Has Carlos Tevez gone on strike? Or is he suspended? I would say both. Either way, he is not going to be playing in a sky blue shirt again, and rightly so. Tevez was selfish and spoilt on Wednesday night. He signed with a contract reportedly worth £250,000 a week, and the very least City […]

MMMMMMMM........forbidden donut. Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea, whose shaky start in the Prem has supporters nervously munching on their prawn sandwiches, was caught scarfing a doughnut without paying for it. De Gea and two pals allegedly entered a Tesco's outside Manchester where they each selected a tasty treat from a Krispy Kreme display case. They […]

At the Stadio San Paolo earlier this week, in front of a thunderous support, Napoli made their grand entrance onto the European stage, as they defeated Villareal 2-0 in their first home match in the Champions League. Perhaps it is almost time for the football world to stand up and take notice of Napoli. The […]

Fulham plays Queens Park Rangers this weekend in a highly anticipated derby between two clubs with something to prove. Fulham is looking for their first win of the season, while QPR is looking to pick up much-needed points. While the actual game doesn't kick off until Sunday morning, the FIFA 12 simulation machine has been […]

In the back-and-forth battle between Manchester City and Manchester United supporters during the past two years, which included billboards in the city advertising 'Welcome to Manchester' adorned with Tevez's face on a blue background, it's now the turn of Manchester United fans to poke some fun. MUST (Manchester United Supporters Trust) have created an image […]

This weekend's schedule of Premier League games features a few derbies, which are always hotly contested matches. You've got the tense match between Everton and Liverpool to kick the weekend off on Saturday. Fulham plays QPR on Sunday morning, while Tottenham takes on Arsenal in the late kick-off on Sunday. Recently it's been the clash […]

A season-defining September match, three points towards a berth in the MLS Cup Playoffs. The Philadelphia Union, behind a clinical strike from their second round draft pick, stated their intentions for the Eastern Conference, defeating DC United 3-2. Michael Farfan, a midfielder who coach Peter Nowak has used in multiple roles in the squad, took […]

How much of Arsenal's fall from grace last season and so far this season can be blamed on rivals Manchester City? The shift of power from north London to east Manchester is quite tangible especially when you consider that in recent years Emmanuel Adebayor, Gael Clichy, Samir Nasri and Kolo Toure have all exited Emirates for […]

Bolton’s miserable run of form continued with a fifth straight defeat now sees them occupy the Alternative Premier League (APL)’s bottom spot. The Arsenal v Bolton clash turned out to be a bottom three clash – not something that I thought I’d be saying at the start of the season. It took the sending off […]

What a storming start to the season Stoke City has had. The club sits in seventh place in the Premier League, having had probably the most testing start of all the teams. Tony Pulis’ men have quietly managed to grab five points from Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool. And despite one slip up at The […]

In their latest incarnation, The New York Cosmos may have only played one game so far — in their defeat against Manchester United in the Paul Scholes testimonial — but thanks to the just released FIFA 12, the Cosmos have come back to life again. And this time they have won a game, against L.A. […]

As the dust settles on yet another disappointing outing in the Premier League for Sunderland, fans on Wearside have lost patience with boss Steve Bruce. The 2-1 defeat to top flight new boys Norwich City on Monday evening leaves the Black Cats 14th in the table and still seeking their first away win. League positions […]

Pro Evolution Soccer 2012 (PES 2012) was released this week. To promote the game, Konami has released a series of TV commercials entitled "Check Out The Man" featuring Robert Roberto Roberto, "The World's Greatest Referee." To me, these are far more memorable than the FIFA 12 TV commercial released this month. Watch these interesting videos […]

Initially, I didn't plan on getting PES 2012 but after playing around with FIFA 12 and noting the upgrade from last year to this year and also wanting to find out why there are so many mixed feelings on the two, I broke down and bought PES anyway. I will preface by saying that […]

Juventus might be on top of the Serie A table but it is too early to consider them as serious contenders before they can register a notable win against one of the elite teams such as Milan or Napoli. The upcoming fixtures will offer the Bianconeri the perfect opportunity to measure their improvement and how […]
