Arteta talking about us.

Is Tabasco high in calories?

I like the way the article was mainly pointing out the difference between the diet on the continent or English sides with continental managers and clubs in this country with English managers and it is being seen as Arteta coming to Spurs. Firstly I agree that Arteta doen't fit the system that Ramos plays (provided he plays as he did at Sevilla, im not sure what system he played at his previous clubs) and secondly Everton aren't gonna sell there most creative player and a player Moyes has been saying for ages should be in the Spain squad

By and large, Continental diets are far healthier than the English one full-stop, so it's no surprise that this is reflected in our footballers' eating habits. I very much doubt that the range of food on our canteen was any different to that of the majority of Premiership clubs—Malouda publicly expressed surprise at what was on offer at Chelsea's canteen. Wenger completely altered the Arsenal players' eating habits when he arrived; Gross tried to do the same at Spurs, and failed.

No. And chili is very good for you.

Chilli isn't good for you, that is why it is banned in the future.

See: Demolition Man.

Hmmmm, Rat Burgers.

Secondly, this supposedly overweight team of chubbers finished 5th two seasons running, so while I can appreciate that Ramos has made some changes, it can't have been all that bad before.

He says Everton are exactly the same as we were, to the extent that he has to bring in his own food! And they're hardly doing badly, are they? So no, I'd say he makes a pretty crappy argument

Although the tabloid scum are of course making up half the quotes to pad out the story. I am sure Arteta used words liked "stupefied"...

It's a good point, but I struggle to imagine a Sun hack using words like "stupefied" either...

The Sun isn't written by hacks, it's made for hacks. A lot of The Sun's staff have had the benefit of good education...it's not that easy making up puns that even the lowest common denominator would understand.

I partly agree. The Super Soaraway's staff are often middleclass folk writing Mockney - think Jamie "professional cockney" Oliver.

I made a BBC film about The Currant Bun's Editor, Rebekah Wade. Her staff joke that she allegedly likes a bit of rough, as shown by her choice of husband: Ross Kemp. Rumour has it that Rebekah once allegedly beat Ross up, but of course the whole thing was hushed up by Fleet Street.

Chaplain - I agree that Sun hacks aim at the lowest common denominator. The trouble is because so many of them don't mix much with the working classes they constantly drag the lcd further into the gutter.

Yeah, I was being a bit flippant. The clue for where stupefied actually came from is in the line "Speaking to Spanish paper El Mundo".

Cue dodgy internet translation...

Yeah, fair enough. It's a sorry state of affairs but not much we can do about it.

Wouldn't say sue the cook was too impressed when he turned up with his own food and then told her how to cook it. Its rice! Boil in the bag??????????

arteta is sheer class. Him and Lescott I would take in a shot. The rest are not good enough
