    Life after Chang

    Like the always present but never promising significant other, we've been with Chang for over 10 years now. An underwhelming marriage that signifies a "you'll do" attitude, the partnership has symbolised more than a decade of under-achievement. Our "lucrative" £5.3m-a-year (£16m over 3)...

    They're not playing for the manager & they're not playing for the badge.

    Has the manager lost the dressing room? Most definitely. That's not the worst part though. Managers lose the players trust all the time. Happened to Moyes at United and it happened to Mourinho at Chelsea. The most disgusting, shameful and even hurtful part is that they're not playing for the...

    Set Pieces - Corners in particular

    So what's the deal with corners these days, eh? I know it seems hasty, after all we're only one game into the new season and players are bound to be a bit rusty and all that, but wasn't it the same last season?
