'I have the blood of Arsenal in me' - Super Eagles player Alex Iwobi says

Arsenal winger Alex Iwobi has revealed that he's an Arsenal fan in and out and that the moment he signed for Arsenal as a child was a 'crazy' one as his parents were so proud of him.
Iwobi joined Arsenal as a schoolboy before progressing through the academy and made his debut against Sheffield in October. He has scored 2 goals in 20 appearances for the club this season.
“I have always loved Arsenal,” he told Arsenal Player. 
“When I was young, I was always waiting to watch the legends of the club play. You could say I have the blood of Arsenal in me!
“I have seen the picture of me [signing as child] in the yellow top. I remember signing – that moment was crazy, I remember smiling so much. My mum and dad were proud of me and they were there waiting for me.
“It has been a bumpy ride [since then]. It has been a roller coaster with a lot of ups and a few downs that I have had to get over in the past. Certainly now there are a lot more positives in my career.

Cesc Fabregas the ‘Rat’ who turned against Mourinho? Nothing could be further from the truth [Telegraph]

Jose Mourinho’s sacking at Chelsea has led to all sort of plot twists and intrigue. Far from a routine results-oriented sacking, there was a lot more to Mourinho’s sacking than meets the eye, the conspiracy theorists insist. A narrative of a dressing room mutiny has persisted throughout the season, and ultimately proved to be Mourinho’s downfall – again if you believe in the smoke and mirrors stuff.
