Comenzó la pretemporada con el Inter en Estados Unidos. Estuvo presente en el empate ante el
America, aunque el sueco claramente tenÃa la cabeza en otro sitio. No estaba focalizado, la

Various things to discuss this morning and I'm gonna start with the marmite like story of Eboue;

Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti is a long-time admirer of the 25-year-old Dutch striker and a
move to Arsenal's local rivals would have meant Van Persie did not need to uproot his family from

A veces, sentado delante del televisor, mirando futbol, millones de cuestiones bombardean la mente
de uno, ilimitados argumentos que te dejan pasmado y sin respuestas. ¿Cómo y de que manera

Negados: esa es la palabra para definir tanto al Inter como al Manchester. Merecimientos varios,
intenciones muchas, aún más ocasiones... ¿y goles? Nada, ni que se hable. Tanta planificación
ha dejado virgen el marcador en San Siro. Decir que ambos pudieron llevarse el triunfo es acertado,
aunque no hubiese sido justo.

Is Michael Essien the most underrated player in the Premier League? He certainly deserves more of
the credit for Chelsea's recent success, compared to Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard and John Terry.

There's a pattern emerging here. Jose Mourinho leaves Chelsea, waits in the wilderness for a bit,
then signs up for Inter. All of a sudden, speculation is rife that Lampard, Drogba, Essien, Cole,
