The top four all win in Serie A making for no surprises but Roma did require a call to the bench to maintain the status quo. Second half substitutes, Guily and Vucinic, scoring late and within 3 minutes of each other, helped Roma come from behind to do the double on AC Milan. The Rossoneri […]

I kept hearing the Star-Spangled Banner in my head during Fulham's critical 1-0 victory over Everton today as six Americans, five of whom currently still play for the national team, took part in the game. Kasey Keller, the US all-time leader in wins and shutouts, posted another of each at the club level for Fulham […]

Arsenal have just one defeat in the league this season – shoddy solace for a third-place finish. The Gunners have played four Premier League matches since Feb 11. Though maintaining their ever crucial unbeaten streak, they have dropped eight points to Manchester United, who are now level on points, ahead on goal difference and have […]

You almost had to figure that Jeremie Aliadiere would score the goal that would see Boro to a 1 – 1 draw at the Emirates. This is the guy that could not buy a goal during his long stay at Arsenal yet pops up with one that leads again to points dropped by the Gunners. […]

Can Roma do the double? Surely is the question this matchday, as the Giallorossi welcome AC Milan to the Stadio Olimpico. Roma victorious 1 – 0 in the first seasonal head to head need to take all 3 points today, if they hope to overtake leaders Inter. To their credit the capital side have lost […]

Benfica's struggles continued as they failed to make any impression in Spain, as Getafe progressed to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Cup with a 1-0 (Agg. 3-1) win thanks to Albin’s gorgeous lob. Getafe's reward is a quarter-final matchup against my favourites to win FC Bayern Munich. Bayern had for all intents and purposes sealed […]
