    Poetry corner: More lines on Ancelotti at PSG


    So Carlo is in the place
    to give the Parisians a new face
    And to get the girls to drop their kecks
    He's going to go and sign Dave Becks
     
    And there's bound to be a different offer
    To which a certain striker may be proffered
    And to put more noses out of joint
    Drogba's coming to prove a point
     
    So all is well in with the riches
    At the stately Parc des Princes*
    With a side you could pick on football manager for the Atari
    This is actually real life for the Qataris


    * - Yes, we know. Artistic license yeah

    Poetry corner: Lines on the PSG coaching job

    So farewell then Antoine Kombouaré.
    You may have been a decent player,
    You may have done well at Valenciennes,
    But you were never the 'name' the Qataris wanted.
    Let's face it;
    Your goose was cooked as soon as the sale was complete.
    Sacked
    With your team top of the league.
    That sucks.

    So hello Carlo Ancelotti
    And your permanently raised eyebrow.
    You now have to make PSG play sexy football
    Which isn't something you've ever done elsewhere.
    It may be handy to learn the Arabic
    Word for 'catenaccio'.
    You seem a likeable chap
    But it'll still be funny
    If you don't win anything.
    Sorry about that.
