MONEY CANNOT BUY MESSI Lionel Messi seems to be out, but for how long? What effect would this have on the balloon d’Or this year? For as long as the little magician is out, football of course is going to be the loser So with so many injuries at different top clubs and with national…
COSTA TO COST CHELSEA MORE It appears that Diego Costa will be costing his Chelsea even more over the next few weeks. I said it in my write up a few weeks ago that all I saw in him then was a sumo Wrestler or championship boxer, as opposed to a striker when I look in…
Wow what a fantastic weekend in the premiership! I can’t wait to see the League table at the end of the season, or should I dare say in December? I looked at the final scores on Saturday and Chelsea were on the receiving end of a 3-1 defeat by the team who refused to sell…
Hey morning everyone! Just can’t wait for Wazza’s 50th International goal! What a fantastic athlete and great English ambassador! He has achieved so much in his career, joining Bobby Charlton as the highest goal scoring English player ever and he is set to break that record tonight at Wembley, I’m sure Sir Bobby would be…
THIS UNITED LOOK DISJOINTED As United crumbled against Swansea on Sunday, I kept wondering how they managed to take nothing from a game in which they had so much ball possession.

UNITED BAG THREE As LVG walked off the pitch on Saturday afternoon after securing 3 points against Tottenham, you could see the smile of satisfaction on his face. Not at a team that outplayed its opponents, not at a team that played its best football, but at his Man Utd team that just scrapped the…
The Barclays Premiership opens this weekend, and what a season we have ahead of us! Would there be another surprise team like Southampton, punching above its weight this season? How damaging would results against relegation candidates affect the top teams? Would it be a photo finish at seasons end or would there be a Champions…
May 5, 2015 CHELSEA MAKE IT CRYSTAL CLEAR WITH JOSE AT THE HELM Crystal Palace offered the last resistance to the Roman army as they marched on to regain the title they lost five years ago to the Mancunians. Even as Pardew, Bolasie, Zaha, Puncheon and the others did all they could, there was no…
