Manchester United appear to be coasting to the Premier League title against Aston Villa this evening – and in some style.

Their second goal was this beautiful volley from Robin Van Persie after an inch-perfect ball over the top from Wayne Rooney.

A Swedish match between Djurgarden and Mjallby was abandoned yesterday after Djurgarden fans threw bottles and fresh fruit at opposing players after their side conceded a contraversial goal.

Mjallby players were also hit with coins after fans were left fuming after Yussif Chibsah went down injured, but no free kick was awarded. Mjallby refused to kick the ball out so Chibsah could receive treatment, and Robin Stromberg scored.

Sad state of affairs.

Emmanuel Eboue has always been something of a ‘character’, caring more about funny dancing and ridiculous baseball caps than actually defending, and he was always good for a comedy sending off.

Now at Galatasaray (and about to face Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter final), Eboue has not necessarily calmed down in Turkey, as shown by his impressive tomfoolery during a pre-match interview.

Rather than simply answering questions about Gala’s biggest match in some time, the Ivorian instead resorts to messing about with the interviewer’s face and blowing down his ear.

Strange stuff.

Not heard from Lee Trundle in a while? Well, looking at the evidence, we might just have found him.

1. A rather ‘chunky’ frame
2. Some decent skills with a football, including that roll on the neck he used to love
3. The guffawing Welsh accents in the video

Yes, that’s all the evidence you need, we got our man.

It appears that Manchester United’s new home shirt for next season may have been leaked online already.

Initial thoughts are that at least the gingham style has been excluded after just one season, because it was fairly dreadful. read more »
