If there is a team that it is in first page this season it is not another one than Arsenal. After the transfer of Henry (the most emblematic player during the last ten years) to the Spanish football at the end of last season it seemed that the north of London team would not able to compete to the all-powerful teams like Manchester United and Chelsea but it is not only fighting with them but it is now leading the table of the Premiership.
Three are the columns supporting the leading position of the ‘gunners’ – a solid defence , the technical quality and the leadership in the middle of the pitch provided by the ‘Catalan’ Cesc Fabregas and also the scoring facility from it forward centre Adebayor. This 23 years old player from Togo has exploited in his second season – he landed on 2006 summer – playing in the team of Arsene Wenger after his experience in the teams like of Metz and Monaco of the French football.
Adebayor has scored 18 times in Premiership and he is only one goal behind the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United who is the maximum scorer.
The goals of the player from Togo are helping Arsenal to maintain in the leading position of the English League. He is performing a fantastic season both by his mobility and speed as well as by his ‘goal smelling’ and together with Cesc is one of the players more applauded by the exigent supporters from Arsenal.

The career of Bojan Krkic is travelling at the light speed. In his first year playing at Spanish Liga First Division, and with only 17 years, 5 months and 9 days old he has become the younger footballer ever playing for Spanish National Team breaking the 71 years record of Angel Zubieta who in 1936 played for Spain with 17 years, 9 months and 9 days and also overcoming Cesc Fabregas in 2006 with 18 years and 10 months and Juan Acuña in 1941 with 18 years and 11 months. Furthermore with this fact Spanish football has ensured that Bojan (his father is Serbian) will always play with Spain instead of Serbia. There are other players in similar situation than Bojan that have also taken the same option: Donato, Senna, Di Stefano, Kubala, Catanha and Christiansen.
Other famous names have also important records playing for their National Teams: Ronaldo 17 years old and Pele 16 years old played for Brazil and Maradona do the same for Argentina at 16 years old. Anyway the world record is for Anibal Zapican who played for Uruguay at 15 years and 9 days old.
In the other hand the oldest footballer ever starting to play for Spain was Ferenc Puskas who does it at the age of 34 yeras and 7 months old.
