Easter Hero, Looking Back At The Gold Cup
Wednesday, 9 March 2011
Could Ignasi Miquel be the solution Arsenal have been looking for?
Ignasi Miquel…heard of him? I thought not. He’s not English, he’s not a hurly burly centre back, and he certainly isn’t going to win any awards for being able to put his foot in and physically dominate forwards, so of course you won’t read about him in the football news.
However, Miquel is a young player who could be very cheap, talented, and successful for Arsenal, whilst at the same time saving them the trouble of going out and buying a Gary Cahill or Phil Jones for a ridiculously inflated price simply because they are English and have played for a half-decent side in the Premier League.
The youngster may not be making his first team debut straightaway, but his recent performance in the FA Cup against Leyton Orient showed that he is a man who is indeed capable of dealing with the physical elements of English football as well as a player who has the composure and ability to fit in well with the Arsenal way of playing. The Arsenal betting suggests the side will win trophies this year, but they still seem some way off the complete package.
Despite this, the odds are that the press and tabloids are going to be hankering after Arsene Wenger going out and spending cash on a young English player (remember the days when Arsenal were accused of ruining the English side because the boss didn’t play enough English players?), an occurrence which if it became a reality would allow the youngster to fade away at the Emirates and try his hand at another club. So, let us just hope that Wenger keeps his faith and is as brave with Miquel as he has been with young Wojciech Szczesny.

Bentley looking to a positive future
David Bentley has finally made his move from Spurs to Birmingham, joining on a loan deal until the end of the season. The winger has struggled to settle at White Hart Lane, since arriving at the club from Blackburn in 2008 and has found his career at something of a standstill over the past few years.
Bentley has made it clear he is hoping the move can have a

Murray looking to end the season in style
You can’t deny that Andy Murray has endured a difficult season. However, having triumphed over Robin Soderling in front of a home crowd at the O2 Arena in London, Murray is now hoping to win his first ATP World Tour Finals trophy as he looks to hide the fact that he has still failed to win a Grand Slam event in his career to date.
With Murray disappointingly failing to progress through to the semi-final stages of the competition in London last season, he along with those who regularly place tennis bets will realise all too well that a solid start is not enough to ensure that he reaches the latter stages. In fact, the Scot will know precisely what is needed now and that’s a victory over rival Roger Federer in his next match at the event.
Despite winning the Australian Open earlier this year, Federer has been accused by some tennis online betting pundits of struggling in general this season, and has failed to reach the lofty heights that his many fans have come to expect of him. However, with one Grand Slam victory representing one more taste of success than Murray has achieved this year, any talk of a slump certainly needs to be taken with a hefty pinch of salt.
Having said that, with Murray having performed well in the majority of his previous battles against Federer, he certainly knows precisely what it takes to be successful against the Swiss maestro.
If Murray can remember the winning formula that has served him so well in the past and use a victory against Federer as a launch pad from which to win the ATP World Tour Finals event and then a first Grand Slam early next season, the Scot will have finally lived up to the potential we all know he holds.
This said, though, if Murray finds himself beaten, and down and out once again, he’ll know that the tag of underachiever will continue to haunt him wherever he goes.
