Take the chance, your now 12 months behind where you wanted to be.

Today is the first day of that chance being taken!

What a player his old man was, one of my favourites growing up.

Surely Maldini and Nesta are classed as having long hair, Higuita too. With those three in it would be a much tighter match. But on those XI's bald would win, even with Diego...

I think this will be his last season at City, injuries have slowed him down and the ageing team around him look as though they are beginning to creak too. I say this as a City fan, but sadly I think we are in the twilight of a true superstars career.

If they manage (have managed) to persuade Moyes or Potter to take the role then I get it. If not and they don't have anybody lined up, I'm perplexed.

Yep! Dark winter mornings/nights are great aren't they!
