Several Fantastic Howlers Made Thursday's Europa League Action Special

The Europa League is full of fun. Half of that fun comes from spectacular goals scored by talented professionals, bringing us joy.

The other half, well, check out Aleksandr Kokorin's goal for Zenit St. Petersburg against Real Sociedad on Thursday.

That's just good clean fun. Of course, it wasn't the only goalkeeper blunder of the day.

Wenger Watch European Special: Theo Walcott Everybody!

The Wenger Watch is delighting in Theo Walcott's promising campaign to become the best Europa League player of all time. Theo got himself a first-half brace, followed by goals by Olivier Giroud (his 100th for Arsenal) and Rob Holding to hold off BATE Borisov, 4-2.

So, the Wenger-O-Meter continues its inexorable march toward Wenger "IN". We're getting close!

Move Aside Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo Has A New Rival

Normally, Cristiano Ronaldo is the best at what he does. If you need proof, just consider this: CR7 has won four Ballon d’Or accolades, he's been La Liga top scorer three times and he's been the Champions League top scorer six times!

Defensor de 19 años supera a Clint Dempsey dentro y fuera del campo y así se resume el estado del fútbol estadounidense

Desde que puedo recordar, personas con nada de experiencia en el mundo del desarrollo de jugadores y sin nada de conocimientos sobre las abrumadoras complejidades de nuestro increíblemente fragmentado sistema juvenil han estado hablando sobre encontrar el próximo Lionel Messi en lo que Will Parchman de Top Drawer Soccer describió como problemas de dinero, espacio y tiempo. 

Wenger Watch: Takin' Care Of Business

Arsenal's 2-0 victory over West Brom Monday was . . . expected. Although they caught a couple breaks via the referee and Nacho Monreal's field awareness, Arsenal mostly took care of business and won by a scoreline that they were supposed to win by.

So, cool! We have accordingly adjusted the Wenger-O-Meter closer to the "IN" position. Wenger isn't quite out of the woods, but things are looking up!

This Training Story From Fulham’s Relegation Season Will Make You LOL

Fulham’s hiring of former Bayern Munich manager Felix Magath back in February of 2014 was one of the most quixotic appointments in the history of the Premier League.

Wenger Watch Carabao Cup Special: Survive And Advance

Arsenal took care of business in their Carabao (which we are pronouncing CaraBOW with extra emphasis on the BOW) Cup clash against Doncaster Rovers. Theo Walcott scored. Alexis dribbled a lot. Olivier Giroud tried two overhead kicks. Arsenal saved two goals in situations that involved beleaguered Arsenal defenders making horrible mistakes but being so much faster than the Doncaster forwards it didn't matter. Jack Wilshere played.

So, nothing to worry about, really. Survive and advance.
