The Cassano Skill Skool

Bigus previously brought to our attention Sky Sports' Soccer AM Skill Skool challenges.

Skill Skool - Cheer-Up Bigus Edition.

Old Bigus has been in the USA for 6 years now and it's not just his beloved Norwich City that he misses. Snaps... Curly Wurlys... Greene King... Mum and SOCCER AM!

So imagine his delight as NCFC's youth boys participated in a 'Soccer AM' segment called 'Skill Skool' last week.

Warning: This video is extremely entertaining!

Every week Soccer AM selects a new academy and challenges young footballers. The rules are simple: two players go head-to-head and try to dazzle with the ball, 'street style'. There can be only one winner.

Click here for this week's excellent edition.



Seen it?

How good was that,eh? According to one of the show' producers, the Norwich lads were the best yet. Well that's cheered me up no end! After Saturday' dissappointment I was in desperate need of that video.

Now, watch us sell half the academy to Chelsea.
