10. TIM HOWARD [USA; Everton] Tim Howard doesn't flaunt his tattoos or take he shirit off that often. So many people don't even know he has them, his skin is heavy with ink. There is Superman's logo and his mother's name, dragons and a cross, Chinese characters that represent God, family, faith, health, and happiness, all of which he holds close.  9. SERGIO RAMOS [Spain; Real Madrid] Ramos also has a number of tattoos like: Left inner forearm: JM VII P are his parents’ names and in the middle is his lucky number. JM = Jose Maria, his dad and P = Paqui, his mom or Upper back: Grinning ghoul with a football and it was his first tattoo. He got it when he was 15.  8. KEVIN-PRINCE BOATENG [Ghana; AC Milan]  7. ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC [Sweden; AC Milan] Zlatan actually has a total of eleven tattoos on his body. Here are some of them: The words "Only God Can Judge Me" on his belly supposedly show both his religious and rebellious nature. His father Šefik's name is on his right arm. The family name Ibrahimovic is written in Arabic on the back of his right arm. His sons' birthdays were also added to the "Ibrahimovic Code" on his wrist. The most striking design, a red dragon on his back, is said to be a metaphor for his personality. His latest tattoo is a drawing of two poker cards, the aces of hearts and clover placed near the dragon symbol as a good luck charm.  6. STEPHEN IRELAND [Ireland; Aston Villa] He has a pair of giant wings on his back. Enough said.  5. RAUL MEIRELES [Portugal; Chelsea]  4. MARCO MATERAZZI [Italy; Free Agent] He has tattoos on much of the top half of his body including wings on his back and his wife and daughters names. He also has the world cup trophy on his left thigh and his wife Daniela has a matching tattoo on her right arm proving that tattoos are a family affair for Materazzi.  3. DAVID BECKHAM [England; LA Galaxy] Beckham has his three sons' names tattooed on his back. David has a portrait of Jesus on his chest. The star has a six-inch tattoo of Victoria on his left arm, also David had his daughter's name tattooed above his left collarbone in late July...  2. DJIBRIL CISSE [France; Lazio] The Lazio striker has almost all of his upper body tattooed! His first tattoo was of a very manly rose on his chest, now he has wings on his backs and his daughters name on his neck. Although he has admitted that getting tattoos “really hurts”.  1. DANIEL AGGER [Denmark; Liverpool] Yes, it must have hurt. But Daniel Agger probably didn't mind. Daniel has a huge tattoo which depicts a Viking graveyard in the middle of his back. He also has a Latin proverb 'Mors Certa, Hora Incerta' across the top of his back, meaning 'Death is certain, its hour is not' and inscriptions on his ankles along the lines of 'Pain is temporary, victory is forever'. Agger loves tattoos so much that he is a qualified tattoo artist. 

10. CHELSEA 2-1 MANCHESTER UNITED (Stamford Bridge, March 1st 2011) The game between title heavyweights Chelsea and Manchester United back in March.  This day belonged to the side from West London as Blues fans said hello to curly-locked January signing David Luiz. Signed for his defensive presence, the flamboyant Brazilian served up a treat for Chelsea fans with his first goal for the club on 50 minutes. This was in response to a 29th minute Wayne Rooney effort which put the Red Devils in charge of the game and indeed the title race. Chelsea gave themselves every chance however on 80 minutes when Chris Smalling was adjudged to have brought down Chelsea's Yuri Zhirkov in the box. Frank Lampard did the rest from the spot and Chelsea won to silence any of the doubters who suggested the title race was over. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/chelsea-2-1-manchester-united-2011-03/ 9. LIVERPOOL 3-1 MANCHESTER UNITED (Anfield, March 6th 2011)  Liverpool always like to get one over on their old foes from along the East Lancashire Road, and the Kop got exactly that in March. Step forward Dirk Kuyt. This proved to be arguably the finest performance from the Dutchman in a Reds shirt as he struck a hat-trick to overcome Sir Alex Ferguson's side. The win too further enhanced Kenny Dalglish's god-like reputation at Anfield (if it had ever in diminished) by the adoring Scouse public. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/liverpool-3-1-manchester-united-2011-03/ 8. BLACKPOOL 4-3 BOLTON WANDERERS (Bloomfield Road, May 14th 2011)  It was a stunning game back in May at Bloomfield Road as Ian Holloway's Tangerines boosted their hopes of Premier League survival with this incredible victory. With seven goals shared, it was influential captain Charlie Adam who eventually got the winner on 63 minutes with a shot deep inside the Bolton penalty box In the end Blackpool didn't have enough to beat the drop but Ian Holloway's side were remembered fondly for their cavalier style and willingness to get the ball down and play in an attractive pass and move fashion. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/blackpool-4-3-bolton-wanderers-2011-05/ 7. TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR 3-3 ARSENAL (White Hart Lane, April 20th 2011)  The North London derby is good at the best of times but this particular fixture was a stand out. Both gunning to finish in the Premier League's top four positions, both teams went for it in a highly commendable game.Arsenal led 2-1 in just 12 minutes after Walcott's opener but Spurs levelled through Van Der Vaart just two minutes later. With the Gunners going into the break with a 3-2 advantage, Tottenham hauled back their greatest rivals courtesy of a Van Der Vaart penalty after Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny was correctly ajudged to have brought down Aaron Lennon in the box.Arsenal went on to secure Champions League football at the expense of Tottenham. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/tottenham-hotspur-3-3-arsenal-2011-04/ 6. WIGAN ATHLETIC 3-2 WEST HAM UNITED (DW Stadium, May 15th 2011) Little Wigan Athletic make my top ten with their superhuman comeback against fellow candidates for relegation, West Ham United. In what was the definition of 'six-pointer', Roberto Martinez' worst fears were realised in the first-half as a Demba Ba double seemingly put Avram Grant's Hammers out of sight. But in a game of two halves, the half-time deficit only served to inspire the Latics to an incredible comeback, capped by a 94th minute Charles N'Zogbia winner. This proved a decisive day as Wigan Athletic went on to survive relegation in the 2010/11 season. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/wigan-athletic-3-2-west-ham-united-2011-05/ 5. TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR 1-5 MANCHESTER CITY (White Hart Lane, August 28th 2011) In what appeared an even fixture between two of the Premier League's big six, Manchester City proved victorious, and by some margin. In what was City's third game of the season, Roberto Mancini's men flexed their muscles and showed the world they can take apart even the best defences. Edin Dzeko slotted four with deadly precision and Sergio Aguero got on the scoresheet as City put down a marker to their title rivals. However as it turned out, there was some game to come later on this October afternoon at the home of their rivals Manchester United. See the second game on our countdown for more! HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/tottenham-hotspur-1-5-manchester-city-2011-08/ 4. CHELSEA 3-5 ARSENAL (Stamford Bridge, October 29th 2011) This day truly belonged to Arsenal and their indispensable captain Robin Van Persie who struck a hat-trick taking his Premier League tally to 10 goals in the process. However, this was half the story. After taking the lead through Frank Lampard's effort, Andre Villas-Boas' Blues seemed to press the self-destruct button with some comical defending letting Arsenal's swift passing cut them apart. The key and most memorable moment came when Florent Malouda's loose pass was seized upon by Van Persie who strode past John Terry who tripped at the most crucial moment and Van Persie calmly rounded Cech for the fourth. This day signalled Arsenal's rebirth in a hugely forgettable season up until this point. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/chelsea-3-5-arsenal-2011-10/ 3. MANCHESTER UNITED 1-6 MANCHESTER CITY (Old Trafford, October 23rd 2011) Bronze prize goes to the Manchester derby. Welcome to Manchester indeed. If any first-time viewer saw this game, they wouldn't realise how tight an affair this fixture has usually proved in recent years. This was nothing of the sort. This day in October really signalled the rampant intent of Roberto Mancini's Citizens. Backed by Sheikh Mansour's millions, City crushed their cross-city rivals in a scoreline nobody could have ever imagined. In a crazy game, Mario Balotelli opened the scoring to reveal a shirt sporting 'why only me' by football's pantomime villain. City hit goals two and three before Darren Fletcher's fine consolation, but then a late flurry by David Silva and substitute Edin Dzeko's brace really piled on the misery for United's red-faced Sir Alex Ferguson. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/manchester-united-1-6-manchester-city-2011-10/ 2. MANCHESTER UNITED 8-2 ARSENAL (Old Trafford, August 28th 2011) Runners-up in our countdown are Manchester United again. The football world wasn't half rocked back in August as Manchester United hit an inexperienced and understrength Arsenal side for 8 in a stunning game that finished 8-2. You even felt as if Sir Alex Ferguson felt a little sorry for his old adversary in Arsene Wenger who was coming under further scrutiny for his lack of movement in the active transfer window. By the time Ashley Young hit the second of his brace on 90 minutes which proved to be the final and tenth goal in the game, the disgruntled Arsenal faithful could barely look as the team trudged off in one of the clubs and managers darkest days. HIGHLIGHTS::: http://footyroom.com/manchester-united-8-2-arsenal-2011-08/ AND THE GREATEST & THE MOST ENTERTAINING GAME THAT I'VE SEEN IN 2011, ARGUABLY THE BEST COME BACK OF ALL TIMES! NUMBER 1: NEWCASTLE UNITED 4-4 ARSENAL (St James' Park, February 5th 2011) The mother of all comebacks way back in February from Alan Pardew's Newcastle United. The manager seeking to make an impression with the Geordie faithful at the time must have thought he was dreaming when Cheik Tiote cracked in a sublime volley to level the game at 4-4 in the 87th minute. What made this game stunning was the fact that Arsenal went into the half-time break a mighty 4 goals up on their opposition. Not even the staunchest Magpies fan could have seen it coming at the break, with certain sections of the crowd disappearing for an early trip home. How they wish they stayed. A truly magical advert for the Barclays Premier League. HIGHLIGHTS::::: http://footyroom.com/newcastle-united-4-4-arsenal-2011-02/

10 Hard solid facts about mourinho that some up the person he is..... 1. Intelligent football manager (Only positive fact) 2. He has the face of hatred 3. He is more arrogant than c.ronaldo who's arrogance is already outta this world 4. He takes the joy out of football by turning it into war 5. He ruined the image of probably the biggest club in the world 6. He is a bad sore loser 7. He tries so hard he sometimes shits he's pants (reason for avoiding press conferences, busy whipping he's ass)

10: Arsenal Want Alan Dzagoev and Carlos Fierro According to International Business Times, Arsenal are interested in signing Dzagoev and Fierro this summer, from CSKA Moscow and Chivas Guadalajara, respectively.Carlos Fierro is a Mexican U-17 international who just started getting playing time with Chivas this season. At only 17, he'd definitely be one for the future—and Arsene Wenger may even be interested in letting him develop at his club instead of bringing him over to Arsenal. Alan Dzagoev is the name Arsenal fans should be interested, as he's a player who can make a difference and probably stake a spot in Arsenal's starting lineup. Dzagoev is still only 21, but he's already made more than 150 appearances in all competitions for CSKA Moscow over four seasons. 9: Arsenal Want Clint Dempsey The Telegraph is reporting that Dempsey is being closely watched by Wenger, while The Guardianrefers to Dempsey as a £10 million target for Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester United. 8: Barcelona to Terrorize the EPL in the Transfer Market According to Give Me Football, Barcelona are set to bid for Gareth Bale, Robin van Persie and Javi Martinez, angering Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United in the process.Of all the three names, the last one looks most likely to be a transfer target for Barca, since he's Spanish and much cheaper than Bale or Van Persie. 7: Mario Balotelli to AC Milan or Inter Milan ESPN's Robert Gotta weighs in with his opinion that Balotelli's destination and new home this summer will be at one of the Milan clubs.It's an understandable position, but I don't see Balotelli leaving City this summer. 6: Shinji Kagawa to EPL Kagawa probably wouldn't be a starter at Barca or Real, but in the EPL, there isn't a team aside from Manchester City that wouldn't significantly benefit from Kagawa's services.United, Tottenham, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool would all improve significantly with the playmaking skills the Japanese attacker has to offer. 5: Axel Witsel to Manchester United or City Another player being hyped up by those around him is Axel Witsel.The 23-year-old Belgian only transferred to Benfica from Standard Liege last summer, but already he's being linked with the biggest clubs of Europe, like both Manchester sides. 4: Pavel Pogrebnyak Opens Contract Talks with Fulham Pavel Pogrebnyak began life in the Premier League in excellent form by scoring five goals, including a hat-trick, in his first three games.However, for Fulham's next three games, Pogrebnyak and his teammates were shut out. In Pogrebynak's seventh game as a Fulham player, he was injured late in the first half.After struggling with form at Stuttgart in Germany, Pogrebynak seems to be interested in a new start with Fulham, and thus contract negotiations for a permanent stay are already underway. 3: Bordeaux President Says the Door Is Open for Chamakh Return Even though Marouane Chamakh has looked downright awful for a season-and-a-half, he's still wanted by some rather big clubs.A few weeks earlier, it was reported that Chamakh was a major target for PSG, and now it appears that Bordeaux want their ex-star striker back as well. 2: Liverpool Target Hector Herrera It wouldn't be right not to mention a Liverpool transfer rumor in the post-Comolli era, after the ex-director of football exitedLiverpool by "mutual consent."Though not much is known about him and he certainly isn't English, Hector Herrera, a Pachuca winger, is reportedly a target for Liverpool.Andreas Fassi, chief executive of Pachuca, has already confirmedLiverpool's interest. 1: Chelsea Want Krul? We close with a rather audacious rumor.According to Emirates 24/7, Chelsea are preparing a £15 million bid for Tim Krul this summer.The Dutchman's performances between the sticks have been amazing, and he could establish himself as an elite goalkeeper if he was playing behind a tighter defense than the one at Newcastle.The only reason this doesn't make sense as a rumor is that Chelsea are already stacked with goalkeepers.
