Why players coming back from injury is a bad thing for Manchester United

Manchester United’s up and down season finally looked like it was going to get back on track. They had scored three goals each in back to back games against Derby County and Stoke City before drawing at Stamford Bridge. But of course just like it has all year, whenever things seemed like they started to […]

“In an era of Champions League superstars, do fans still care? Do the fans still dream of drawing a big club, of slaying a giant? Do the players dream of the Wembley arch, like I once dreamed of the Twin Towers? Do the chairmen still pray for a lucrative draw at Anfield or Old Trafford? […]

Video: James Rodriguez doubles Real Madrid’s lead

It was always going to be a tough task for AS Roma to come back from two goals down away from home in the second leg of their Round of 16 tie with Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League. The Romans would need to attack to get back in the tie, while playing cautiously […]

Video: Theo Walcott follows Giroud brace with brace of his own

It’s no secret Arsenal have been struggling for form recently. Part of that issue is that they haven’t been able to get consistent goalscoring from any of their stars recently. Danny Welbeck’s return from injury has provided a small spark, but it’s also caused a shift in Arsenal’s team, which has resulted in Theo Walcott […]

Video: Olivier Giroud gives Arsenal the lead over Hull City

It’s been a tough stretch recently for Arsenal. They’ve taken just 10 of their last 27 points in the league, and have likely fallen out of the title race. Over in the Champions League their situation isn’t looking good either, as they lost 2-0 at home to Barcelona and their only chance of advancing would […]

Leicester City’s win over Norwich shows they are title favorites

It used to be a familiar sight at Old Trafford. When Sir Alex Ferguson was winning Premier League titles in the 90’s and 00’s it seemed like it almost happened weekly. A smaller club would come in to Old Trafford and their tactics would be that of ‘damage control.’ They’d keep nine or 10 men […]

Tears for Piers: The Manchester United Edition

When Robin van Persie left Arsenal to sign with Manchester United, well known and very outspoken Arsenal fan and occasional CNN reporter Piers Morgan was not happy. As he’s known to do, Morgan immediately took to twitter to go into a full blown meltdown about how he thought van Persie was different and selling him […]

Video: Chris Smalling gives Manchester United the lead

The first 35 or so minutes of Manchester United’s 5th round FA Cup tie against Shrewbury Town was looking like any other typical Manchester United match. United possessed the ball and possessed the ball some more. Eventually they would stop possessing the ball long enough to send a 25 yard shot 30 yards wide or […]

The Copa America Centenario Draw was certainly something

If you were expecting the broadcast of the Copa America Centenario draw to kick off and get right down to business, well then this was probably the first live draw for a major FIFA tournament you’ve ever watched.

Video: Edison Cavani gets through to give PSG the lead

You have to give Chelsea credit. They faced an onslaught of a PSG attack from the moment the game kicked off and they never relented, they even took their chances and found an equalizer at the very end of the first half. However when the second half started PSG seemed to up their onslaught even […]

Video: Jon Obi Mikel Equalizes for Chelsea

Jon Obi Mikel! The ageless wonder. For all the turnover that there’s been at Stamford Bridge over the years, all the players and managers that have come and gone, there has always been Jon Obi Mikel, seemingly always coming off the bench for Chelsea. Thrust into the starting XI for the suspended Nemanja Matic, Mikel […]

Video: Zlatan Ibrahimovic fires free kick past Chelsea

One of the main reasons a neutral fan would tune in to a PSG match is to see what Zlatan Ibrahimovic does next. Over the past few years Zlatan has turned himself into one of the greatest characters in world soccer, which was certainly aided by his tendency to refer to himself in the third […]
