deny that he is one heck of a soccer player. The man was born to play the

living legend.

We love a man that makes a statement. And Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola's statement seems to

We've never been as environmentally friendly as we should be, but suddenly we feel compelled to
dust off our Brita filter, grow our own alcohol and start an eco-friendly cosmetics line.

Whilst most clubs are fawning over the internet in search of stories relating to brand spanking
new signings us Liverpool fans will just have to make do with what we have, which is a very capable
squad that is not nearly large or deep enough to withstand injury or loss of form from our big
names.

Good Morning Everyone,
The draw for this seasons Champions League qualifying round has been made. The Gunners have
drawn Dutch champions AZ Alkmaar, Greek champions Olympiacos and Champions League newcomers
Standard Liege in Group H.

chickens before they hatch either.

Hughes to spend nothing on a player, now that's a novelty!
Manchester City boss Mark Hughes has made his most surprising move of the summer to try
and snap up Brazilian left back Sylvinho on a free transfer.
Big-spending Hughes, set to complete a £22m deal for Everton's Joleon Lescott this week, met
with former Arsenal full-back Sylvinho when City played their prestigious friendly at Barcelona's
Nou Camp last week.
