the Chelsea v Wolves match at the Bridge on Saturday. So your regularly scheduled programming will
be interrupted between now and Monday, but unless I end up passed out in a pub somewhere for the
next four or five days I hope to share pictures and tidbits from the trip while I'm there.

By Walter Broeckx What is it that drags you to London people ask me sometimes. Well I must confess
that you can call me an Anglophile in a way or should it be a "Londonphile" or "Arsenalphile". From
the first moment I set foot in London, I felt at home. It's just a feeling I got. I [...]

So it looks like we have been hurt by the international break once again with van Persie being
stretchered off against Italy in a friendly with a pretty serious injury, reports have said he has
either cracked his ankle or torn ankle ligaments but I'm told that he has broken his
metatarsal.
After having a relatively injury free period over the past year his luck with injuries has taken
a turn for the worse again and you have to feel for the guy, he looked in real pain when he was
being taken off and I just hope beyond hope the injury isnt as bad as first feared, we should have
Theo coming back along with Vela to soften the blow but van Persie has been enjoying the best form
of his career this season.

In July I wrote a piece about Bruno Demichelis, a sports psychologist Ancelotti brought with him
from Milan. Judging from his experience in setting up the venerated MilanLab, it seemed he had
moved to London to help extend the careers of Chelsea's older players. The latest from Cobham
suggests that he's turning to an unlikely source – meditation – to take the science much
further.

It was great to see the U.S. qualify for the World Cup and I think that's great for American
soccer, but as a Swede, of course I'm upset that we couldn't qualify. Our biggest rival is Denmark
and we knocked them out last qualification round and unfortunately they knocked us out this
time.
And they are much more relaxed here in Seattle.

Chelsea trounced Blackburn Rovers 5-0 after a defeat against Aston Villa the week before which
keeps them out in front, though in a rather less spectacular points lead.
