What happened in the second half of Liverpool v. Southampton

0 comments by on 3/23/2016

The recent Premier League match between Liverpool and Southampton was one of the most spectacular collapses that we have seen for some time. It is baffling how a team can go from being clearly on top in the first half, to the extent where they could have and should have been up by more, yet […]

Is it time to admit West Ham are favorites for 4th?

I’ll admit, the title of this piece is bold, but West Ham have been one of the most consistent teams in the Premier League this season. While this may come down to a lack of pressure from the belief that they are punching above their weight, West Ham have blossomed under Slaven Bilic. It couldn’t […]

Should Manchester City have announced that Pellegrini was leaving in February?

On February 1st, 2016, Manchester City had 47 points and were second in the Barclays Premier League, just three points behind leaders Leicester City. It was on that day that the club made the decision to announce that manager Manuel Pellegrini would not be returning as their manager next season. A few days later they […]

Is 2015/16’s Aston Villa the worst Premier League team ever?

0 comments by on 3/17/2016

This season has not been a great one for fans of Aston Villa. With 30 games played, they have only won a total of three and sit with a total of 16 points. Some pretty abysmal stuff. Even when they have managed to simply not lose, the Aston Villa players have looked resigned to their fate. With […]

As March Madness tips off we in the United States have been busy filling out our brackets in search of the next cinderella team that may make a run to the Final Four. Of course, over in the Barclays Premier League we’ve been treated to a whole season of a cinderella team as Leicester City […]

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

0 comments by on 3/16/2016

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 […]

The real reason behind this crazy Premier League season

0 comments by on 3/11/2016

This season has seen an unprecedented amount of success for traditionally smaller teams, compared to the larger ones. The obvious is Leicester City, who are currently five points ahead at the top of the table. There are others that need credit, though. Teams like West Ham United, Stoke, and, to an extent, Watford have all […]

We’re down to just two handfuls of games in what can only be described as the wildest ride in the history of the English Premier League. Three teams have begun to separate themselves at the top — leaders Leicester City and North London rivals Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur (sorry Manchester City you’re not chasing down […]

Are Manchester City now out of the Premier League title race?

0 comments by on 3/3/2016

With the 3-0 loss to Liverpool yesterday, Manchester City sit on tied on points, though with a game in hand, with city rivals Manchester United. They may have won the Capital One Cup, but Manchester City now find themselves in a scrap for 4th, not just the title. We have to ask, does this loss take Manchester […]

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 […]

Would Mauricio Pochettino be a good fit at Manchester United

0 comments by on 2/16/2016

At this point it’s no secret that Manchester United will likely be managed by someone other then Louis van Gaal next season. Rumors have flown around over who their next manager will be, most prominently former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, but lately another name has started to gain traction, Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino. In just […]

The Anfield walkout is a Premier League problem as well as a Liverpool problem

The English Premier League is in the middle of a crisis. Last weekend, upwards of 10,000 Liverpool fans walked out on their team in the 77th minute of their game against Sunderland, in protest of £77 ($111) tickets in the new stand as well as increasing ticket prices over the years. It’s not as if […]

Is Mauricio Pochettino the best manager in England?

0 comments by

For the big name clubs in England this season, the 2015/16 Premier League campaign has been defined by turmoil at the managerial position. Louis van Gaal has seemingly been on the hot seat all season but has somehow escaped firing despite United winning just five of their last 16 matches – with two of those […]
