Strike!



Every summer in the EPL there's a drawn out story that goes on and on, a story that has mild interest for the first couple of days but from then on bores the crap out of everyone. Gerrard to Chelsea, Henry to Barca, the Tevez bollocks, etc. This year it looks like there's going to be a few: how many Arsenal players will stab Wenger in the back, Liverpool melodrama and now Sven leaving City. They're all probably going to bore us to tears, but the City players at least want to start things off right by going on strike. Sven, typical sensible Swede that he is, has averted the mutiny. Why Sven? If this story is going to drag on for weeks at least let it start will a bit of real drama.
