"Dude, Where's My Comment?"

Rest assured, Kickettes, we have far better things to do than mine all of the daily comment threads ourselves for hours on end, which is why when we did a site revamp roughly two years ago, we switched to a new moderating system.

In our best performance this year we humiliated a struggling Blackburn Rovers with our superior attacking display.

The beginning of this article was written before our win over Blackburn Rovers yesterday.

Here we are, now our fourth game without another win in the Premier league, and the best we could do was a nil-nil draw.

While we're on the subject of Gary Neville, do the England rugby bods really want a man who had to be forcibly removed from a town hall after throwing a glitter-bomb at Republican US presidential candidate Rick Santorum during a flesh-presser in Florida the other day to be the man to lecture their troops on national pride and sporting morals?

Once again, the Serie A has resumed after a long, cold winter, starting off once more with Franco Colomba's final game at Parma, a 5-0 defeat against an Inter side that has now won five games on the trot and lie in 5th place in the table, a point behind Lazio, who have been dealt a 4-0 gubbing by the club that Mattia Destro plays for.

Is Mehmet worse than Vitaslav?
Arguably they are about the same - although Mem hasn't had a lot of time to work his magic, I'd argue his appointment from Feb should have shown us some better football, better structure than what we've seen.
Should he be sacked?
Who knows but the Board gave him his chance, also Francis Awaritefe.

I can explain. This morning, I went to the official UEFA website to look at their stream for the draw, but my desire to view this tasteful spectacle was dashed against the flying rocks from James Cameron's political science fiction blockbuster Avatar (That was an enjoyable figure of speech, regardless of relevance.

Every week during the season, the languagecaster team will explain a football headline that has appeared in the English-speaking press and this week we feature the Stoke City-Liverpool Premier League game.

Last night was a pretty cool experience, above and beyond the result. Thanks to Dave (and Arlo, in a roundabout way) it was my first foray into GA. That is certainly a unique experience that I'd recommend to anyone (except maybe those bringing young children). On the one hand, it's a lot of work jumping around and singing for 90 minutes (or 120 minutes, if your team decides to let some Panamanian minnows into the game for some reason) and you lose some perspective on the match - both visually and emotionally - but you're putting yourself in the middle of the cauldron of fan energy that defines the fan experience in Seattle (and elsewhere in Cascadia).

If you have not been watching the women's World Cup, you should. Today Brazil beat Norway 3-0 and Marta showed once again why she is so brilliant.

There is no player out there with her skills, vision of the game, moves, speed and coolness. I will give special attention to this coolness, how she waits for the perfect time to act and how she can clearly see when to do so.

With the last game out of the way and a football-free summer upon us (unless you get turned on by the Under 21s), I thought it might be a good idea to examine our season through the prism of the headlines that have accompanied the daily post here on Arsenal Arsenal.

With a new post every day and a long season, I'm breaking it up into sections, starting today with August, September and October.

Fairly quiet today so far, but there is a little bit of news. Enjoy your orange slices!

YouTube was discovered from 'neath its rocks in the resource rich tundra of Siberia for moments like the one Cristian Chivu enjoyed on Thursday. Displeased by...not really sure what, Chivu punched an entirely unaware Marco Rossi in the face. Not his finest moment.

But admit it: despite the fact that he should be taken back to medieval times for throwing a punch from the back, that's some of the best punching form you've ever seen on a pitch.
