International Week

How boring is it to be an England Fan? I know the lads won tonight but I had to switch off at half time.   Malouda is now being really strongly linked with Arsenal. We had already stated that he was being linked with Arsenal in early May but the market is moving quickly now and the French Midfielder fancies a move to the Gooners although money may take him to the chavs. This could be the reason Arsene has let Ribery begin talks with Bayern. 

 Hleb won a penalty for Belarus tonight away at Bulgaria but the team lost 2-1. Alex showed his human side yesterday when he met a group from the Bulgarian Supporters Club and spent loads of time with them signing autographs etc. He must have been shocked to land in Bulgaria and to get a welcoming committee.  On the International front Freddie did a full 90 tonight for the Swede’s in a 5-nil win against Iceland. Lehmann also kept his place in the Germany team as he promised. He also played the full 90. Gallas was in the French side but their was no place for Gael Clichy. Great news for Cesc who played 67 minutes for the Spanish. As for England, I have slated them as above, Beckham was again the match winner. Showing what McLaren knows about picking the best players in their positions, he’ll probably drop Becks again even though he has set up the 4 England goals in the last 2 matches, let’s hope England can do the obvious and qualify for the Euros’. 

Arsenal.com embraced the positive impact Clichy has made on the Arsenal team after Casher went for the Cash. Gael has had a great season and it has earned him Arsenal’s fourth best player of the season. I think next season Gael will go onto to be the best left-back in the English league.   

Fair play to Ajax for keeping the cost of tickets down at the Amsterdam tournament, only £26 per day. Not bad especially with the talent on show. With Easyjet doing flights for just £50 it’s a cheap little trip for the red-light connoisseurs’.
