Why Juventus should be wary of bringing back Zlatan Ibrahimovic
Posted on 3 May 2013 by Mahmoud Ghellai.
Follow @GhellaiMahmoud In many ways Zlatan Ibrahimovic is the protypical modern soccer player. Tall, strong, athletic and, perhaps most importantly, has almost no loyalty to his club. One-man clubs are becoming more and more rare as the years go by, but Zlatan is almost truly an example of a soccer mercenary. He’s played for six teams since 2004 and is the world’s most expensive player in h...

Posted on 3 May 2013 by Mahmoud Ghellai.
Follow @GhellaiMahmoud The UEFA Champion’s League is one of the world’s most watched and anticipated tournaments, by fans and players alike. Not only does winning the coveted ‘Big Ears’ trophy mean putting your name into club folklore for the players and coaches but it also means large increases in cash revenues from bonuses, gate receipts, etc. A prime example is Chelsea, whom have bee...

Finding the Right EPL Team Part 1
Posted on 11 Nov 2012 by Mohamed Mohamed.
The hunt for the one! Finding the right EPL club is like a lot of things in life. It takes hard work, a little bit of humour, and more work. After being totally apathetic towards the game of soccer (sorry, I don't want to piss off Europeans, let's call it football), just like the NHL did, slowly and slowly they brought me back into the fold. It helps that I actually for the most part now kn...

Follow @GhellaiMahmoud In the summer of 2010, Leonardo was fired from the club due to poor form in the last few games and apparently a fractious relationship with Milan owner Silvio Berlusconi. Milan began the hunt for a new coach while stressing that they would need to cut costs and would not be making any major signings.

Follow @GhellaiMahmoud On May 22nd, 2010 a smiling Massimo Moratti had one arm draped over his head coach Jose Mourinho, the man who just delivered the title Moratti craved; the UEFA Champion’s League. It ended a 45 year wait, one that Moratti’s father delivered back in 1965. In the postgame conference, Mourinho announced he would resign to work with Real Madrid and he has enjoyed more succ...
