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.

Liverpool Football Club

Yet Another Premiership Target Bites The Dust….

This guy has been linked with so many clubs. Tottenham have supposedly had him on their shortlist for at least the last three seasons.

The Italians namely our friends at Il Corriere dello Sport.com announced last month that Huntelaar was in Manchester to speak to City.

Goal.com believed that a move to Liverpool was on the cards as recently as late July.

‘It’s true that I never wanted to leave Milan that changed when Zlatan Ibrahimovic came over from Barcelona – I then realised that it is better that I leave. It’s important that I move so I can play regular football.

I view Schalke 04 as a very attractive club. They regularly compete for the title. It’s a great challenge for me to help this club become champions.’

German paper Bild says that Schalke have agreed a €14 million fee with Milan for the Netherlands striker.

D’oh.
