The Injury Curse – Lose them at your peril
Every club has one. That vital cog that keeps the team wheels turning. With the season in its infancy, supporters up and down the land are still harbouring dreams of glory (or at the very least over achievement, given that short of a billionaire Sheikh turning up on your doorstep, thoughts of the title are…
Transfer Rumors (1 September 09): Tottenham sign Pompey’s Kranjcar, Everton land Dutch star Heitinga, Aston Villa made to wait on Man City’s Dunne, and more
Unlike last year, when summer transfer deadline day saw some records broken and millions upon millions of pounds change hands, things were a lot quieter this time around. But as always, it’s just as much about who didn’t move as it is about who did move, and there were plenty of misses to go with…
Tuesdays have never been so exciting in football
Tuesdays have never been so exciting. Even the institution that is the UEFA Champions League and the subsequent “Champions Tuesdays” fanfare it precipitated hasn’t managed to turn a day of boredom and wistful gazing towards weekends past and future into anything more than a filler day.

The Premier League will take two weeks off for the international break (giving Wenger and Benitez another opportunity to crib about Fabregas and Torres playing for Spain) – but don’t worry, the title race will take another exciting twist this weekend as Manchester United and Arsenal have a go at kicking each other out of…
Transfer Rumors (24 August 09): Man City finally set to land Lescott, Lescott cash to fund Everton spending spree, Man United in Robben swoop, and more
So, Joleon Lescott is offically on his way from Everton to Manchester City, after numerous headlines over the past several weeks stating how close the move was to happening, what fee it’d be, and so on and so forth. In the end, Everton get a truckload of money, so does Lescott, Mark Hughes gets his…
Transfer Rumors (21 August 09): Everton finally give in on Man City target Lescott, Chelsea to move for AC Milan’s Pato next summer, Bolton close on Betis star Emana, and more
It’s the weekend again, so it’s time to turn the focus to the action on the pitch, but there’s still a fair share of gossip to report on from the transfer pages. The current holder of ‘The Rumor That Won’t Go Away’ title is the Joleon Lescott to Manchester City saga, but another situation that…
Premier League Predictions: Manchester United and Chelsea to win, Tottenham to lose
The first week of the 09-10 Premier League season has thrown up a few surprises (and pleasant ones at that).
