Something rotten in the state of Fifa

November 30, 2010

This Thursday we finally find out if England will host the 2018 World Cup. I hope we get it, truly. If ever I start to doubt this, I just think back to when I was nine years old, watching England stuff Holland 4-1 at Euro 96 and the entire country collectively losing its minds in [...]

Barcelona Masscare No Accident….

November 30, 2010

Last night at the Nou Camp, was a rare moment in football. It was a 90 minute long moment at that, and something that will stick as the pinnacle of Catalonia’s participation in el classico – and haunt the special one. Barcelona trounced Real Madrid 5-0 with a mesmeric display of passing and moving, with [...]

Vote for the 2022 Qatar stadium freak show

November 30, 2010

I’m sure we’re all aware that in two days time 22 FIFA Executive Committee members will sit down around an oval table and elect the hosts of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. What we forget though is that immediately after the 2018 vote, the 2022 candidates will hear their fate too. So, who should take [...]

The Greatest League in the World is…

November 30, 2010

La Liga? Don’t make me laugh, every year it’s a two-horse race, the Spanish equivalent of the SPL. What about the goal-hungry Bundesliga? Not quite. Don’t get me wrong, Borussia Dortmund have impressed me this season with a +26 goal difference, but the rest of the league is poor. So it has to be the [...]

Real(ly) Found Out

November 30, 2010

This El Clasico brought with it an added tinge of excitement for a whole host of reasons. Real’s impressive recent record of 19 matches unbeaten would have signalled the mouth watering prospect of an edgy fixture that could go either way. Added to that, it was a first for David Villa, and a host of [...]

Are the teams leading the Championship good enough for the Premiership?

November 29, 2010

As we approach December and long winded Christmas break, it is interesting to think where the teams currently spearheading the Championship title charge come May. With Queens Park Rangers (QPR) currently unbeaten and eight points clear of the Play-off spot and five points clear of second placed Cardiff City, they are the undoubted favourites to [...]

Three reasons why Dover Athletic will win the FA cup

November 29, 2010

Non league sides are always a force to be reckoned with in the FA cup, some call it the ‘spirit of the cup’, some say that these teams have nothing to lose, but maybe, just maybe, some of these teams can PLAY football. I find it a brilliant prospect to see non-league opposition against a [...]

Should Joe Cole start to regret Liverpool move?

November 29, 2010

After 13 appearances and only one strike to his name, Joe Cole has certainly not made the kind of impact we all know he is capable of since joining Liverpool last summer. When Cole announced that he wasn’t going to sign a new contract at Chelsea, a mass flurry of clubs were interested in the [...]

Five Reasons Why Ronaldo is Better than Messi

November 29, 2010

Cristiano Ronaldo. Lionel Messi. Goals. Skills. Pace, strength and technique. Winners. There is nearly nothing that separates them. Nearly. Not since the mid-eighties has the world of football got to see two players plying their trade for the top two teams in the same nation, battling it out to be recognised as the best player [...]

Memo to Pep Guardiola

November 28, 2010

I have just been reading in the Sunday Times that Chelsea or more specifically Roman Abramovich is lining up Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola to replace Carlo Ancelotti at Stamford Bridge. My message to Pep would be a clear one – stay away from the Bridge, distance yourself from the job and under no circumstances buy [...]

The age of austerity… Kicking in?

November 26, 2010

Two years on from Lehman brothers, and the global crash that signalled the end of our high flying boom years, the word ‘recession’ now seemingly courses through our veins, and austerity has become something we have now grudgingly accepted. Eurozone countries’ economies seem to be collapsing like Dominos, while George Osborne determinedly lead [...]

5 reasons why Chelsea won’t win the Premier League

November 26, 2010

1. The tampering of Roman Abramovich Just when all seemed to be going so well at Stamford Bridge, Roman Abramovich sacks Carlo Ancelotti’s assistant manager Ray Wilkins apparently without his consent or even knowledge, and Chelsea go on to lose their next two league games. However promising Wilkins’ replacement, Michael Emenalo, may be Abra [...]
