The Offside: Manchester United 16 November @ 11:22 AM EST

A Very happy 35th Birthday to Paul Scholes

While he looks like funnyman Simon Pegg, Scholes has been anything but a joke to United's opponents.

Soccerblog 20 October @ 08:01 PM EST

For life.

Wenger said: "I'd never want to go anywhere else. Touch wood, as long as I have my health, I would want to work as long as I live but adapted to my potential."

I have to tip my hat to the man. He is committed. He is focused. He breathes the club and the game. You simply cannot ask more from a manager.

The Goon Blog - an Arsenal blog. 01 October @ 02:00 AM EST

Thirteen years to the day a spectacled Frenchman signed a contract making him the manager of Arsenal Football Club, out went the old training methods and unhealthy foods and in came strict diets and training regimes. It was a day that not only started our ascent to one of Europe's elite clubs but it was also a day that started a revolution in English football.

Cocky? Arrogant? Do We Have Room To Talk?

Republik Of Mancunia 18 September @ 01:01 PM EST
