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.

Luka Modric’s Fantasy 5 A Side

Luka Modric, arguably Tottenham’s best player was put on the spot by FATV to name his Fantasy 5 A Side football team.

His choices were interesting, especially when you take into consideration he didn’t actually nominate a goal keeper.

Five-a-side rules
1. Five players only
2. You must have played with or managed

While our Friday Fives series is a bit of fun with fans, current or ex-professionals, The FA Umbro Fives competition allows every five-a-side player in the country the chance to replicate the feats of these greats, with the overall winners being crowned the official five-a-side champions of England at Wembley Stadium.

The competition offers the best teams in the country the chance to play in the national final at the national stadium and follow in the footsteps of some football legends.

The deadline to enter a team is the 29th of July and the first round of heats will get underway in the new season.
