Otro sábado de futbol en Europa. De repente, como cualquier nube que interrumpe un precioso dÃa
soleado, una voz misteriosa resuena en el aire.``A todos los futbolistas con caracterÃsticas
ofensivas, hagan el favor de presentarse en la zona izquierda del campo de juego. Grandes,

120 minutos, un juego cambiante, buenas actuaciones individuales, cambios, tapadas, postes, y para
colmo, definición por penales. Wembley vivió una verdadera tarde de futbol, una final con todas
las letras. Se podrÃa decir que no vimos un partido brillante, pero la actitud mostrada por ambos
conjuntos fue completamente destacable.

Just when it appeared that Tottenham had seen off the many potential suitors of Dimitar Berbatov,
along come Manchester United, rearing their undeniably ugly head. Whether or not the potential loss

Personally I think Premier League clubs are way too uptight - everyone should go through the press
for their transfer business, like Madrid, Barcelona and now Milan seem to be doing. AC Milan
vice-president Adriano Galliani has said that 5 strikers are on Milan's list of transfer targets -
Emmanuel Adebayor (Arsenal), Didier Drogba (Chelsea), [.

If Tottenham boss Juande Ramos gets his way, the North London derby will have a bit more intensity
to it next year, especially if the Spaniard is able to sign ex-Arsenal man Lassana Diarra away from

£10m midfielder after [.

It was bound to happen and its taken longer than I would have guessed, but it appears that a
Chelsea player has had enough of all that benchwarming and wants out! Ian Wright last night paved
the way for his son Shaun Wright-Phillips to quit Chelsea by admitting the winger's £21million
move has been a disaster.

It seems Damien Comolli has been chasing this striker for decades! I failed to see what the fuss
was about when his name was first mentioned, but at least his club's crazy valuation seems to have
been adjusted, but still not a signing that makes any sense for Tottenham! Toulouse have
re-adjusted and lowered their [.

Although plenty of clubs have shown an interest in Dimitar Berbatov since he (or should that be his
agent) declared that his time at White Hart Lane was up, none have been forthcoming in terms of

Hotspur, who have [.

According to Goal.com, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are doing what they do quite often: competing.
This time, however, they are competing in the boardroom, as opposed to the pitch. "Arsenal and

Wales goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey.

The hilarious Nazi-inspired video featured in my last post is no longer available due to a
copyright claim, but's that OK. At English Soccer Talk, we don't take rejection very well, and I'm
going to post two other funny scenes in response.
The first video you'll see portrays Hitler and his advisors as Tottenham fans, who are upset that
their team lost to Arsenal again and seemingly can never beat their North London rivals.

There's still no news on what Cristiano Ronaldo plans to do, but that should be coming sometime

mattered? It seems [.
