Two teams with two different objectives. Hull City battling for Premier League survival. Arsenal battling to win the Premier League title. So, it was no wonder that the KC Stadium on Saturday resembled a battlefield with both teams getting physical as they attempted to become victorious. As it ended up, it was Arsenal that grabbed […]

After a Champions League week in which both Arsenal and United cruised through, the media in UK goes overboard. There are rarely any shades of grey in press coverage here. You’re a hero or a zero and that’s pretty much it. At the moment you’d think Rooney had actually invented heading the ball, so extreme […]

Thursday gives the team of Kartik Krishnaiyer, Laurence McKenna and Richard Farley their first chance to reflect on a banner week for the Premiership in the UEFA Champions League. The team gets together to discuss Manchester United's 4-0 (7-2) win over AC Milan, Arsenal's 5-0 (6-2) win over Porto, Thursday's Europa League match for Fulham […]

Arsenal's stunning Champions League win over Porto.

Dear Monsieur Wenger, I wanted to take the time to congratulate you on your team's recent successes in the Premier League and more specifically the UEFA Champions League. You've fought back and are in the heat of a title race and reaching the last eight in any competition is deserved of accolades, but the most prestigious […]

In a well-known game in England, one footballer slid into another late. The challenge was poor, two-footed, and probably deserved a card, but there was no malice associated with it. Unfortunately, the defender missed the ball and caught the other player’s foot, breaking his metatarsal bone. The injury was hardly career threatening, but it did put […]

The new Deloitte Money League is out and the Bundesliga is stronger than ever.

That's it then. Arsenal have officially turned the corner. In the same way that Eduardo's injury, Stuart Parnaby's dive and William Gallas's teary outburst reflected the collapse of their 2007-08 title challenge, so Ramsey's injury, Danny Pugh's waving arms and Cesc Fabregas's penalty will reflect Arsenal's glorious rampage to the title. Yet despite the significance […]

Beer Cup Final & Another Big 4 Beaten by a Door Knocker. Landon, You"ll Never Get One Easier Than That Congratulations to Manchester United for picking up the first piece of silverware on offer this season as they came out on top of a 2-1 scoreline v Aston Villa in the Carling Cup Final on […]

Ryan Shawcross had no intention of turning Aaron Ramsey‘s leg into putty when he went into his tackle yesterday. Martin Taylor had no interest in seeing Eduardo’s leg shattered in two when he went studs up against him two years ago. Dan Smith took no delight in the crunching sound of Abou Diaby’s ankle being […]

In the Jewish faith, the act of becoming a man at thirteen is a huge step. Standing before your family, friends, and the community as a whole, you are recognized as a full member of the community. For me as a Jew, that is the moment that I became a man. For most of you, […]

**Video removed per the request of Premier League** Anyone watching the Stoke City against Arsenal game on Saturday would have been absolutely sickened to see the horrific injury against Arsenal forward Aaron Ramsey. The horror show tackle could easily end Ramsey's career such was the extent of the injury. The incident happened in the second […]

When watching Manchester City's fantastic 4-2 Victory away to league leaders Chelsea, one thing was paramount in that game and it wasn't Wayne Bridge V John Terry, Two red cards, Manchester City's flowing football, Shay Given's commanding goal keeping or Roberto Mancini's great man management and control of the game. It was Gareth Barry. I lost count […]

Arsenal will sport a new home shirt for the 2010/2011 season which will be a throwback to the shirt design worn by the 1971 double-winning team, according to the Arsenal Insider blog. According to the blog, the shirt commemorates players such as Charlie George, John Radford and George Armstrong when Bertie Mee's side won the […]

The Marquis De Sade was never short of a quote or two, but one that currently could be applied to certain members of Chelsea's first team squad at the current time sprang to mind after today's latest off field crisis at Stamford Bridge. "Lust is to the other passions what the nervous fluid is to […]
