Chelsea 3, Manchester United 0
One word for Jose Mourinho and Chelsea: Respect. Mourinho has his faults and so do Terry and co, but when it comes to the Premiership this team has turned domination into an art form. The 12-point lead over Liverpool and Manchester United is validation of their efforts because Chelsea have looked much more vulnerable this…
Rooney’s metatarsal and England’s World Cup
The media has a tendency to blow things out of proportion. It’s a natural extension of wanting to capture the emotional imagination of their readers, but for someone looking for just the facts and not drama or entertainment, the whole scene becomes drab and a waste of time. Rooney’s injury is horrible and devastating, yes….
Scolari pulls out in time
The hunt for Sven Goran Eriksson’s replacement as England’s manager is turning into a farce. (fantastic observation mate – where have you been all this time?) Today, in a press conference in Germany, Scolari announced that he was turning down the chance to become England’s next manager. He complained about the media scrutiny that had…
Manchester United Transfer News

The following article refers to a previous Arsenal v Barcelona match – see the latest Arsenal v Barcelona news. Serious contenders? We’re having a laugh! Paris, May 17th. Champions League Final.

Football Pictures (on special demand)
A recent comment (about 20 mins ago by my watch) asked if I had any pictures of a fan putting Barca’s flag on Henry during the Villarreal-Arsenal Champions League semi-final. As it happens, I managed to uncover the picture (and one more) and thought it would be best if I made a post about it.
The best man for the job
As soon as the media got wind of FA’s excursion into Portugal to meet with the current Portuguese manager, Luiz Felipe Scolari, the papers and online media has been flooded with speculation that Scolari will be the next manager for England.
Arsenal vs Villarreal – Champions League Semi-Final Preview
It’s almost time. When Arsenal and Villarreal go head to head in two hours time, I can’t for a second imagine which team will fight harder for the win, with Villarreal being in the competition for the first time and Arsenal having suffered heartbreak after heartbreak for so many years. The betting odds (for now)…
Chelsea vs Man Utd – Let the battle begin
In some respects, it was bound to happen. With Manchester United’s form in the last 3 years, it’s asking too much for them to mount a serious challenge for the Premiership this late in the season – even if we had defeated Sunderland, you still wouldn’t bet against Chelsea taking home the title again. The…
Arrogant Gunners
It’s a shame to see such a talented side (managed by a visionary) fall to such depths of depravity now and then. Remember September 2003, right before Arsenal embarked on that famous unbeaten run of 49 games (that came to a crashing end at Old Trafford, no less, thanks to a Wayne Rooney ‘dive’, as…
