British players can’t play abroad
The Premier League is one of the strongest leagues in the world but, despite this, not too many Brits have succeeded abroad; Jimmy Greaves was one of the first to experience foreign soil when he joined AC Milan, yet after a few months he was back on home soil (despite scoring a respectable 9 goals in 12 games). The likes of Ian Rush and Jonathan Woodgate have continued this trend, but David Beckham’s time at AC Milan, Owen Hargreaves at Bayern Munich and Matt Derbyshire’s at Olympiakos are beginning to break the mould.
Beckham can pull off any haircut
We all saw the Beckham mohawk or mohican, either way, whatever it was, it was nothing short of a fashion faux pas and was far from the pretty boy curtain hairstyled boy England fell in love with all those years ago.
Ryan Giggs should have played for England
We all would have loved the Welsh wizard to be donning the shirt with the Three Lions crest on, but it’s not his forceful grandmother who prevented the Manchester United star playing for England, it was Giggs’ own Welsh pride, “People saying I should have played for England makes me furious, I am 100% Welsh”.

the germans had a simple but unique plan, not just to play counter attacking football but to deliberately encourage the opposition attack and get sucked in, it worked a treat because our own great manager and others fell for it hook line and sinker, this plan also made some of their players look better than they really are.
