Reunited and it feels so good...Footballers might not usually be considered the most sentimental types. Be it because of their propensity to leave their "beloved" club or their willingness to mock their former employers at the first opportunity, no one would think the likes of Carlos Tevez and Ashley Cole are quietly pining away for the day when they can rejoin they former clubs.
But the announcement of Sol Campbell's return to Highbury (check that: Emirates) as Becks publicly mourns his early departure from Old Trafford calls that perception into question. Not to be outdone, there's talk that Van Nistelrooy could be reclaiming his Premier League past (albeit likely in a Potters [side note: seriously?!] or a Gunners uniform). And then there's this.
Only time will tell if these moves prove masterstroke (a la Hughes) or misguided (a la Sheva), but, in the meantime, sit back, realx, break out the vintage kits, and bask in the nostalgia.
UPDATE: Word is that Flamini is keen to return to the Prem too, which shouldn't come as a surprise, since he is currently suffering the drop in form that accompanies a move to Serie A.
