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 Set To Snatch €12M Fergie Target!

Arsenal are considering an approach for long-term Manchester United target Andre Ayew from Marseille.

The Ghana international midfielder has a release clause of €12m in his contract with Marseille and while Manchester United have been keen admirers, Arsenal could now increase their interest after the sale of star Cesc Fabregas.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is now under pressure from supporters to stamp his authority on the transfer market with Fabregas completing his move to Barcelona, Emmanuel Eboue set for Galatasaray and Samir Nasri wanting to push through a transfer to Manchester City.

Asked about a potential move to Arsenal, Ayew responded: “Why not? You know in football there is no certainty.”

Marseille’s president Jose Anigo has also confirmed that clubs are monitoring Ayew’s situation.
