Raphael's Bio
I'm currently studying Economics and Philosophy and expect to graduate in 2009. I enjoy all sports including, but not limited to, football (soccer), rugby (mostly sevens), cricket and F1. I love football and support Chelsea and Juventus, along with my national side England.
I have extensive knowledge of the EPL and Serie A as well as the history and major players and events of football (soccer) partly thanks to my father (who looks and talks uncannily like Jose Mourinho) and his neverending anecdotes about the great English, Hungarian, Dutch, Polish, German, Soviet, Italian etc. etc. etc. sides.
I love writing my opinion and putting in my two cents worth and I'm itching to contribute more to this site.

Thanks for the comment. I read your article, pretty tight stuff man. Arshavin is booming. Unfortunately, he's 27, his career is going to be shorter than most rising stars.
