I gotta say I really missed Jose Mourinho. I missed his banter so much I went to youtube to search for his memorable interviews.

Premier league football may be more exciting to watch nowadays in terms of the pace and end to end action but I still preferred the premier league of the late 90s. Yup, I started watching footie in 94 and back then there were players like Baggio, Romario, Vinnie Jones, Gazza, Dennis Wise, Roy Keane. Duncan Ferguson was a mad bulldog and I always thought he should have been in boxing instead. Paolo Di Canio never failed to make me laugh with his antics especially the days when he was still at Sheffield Wednesday sporting tight shorts. But my all time favourite had to be Eric Cantona. He had an aura around him. He also made flipping the collar over the jersey way fucking cool. He made every son on the street wear the number 7 on their backs and flip up their collars. I never forgot his comeback match following his ban. It was against Liverpool and he scored the penalty against them. He is a living example of a legend. This is the clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hwhcvgo4rYk&feature=related
