The Death of Unbeaten Man U.

We regret to announce the death of an icon in the English Premier League this season, Unbeaten Man U or the unbeaten run of Manchester United. This occurred after a sad incidence in the home of Wolves when Manchester United lost to Wolves 1-2. Well some people were having high hopes that unbeaten Man U will stay alive till the end of the season to gladden their hearts but this was not to be.
Unbeaten Man U is survived by the manager Sir Alex Ferguson and teaming supporters of Manchester United. May they all have the fortitude to bear the loss. Amen.

Liverpool Beating Chelsea Home And Away This Season.

Well just this last Sunday which was the 6th of February 2011, the game between Chelsea and Liverpool was played. Of course most followers of the English Premier League know the result. Liverpool came out as winners courtesy of the only goal of the game scored by Merieles late in the second half of the game. Again one thing to note about this game was that it was played at in the home of Chelsea FC that is at Standford Bridge in front of their home fans.
The fact is that this season Liverpool FC has won Chelsea FC both home and away this season. If you can recall, in the first leg, Liverpool FC won Chelsea at Anfield by 2 goals to nothing. Ironically both goals were scored by the new signing Fernando Torres who was still at Liverpool FC at that time. Now with this same player in the Chelsea squad, Chelsea could not avoid losing to Liverpool FC at Standford Bridge. Therefore Chelsea FC has lost to Liverpool in both legs of the premiership.
What is the implication of this for Chelsea FC? The implication is this that they should better take care. This is because they still have other big games to play. With the win of Liverpool over Chelsea FC, Liverpool are now in the 6th position. Any loss again for Chelsea may see them crashing to the six position if care is not taken. They still have to play against Man U, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City. So they better tread carefully. Now the position for the top 4 spots is becoming hotter by the day. This is because Liverpool is struggling to get back into one of the top 4 positions, with other teams like Tottenham Hotspur on the heels of Chelsea FC.

It’s Another Elclassico in The Copa Del Ray Finals.

With the victories of Barcelona over Almeria on a goal aggregate of 8 and that of Real Madrid FC over Sevilla FC on the goal aggregate of 3, we now have another Elclassico but this time around in the final of the Copa Del Ray. Looking at the way both teams have played on their road to the final, I think Barcelona has been the most convincing of the two sides scoring a total of 22 goals and conceding 5 goals so far while Real Madrid FC scored 20 goals conceding 4. In terms of attack and holding of the ball I think Barcelona played better than Real Madrid FC. So on paper they look more convincing.
But soccer is played with the leg and not with the mouth. So we can only wait until the 20th of April to know the final winner of this competition.

What is happening to Real Madrid?

With the outcome of the game between Osasuna and Real Madrid FC played last weekend, which Osasuna won by a goal to nil, Real Madrid FC is now 7 points behind the League Champions who also are currently the league leaders Barcelona. It is still too early to conclude that Barcelona FC has won the league but the possibility of Real Madrid catching up with them is becoming a mirage.
One can only but wonder what is happening to Real Madrid the only team now in the Spanish la liga that is a serious threat to Barcelona. The question is what is happening to Real Madrid FC? For the last 2 games, they have been struggling to score goals. Cristiano Ronaldo is trying his best but it is like the pressure on him is too much. Something must be done to address this issue more urgently.

Liverpool’s new Signings, Suarez and Carrol.

Liverpool FC made some surprising signings just on the eve of the closure of the transfer window in January. Andy Carrol from Newcastle United and Suarez from Ajax Amsterdam. Well Suarez made his debut for Liverpool FC in their game against Stoke City and I believe that he was the one that scored the goal and that it was not a home goal.
With what Suarez played in that game I think that there is a future for Liverpool FC. Other clubs in the league should beware. The partnership of Suarez and Carrol if it works will really be a torn in the flesh of other opposing teams in the premiership. As one said earlier on that if this man Kelly Dargish is given more time Liverpool may return to their glorious days of the 1980s. The signing of these 2 new players may bring back these moments faster than we may all think.

It’s going to be a Cracker Chelsea FC vs. Liverpool FC.

As every soccer loving individual knows that this weekend, the star match of the English Premier League this weekend is the one between Chelsea FC and Liverpool FC which is going to be played at Stanford Bridge. Of course for, Chelsea FC their cry will be revenge for the loss they suffered at the hands of Liverpool at Anfield. If you can recall they lost 0-2. Incidentally the scorer of those 2 goals is one of their new signings at this year’s January transfer window and as the reports received as at the time of this writing, he will play against his former club this Sunday. Of course the new signing one is talking about is no other but the former Liverpool FC striker Fernando Torres.
Well one thing about this game on Sunday is that it is difficult to predict the outcome of the game. Chelsea at the moment seems to be recovering its form while at the same time, Liverpool FC is on fire. The game will really be tough as both teams need points not just to survive but they need these points to improve their position on the table. Chelsea needs a win to guarantee them a place among the top four with a team like Tottenham Hotspur at their heels. Liverpool FC needs a win so as to remain in top contention to return back to the big 4. Liverpool FC is currently occupying the 7th position in the league but they are desperately looking for a return back to the top 4. On the other hand Chelsea FC is struggling to remain among the top 4. Hence the game on Sunday promises to be explosive.

Pleasant Shock for Chelsea Fans, “Fernando Torres now in Chelsea”

It was a surprise for the writer to learn that Fernando Torres signed for Chelsea FC at the eve of the closure of the transfer window this January. According to the reports that one received the signing took place very late in the night of the 31st of January 2011. Prior to this it was as if Chelsea was not going to buy any player into their squad a thing that supporters of Chelsea have been crying foul about. But the shocking news came that Fernando Torres has joined Chelsea FC from Liverpool FC and he will be playing his first game for Chelsea against his former club, interesting.
The coming of Fernando Torres to Chelsea will improve their attack. Chelsea FC has a very good midfield so he getting the required passes will not be a problem. The only thing that may stop him may be injury worries. But Chelsea FC fans should not expect too much from him this Sunday as it will be a very emotional game for him. This is because he will be playing against his former teammates.

Liverpool Under Kelly Dargish.

Now about 4 weeks ago, Kelly Dargish took over as manager of Liverpool FC. His first assignment was the F.A Cup match against the current league leaders Manchester United FC. Well as Liverpool lost that game by a goal to nil and if you can remember clearly Steven Gerrard was given a red card. But in spite of that Liverpool FC still held their own against Manchester United in that game as they fought gallantly to make sure that the game ended 1-0 in favor of Man U. not too long after this was their premiership game which was away to Wolves. This was where the team began to show their stuff and that of their new manager. They game out of that game with an emphatic 3-0 victory over Wolves FC. After this they went on to win Fulham FC at home by a goal to nil. Then came their last game for now against Stoke City. They also won that game by 2 goals to nothing. If you can remember their new signing Suarez was the one that scored the second goal. The first goal was scored by Merieles.
Now what can one say about this, I thing the manager of Liverpool FC made the right choice in employing the services of this new manager Kelly Dargish. This is because out of the five games he has been in charge so far, he has only lost one ,drawn one(pardon me for omitting the game against Everton which ended 2-2) and won three of the which Liverpool FC kept a very clean sheet. If they should give this man more time I believe he may return Liverpool FC back to the glorious era of the 1980s.

Chelsea FC Is Gradually Regaining It's Form

Chelsea FC is gradually regaining its usual from in the English Premier League. They have won their last 3 games. Well sorry to say that I have forgotten the first of the 3.So one will start from their game against Bolton.Starting from their game against Bolton which ended 4-0 in favour of Chelsea FC, with goals from Drogba, Anelka,Malouda and Ramires who scored his first and only goal for Chelsea so far, from the reports that one received concerning the game, one could see that Chelsea dominated the game.It was a whitewash. Again, looking at their game away to Sunderland where they secured a sweet revenge for the loss they suffered at home to Sunderland at Standford Bridge,they were really the ones dictating the pace of the game. They won Sunderland 4-2 in front of their home fans which was the same pain that Sunderland inflicted on them at Standford Bridge.
One thing to note was the way Lampard, Essien played coming back to assit the defence and also joining the attack. It was wonderful. One can only conclude that there is hope for Chelsea FC

History of the clubs currently in the English Premier League:Arsenal FC

Arsenal was formed by scots which were David Danskin, Elijah Watkins, John Humble and Richard Pearce. Actually it is on record that the idea to form the club was that of David Danskin who at that time was working at that time at the Arsenal munitions factory at Woolwich.
Now David Danskin initiated the idea and word soon got round that a club was to be formed. Then 15 men came forward and agreed to pay sixpence to help to start up a soccer club.David Danskin again donated another 3 shillings in addition to the sixpence he gave earlier on. The new club was formed in Woolwich in October 1886 .
The club arranged to play its first game in December 1886. But the club did not have any name. Then they were referred to as Dial Square after one of the factory's workshops. They then crossed the Thames to play Eastern Wanderers on the Isle of Dogs.
The team Dial Square won Eastern Wanderers 6-0. After the game the new team members met in the Royal Oak pub next to Woolwich Arsenal station on the Christmas day of 1886.In the meeting the founding fathers of the club then chose a new name for the club. the name they chose was Royal Arsenal. They used this name until 1891 when Woolwich Arsenal was adopted.
As time went on people preferred to call the name Arsenal instead of Woolwich Arsenal.So this great soccer club started from Woolwich
