Mesut Ozil is a flop, a waste of money, he disappears in big games, he is not good enough, etc, etc, etc. I have read numerous stories (headlines) about the man that was once labelled as ‘stealing a living’, by Robbie Savage of all people. Robbie Savage who works for the BBC, I am […]

IN GAME MANAGEMENT – When match tactics are wrong you have to adapt during the match and Wenger failed to do so!
. Captain’s Log Star-Date 1,4,6 point 17. Spock thinks we should head to the Phondar system. I wasn’t actually listening to his reasons because the Phonarian ambassador was sitting opposite me.

Palace hard press left them exposed at the back & No way back for Theo and Jack!
Captain’s Log star-date 1, 6, 8, 7 point 6. I’ve been in the mood for a cheeseburger for a few weeks now. Not the sort we serve on the ship, a different sort. Maybe with a more exotic meat. Maybe we’ll boldly go and see what the Niberian wilderbeast tastes like. All in the name […]
