Football predictable? Never.....

No one could have predicted Arsenal's spunktastic 7-0 win over Slavia Prague or nine man Man United's 4-2 hammering of Kiev last night (Come on..they had O'Shea and Fletcher playing), but a few things were a bit more predictable following last nights coverage on ITV........

1) Peter Drury using the word "perfect" about a billion times to describe Arsenal's performance. Then deciding to say it wasn't actually perfect because Theo Walcott didn't get a hat-trick.

2) The pundits comparing Theo's second goal to a certain Mr Henry. Not surprising considering Theo mentioning his finishing was Henry-esque himself in the post match interview. Calm down son, go and have a shave and think about what you have to do to get near the great man

3) Everyone thinking that Theo is the answer to England's problems and will become the greatest English striker in history. Calm down everyone. Theo was like a tourist in Thailand tonight, he couldn't fail to score

4) Those in the football world saying that Tevez and Rooney could be the new Dwight and Andy. First of all, they are way too ugly to be banging as many chicks as those two used to. Not until they appear in the News of the World together in a roasting scandal will I believe they share the same chemistry as Cole and Yorke. Secondly, Cole and Yorke won the treble, this Man United side have won nothing yet

5) Ronaldo making a meal of every tackle to no mention from Tydesley and then as soon as an opposition player goes down he says "they made a meal of it" or "he went down too easily". Open your eyes Clive

6) Clive Tydesley waxing himself over Man United so much that he failed to spot that it was Rio Ferdinand and not Vidic who got the opening goal. Listening to Clive is a bit like seeing your Mum and Dad snog in public. Completely embarrasssing and totally unnecessary.

7) TV Presenters using the word "Braveheart" to describe Ranger's performance against Barcelona. Do they actually have any Scottish players? Would you ever see anyone describe Arsenal as showing Bulldog Spirit? I don't think so

Dwight and Andy

When you think of great partnerships you think of Torville and Dean, Zippy and Bungle, Yogi and Booboo or even Delboy and Rodney. One thing all these double acts have in common was the ability to instinctively know when to back up their partner. Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole are probably one the best strike partnerships the Premiership or even the world has ever seen.

Who can forget the telepathic link up play these two had which often translated to ball work they did off the pitch too. The goal they scored at the Nou Camp is testament to how well they knew each others “positional” play, cutting open the Barcelona defence with consummate ease. It was often quoted that they would literally test out new positions on many a lady at the same time, to help further intensify the link they both had on the pitch. Rumour has it that no one is actually sure who Harvey’s father is, as Cole and Yorke regularly played a neat 1-2 with Jordan’s fun bags. Many would say that it would take Cole five chances to score one goal, but with Yorke beside him he scored more often than not on and off the pitch. They scored over 150 goals for Man Utd, including many memorable and important efforts. They cleverly conspired to drag Man Utd into the final of the Champions League in 1999, with some brilliant play to inspire a classic United fight back.

After the dream team broke up, they were reunited at Blackburn. Many expected the same fireworks but it never happened, it was like when DX reformed, even though it was the same people there just wasn’t the magic we remember.

The duo appeared to be inexplicably drawn together as they are now both at Roy Keane’s Sunderland, though Yorke is now plying his trade in midfield. Perhaps he will again provide the ammunition for Cole to produce the goals to help the Black Cats stave off relegation.

Here is a collection of their finest moments. This video is shamelessly called “footballing brothers”. I am guessing that this it just because they are black. Outrageous. Lol
