THIS IS EXTRA TIME

because there's more to the game than the game

About

We're putting the focus on the WAGs, lifestyle, players and the all important gossip and dirt surrounding the beautiful game. Because let's face it, there's so much more to soccer (football) than the game. Did we mention the hot footballers? And yes, we do know the offside rule, thank you very much.

Of The Moment

[guest edited this week by Blair @ MRWF]

EPL Hottie: Jay Heaps - The blue eyes and curly hair reminds me of an Owen Hargreaves type of hotness.

EPL Hottie: Xabi Alonso - He’s one of those fallback hotties when you can’t think of anyone out of the blue.

Most Hated: Jose Mourinho -Never all that loved in the Premier League, he’s now raising eyebrows in Serie A. But rather than picking fights with managers in the technical area, he’s chosen a much higher target, Pietro Lo Monaco, the Catania chief executive. Their verbal sparring has resulted in Jose requesting monetary compensation for Lo Monaco’s free advertising: “If this guy wants to earn free publicity by talking about me, he’d better pay me. Adidas features me in their adverts, but they pay me a lot of money to do that. I don’t get paid to help this Lo Monaco get in the papers.” Oh…snap!

Most Loved: Frank Lampard’s Thighs - I’ve missed them for so long that I almost forgot how gorgeous they were. But finally they’re making a comeback. They first appeared in the Manchester City game, and have now been visible in the Bordeaux and Manchester United games. It seems he’s still wearing the compression shorts for training, but that is just a minor detail. Perhaps it was my last “Of the Moment” post that finally forced him to lose the spandex.

Most Annoying WAG: Cheryl Cole - Cease the crying on X-Factor. Running mascara is not a good look. And it doesn’t look good when you contradict yourself either. One minute you’re refusing to talk about your marriage and the next you’re talking about it on national television and in magazines. Make up your mind love. Good job on the runway though.

Barfline: HANDBALL LAMPS! -- It seems that Frank Lampard’s thighs are getting more than just some action on the pitch. But, do they have to make a football reference out of Lampsy getting a little action in his “penalty box” from some ladies at Funky Buddha? I think not. Bad form, from both the Daily Star and Frank.

'Round the Neighbourhood: He just can’t resist. The Scouser in him just can’t allow him to keep his bloody mouth shut. His honesty in his autobiography threw some people off at first, but it only made me want to buy it as soon as possible! And now he’s gone out and blasted the American owners of his club. Probably not the best of career moves, but it is who you are, and that’s why we love you!

MAN-FLESH DU JOUR: FROM THE ARCHIVES... OLOF

From the dusty, dusty archives indeed. It's clean-shaven Olof Mellberg! No idea how old this photo is but it looks like it's from around the time Freddie's hair was still red or perhaps dates back to before Freddie and Ollie were getting into punch-ups on the training ground.

(Afternoon!) Bits and pieces:

Yanks are out of the Olympics after losing 2-1 to Nigeria this morning. We're beginning to think it's partially our fault. Our track record isn't exactly great -- when we start supporting a team they automatically start sucking.

Canadian ladies at the Olympics: Lost to Sweden on Tuesday. They take on the US on Friday in the quarter-final.

Meanwhile, hilarity continues at LA Galaxy. According to the lads at UF, Bruce Arena might be getting the job.

What is the single most annoying thing that can happen to Arsenal right now? That's right, Fabregas is broken.

Slightly more amusing: Joe Cole is comparing Arsenal to the Harlem Globetrotters.

Speaking of Joey, photos of he and his lady out for lunch earlier in the week here. Carly's rocking yet another pair of fugalicious shoes.

The BBC website is totally shipping Robbie/Nando. But who isn't after seeing that glorious photo?

FourFourTwo with the 15 greatest (and weirdest) goal celebrations. Yeah, we still don't get what Corradi was trying to do.

And finally, if Olof doesn't do it for you today: Metzelder gave us a sneak peak yesterday against Eintracht Frankfurt. Whatever happened to taking your shirt off completely? Call us old fashioned...

Olof looks seriously hot there!! I've become all flustered by his jaw line.

I was shocked when I first saw it, actually. He should go clean-shaven more oft.
