As with Sir Alex this time twelve months ago, soccer moves on relentlessly. Thoughts must […]

Yankee Stadium. Kids playing sandlot games, stick ball and little league step up to home plate and imagine belting one out of this park.

The first was an obvious elbow from Ramires on Sebastien Larsson (see photo above). Dean was perfectly placed, but didn't spot the clash as he had given advantage to Chelsea.
