The Arsenal Team of the Decade (1997-2007)

Image
When Arsene Wenger took charge of the Arsenal Football Club in October 2006 he was relatively unknown in the English football community. Since his arrival, however, Wenger has transformed Arsenal into a successful, multi-national side with a strong emphasis on stylish, attacking football. As a passionate supporter of Arsenal for the past ten years I have had the privilege to witness Wenger's entire tenure as manager of the club. In that time I have watched the club win the Premier League title three times (1998, 2002 & 2004), the FA Cup four times (1998, 2002, 2003 & 2005) and reached both the UEFA Cup Final and Champions League Final once each (2000 & 2006 respectively). I have seen many great players come and go from the club from all over the world and been spoilt by some scintillating attacking football. So without further ado I am happy to present, playing in Wenger's favoured 4-4-2 formation, the Arsenal Team of the Decade. Goalkeeper of th...

Football Boots (Soccer Cleats) The History

Image
Football Boots: Earliest Recorded - King Henry VIII in 1526 King Henry VIII's football boots were listed within the Great Wardrobe of 1526, a shopping list of the day. They were made by his personal shoemaker Cornelius Johnson in 1525, at a cost of 4 shillings, the equivalent of £100 in today's money. Little is known about them, as there is no surviving example, but the royal football boots are known to have been made of strong leather, ankle high and heavier than the normal shoe of the day. Football Boots - The 1800's Moving forward 300 years saw football developing and gaining popularity throughout Britain, but still remaining as an unstructured and informal pastime, with teams representing local factories and villages in a burgeoning industrial nation. Players would wear their hard, leather work boots, which were long laced and steel toe-capped as the first football boots. These football boots would also have metal studs or tacks hammered into th...

Cristiano Ronaldo Picture Of A Perfect Footballer - Read About The World's Best Soccer Player

Image
Cristiano Ronaldo has been in sensational form all season for Manchester United, and his goals and performances on the pitch have no doubt helped to provide Man United with yet another Premiership title after a belated 3-year absence.  United winger Cristiano Ronaldo has scored 17 goals this season from 31 appearances for club side Manchester United, and is currently in with a chance of finishing the season as top Premiership goal-scorer. He is currently second in the top scorers chart for the Premiership, and is only 2 goals behind Didier Drogba who is leading the chart with just one fixture remaining. Though this award may be one step too far for Cristiano Ronaldo, it is probably one that he wouldn't mind out on missing. Cristiano Ronaldo is a winger and for a midfielder to score 17 goals in one season is an incredible performance. Cristiano won't mind out on this award though; the United midfielder has already won both the PFA young player of the year ...

Chelsea Football Club - The Story Of The Blues

Image
  Stamford Bridge Most soccer teams have an emotional link to their home stadium, but the history of few teams and stadiums are as intertwined as that of Chelsea FC and Stamford Bridge, their London home. Built in 1877, Stamford Bridge was an athletics track until 1905 when two brothers (HA and JT Mears) purchased it with the intention of attracting an existing team to play there.  When this plan failed, they decided to take the bull by the horns and create their own team - Chelsea FC. And so began 100 years of soccer history with many ups and downs along the way. The Story Of The Blues Chelsea Football Club was officially formed on March 14 1905 in The Rising Sun public house opposite the main entrance to the current stadium. A few weeks later, the team joined the Second Division of the growing Soccer League, and they played their first game (against Stockport County) on May 29, 1905. A long, uneventful period followed and it was not until 1955 that ...
