- I feel this image would be a good image to feature on the portal, even though it is rather low-resolution. JACOPLANE • 2008-06-12 19:43
- My apologies for taking so long (months!) to respond to both of these...
- Whilst it's a nice action shot of Fabregas, the blurriness of the ball and the fact that Anderson is half hidden dissuades me from adding it right now. However, if there was an article on "obstruction" or something along those lines it'd be a worthwhile illustration of the techniques.
- Also, there are entries for Fabregas, Arsenal & Manchester United on the portal already. Nanonic (talk) 20:04, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
