After a pretty exciting 2-2 draw in the first FA Cup 3rd round tie between Tottenham and Leicester City the two sides are meeting Wednesday to settle it once and for all.

Video: Joe Allen opens the scoring for Liverpool

Some call him the Welsh Xavi while others simply call him Joe Allen, but the bottom line is the Liverpool midfielder is currently enjoying some great form. After Exeter held Liverpool to a 2-2 draw in their third round FA Cup tie, the two sides met at Anfield for the replay. What usually happens when […]

Video replay technology needs to be top priority

While I have discussed this topic before, the debate still rages on as to whether it is a wise decision to implement video replay technology in soccer. The issue, however, couldn’t be more clear. The International Football Association Board (IFAB) has even announced that they plan to start making steps towards introducing video replay technology […]

Ice Cube and Kevin Hart are in England doing press for Ride Along 2 and that meant a visit to Manchester to Premier League title contender Manchester City.

The Chase for 260 goals, can Wayne Rooney catch Alan Shearer?

Wayne Rooney didn’t have a very good 2015, at least by his standards. In a Manchester United shirt, the striker only scored 13 goals in the entire 2015 calendar. In the Premier League alone the number is only six. Rooney’s biggest moment in 2015 actually came in an England shirt when he became the countries […]

January transfer window is still as important as ever

As the month of January continues to pass us by, we are now approaching the end of the much debated January transfer window. All month long, teams have been once buy or sell players as needed for one month in the middle of the season. With no major deals going down so far, despite all […]

Has January transfer window become useless for EPL title contenders?

We’ve gone past the halfway point of the January transfer window, and that sound you are hearing is crickets on the transfer wire. What was once a crazy flurry of wheeling and dealing has seeming ground to a halt this year. That’s especially the case for the teams fighting at the top of the English […]

Video: Ashley Williams gives Swansea the lead over Watford

Swansea City have been free-falling down the table recently and are desperate to get things back on track. Monday night they face a Watford side that is also suddenly struggling for wins.

Who got the better deal in the Charlie Austin transfer?

With the £4m transfer of Charlie Austin from QPR to Southampton blazing to completion over the weekend, we need to look at who got the best deal. It would be easy to say Southampton. They got a quality goalscorer who is Premier League proven in Austin for only £4m. With their top scorer Graziano Pelle […]

Until they can get better players, Liverpool needs to learn how to get “ugly points”

When I get the chance to watch Liverpool play, whether it’s under Brendan Rodgers or Jurgen Klopp, I get a similar feeling during most of their games. Liverpool looks like they could be the better team and they look like they’re more likely to win throughout most of the game. Their issue is that more […]

Manchester United outlast Liverpool 1-0 in a sloppily played derby

This certainly wasn’t the best looking Northwest Derby game ever played but for those who made the trip from Manchester to Anfield, they wouldn’t have it any other way. After 77 minutes of Manchester United was seemingly completely disinterested of even shooting at the goal, Wayne Rooney scored the game winner in the 78th minute […]

Wild finish at Stamford Bridge, as Chelsea and Everton play out to 3-3 draw

If you didn’t stick around to watch the second half of Everton/Chelsea, then you missed out on one of the greatest finishes of this Premier League season. After an abysmal first half of football, that saw very little chances and both teams playing really conservatively, they really needed to step things up to not bore fans at […]

VIDEO: Chelsea turns game around with two quick goals

Chelsea was looking ragged, being run off their own pitch after John Terry’s own goal and Kevin Mirallas scoring the second for Everton.

VIDEO: John Terry scores own goal, Mirallas scores beauty

Chelsea got off to an inauspicious start in their game against Everton at Stamford Bridge. In a game where they hoped to get three points off a struggling Everton team and get over their own struggles, captain John Terry put in the first goal of the game into his own net. A rather typical own […]
