Superb Elano Blumer fits the bill for Sven-Goran Eriksson

Manchester City’s renaissance under Sven-Göran Eriksson gathered momentum yesterday when two goals from Elano and Chris Riggott’s defensive blunder secured an emphatic victory for the home side and strengthened their grip on third place in the Barclays Premier League.
Eyebrows were raised in the summer when City paid Shakhtar Donetsk £6 million for Elano, the [...]

Liverpool in crisis? Oh dont be daft.

Its the common misconception that Liverpool are beginning to falter, after a promising start to the season. The commentators and columnist and every other know-it-all football critic have rained countless attacks against Rafa’s rotation policy, pinpointing that as the reason for the current state of Liverpool FC.
All i can say, is don’t be daft, especially [...]

WENGER: English game losing soul

Arsene Wenger has admitted serious fears for the future of English football.

The Arsenal manager believes the domestic game in England is in danger of being severely damaged by mass media coverage and new club ownership.

The Mourinho Exit Winners And Losers

Happy He’s Gone
Roman AbramovichThe moral of the story is that, regardless of the success a manger brings, the owner is still the most important man at the football club. In a battle of wills, there can only be one eventual winner. Even armed with public support, Mourinho was fighting a losing battle against Roman’s [...]

Jose-less Chelsea crash to defeat

Jose Mourinho must be having a good laugh somewhere out there. Having just pocketed a cool 20million pounds to leave the managerial post, he just watched Chelsea’s new puppet, Avram Grant lose 2-0 to Man United. A superb glancing header from Tevez in the dying minutes of the first half, as well as a late [...]

Why do they call him Fat Frank? Is Frank really Fat?

Tis the eternal question which has been doing ballerina dances in the nether regions of my conscious and subconscious thoughts. No, i don’t have wet dreams about Fat Frank. Shuddup, stop snickering!

The seem to play better with 10 men, eh?

I remember the commentator mentioning that since the time Arsene Wenger took over until now, 69 Arsenal players have been sent off. However, they are the only team i’ve seen that play better with 10 men than with 11.
Arsene’s studiously plotting and scheming
In a peculiar way, i wonder if this has made them better at [...]

Savage: Arsenal are hypocrites

Gunners striker Robin van Persie attacked Mark Hughes’ side after the Premier League clash at Ewood Park in August, claiming that a Rovers player had trodden on Cesc Fabregas’ neck, and that Blackburn players had ‘crossed the border’ of acceptability in their play.
Arsene Wenger went on to claim after the match that Rovers had [...]

Wenger – Why Fabregas reminds me of Paul Scholes

“I made a tape of him last year and you wouldn’t believe how many chances he had, in some games he had three! When he was a young boy he scored goals and that’s a nice disease to have, sometimes it disappears but it always comes back when you are mature. He has a lot [...]
