Quotes of the week 3:30pm on 17 Nov 2009 Good job Chris. But I still think that the old style of this page was better.
Morbo, 'El Mega Duelo' and Mourinho 11:45am on 15 Sep 2009 I just cannot make sense of the 40m Barca paid to Inter for the swap deal. Is that solely because of the age difference between the players?
Maradona lights up Scotland friendly 01:19am on 12 Nov 2008 There's huge time-gap between Pele's years and Maradona's years. Obviously, football is getting forward in terms of techniques and tactics. I don't see how Pele beats Maradona in being the best footballer ever.
Reffing hell! 10:56am on 30 Sep 2008 LOL.
Seriously though, why does such exceptional players as CR bear the label of "diver"? Do they have to dive? (I agree that CR didn't dive in the last penalty decision.) And the way Palacios lept (not dived) takes some practice to master :)

Is the EPL the most diving-prone league in the world? Or other leagues also have this problem in the same or even larger magnitude?
Walcott and Capello stun Croatia 01:52am on 11 Sep 2008 Yes Phil, I always feared that you would have to eat your words about the exclusion of Michael Owen. It was a scintillating performance by England and I believe that England have got their best manager in Capello in recent times.
England must raise game in Zagreb 01:49am on 07 Sep 2008 Good blog Phil.
England main problem is the supply of good balls from the midfield to the strikers. I believe that David Beckham's inclusion will go some way in solving this problem. You are right that Rooney was hopelessly off his mark. It seemed to me that toward the end of the game Rooney was playing a little deep. I guess it was for the lack of supply of good balls.
