What a terrifying vision of the future of football we've been served up this week.AC Milan, once the pride of a powerful and thriving seria A now reduced to shadow boxing against a really not that great United.All because they deserted their natural (and rather beautiful) defensive style of football to join the circus, brought in foreign players (especially brazilians) who think jogging back to defend is beneath them and generally put two fingers up to Italy's historic football traditions.Much good as it done them, and what a boring game?I concede that a lot of football fans nowadays do nt remember anything before the cheque book league but even they must have been struck by the sheer mind numbing pointlessness of it.Even the stewards were asleep by half time.As for the porto match well all that can be said is that they made the gooners look like an half decent well balanced football team, no mean achievement when you think about it.At least we, ve had the pleasure of listening to all those gooners and Mancs waffling on about how great they are which is always hilarious.Especially the stuff about Rooney, just wait till the World Cup when some Italian or South American defender takes him under his wing for half an hour and then see how great he is.If he can survive the WC without being sent off it will be a miracle.All the recent hype has done him no favours at all.Not that the World Cup really inspires these days, its glory days are long over and it's become a competition decided by referees rather than great play.Bear that in mind if Roons has to take the walk of shame, it's not his fault, someone told him he was a truly great player like Bobby Charlton or George Best.The problem is he looks like he believes them.
