The Week in Review

I'll make it quick: Wayne Rooney to be wrapped in cotton wool between games, Joe Cole and Shaun Wright-Phillips dither over signing new contracts, Peter Storrie resigns as Portsmouth Chief Executive after taking a pay cut and 85 people losing their jobs, David Beckham came, saw and was vanquished but was warmly received and wore an anti-Glazer scarf, the Red Knights brought the biggest investment bank in Japan to advise their United takeover and Sam Allardyce told us he "doesn't like Rafa Benitez." Whoosh, another boring week in football.
