The Return of Arsenal’s King

“It was like a dream when he scored. It was the story you would tell a kid. It is not often like that in our game.” - Arsene Wenger

It’s hard to add to Arsene’s description of Thierry Henry’s return to the Emirates. Numbers change, but it only took 10 minutes for the Thierry wearing the #12 to establish himself amongst Gooners as the same man that led Arsenal to so much glory in the past with a match-winner against Leeds United. It’s only a short loan spell, but tonight was special, and not just for fans of the Arsenal.

unfuckwithable:

Presenting The Tumblr Football Club Fantasy Premier League, hosted by A Football Report and the football community on Tumblr!

Last year, the AFR Fantasy Premier League had over 650 participants. This year, we’re hoping to shake things up a bit and focus on getting the football community (from our friends at The World’s Game and The Beautiful Game Blog to all the personal blogs) on Tumblr involved to create something special.

We took care of the winnings to be had thanks to the awesomeness of SoccerPro (winner gets soccer jersey of their choice, 2nd/3rd place get a jacket or an official ball, 4th and 5th place get a $20 Gift Card to SoccerPro.com) mixed with the genius of Live Breathe Football (sign up by kickoff this weekend to be one of five winners of a brilliant LBF shirt). 

The rest is up to you. Just click here, enter the league code (81352-135043), and then SPREAD THE WORD! Let’s make this massive!

This appeals to me greatly.  It’s like The League, but with a sport I actually care about.
