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."

Would You Swap Krancjar For Pienaar?

It’s no secret that Spurs enquired after the services of Steven Pienaar at the death of the last window.

Since then of course, Spurs secured the signature of some bloke called Raphael Van Der Vaart. Never seen him play, but I’ve heard he’s half good.

The only problem is that Van der Vaart’s arrival has sent Nico Krancjar onto the bench and it’s difficult in the system that Harry Redknapp is playing to see the Croatian’s way back in. Which is a pity, because he’s a hugely talented footballer.

In this so called Age Of Austerity would you consider a straight swap?
