I had a chance to do something today which I rarely get to do anymore. That's to sit and watch Fox Soccer Channel for several hours in a row on a day other than a Saturday or Sunday (when I'm usually glued to the Premier League). Of course, like many of you, it was a […]

English Football suffered an embarrassing home defeat to a good Croatia side Wednesday night.

Here's a prediction of what's going to happen in the search for England's next manager. Currently, Jose Mourinho is the 4-1 favorite to be the next England manager according to the bookies. In the next 48 hours, expect Jose Mourinho to rule himself out of the running for the job. At this stage in his […]

It's official. Steve McClaren has been sacked as England manager just one day after the country's exit from the Euro 2008 qualifying process. To be honest, there are many England fans and journalists who are happy this morning. They're pleased because "Second Choice Steve" (as The Guardian dubbed him after Scolari turned down the job […]

In this week's EPL Talk Podcast, I warned listeners that Croatia would love nothing more than to visit Wembley and steal a win putting their country on the back pages of sportspages worldwide and making manager Slaven Bilic look like a mastermind (and a future Premier League manager). Well, they did it by beating England […]

Rumors have come and rumors have gone along with promises and unfulfilled guarantees after his second stint ended on June 30th. Now this old flame rekindled and the dream quickly became a reality in the past 36 hours. Reports surfaced last night both during and after Argentina's loss to Colombia in Bogota.
