june 2nd
You may remember last summer was filled with spurious goalkeeper rumours, from Sebastian Saha to Oscar Cordoba, from Paul Robinson to Cañizares, then we went and signed Jens Lehmann. Well, going back to an old reliable formula, Sky Sports have today linked us with …erm…one second… Manuel Aluminium, who is a Celta Vigo player but played for Albacete on loan all this season.
This rumour is so spurious even the player himself doesn’t believe it. He says “It’s a surprising piece of news but I still don’t believe it.”
Quite frankly, neither do I.
Euro 2004 is just around the corner, and there are going to be a fair few Arsenal players involved. There’s the French connection of course, Cole and Campbell for England (who were pretty crap last night, eh?), Jens is in the German squad, and then there’s Igors. Yep, the ginger buccaneer, the Latvian Beckenbauer will be putting himself in the shop window and more than likely guiding his country to victory with his solid defensive displays and pin-point passing. Sorry, that was just a shoddy attempt to point you towards this link on Arsenal.con.
And …er … today is going to be mostly dry without cloud and a light south-easterly breeze. Maximum temperature of around 27-30C and the burn factor is around 30 minutes (7 minutes if you happen to ginger like Igors), so take care out there.
