The Champions League Last Night
Seen as though we'll be competing in the aformentioned competition in the next few years I thought I better watch Liverpool and Arsenal duel last night.
It was a good game, make no mistake, but am I the only one who finds the constant Liverpool love-in on ITV tiresome? A love-in that seems to stretch across all networks. They were lucky last night and throughout the tie, very lucky infact. From the moment Dirk Kuyt, that wierd looking fellow, pulled back Hleb in the ....

France 1-0 England
Fabio Capello ‘merked’ the whole nation, when during the week he announced that Rio Ferdinand would captain England in their friendly against France in the Stade De France.
