News Roundup 2/23/10 - The One Man Went to Bed with Ashley Edition

 
And his mobile phone... Pic via Daily Mirror.
  • Though it is of course not technically Arsenal news, you know you secretly love hearing that Ashley Cole might leave Stamford Bridge because he's upset he's being called out for his... ahem... off-pitch bedroom training... [Guardian]
  • Of course, the difference between this hilarious situation and the other John Terry hilarious situation is that Cole did this while on club duty.
  • And in searching for a picture, I stumbled across this article from India, quoting Cole's mistress calling him "mundane" and "boring in bed." He's probably just used to being with ten men. [One India]
  • Back to the Gunners, where Nicklas Bendtner's ego is totally ready to bring Arsenal some silverware. [Sky Sports, Daily Mirror]
  • "Unlucky" Theo Walcott is feeling "as fit as ever," which means he'll get hurt in training tomorrow [Arsenal.com] because he has all of the weight of England on his shoulders to stay healthy, or something. [BBC]
  • On the flight back from Portugal with the Arsenal traveling supporters, Cesc Fabregas used the plane's PA system to apologize for their performance. Fabianski would have done the same, but he fumbled the microphone backwards into the net. [Daily Telegraph]
  • Wild transfer rumors and lies: It's now Manchester United leading the race for Raheem Sterling, the wunderkind from QPR [Daily Mirror]; Spanish right back Cesar Azpilicueta might sign with us, Man City, or Barca [Daily Mail]; and Andrei Arshavin is pushing for the signing of Russian goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev. [Daily Mail]
  • Finally, let's all remember that we have to root for West Ham United tonight; they play Manchester United at Old Trafford at 8 pm local time, 3 pm Eastern.

News Roundup 2/4/10 - The Flabbergasted Edition


AHHHHH!!! Pic via Guardian.
  • Apologies for not posting much lately, I'm currently battling bronchitis.
  • Also, I've been avoiding this story: the Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona rumors have been swirling heavily since Sunday's loss to Man United. Now they even include Emmanuel Eboue on the move to Barca. [Guardian]
  • More post-January window transfer news, as Fulham has entered the race, which Arsenal once led, to sign 15-year-old wunderkind striker Raheem Sterling from QPR's youth squad. [Daily Mirror]
  • The Gunners are closing in a deal with 19-year-old BSK Borca (Serbia) defender Stefan Savic, after he rejected a deal to Tottenham Hotspur. [Daily Telegraph]
  • "Arsenal is totally still in the title race," says Manuel Almunia. Well, of course he's going to say that! This reminds me of how frustrated I was with headlines back in November along the lines of "West Ham Will Not Be Relegated Says West Ham Captain." [Sky Sports]
  • Maybe of a little more relevance: "Arsenal is totally still in the title race," says Nicolas Anelka. [The Indepedent]
