I was watching the villa game and thier fans was giving the west brom goalie a countdown when he was holding the ball. Good thing no Canadians were there to get all pissy about that.

Had something interesting pointed out to me the other day- Belgium. A lot of great young Belgian players floating about. Come the next international tournament they could make for a rather good surprise package.

Is Arsenal somehow contractually obligated to play Olympiakos every year in the Champion's League now?

dunno, do they have any promising youngsters who's top flight career can be ended by a brutal two footed tackle?

Do they really have to sell their captain every season?

Interesting that English and European football clubs have only now gained traction with Americans since becoming brands.
