One of my first memories of watching football is seeing Zinedine Zidane float effortlessly past Manchester United in the 2002/03 season of the Champions League. As a United fan this hurt greatly to see but I only realise now: What I was watching then was a footballing legend in the making. It was this game where it was most evident that when a Madrid player was in trouble on the ball they would search for Zinedine Zidane and he would always be there waiting to take control of the match even further.

Ireland With A Chance? England Just The Same Again?
We have all waited a long time to see Ireland even approach the top spot in a qualifying group but this year Giovanni Trapattoni's men seem to have a belief like never before. Just across the water England however remain the same with another good qualifying campaign but still lack something.
