I'm bummed, I like Di Matteo and was enjoying watching Chelsea play.
|
Just got back from a two week trip to see Arsenal play three home games in a row. They look like they may be getting it together but I still have my doubts. The Chelsea situation is odd. All their purchases, Mata, Hazard, were to provide people to feed Torres. To bring Rafa in (who I like) who plays a defensive game plan makes no sense.

What a great morning of football. All three games were exciting and decided in the final minutes.

Did you get a chance to watch liverpool v arsenal from yesterday. all in all a very good game with both sides playing above what they have been playing. next up for liver is man city, the game before the game. now if you had the opportunity to see the copa yesterday, barca and real was awesome!! (get to watch a lot of tvo when your home sick) if you did not get a chance to see it, look on bein sports i am sure it will replay

man, city is falling apart. had a feeling they wouldn't have what it took to repeat, but expected more than this. mancini tried to stay optomistic and rally the troops saying they were still in it, then they go out and get outclassed by southampton. i like seeing them lose (except Tevez who is one of my favorite players to watch), but would have liked to see them keep it close and push united since it doesn't look like chelsea is capable of doing it.
nice to see giggs score. my favorite player since he was coming on as the "super sub" back when he was 16. he's pretty much solely responsible for keeping me a united fan since then (cantona brought me in). thought it was a bit over the top though when Fergy called him a "fantastic human being" after the game though. Great player, but that seemed a bit over the top given his off field discretions. looking forward to united v. madrid this week. should be a good test for united. despite the fact that they're running away with the prem, they just don't seem like a great team to me. too many iffy spots in the lineup, although vidic's return is helping the central defense alot and that was the biggest issue. jones handled fellini much better this week than in week one. |
I suspect Mancini will get the boot come season end.
ManU doesn't look that good, just good enough. VP carried them through the first 1/2 and now with Vidic back they look much sounder defensively. Chelsea is a joke, but way fun to watch Oscar, Hazard, and MAta play football. Does anyone else think Bale is on roids? I hope Everton catch them for 4th. Liverpool is becoming fun to watch but I just don't see Downing or Henderson having the quality to match up with the higher up teams. No way either starts for Man U, City, Chelsea, or Tottenham. I'll be curious to see what they got in this Cutinho guy. So which EPL team does Mourinho end up with next year, or does he delay a few more years before taking over for Ferguson? |
Bale is getting big.
Bad loss for Liverpool today. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |

ManU is a beast. They even win comfortably when they are outworked and outplayed. Champions league Celtic/Juventus on shortly. |
bale is on fire and playing some good ball. he will be looking for a stronger team to pick him up.
juve handed it to em today. disappointing really excited to watch real and united. i'm trying real hard to keep the liverpool faith. they really have times of good play but can not put the game together. i am doubting that they will surpass their season high seventh place |
did u watch ac and barca? not the prettiest of games but......although i admire barca as the best team in soccer ( my god, i almost called it football ) i do like to see them lose occasionally. ac strategy was obviously closing down the middle with a hard defensive stand and play the long ball to el shaarway or wait for a break. very similar game to the celtic defeat of barca where barca controlled the game but could not break the defense. see what happens when they go to spain
so much soccer today, so little time. damn work i hope liverpool pulls their act together today. no sturridge, which sucks. 1 zenit goal and its over.... |
Well coached game by Milan, not so well by Barcelona. It is one thing to be the best team in the world. It is entirely something else to be unable to adapt to a situation and change your style of play. Laughable as it is, Barcelona would have been better with Peter Crouch out there than Messi yesterday. Nobody, no matter how good, was going to dribble or one two through that Milan defense, they needed to collapse it with long balls and play off the resultant havoc. Milan's coach set it up to force Barcelona to do something they lacked the players to do.

Ferguson calls it a day. Looks like Moyes will take over. I'm hoping for Moyes, don't really want the chosen one.

Goodbye, Mancini. Hooray for Wigan.

great win for wigan. only got to see a bit of the game but looked like they earned it, didn't just sit back and get lucky at the other end.
i think moyes will work. money and club name should attract the players. picking the right ones will be the tough part. he and ferguson are close. bet ferguson will mentor, for lack of a better word, him for a year of so. |
Today's game will be massive for both clubs. Wigan must win to stay up. Arsenal must win to secure a CL spot. I think that the FA Cup needs to be moved to the end of the season so that it does not interfere with the end of the season.
Waiting to see if Moyes can convince Rooney to stay on and that he has a future at ManU. Personally I do not think Rooney has a lot of options without taking a massive pay cut. This transfer market will be interesting with four of the top six English clubs having a new manager along with four of the top clubs on the Continent changing managers as well.
