My favorite soccer team in England is having a bit of trouble and I feel the need to vent. They have one of the top 10 forwards in the world and they bench him b/c another forward is playing better right now. Understandable since they usually play a one forward formation but when you have 2 forwards playing out of their minds its time to change the formation. they are currently 2nd in the english league behind by one point due to a loss by a botttom ranked team. Trouble in the club brews with their star forward on the bench – that causes animosity and is causing (slightly downplayed im sure) arguments between the player and manager. The owner of the club is the worst. He is an idiot with money. All he does is throw money around and act like he is in control when technically he is; but he doesnt know anything so he should of course give the ok when it comes to soccer operations but not be the deciding factor on all decisions. For example, he bought a victorias secret model out of her contract just so he could have enough time to hang out with her and travel with her (cost him 2 million bucks). And they broke up like a few months later. So while his head is on some model….his team is out there not functioning as it should b/c he isnt letting people do their job, he is dictating everything. The last manager he had brought him 2 titles in 2 years and he basically would not let him operate the way he wanted to so he didnt really fire him but he gave him no choice but to leave. He is basically Jerry Jones with no knowlege of football or its operations.

Anyways check out their team site if you are into soccer at all in other leagues. The English Premier league is where the smartest ball is played in the world. They may not be the most effective nationally, but they are the most technically sound league in the world.
