Soccer!

Meiska, you can skip this one.

An article in the Times about Arsene Wenger, manager of the Arsenal.

An article from the Daily Mail about the Arsenal youth program.

An interview with writer Aleksander Hemon about soccer, and his essay "If There Was a God, He Would Be a Solid Midfielder". I photocopied the essay at school, and would recommend reading it, very perceptive about life and using the people and events he has known through pick-up games to explore more of life.

An essay from Zadie Smith about American writers and their hair. About halfway through the piece, she writes about Hemon's bald, immigrant head, and his passion for soccer.

Ukraine, icons and soccer.
