    Epic photo of Henry last night. Even though I’m not a fan of Arsenal this is just amazing

    Just done a simulated draw for Euro 2012 (the real one is happening today at 5pm…or more likely 7.30pm after all the usual UEFA guff). If this was official we’d be looking at…

    Group A: Poland, Italy, Sweden, Denmark
    Group B: Spain, England, Portugal, France
    Group C: Holland, Russia, Croatia, Czech Republic
    Group D: Ukraine, Germany, Greece, Ireland

    England in the group of death? Ireland getting Germany? A rather tasty looking Scandinavian derby and a strong Group C? I’d take that as a draw, certainly make for an exciting tournament! Check back over the weekend for my reaction to the draw (you know it will be your highlight)

    Looking forward to the Carling Cup tonight, although I’m not sure United vs. Crystal Palace is on instead of moving the Chelsea/Liverpool game to tonight. Should see some very promising prospects in action, the likes of Paul Pogba, Larnell Cole and the controversial but massively gifted Ravel Morrison are tipped to start. Whether or not they’ll be able to cope with a decent Crystal Palace side is another matter.

    Predicted line up: Amos; Rafael, Smalling, Fryers, Fabio; Morrison, Gibson, Pogba; Cole, Macheda, Diouf

    A big congratulations to American Samoa, technically the joint worst team in the world…until now!

    American Samoa have beaten footballing giants Tonga 2-1 to record their first win after two decades of international football. Expect them to rise above England in the crazy Fifa World Rankings some time around 2013

    Has there ever been a worse week for English teams in the Champions League than this one? My money is still on United and Chelsea to qualify but City look like the unfortunate victims of the group of death. Fairplay to RVP FC, if he reverts to type and picks up an injury though they are in trouble…

    Heidar Helguson, QPR’s striker leading the line this term and how it could have been oh so different without Neil Warnocks man management skills.

    Read all about it here:

    OK major tip of the hat to @MCFC_daniel for this one. He’s discovered something on Google Maps for the iPhone which I tried for myself and rather enjoyed. I have a feeling my fellow Pubcaster Mr Coxon will be less enthusiastic.

    If you search “M16 0RA” it will bring up Old Trafford. If you then search “Major Shithole” it will place a pin slap bang in the middle of the pitch. Lovely

    A "Major Shithole" according to Google Maps?
