Take a look through this fascinating picture gallery prelude to a BBC documentary to be shown before the World Cup in the summer about Gary Lineker’s trip to Argentina to meet up with his old adversary from the 1986 World Cup, Diego Maradona.
The pictures show Lineker having dinner with Maradona at his parents’ house in […]
Having failed to live up to his billing at Italia ‘90 and being outshone by a young pretender in the shape of Roberto Baggio for the Azzuri, Gianluca Vialli faced a watershed year in 1991. His Sampdoria side had won the European Cup Winners Cup the previous year and alongside Roberto Mancini in attack, Vialli […]
Real Madrid president Fernando Martin has drawn up his hitlist of potential managers to take over the ailing Spanish giants in the summer and the list reads like a veritable Who’s Who of European football managers.
With a list comprising of Sven Goran Eriksson, Rafael Benitez, Jose Mourinho, Arsene Wenger, Marcello Lippi, Carlo Ancelotti and Fabio […]
Arsene Wenger has cast some light over Patrick Vieira’s shady departure from Highbury last summer by telling the press that it was Vieira’s own decision to go. After turning down a lucrative move to Real Madrid in the summer of 2004 there were many Premiership followers who thought that the Frenchman would be leading the […]

Despite an angry backlash from the heavy hitters in the corridors of power at White Hart Lane, Rafael Benitez has refused to apologise for claiming that Spurs are desperate to offload Jermain Defoe and blames the North London giants for starting the whole affair.
Maybe Rafa has been hanging around with his continental neighbour at Chelsea […]
Slightly longer clip today folks but it’s needed to really do justice to the sorcery of Brazil’s forgotten idol Ronaldo.
Watching these clips from his career with Barcelona, Inter, Real Madrid and Brazil it’s difficult to think it’s the same player who looks so overweight and uninterested in the game now when he’s still to reach […]
Watching clips like this of Van Basten scoring sublime goals almost brings a tear to the eye when you consider that he had to retire prematurely at the age of 29 with an ankle injury after a few injury ravaged seasons just as he was hitting his peak.
