Footballers’ New Year’s Resolutions for 2009

It’s the first day of 2009, so Happy New Year everyone.

It’s also the time of year to start making New Year’s resolutions/promises that won’t be kept. Here are 11 that footballers & football teams should be making for oh-nine:

William Gallas – Stop talking to the press, stop sitting in the centre circle, stop smoking. Also, stop wearing #10. You’re a defender.

Jose Mourinho – Play nice with the Italian press. You can’t win.

Andrei Arshavin – Move house.

Man City – Stop flashing the cash or you’ll get robbed.

Wayne Rooney – No more stamping on people. It’s not nice.

Ricardo Quaresma – Start putting your boots on the right way round.

AC Milan – Sign someone under 30. Anyone.

Kevin Keegan – Quit quitting.

Didier Drogba – Be more careful with money.

Real Madrid – Stop being linked with second rate right wingers.

Yoann Gourcuff – Remember football is a clothes-on sport.
