• Great atmosphere at Stamford Bridge tonight. This is a proper, proper European occasion. It wouldn’t be complete without pouring rain either; the drearier, the better. • Terrific long, diagonal ball from Ballack to Ashley Cole in the 8th minute. The German captain has been a man on a mission recently. • Why did Torres […]

Imagine for a minute that you're one of the executives at either Fox Soccer Channel or Setanta Sports, and you have to decide which Premier League matches you'll show on the final day of the season on U.S. TV. All of the matches on May 11 kick off at the same time: 10am ET/3pm GMT. […]

I had a crazy evening trying to get my new LCD TV delivered (long story short – it's still not there but should be by this evening) so I am a little behind on putting together my usual verbose preview. I think the lineups will look like this:

Here are pictures of what are rumoured to be the new designs for the Tottenham home, away and third shirts for the 2008/2009 season.

This was more of the game everyone wanted to see. Not loaded with chances but a very dramatic tilt as United clung to their one goal lead with some desperate defending as they dropped everyone into their own half to nullify the Barcelona attacks. Backed by one of the louder Old Trafford crowds in recent […]

Without their best forward in Wayne Rooney and their best defender in Nemanja Vidic, Manchester United made a fabulous 14th-minute strike from Paul Scholes stand up with a 1-0 victory over Barcelona to win their Champions League semifinal tie. Patrice Evra put in a man of the match-type performance at left back this afternoon for […]

Have you ever wondered what are the most popular soccer sites that American visit? EPL Talk has the answer thanks to Hitwise. Here are the most recent statistics based on market share for the week ending April 26:

One moment of magic is all that seperates the sides at the half. A cracking goal from Paul Scholes has United in the lead 1-0. Scholes was gifted the chance after a poor clearance from Zambrotta fell at his feet and he cracked a half-volley into the top corner from about 25 yards out. The […]

I'll be on blogging live today so check back at the half for my comments. A few thoughts prior to kick-off: 1) Surprised to not see Rooney even make the bench and both Park & Nani starting. It points to a wide game from United as they'll hope to pressure the Barca fullbacks.

After a strangely defensive match at the Nou Camp in which they seemed to adopt a catenaccio mindset, United will look to get back to their usual attacking approach. At the Nou Camp, United appeared content to hope for something on the counter-attack often leaving Cristiano Ronaldo isolated alone up front with Rooney defending on […]

As I wrote previously, it looks like Manchester City are going to sack Sven-Goran Eriksson after just one season in charge. In that article, I outlined my reasoning for stating that this was a bad move.

Amado Guevara’s signing has turned Toronto FC from a laughing stockinto one of the top teams in the league right now. That’s what a Latin flavored #10 can do when surrounded by legitimate European talent that has survived in tougher leagues than MLS. Moreover, the success of TFC shows that despite boasts of MLS’ improvement, […]

Fox Soccer Channel couldn't have picked a better time to show the U.S. premiere of "Blue Revolution," the movie about Chelsea FC. The 24/7 soccer network will be debuting the film on Wednesday, May 7. Blue Revolution chronicles the three record breaking seasons at Chelsea FC from 2004-2007 seen through the eyes of management, players, […]
