Harry Redknapp innocent
Despite Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp being found not guilty on tax-evasion charges on Wednesday, Fabio Capello's sudden departure as England head coach later
that day has now opened the door to the possibility that the one-time
West Ham United, Southampton and Portsmouth coach may in fact have to
spend the next four years as boss of the Three Lions instead.

Why always him?
The outspoken and controversial figure that is Mario Balotelli has been talking up his footballing talents again, stating that he believes he has the ability to be crowned a future winner of the Ballon d'Or award.
However, the Manchester City striker has admitted that three-time World
Player of the Year, Lionel Messi, is a better player and the
Argentine's form will need to drop if he is to ever get his hands on the
prestigious trophy.

understandably furious with, as the striker prepares to occupy a place
in the stands for the title decider.

recovery.

all in his power to regain his precious armband, though .
