The New Englis Premier League Season

2009-08-17T12:05:00.000-07:00

The new English Premier League season has kicked off and as you would expect, the main protagonists have started much as the left off last season.The usual suspects, Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal and of course pretenders Man City who have spent more millions than any other club in the league all won their matches, none more impressive than Arsenal who crushed Everton at goodison park by 6 goals to 1.

Has Man Utd Already Lost The League Title?

2009-07-03T14:45:00.000-07:00

That Michael Owen has signed a two year contract with the champions is a very big shock to me. In jury prone Owen? You know, the most difficult thing for me to believe is the fact that Man Utd let Tevez, a world class striker go when we all saw what the guy can do.I just wonder how next season will be like, if Man Utd will be as competitive as the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool,Arsenal and don't

Confederations Cup Final,Brazil Is Brazil !!

2009-06-28T12:39:00.000-07:00

Did you ever think that the USA would play in the final of the confederations cup? or did you think they would beat Egypt or that they would drop Spain by two unreplied goals or did you think they would lead Brazil by two goals by half-time? If i have to answer any of the questions above, my answer would be a resounding no.But the Americans have done very well in this confederations cup, beating

Late strike fires Brazil into final

2009-06-25T14:21:00.000-07:00

An 87th-minute free-kick from defender Daniel Alves sends Brazil into the Confederations Cup final and leaves hosts South Africa heartbroken.But in all fairness, the South Africans took the game to the Brazilians, their work rate was first class and the really did not deserve to lose the game.But i did say in the earlier post that the Africans would play very well, but their attack was blunt in

USA Stun Spain!

2009-06-25T11:00:00.000-07:00

If the title to my last post was incredible, then this one is out of this world.Did you ever belief that the Americans could even draw with Spain, talkless of an outright win. But they won yesterday, and the goals were not scrappy goals. The played well and fully deserve their place in the final of this year's confederations cup against............?Wait a minute, are we going to see another

What Happened To Egypt Against USA?

2009-06-23T14:52:00.000-07:00

Hi guys, how are you enjoying the confederations cup currently holding in South Africa.For me, its a bit of an anti-climax seeing Egypt bundled out by unfancied USA. I enjoyed seeing the Egyptians play their first 2 matches, but the last match against the Americans, i don't know what happened. They only needed a draw, but how did they end up losing by 3 goals. Even a lone goal defeat would still

Tevez Finally Departs Man Utd

2009-06-20T14:31:00.000-07:00

Manchester United have confirmed that Carlos Tevez is leaving the club.United were willing to pay the £25.5m to turn the striker's two-year loan move into a permanent five-year deal but Tevez, 25, has decided to move on.Personally i think he has made the right decision following from how Man Utd dragged the whole issue. I am a Man Utd fan, but i don't like the way Tevez was treated.He has done

Has Africa Come Of Age?

2009-06-19T15:19:00.000-07:00

That Egypt has beaten Italy in the ongoing confederations cup in South Africa is no longer news, what remains news for me is the way and manner in which the the Pharoahs played the match. In their first match with the Brazilians, they were far better than the Celecao for most of the game, only to be undone by a wicked penalty call.I know people will be wandering why i am raving about the

Chelsea's Narrow Escape

2009-03-11T04:17:00.000-07:00

Is This Liverpool's Season?

2009-01-03T04:34:00.000-08:00

A few days into the new year, and The Reds are leading the English Premier league, the question on every one's mind is could this be liverpool's year of premier league glory?Every one would think that at this stage on the season, the big shots, Man Utd or Chelsea would be sitting on top of the league table. That is not so, The Reds are on top. Lets not forget their Champions league form over the

Big Phil Makes His First Major Blunder

2008-12-01T05:18:00.000-08:00

Hello guys, its been one of those long absenses from me again. I am so hooked offline that this blog and other of my blogs have suffered from that.Well, if i could help, i certainly would not neglect them. Back to the issue on ground.I am not a Chelsea fan, but i could contain my anger when Scolari substituted Mikel in their clash with Arsenal at the Bridge. Some people will think that am

The New Premiership Season

2008-09-27T06:05:00.000-07:00

Guys, i really must apologise for staying off this blog for such a long time. If i could avoid it,i sure would.But let's keep that aside and look at the new premiership season. I don't what you guys out there think, but i sure know that its starting to rock already.Some clubs are already into a lot of trouble and one is up for grabs, while Manchester City have already been bought by a Gulf

Man Utd v Chelsea Champions League Final, The Stuff Of Legends.

2008-05-21T04:36:00.000-07:00

Where i come from, we follow the European leagues with a passion. The English Premiership in particular is the toast of most fans. People virtually go crazy when their club is playing, you could imagine what today is like.Today i feel like legends will be made on both sides as Man Utd and Chelsea contest this all English Champions League final.Chelsea have never won this title before, and if they

FA Cup Final, Kanu Sends Pompey To Europe

2008-05-17T10:02:00.001-07:00

I like it when a brother climbs up through the ranks to the top and stays there. I am not overly patriotic here, but come on guys, Nwankwo Kanu has seen it all in football. He has played for the smallest and biggest clubs in Europe. Ajax, Inter Milan, Arsenal, you name them, and has made his mark on footballing sands.He was even told his playing career was over when he was diagnosed with a

FA CUP FINAL , Portsmouth v Cardiff, Time For History

2008-05-16T09:52:00.000-07:00

Guys, its time for drama again as the FA Cup reaches its climax. Wandering why i said drama right, well yeah because i watched when Barnesly did it to both Liverpool and Chelsea. They themselves got stuck when Cardiff played them. I have always know that the FA Cup is no respecter of clubsides. Now i don't know who to call the underdog in tomorrow's game.I will really want Pompey to win this at

Fantastic Utd Are English Premier League Champions

2008-05-11T10:10:00.000-07:00

I woke up today wandering why the last day of the season was not a saturday. This is my best day to watch football, it just gives me the relaxation i need to see out the weekend.I am really complaining about today being a sunday. Today we won the league ahead of Chelsea in what has turned out to be the closest season in living memory in the English Premier League. It sends chills down anyone's

Champions League Final, Who Wins The Title

2008-05-07T04:30:00.000-07:00

Since the day that Chelsea went to Newcastle and won, i feel a certain tightening in my stomach each time i see the premiership table. I really like it that the league is getting really tough, and clubs like Man Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea don't just run away with the premiership title. But this one is so close i feel like we will lose it.One thing that gives me a lot of confidence is the fact that

The Monster Called Bad Credit

2008-05-07T02:35:00.000-07:00

This time is a really bad time for people who had taken loans for one purpose or another.The credit crunch has hit everybody and almost every sector of the economy no matter where you are located, and the name of the game is bad credit.People can no longer afford to repay their loans on time and this is a really bad situation for the economy.It has led to a lot of homes having to be

English Premieship Title Race Down To The Wire

2008-05-06T09:23:00.001-07:00

My heart is in my mouth guys, of course we all know the outcome of last weekend's games and their effect on the title race as well as relegation battles. But as this happened before in the entire history of the premiership? I can't remember at all. But the refreshing thing about this new development is that it makes the league a lot more open and challenging. Gone are the days that clubs like

Payperpost Is Awesome, And They Pay Really Well

2008-05-06T08:42:00.000-07:00

Hi fellas, last time i posted i told you that i was kind of busy trying to help my sister fix her wedding. I had to travel to the beautiful mountain resort of Obudu in my native Nigeria for the wedding.Well i am back and better.Wandering why i am sounding so excited right, well anybody who just returned from such a wonderful place should be excited. But there is more to my excitement.Payperpost

Champions League Semi-Final 2nd Leg, Can Man Utd Take Out Barca?

2008-04-28T11:06:00.000-07:00

Sorry guys, i have been away for a while because of my sister's wedding. Around here, our marriage rites are a bit more complicated than what you Europeans are used to. You just walk down the aisle, and that is it.Before a man can take home his wife, he will have to go the brides village and meet her kinsmen to perform the traditional marriage rites, and thereafter also perform the white wedding

BARCELONA V MAN UTD CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL FIRST LEG

2008-04-23T10:05:00.000-07:00

I don't think i have the stomach for what we are about to witness this evening at the Nou Camp. Barcelona lay siege and we should expect anything and everything from them. The likes of Lionel Messi, who for me is the single biggest threat in tonight's encounter, will make life very difficult for Ferdinand and Co. in the Man Utd defense.Yesterday we saw Liverpool score 2 goals to literally give

LIVERPOOL V CHELSEA ,CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL FIRST LEG.Who draws 1st blood?

2008-04-22T02:54:00.000-07:00

If i knew today was a match day, then may thunder strike me dead. This is ho we swear in my place, nothing bad really. How about that for a wish for oneself. I really did not know that the 1st leg of the champions league semi-final was already upon us. What this means is that i have not prepared for today, but i guess i could be pardoned.My club, Manchester United is not playing until tomorrow.

Amodu Again For Super Eagles, Bad Move

2008-04-14T05:12:00.000-07:00

That the Nigeria Football Association have appointed Shuaibu Amodu as the new Super Eagles coach is no news, but what baffles me much as every soccer loving Nigerian is the wisdom in making him head coach. He has been the Super Eagles coach before, and actually did not do so bad.My problem with his 3rd coming is whether he has updated himself to the standard that will help his success. Don't

Man Utd V Arsenal, Title Decider?

2008-04-11T10:32:00.000-07:00

As i write this post, i am still under the influence of our qualification for the semi-final of the champions league at the expense of harpless AS Roma, and the elimination of Arsenal by the Reds.Don't get me wrong, i don't hate Arsenal, i just don't like the way Arsenal fans around where i live behave. As if they own the whole of football, as if they play more than everybody else, the arrogance

Liverpool V Arsenal Champions League Quarter Final Second Leg, Wenger Dreams On

2008-04-08T04:13:00.000-07:00

I wish someone could tell Arsene Wenger that the dreams and dreaming should end. The time for dreams have long passed.In the premier league, i don't see Manchester United giving up their lead, despite last sunday's stuttering against Middlesbrough. And Chelsea for Pete's sake is not letting up the chase on the leaders. The truth is simple, both Man Utd and Chelsea score a lot of goals, something

Bad Day At The Office For Man Utd

2008-04-07T10:48:00.000-07:00

For me, two things are always bound to happen when we play. Christiano Ronaldo will score and we will win. In my last post, i did say that C. Ronaldo will score,and he did not let us down. The guys is at the top of form right now.We did not win the match, cos Middlesbrough decided to give us a hell of a time at the Riverside, what a way to welcome your visitors. They played us as if they were

Kanu, Alive And Scoring As Pompey Reach FA Cup Final

2008-04-05T09:11:00.000-07:00

A second-half goal from Kanu was enough to send Portsmouth through to their first FA Cup final in 69 years. Ex-West Brom striker Kanu side-footed an easy chance to see off the Baggies after Dean Kiely had denied Milan Baros and Zoltan Gera had failed to clear. Baros, who looked to have handled in the build-up to the goal, missed a simple chance to seal the win. They were almost made to pay

Arsenal V Liverpool, Gunners Survive A Scare

2008-04-05T08:36:00.000-07:00

So for the second time in about a week, Arsenal hosted Liverpool at the Emirates stadium, and for the second time, the 2 teams part with a 1 all draw.In my opinion i think Arsenal were rather lucky and fortunate that Voronin came in and sort of made a mess of himself, failing to convert 2 golden chances to finish up the gunners at their own backyard.The Gunners made a lethargic start and fell

Middlesbrough v Man Utd, Time To Consolidate

2008-04-05T03:28:00.000-07:00

I tell you why i love saturdays, we Man. Utd play mostly on saturdays and so i spend my time counting every tick of the clock in anticipation of our match. Needless to say, my saturdays are usually very cool because we win our matches straight out.After taking out AS Roma in the champions league, we play Middlesbrough 'away', well it doesn't matter if we play away or not.I think that at this time

Arsenal V Liverpool, CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUARTER-FINAL FIRST LEG,A Real Cracker

2008-04-02T02:14:00.000-07:00

I don't mean to be rude, but i think that Arsenal are gonna get their sorry asses beaten by Liverpool over both legs of the tie. Now get me wrong, Arsenal play good passing football, but without scoring goals.In the premiership, i would have given the tie to Arsenal, but this is the champions league and Liverpool don't mess around in the champions league. They did very well when they beat AC

The Goal Machine Scores Yet Again

2008-04-01T13:36:00.000-07:00

By now everybody should know that we Man Utd beat Roma 2-0 at the Olympic Stadium in Rome to take a commanding lead into the second leg of the tie, and thus a leg already into the semi-final.The scoreline did not actually surprise me, Man Utd is in that kind of form right now, although Roma is also playing excellent football in the Italian league too.What also did not surprise me is the fact that

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUARTER-FINAL FIRST LEG ,Roma Again !!

2008-03-31T14:32:00.002-07:00

So we play Roma again, this will make the fifth time the two sides have met in the last year and Ferguson is expecting his side to have the upper hand at the Stadio Olimpico. United warmed up for Tuesday's big game in Rome with a superb 4-0 win over Aston Villa on Saturday to stretch their lead at the top of the Premiership to five points. In a repeat of the 2007 quarter-finals,

Have Arsenal Lost The Premier League Title To Man Utd?

2008-03-17T11:42:00.000-07:00

I think i am dreaming. I know i should not be bothering anyone with such nonsense, but i really don't i am alone in this.I am a Man Utd fan and i am really happy that we are leading the premiership and not Arsenal or Chelsea. Hey! nobody should get me wrong, i a just a fan who loves his team very much. With a game in hand, i think we will go on and win the league.But i wonder how many fans are

When i first heard about get paid for blogging, the first thing that came to my mind was fraud. I could not believe how someone would pay another just for writing his opinion on a single page website.But as i explored the subject matter, i quickly found out that people were indeed making a nice monthly income just by blogging. Not only do you earn for your writing, you are also doing blog

Can Liverpool Hold On?

2008-03-10T13:39:00.000-07:00

I am not a Liverpool fan, but i like the way they play the champions league. I really don't know what makes them play the way they do when it comes to the champions league, and play differently in the premier league.I really did not give them much chances against Inter Milan in the first leg, but they proved everybody wrong again by beating Inter 2-0 at Anfield.With the way they played, and with

Chelsea Gets The Barnsley Shocker

2008-03-08T11:47:00.000-08:00

So booting harpless Liverpool out of the English FA Cup was not enough for Barnsley, they have done the exact same thing to Chelsea. You know, i knew an upset might be on the cards in that match, but i thought that a team like Chelsea that scores a lot of goals could pull this one off, i was wrong.I could not believe it when i saw the clock reading only 5 minutes to the end of the game, with the

Is This The End Of And Era?

2008-03-05T13:38:00.000-08:00

Yesterday, we saw a young Arsenal side knock out AC Milan, and today Real Madrid got eliminated from the champions league by AS Roma. One thing was glaring from both matches, both teams were beaten and eliminated on their home turf. Milan lost at the San Siro to an English side for the first time. Is this the demise of Europe's mega clubs?Between AC Milan and Real Madrid, more than 10 European

Arsenal Stun Holders Milan

2008-03-04T14:17:00.000-08:00

It looks like Arsenal have finally shaken off the underdogs tag, as they superbly beat holders AC Milan 2-0 in an entertaining match at the San Siro. In a match the Gunners seemingly controlled from the 20th minute of the first half, Arsene Wenger's side produced a virtuoso display but had to wait until the 84th minute before Cesc Fabregas fired in a low 30-yard finish.Emmanuel Adebayor then

End Of The Road For Arsenal ?

2008-03-03T10:39:00.000-08:00

I told a friend before Arsenal's champions league first leg tie with AC Milan that they will not advance to the next round, he argued so passionately that we placed a bet which he lost. He is a die hard Gunner. He believes that Arsenal will win every match they play. I love their smart short passes, but good football without goals will definitely land any team in hot water.This is what Arsenal

Nicklas Bendtner Saves Arsenal

2008-03-01T08:58:00.000-08:00

I had thought that Aston Villa will be a very stern test for Arsenal, and so it turned out. I constantly tell Arsenal fans that fancy football with lots of ball possession do not win football matches. What is the use enjoying about 70% possession of the ball and failing to score.Against Villa today, it was always going to be difficult. They fell behind to an own goal by Senderos from a cross by

Can Chelsea Overtake Both Arsenal And Manchester United To Win The Premiership?

2008-02-29T02:58:00.000-08:00

I am a Manchester United fan and i think we are going to win the premiership title ahead of Arsenal, but both us and the Gunners have a problem. A common enemy in Chelsea. Chelsea's league form has been really great of recent, and that has got everybody having second thoughts about the so much talked about 2 horse race between Arsenal and Man. Utd for the premiership title.With both Arsenal and

Tomorrow Is A Super Saturday

2008-02-29T01:37:00.000-08:00

I personally cannot wait for 1st March, 2008. I call it super saturday for the English Premiership.It doesn't happen often that the top 3 in the league all play the same day, but tomorrow that will happen and all 3 top teams in the Premiership play very tricky matches. With Arsenal 3 points ahead of Manchester United, and with Chelsea not quite far behind, the matches of 1st March is keenly

David Beckam Deserves A England 100 Caps

2008-02-27T12:26:00.000-08:00

I am one that thinks that English players are most of the times over-valued, except one. I love Beckam as a player even though he is English. He has served his country well, and i don't see why he should not be given his 100th cap at least to say thank. England boss Fabio Capello did not pick Beckham, 32, for this month's win over Switzerland and he fears a lack of fitness could see him sidelined

Between Keshi And Siasia As Eagles Coach!!

2008-02-27T11:01:00.000-08:00

I am a Super Eagles fan, and will continue to be despite our great team's downward slide. A slide that has seen the Super Eagles struggle on the continent with minows before unheralded rub shoulders with us. I hear we are even now being called the "Super Chickens", this is not funny at all and it hurts so bad.It is on paper that our most glorious moments in football was orchestrated by a white

Is Inter Milan In Crisis?

2008-02-25T04:58:00.000-08:00

After being substituted in the 81st minute,Patrick Vieira refused to shake manager Roberto Mancini and the went on to kick some of the water bottles by the subsitutes bench.This happened during yesterday's 1-1 draw with Sampdoria.Just last week, fellow team mates Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marco Materazzi had a bust up, and we all know how this could easily go against the team.Inter play real good

Microsoft Withdraws HD DVD Player From X BOX 360

2008-02-24T01:41:00.001-08:00

I don't know what to say or how to put it,but this represents a personal opinion. The decision by Microsoft to stop the production of HD DVD Players for the X Box 360 is a shame.i am just beginning to wander if competition from the likes of Toshiba is finally snuffing Microsoft's plans.I personally enjoyed the 360 with the HD DVD and now,i don't know what we are to expect as gamers.Hear their

As Lagerbäck Tries New Players Before Euro 2008

2008-02-23T13:34:00.000-08:00

During Sweden's last friendly against Turkey, coach Lars Lagerbäck tried some new players including FC Groningen striker Marcus Berg and Rasmus Lindgren, who recently joined AFC Ajax from Groningen play well. I think this is a very positive development because it was beginning to look as if we were running short of players to compete at the very top.With most our veteran players nearing the end

Can Arsenal Win The Premiership?

2008-02-23T11:30:00.001-08:00

I know playing against a team with a man down can be daunting,but some teams should not have much difficulties winning games like that,but am forced to ask myself this question after watching Arsenal throw away a goal lead to draw at Birmingham today.With a 5 points lead over Manchester United, one would think that Arsenal would press home their advantage by taking every scoring opportunity they

Sweden And Lars Lagerbäck

2008-02-14T14:19:00.000-08:00

That Lars Lagerbäck is still Sweden coach is what i call continuity, and that is supposed to bring in good results every time we play,whether in the world cup or the Euro championship.At any of these championships,we parade some of the best and in-form players,but at the end of it all,we don't have much to show for all our troubles.I just wander if it because other teams are far better than us or

2008-02-12T08:41:00.000-08:00

I can't believe that the nations cup is over, just like that.Funny how time flies when you are having fun, or no fun at all,that's if you are a Nigerian.The situation with our football is really terrible, i have seen our great team played woefully,but this has to be the grand daddy of all.Now so many people are talking about a new coach, with Sunday Oliseh even putting his name in the hat to be

So we are down to last 4 at the African Nations Cup in Ghana.Cote d IvoireGhanaCamerounEgyptThey will all do battle today to and try to qualify to the final,and i have to say that these are the best at the moment.The Ivoriens are by far the best team,the Camerounians have not surprised me by getting this far,thanks to their resilience and fighting spirit.The Egyptians have done very well as well

What A Disgrace!!

2008-02-04T03:20:00.000-08:00

So Nigeria has finally been booted out of the ongoing nations cup in Ghana by the host team.And to think that Nigeria could not beat a 10 man Ghana team after the sending off of the Black Stars Captain John Mensah for impeding a goal bound move by Osaze, and that they even allowed the Ghanaians to dictate the pace of the game with 10 men is really appalling.Well, this has only confirmed what

GHANA VS NIGERIA , Mother of all battles Who will triumph on Sunday!!

2008-02-02T07:36:00.000-08:00

African football has over the years served up its fair share of compelling rivalries, but Ghana versus Nigeria outshines them all.These two nations just love to knock the living daylights out of each other (in anything), but more so on a football pitch.In my opinion, their rivalry is the one by which all others are measured and the Africa Cup of Nations will heat up on Sunday when they collide in

Super Eagles Live Again!!

2008-01-30T04:17:00.000-08:00

I did say yesterday that if the Super Eagles of Nigeria qualify for the last 8 of the ongoing nations cup in Ghana,then God is a Nigerian,well it turned out that the Nigerians did just enough to qualify for the quarter finals,with more than a helping hand from Drogba and Co.As a Nigerian myself,i am pretty happy that the embarrassment that would have followed our non qualification passed us by

PS3 'out of the woods', Says Sony CEO
