Well now, when it comes to football, one man has for many years been the most noticeable, the most controversial, and occasionally the most successful blogger this country has ever produced. His pithy words and abrasive style make him as famous off the pitch as he is on it. This man is Escapini. "I love football. Football she's a cruel mistress. She's, she's more than a mistress. She's a wife, she's a mother, she's a daughter, she's an errant child. She's a… she's a… she can make you laugh, she make you cry. She can bring tears me eyes. She can bring blood to me shoulders. She can bring a kettle to the boil." "Cause football is about nothing, unless it's about something and what it is about, is football."

Arsene Wenger Facing €25M Buy Out Clause

Despite confirming a deal to move to Dortmund at the end of the season from Borrusia Monchengladbach earlier in the week, German international Marco Reus could still make a big-money switch to Arsenal in the near future.

Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Arsenal were all believed to be interested in the 20-year-old playmaker before agreeing a £14.5 million move to German outfit Dortmund, thus ending speculation about his immediate future.

However, the trio may decide to rekindle their interest in Reus after reports in Germany claim that a €30 million (£24.7 million) buy-out clause comes in to effect in 2014.

Reus signed a five-year deal with Dortmund, which runs out in 2017, meaning the German champions will be in line to make a massive profit on his services, but will however be unable to block a move should the clause be met in the near future.
