10.03 – A quick Saturday morning round-up ahead of today’s big derby game.

Robert Pires is convinced people hate Arsenal more than they hate Manchester United. I’m not 100% sure he’s on the right track here. Yes, United are the favourites of Sky and ITV, but not the people in general. After a good old rant, Bob says “But it brings us closer together as a team – especially if all it is about is this old English idea we are too ‘international’ and we don’t have enough English players in our squad.”

So that’s all good then. A Guardian piece on Tony Adams. With a right back shortage ahead of us with Lauren’s upcoming suspsension, AW has been talking about his options. He reckons he could 1- Move Kolo to right back, 2 – play rookie Justin Hoyte or 3 – Recall Mortitz Volz from Fulham, which he seems reluctant to do. Moving Kolo would be seriously foolish, not just because it would mean the return of the dreaded Cyganator, but because he’s playing so well there.

Ashley Cole says the Kiev win was the best day of his life. Dennis Bergkamp is unlikely to go to Milan according to AW, who said “I think that I’ve accepted it is too difficult to travel to a game on Tuesday after a match on the Saturday so, spontaneously, I would say that I have a big doubt about that.”

That means it’ll be one goal in 8 years in Europe Wiltord against Cannavaro and Co. Great.

Ok, I’ve got to go watch my daughter play a match against the formidable Cabannyes School side. First one to tackle here is getting a punch in the brain. More later.
