Since he first broke through into the Manchester United first team I&#8217;ve followed his story with interest &#8211; and a beard was never part of the script, surely? I was there when he scored his wonder goal against Wimbledon [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My latest football book is published by Hamlyn tomorrow. Gunners Lists is an official Arsenal FC book with a simple format: 250 &#8216;Top 10&#8242; lists of facts about the best Club in the world. The lists include: top 10 appearance-makers; 10 memorable penalties; 10 highest victories over Spurs; 10 lookalikes; 10 most common initials for [...]]]></description>

Losing one-nil to Latvia at home all but ended mathematically Israel&#8217;s chances of going to South Africa for the World Cup next year. Israel has only ever qualified for a major tournament [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m ridiculously excited by the growing possibility of Patrick Vieira returning to Arsenal. He was an absolute legend during his stay at the Club. My favourite memories of him on the pitch include his goals at home to Manchester United and Newcastle United in his first season (I was there for both goals). More generally, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a tough season for us Arsenal fans, but for me it has ended gloriously thanks to the demise of Newcastle United. There are few more deluded folk in the world than the Toon Army, with their endless &#8220;We&#8217;re a bit special, like&#8221; spiel. In reality, there is nothing special at all about this [...]]]></description>

It&#8217;s been a tricky book to compile and the end result is brilliant. It includes sections written by former Arsenal legends like Dennis Bergkamp, Bob Wilson and Steve [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been chatting with the comic genius Paul Kaye recently, as he has penned a section of a new book I am writing about Arsenal FC. It&#8217;s a very witty contribution, as you can imagine. I&#8217;m grateful for it. On a separate note, did you know that Paul&#8217;s mother-in-law was killed on an Israeli kibbutz [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sky Sports, you astound me. After drawing Hibernian&#8217;s name during Sunday&#8217;s draw for the Scottish Cup, their football reporter David Tanner told viewers: &#8220;The last time Hibernian won the Scottish Cup was in 1902 &#8211; the same year Adolf Hitler turned 13.&#8221; Yes, you read that right. I shudder to think why Tanner is so [...]]]></description>
