Second time lucky

Ah fucking crap. I do like this WordPress system but it’s just eaten the whole of today’s post as I went to publish it. Stupid thing thinks it’s Sol Campbell and my post was an enormous pie filled with four and twenty blackbirds. And by blackbirds I mean roast chickens stuffed with fillet steak. Gah.

Anyway, let me try and recreate it. I mentioned the story about Real Madrid wanting Arsene Wenger as their new manager and then said it was pointless commenting on it because it was never going to happen. Which is true. There’s no chance. More likely is Fabio Capello who probably doesn’t fancy the task of bringing Juventus back up from Serie C1 when they get relegated.

Then there was Jens Lehmann telling his German friends about Theo Walcott. There was a witty aside about how the Germans know as much about his as Arsenal fans because we’ve never seen him play either but that might change with little Mickey Owen injured and Rooney’s metatarsal buckling under the immense weight above it. Maybe we’ll see Walcott get a decent run out tonight as England take on Hungary.

Thierry Henry was complaining about the French fans at the Stade de France while reports in Spain have linked us with Villarreal’s Spazilian midfielder Marco Senna. He’d be a good signing for us and would certainly strenghten the squad but whether or not Villarreal will let him go is another thing. They’ve just added Pires to a midfield with Riquelme and they are going to need a physical presence in there.

And that was it. Just as well there’s very little happening, eh?
