Jackson 5 - I Wanna Be Where You Are (Via: Armed Snobbery)


Good morning fellow Zinedine Zidane-esque headbutters;

Lots of action in UEFA Champions League yesterday and today. Look for a recap of select 2-round matches after next week's second leg.

If you're able to find it, check out F.C. Internazionale Milano take on F.C. Barcelona at the San Siro in UEFA Champions League action later today. Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be making his first return to Milan after leaving Inter this summer for Camp Nou and, similarly, Samuel Eto'o will face F.C. Barcelona for the first time after swapping clubs in the same deal. F.C. Barcelona sent Eto'o and 40 million euro to Inter for Ibrahimovic.


Enjoy the sun if its around, keep FOX News off the TV, and relax with my lady-friend Aretha.

Read an excellent column from ESPN's Harry Harris in which he frames Chelsea's recent troubles with EPL's recent policy implementations (HERE)

Read BBC's Chris Jardine's editorial on the recent Emmanuel Adebayor incident (HERE)

Also from the BBC:
"Manchester City striker Emmanuel Adebayor appeared to recreate his controversial celebration from Saturday's 4-2 win over his old club Arsenal after scoring in training on Tuesday. The Togo striker . . . smiled as he ran and slid to his knees in front of his team-mates." (Via BBC)

**(UPDATE) Emmanuel Adebayor accepted his three-game ban from FA (BBC HERE).**

In today's addition, I bring you Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Sweden - FC Barcelona).
