AM's Week 15 Player Picks
I'd love to write in detail about the shock exits of the two Manchester clubs from the Champions League tonight, but I've recently been promoted at work, which (while great news) has meant my workload had increased massively. This means my lunch-breaks are now non-existent and my commute in to...

It's barely February, but the Premier League table-watching has started already. Even when Aston Villa aren't playing, Villa fans are taking sides, and they're different than the ones we might usually be expected to take.
