Aha..quite the story..but I'm surprised Terry is only 30..he looks mid-30's even already. I guess the Chelsea board believe Saloman Kalou must have been blessed by God because he is still at the club. It's no surprise they pursued Sergio Ag?ero last year and Neymar earlier last month. They have played well early this term, but having so many matches with Cup ties and CL it will take a toll on their bodies..a few things must be sacrificed. Such a pity, Chelsea usually perform well in Europe play...sad ending for them Blues. Hehe I can't wait for 3 Oct. It's at Stamford Bridge and with old players filling out the Chelsea roster, we should play very well. I honestly think John Terry is in for a bad day. A couple of lessons will be taught. Cesc Fabregas will show Gramps..er hem Lamps that is the fundamentals of the passing game. Theo Walcott, at this rate will play and show Ashley Cole what speed looks like. And Marouane Chamakh will show Didier Drogba what being airborne feels like. Young players compared to Old players. Red v. Blue!! Arsenal v. Chelsea!! The date is set...I can't help but see 6 points for Arsenal this term.

And it's funny how you, Pips and Arsene Wenger can not see eye to eye. Wenger views the game by the numbers, quite literally. He see numbers running about the pitch. He sees the dimensions for everything, the temperature, everything. It's quite ridiculous to listen to his post-match interviews. No reason why he's so good when buying players...by the numbers he is. Arsene Wenger's japanese is quite decent as he's done managerial services in Japan. We had to wait quite a bit to lure him to North London, but I guarantee you he was surely worth the wait.

European Championships 2010 qualifier, England v Bulgaria Friday 3rd 8pm Wembley...

There is a preverbal black cloud hanging over the England team since the World Cup in South Africa, the booing at the friendly against Hungry and the fact that Fabio Capello seems unable to build a credible squad, calling upon Arsenal teenage rookie reserve keeper James Shea (which stinks of an attempt to make up the numbers) just to complete team training sessions.

Kayoko has waxing lyrical about Theo Walcott?s recent ?rate of play?, impressive indeed, will Theo?s current form be on display on Friday, Theo, seemingly back in favour after been dropped for the World Cup, and gloriously immune from press cynicism, needs to raise his international game to another level, I just don?t think that Capello has the necessaries to motivate Walcott......Harry Redknapp has the ?dingle dangles? to lead an England squad to greatness, but the economics to replace Capello are just not presently viable ......

All the same Petrov (Bulgaria) could barely conceal his delight at Capello malaise......... ?Everyone knows that England have names and very good players. If you take every player from the team, they are very good players, but I don?t think they have a team. I don?t know why. In the middle and up-front, they have big names, they have a big manager too, but they just don?t do it,.............is it a good time to play England?, we don?t know yet because there are young players coming into the team who will want to show the manager that they deserve their place and, after their worst World Cup, everyone will want to show it, it?s a difficult time for England, for us, it?s ok, there is pressure for us, too, because we want to qualify, but I think there is more pressure for England because they are the big favorites, we also have some very good players, though, and, if we play like a team, stay compact, especially in the first minutes, I think we have a chance.? .........

Let be clear Dimitar Berbatov (29) announced his retirement from international footy in May so it is a little premature for Petrov to be reporting England?s demise....


Well about the Chelsea v Arsenal ? .......Oh I can see that Mr K has the Arsenal pink tuba out to polish, but as always it will be down to the unknowns.... the injury factor .....both John Terry and Lamps the ?Gramps? are out of contention for the next few fixtures, and frankly it is ironic that all?n?sundry are mourning their demise having been ruled out through injury, but their inconsistent form in South Africa should highlight the need for change and
to have a sustainable continuity policy.....

With all Wenger?s outspoken reticence against the implementation of the 25 man rule which is more semantics...... to ditch would make no economic sense, and Wenger?s public rejection that the 25 man rule will ever benefit the England team, he points to the numbers of foreign players in La Liga (Spain) as an example to illustrate how this will or can impact on the premiership economically...I think he is missing the point, the ruling was aimed primarily at the transfer market and is having a significant influence on the way managers need to concentrate on prioritizing there squads, and will achieve a level playing field eventually.... It won?t be painless, radical changes like these seldom are......

Harry Redknapp may be capable of leading England and he could be a top candidate; The FA insisted that their next manager after Capello will indeed be English. I think Capello would have been a great manager for England's national team in 2006. He looks hesitant on selecting players. At this rate, no disrespect, but I can not see England traveling to Brasil. Their starting XI are ALL over 30. Gerrard will be 35..Terry 34..A. Cole turns 34..Rooney will be 29 for crying out loud!!! They just need young talent to blossom. They have young potential with Theo Walcott looking the most promising, but other than that everyone is just standout “role” players, not stars. I don't know what England can do internationally. Mikel Arteta should help England when he becomes eligible to be naturalised as an English citizen..Spain doesn't seem to want him.

Lol..They should beat Bulgaria..just mix youth talent with some of the “old” players and they should be fine.

Under normal circumstances, this Euro 2010 qualifier against Bulgaria would treated as no more than a exhibition match, after all Bulgaria have not won a single match at any major international since 1997, have not qualified for any international campaign since 2004 and finished in third place behind Italy and Ireland in their 2010 World Cup qualifying group, Bulgaria are presently 43rd in Fifa world ranking.....

But it?s the chaotic way Capello named the England squad, delaying the announcement because at one point he could not determine who would be available, who was assisting Capello? Mr Bean? ...... Capello dropped Upson for the Hungary (friendly) match, a wise move after Upson?s woeful performance in South Africa Capello, so picking Upson and Cahill as central defenders for the opening Euro qualifier is more a step back than a step forward,.....

Capello complains bitterly about the way he is ostracised by the British Media, accusing the tabloid press of turning him into a monster, claiming he?s determined to fight for his job, the eff-ing nerve of the bloke, quote, ?We lost only one game in the world cup, after one big mistake from the referee, you don?t remember this?, I think so. But after this, your opinion about me changed completely, but I with this situation, it?s not a problem for me, I live, sorry, it is easy to be the best when you win but, when you lose, you lose everything. You have to fight and I am a fighter?.

Remember the Capello of Real Madrid, A C Milan, would that Capello have come out with such a load of old nonsense, so why then start with the same front row, Rooney and Defoe, who did a credible impression of Abbott and Costello in football boots, heartless and headless, Sorry Val but Rooney have not scored in his last 10 internationals outings ....Capello, ?he?s good, he?s back, Rooney will play with Defoe, I have changed some things but not a lot? .....it?s a farcical statement to make from an England Manager paid bucket load for producing frankly nothing...

Kayoko update on .....Mikel Arteta's dreams of playing for England are destined to end in disappointment.......

Oh Val .. Cheating Wayne Rooney beds hooker............

http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/943856/Wayne-Rooney-cheats-on-Coleen-again-with-21-year-old-hooker.html

My favourite quote........... Wayne Rooney told hooker: Let's score at home


http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/943962/Wayne-Rooney-invites-prostitute-back-to-family-home-for-sex-session.html

............got to laugh.....Sorry ..... "All he'd say (Rooney) was, 'Hi!' It was a bit embarrassing actually-seedy, in a way",

"I'd take all my clothes off, lie next to him and awkwardly say 'Hi!' back. And then we'd just get down to it?.

"Wayne was really quite plain with his routine. He wanted straight sex with a little bit of 'naughty' thrown in-but not too naughty?. ..........

Val he is still a great footballer...... ? bit of naughty thrown in? ...the mind boggles....

I've heard about that Rooney case. Total nut that boy is. And this wasn't the first scandal; it's said to be the same prostitute he had been caught with before. Of course Rooney denies everything. He said coming of age at 25 now and a father, he has taken things out of his life like going to nightclubs(when he first joined Manchester United) and he has been given the burden of becoming a role model. He mentioned giving a good image to younger players who look up to him. It's amazing things surround players like him. He has the money, the girl (Colleen is said to be a fashion icon in England), and the star tag for Manchester United and yet he stoops to level like this. Scary as well as embarrassing. Off-field conduct has become quite a problem for England stars as Ashley Cole has a reputation on causing trouble while at Chelsea, Steven Gerrard had such a case involving a 17-year old girl, and who can forget John Terry making tabloid front pages just last year involving Wayne Bridge's former partner. Usually acts such as this are punished as Terry lost captaincy, but Rooney was still expected to fly and train with the national team for Tuesday's upcoming Euro qualifier with Switzerland. Hmm, has Capello chosen favourites?

And speaking of Euro qualifiers, Philipa you said this was “supposed” to be an exhibition match. Well, it did indeed turn out to be an exhibition match. 4-0 the final scoreline and Bulgaria with wasted confidence. A sense of attacking England while “wounded” only to backfire terribly. In fact they played their best football in some time. Jermain Defoe, whom I thought and still think is the best striker for England scored a hat trick and Man City midfielder Adam Johnson got on the scoresheet as well. Oh, Rooney did not score an international goal, like always, but he did provide 4 assists on 4 team goals. That's pretty good I think. But they should have more of a challenge against Switzerland. They upset Spain in South Africa you know.

Sadly Kayoko ...baby Kai has taken the news very badly....



All joking apart when premier League footballers behave like tarts & slappers, kids ask ?why?s they?ve doing/done that?, Wayne Rooney?s behaviour on the pitch is as suspect as his judgement off the pitch, kids look up to Rooney and aspire to be like him, so it stands to reason Rooney, banking image rights close to ?6m yearly, and a family man to boot, would /should take these responsibilities seriously....Come to think about it, Rooney could done worse, he could asked John Terry to offer Coleen a shoulder to cry on....

When Rooney was biting chunks out the headboard, bashing uglies in-between Jenny gnawing his "bone" in the plush ?300 a night Lowry Hotel, (interesting Rooney booked jiggling Jenny through an agency that promised ?ultimate discretion? after Juicy Jenny was recommended by a ?friend?), you would think that Rooney would figure out he could be being set up...not on your chinny chin chin did he!!!!

Ok back to footy yes I got the Rooney - Defoe partnership seriously bent out of shape, it seems Capello?s patience has paid off, and proves conclusively I will never make a football manager, well girlies have no chance anyway .... lol.....

The Swiss match tonight can't wait ...assuming Rooney has climbed off ..........

John Terry's shoulder for Coleen to cry on? Oh God no!! But what got me most was that England has agencies for prostitution. Really?

England has found a young star to fall back on. Like I said, a mixture of youth and experience ensures victory. Capello took heed of this advice and he has pulled two wins scoring 7 goals and has finally put belief back into Pips' soul that England are still contenders. Adam Johnson was questioned by supporters when Capello called him up. Unproven at Man City, a wasted slot on the roster they initially thought. Two goals in two qualifiers and now people are asking if he should be a first-team-must for England. In my opinion, why try to fix what isn't broken? Oh and Rooney FINALLY scored *big sigh of relief, so expect Wayne to score again internationally around this time next year. And Darren Bent scored surprisingly. Why he played in the first place is a whole other question, but fortunately for Capello's sake he scored. No criticism tonight. Is this an easy group or England legit Pips, I can't tell.

Oh...hehe the nerve of that effing bloke called Adebayor. Yet another jibe at Arsenal while his butt is sitting on the bench. Shut that boy up. Arsenal guaranteed rakes in more money every year than City..buying high quality players in bulk doesn't necessarily mean you are a bigger club. Physically, yes they are bigger, but reputation wise, Arsenal are head and shoulders above Man City. Not in the same breath, nowhere near and will never be. At least 15 years behind Arsenal. Win 15 league titles then Adebayor can boast how big his club is, his former club rather in 15 years. Flip off son, Marouane Chamakh is better than you, Carlos Tevez is better than you(that's why Roberto Mancini prefers him up front), and Arsenal are better than Man City. Period. You want proof? We play City twice so we'll prove it. Whether Adebayor is on the bench like always or somehow brown-nosed his way into Mancini's favour, he'll be disappointed...twice.

Moto 2 Tomizawa die in horrible crash accident...that is tragic. Maybe he wouldn't die if no bike hit him when he fall from his bike. Now MOTO GP authority discussed about Driver safety after the accident and it should, like what happen to Ayrton Sena F1 more save now.

I'm not following jibber jabber outside football match, all i want is the game. As long my fave club win

Argentine VS Spain match, more like Barca vs Real and Real cant beat them. Still supporting Germany, Germany uber alles

These ?agencies? are commonly referred to as hostess/escort, Kayoko, however not to be mistaken for the hostess clubs/bars found in Japan

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host_and_hostess_clubs

Little more can be done to protect the riders, such accidents are impossible to prevent, the provision and development of advanced protective safety equipment and materials could reduce the number of injuries, but the fact that the rider is exposed to the obvious risks associated with standing on to a set rubber mounts exposed to the elements, perched on a two wheeled projectile could have something to do with it....

Sorry Val that ?Jibber Jabber? you refer to..........how does it go ?outside of football? ...is anything but ...Man U stand to lose ?80m over four years ..do you honestly believe that Aon want to be associated with Bonehead Dysfunctional who is prepared to treat his own family like something he?s has found under a rock, please read Aon mission statement.......

Aon & Manchester United...............
?Partnering in tradition, integrity and success?..............that word ?integrity?.....is not ?Jibber Jabber?.........

I would love to see you look Coleen Rooney in the eye and dismiss what has happened as ?Jibber Jabber?.....

Yes Rooney was integral to England success, Rooney's strike after ten or so minutes was all the motivation the squad needed, every single player from Capello to the coach driver praised Rooney for his "professionalism" but Rooney like Terry and Cole are a conundrum at best, however in reality are a serious liability, and Rooney lacklustre performance over the past six months can now be accredited to off field personal problems the root cause to Rooney's apparent mental collapses, the repercussions are yet to be fully realised, and here's a taste of what is to come, Coleen Rooney will categorically rip her husband's heart out both publicly and eventually in the divorce courts, no stone will be left un turned, he's Paul Gascoigne with fewer brain cells, it is just so typical of the feckless FA not to act now and draw a line in the sand, set and make an example, drop Rooney, Terry and Cole, make the mark on what standards of behaviour is expected from a player in a England shirt and do it now.

The sight of Walcott being stretchered off was a huge disappointment and a bitter blow for Arsenal, injuries will play a huge part in how the Premiership season will unfold...Yes kayoko youth and experience, Johnson and Gerrard It a strategy that has so far paid off well.

Adebayor is a has been his contribution has descended into mindless wind ups ......easy meat for Wenger to chew on .....
