"There's only one Titus Bramble" chanted the Wigan faithful, and he made the difference, earning a point in their 1-1 draw with Liverpool. Torres scored the initial goal, which salvaged Liverpool a point, but they have to be extremely disappointed with yet another poor result at "fortress" Anfield, winning only four of ten. Any persistent […]

Phew. After a jampacked holiday schedule that came fast and furious, fans and players alike now get a chance to catch their breath as the next round of games doesn't come until the 12th. The Carling Cup semifinals and the 3rd Round of the FA Cup will have to tide everyone over until then and […]

Norman Hubbard of ESPN Soccernet has written an interesting article on who he thinks have been the worst players of the season so far. Personally, most of the article is spot on but there are a few choices that I don't agree with. Liverpool – Peter Crouch. Has Hubbard not seen Sissoko play this season? […]

Before I get started, a quick correction on yesterday's post – QPR's deals for Connolly and Ephraim are permanent moves and not just loan deals.

Reports out of Europe indicate that Luis Figo has signed a contract with AEG. This is interesting because unless I read MLS rules incorrectly the Galaxy cannot sign another designated player. That would mean Figo is headed to Houston and my understanding is that Dom Kinnear wasn't really entertaining the thought of a DP. Of […]

I know this sounds corny but in the holiday season of giving, that's exactly what the Premiership did as this was the most exciting week of soccer, at least that I can remember, in 2007 as far as England's top league goes.As we all know, the Christmastime schedule is packed with teams playing three or four games in the […]

Manager Fashion Statement of the Year: Sam Allardyce's Pink Scarf Big Sam has been coming up short in the league this season, but not in this category. He had some tough competition from Avram Grant (Entirely Black Wardrobe), Paul Jewell (Sweatshirt/Popped Collar Dress Shirt) and Alan Curbishley (Track Suit). But, in the end, the ridiculous […]
