Let me start off by stating I’m not a huge fan of Ashley Cole’s behaviour off the park or what I’ve read about it to be exact. But as a footballer I think he’s a terrific left-back and I really think he’ll do well at AS Roma next season. He might be thirty-three now but […]

Before his move […]

I believe this transfer, believed to be for a fee of around £50m, is a perfect scenario for all concerned. For Chelsea they make a tidy profit in the region of £28m, great business for a […]

In the past two fixtures they’ve held Atletico Madrid to a 0-0 draw last week and then kept another cleansheet as they defeated Liverpool 2-0 at Anfield on Sunday.

Don’t be fooled by all the antics coming out of Stamford Bridge, Jose Mourinho hasn’t given up on the title just yet. Yes he will need to select an unusual team but that team better compete at Anfield. I think Mourinho and all this chat about a weakened team and resting players is all about […]

Let me start off by stating I really like and respect Arsene Wenger. I think the Frenchman has great philosophies when it comes to football. He has certainly helped revolutionise our footballing culture in the UK. That said Wenger does like a moan. Sometimes these moans make complete and utter sense and then other gripes […]
