Are Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea just too good for the rest of Europe?
Last year, when three of the ‘Big Four’ from the Premier League safely negotiated their way to the semi-finals of the Champions League, the English press drove itself silly trying to get the country to pat itself on the back for the greatness of English football. Here were England’s finest conquering all before them –…
Jose Mourinho: I will ‘KILL’ Chelsea
Now think about that headline for a second – doesn’t it make you curious? Doesn’t it jump out at you as a paradox – regardless of the terms (and they were not as bad or acrimonious as the media would like you to believe) Mourinho left Chelsea on, for him to say something like this…
Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Barcelona, Roma and Inter all looking for League and Champions League double… My money’s on a repeat of 2006
“We are top of the Premier League and through to the quarter-finals of the Champions League. We beat the holders at home, so why can’t we win them both?” The words of an understandably excited Cesc Fabrigas after Arsenal’s wonderful victory in the San Siro. Arsenal are far from the only team looking to do…
Soccerlens Daily: Dumb Liverpool fans, why Barton is at Newcastle, Flamini wants more from Arsenal, Aston Villa’s sugardaddy, West Ham in courts and more
Well, that was a surprise. No, not Real Madrid losing at home to Roma (bye bye Schuster, hello Jose?), although Roma must be commended for their excellent efforts (for full coverage, read Chris’s live blog / report). No, the surprise was seeing Liverpool fans searching on Google for information on the 2nd leg game against…
Champions League Roundup: Arsenal, Barcelona, Manchester United and Fenerbahce win, can Chelsea, Real Madrid (or Roma) and Porto join them?
With Europe coming to a standstill (or the whole world, if you believe Scudamore) for the 2nd leg of the Champions League round of 16, we’re not doing the daily news today, just a wrap-up of Champions League action. Of course, there’s the small matter of Liverpool being taken over (ok, I mean under discussions),…
Newcastle United Watch: where will Steven Taylor go – Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Tottenham, Manchester City, Chelsea, West Ham, Aston Villa, Everton, Blackburn or Portsmouth?
Steven Taylor, the much-hyped (and promising) Newcastle United defender: “The longer I hear nothing from the club the more I fear they want to sell me. If there is no offer on the table by the summer then I will have no choice but to look at my options.” So, assuming that Newcastle United get…
Andriy Shevchenko – how the mighty have fallen
Andriy Schevchenko has been a great player by anyone’s reckoning. Nearly 200 goals in just under 400 league appearances at Dinamo Kiev, Milan and Chelsea. He was European footballer of the year in 2004 and has been in the top ten on five other occasions. Six times he has been in the top ten of…
Soccerlens Daily – Newcastle United v Steven Taylor v Debt, Chelsea’s troubles with Greeks and Grant, and more
Fun, fun weekend, eh? Hmmmm…tomorrow I’ll be previewing the midweek Champions League fixtures, so keep a lookout for that. Today though, we have a quick roundup:
This Liverpool Fan is a Moron, or why Chelsea and Manchester United’s squad rotation WORKS
Liverpool fans are a funny bunch. Case in point: this article whinging about the *hate* the media has for Liverpool, based on the brilliant insight that Chelsea and Manchester United ALSO rotate their squads, and yet the respective managers get no flak for it. You MORON! They get no flak for it because it WORKS!
Soccerlens Daily – Paranoid Arsenal, Angry Chelsea, Confused Newcastle, Tottenham in China and more
Some people got pissed off yesterday on a few of the articles. Here’s the thing – personal abuse (i.e. calling the author shite) is not on. You want to do that, go and setup your own blog. If you’re going to comment, do the responsible thing and criticise the opinion instead of the man. On…
