Briefly:

*Don't forget, the second MLS playoff game between the Columbus Crew and Real Salt Lake is scheduled for 5 o'clock today on ESPN2.

A 400 mile round-trip by train to Weston-Super-Mare (or WSM as it should universally be known) to see two teams placed 22nd and 23rd respectively in the Conference South. An act of madness or one of inordinately sane men! Click to continue reading...

Well here we are. It's almost Football O'Clock.

As per usual Arsene spoke to the media yesterday so there are bits and pieces from that to get through. More up to date team news sees us without Eduardo, as expected, Carlos Vela, as expected due to his travel arrangements, Nicklas Bendtner who picked up an injury in training and Gael Clichy who will be replaced by Kieran Gibbs.
