A Tale Of Two International Villans

Unless England and the United States both exit the group and negotiate their way past all opponents, all the way to the final, this was the one game of the World Cup to bring all 4 Villans in South Africa into the same stadium at the same time. Based on what we saw tonight, [...]

4 Villans At 2010 World Cup Joining 19 Villans From World Cups Past

James Milner, Emile Heskey, Stephen Warnock and Brad Guzan will all be in South Africa this summer and now join a list of 19 who were Aston Villa players when they represented their countries in the previous World Cups.

However, no one is beyond criticism and I must confess one trait of Martin [...]

I Have Good News And Bad News…
