Is Chelsea’s Roman empire crumbling?

November 23, 2010

The Roman Empire at Chelsea has been defined by its emperor’s decisions since it began in 2003. Seven years on nothing has changed. The ruthless and wanton ‘hire em fire em’ tactics employed by Roman Abramovich have not been in the best interests of the club – in fact you could argue that some of [...]

Winning Titles is Simple: Sign Ibrahimovic

November 23, 2010

Zlatan Ibrahimovic comes in for some awful stick on these shores. Whenever we see him play in the Champions League, we’re very quick to label him ‘useless’, claim that he ‘did nothing’ in the 90 minutes that preceded despite all of the hype that surrounds him. We’re not being fair on the big Swedish striker, [...]

Are Bolton over-performing this season?

November 22, 2010

A 5-1 victory over newly promoted Newcastle United on Saturday afternoon has seen a re-vitalised Bolton Wanderers soar up the Premier League table to 5th place, level on points with Tottenham Hotspur and six points behind league leaders Chelsea. But, are Bolton over-performing after fourteen games into the 2010/11 season? Before I cast any judgemen [...]

Who wants this league?

November 22, 2010

If we’re talking the league title, then on the basis of this weekend: nobody. It saw Chelsea lose to a Birmingham side starting the game in the bottom three, Arsenal conspire to throw away a 2-0 lead against their biggest rivals and lose; and United labour against 9-man Wigan. It is a mark of the [...]

How Spurs closed the North London gap

November 22, 2010

Following Saturdays victory for Spurs in the North-London derby, I decided to look at how both parties have made there way to this potential nuance of oppression for Harry Redknapp’s men. Many would point to Redknapp’s loyalty to domestic origins, boasting nine Englishmen (excluding the injury-prone Jonathan Woodgate) in his 25-man squa [...]

National football centre – too little too late?

November 21, 2010

The FA have announced that building on the National Football Centre in Burton will begin in January, to be completed in 2012. Building started way back in 2001, but due to the development of Wembley Stadium, which cost over 750m, it looked like the project would be scrapped altogether. The football association finally gave the [...]

How Spurs can shackle high flying Arsenal

November 19, 2010

From a Spurs point of view, Saturday lunchtime’s match against their great rivals is by far the biggest game of the season so far. Both teams are high in confidence following impressive wins in the last outing with Spurs securing a high scoring 4-2 home win against Blackburn and Arsenal grinding out a gutsy win [...]

Arsenal vs Spurs – The Destructive Derby

November 19, 2010

Every fibre of my being wanted to avoid writing a post about this game, but the build up ahead of tomorrow’s North London clash has awoken a monster within me that must be allowed to vent. The game is annoyingly taking place at a time when a win or a loss for either side will [...]

Super Mario is caught in the middle

November 19, 2010

International friendlies are probably the most irrelevant set of matches in the footballing calendar. Despite the depressing idea of watching a mediocre performance by England and also hearing the pointless thoughts of Adrian Chiles and Andy Townsend, the footballing world was dealt another devastating blow. Italy versus Romania would never really [...]

Are Liverpool a two or three-man team?

November 19, 2010

Liverpool FC has a proud history of being highly successful domestically and in Europe too. The Reds faithful are some of the most demanding in the world particularly as bitter rivals Manchester United have won the Premier League 11 times since its formation in 1992. Yet the most competitive Liverpool have been in recent times [...]

Is it time Italy got tough on racism?

November 19, 2010

By Laurie Fitzgerald When it comes to dealing with racism within football, it’s important to notice what are isolated incidents and what are consistently occurring. While racism may still exist in English football (without having evidence, its difficult to state otherwise) at least there is a concerted effort being made by the national governing [...]

Is he English, Scouse, or both?

November 18, 2010

A key qualifier is coming up. Win and you take your team to the World Cup finals, But there’s a problem. The Champions League final is just a few days later and your hamstring is feeling tight; what do you do? Luckily this scenario is as unlikely as a slick England passing move, but it [...]
