In, out, in, out – Aaaaahh I am sick of it.

Ok, so it has not been the best start to the season by a long way, but I am sick and tired of reading on a daily basis people continually ripping into Liverpool and Rafa Benitez.  Yeh we had a good season last year (from a premier league perspective) and yeh we have not had [...]

Injustice and Disappointment

“I Think my Sat Nav is broken, I typed in Chelsea and it said just two minutes away from Rome.”
Just one of the ‘hilarious’ jokes that I’ve heard in the aftermath of two quite bizarre Champions League semi finals.
Here are my post game reflections on both matches:
Arsenal 1 – 3 Manchester United
As an Arsenal fan, [...]

Champions League Quarter Final Draw

Villareal v Arsenal:
I’m happy with this draw.  Apart from Porto, Villareal are probably the most beatable team out of the 8 quarter finalists.  Arsenal have an advatnage with playing away first and now that alot of their key players are returning from injury, they should progress.  It will also be interesting to see Robert Pires [...]

Justice is finally served

Ronaldo Car Accident

As I’m sure were all aware, Ronaldo wrote off his car on the way too training this week.  Luckily he emerged unscathed.  Lucky you say?  I thought most people would welcome his untimely death!  Well no for two reasons.  The first is although I strongly dislike dislike him on the pitch, I wish him no [...]

A bit of Grumbling in North London

Arsene Wenger is at it again.  He’s having a moan.  Adeboyer has joined him too.  Its all regarding the events of the recent 1-1 draw with Liverpool at the Emriates, particulary Adeboyer’s two yellow cards and sending off.  Here are my thoughts:
Was the first yellow legitimate?  Yes, but it was a bit soft.  Was the [...]

Mid December Musings

In my opinion, the past weeks football was a bit dull in comparison to recent weeks.  Apart from Villa’s performance against Bolton and Hull City’s draw with Liverpool, most of the games were a bit on the ordinary side.   I want to talk about two things regarding the recent results:  Arsenal and Tottenham.
Arsenal
After a poor [...]
