On Saturday, Manchester United's Nani scored a goal against Tottenham Hotspur which was extremely controversial and will be the topic of many conversations over the next few days. Looking at it again and again, the goal was a result of poor sportsmanship by Nani and a mix-up in communication between Spurs goalkeeper Heurehlo Gomes and […]

As the trio on the EPL Talk Podcast mentioned in the latest episode, it's been a long week in terms of there being little major news breaking and not a lot of football on television. But now that Saturday has arrived, we're graced with the familiar return of the Premier League. Today there are several […]

Der Bundesliga continues with a massive match-day ten. Bottom-feeders Koln host Hamburg, Kaiserslautern take on Gladbach in a tough relegation six-pointer, Frankfurt visit St. Pauli in a tough mid-table battle, Wolfsburg host Stuttgart in one of the games of the weekend, Werder Bremen take on Nurnberg, and Leverkusen travel to Schalke in what will be […]

Bayern Munich produced another strong home display following their 2-1 win over Werder Bremen in the DFB Pokal. One of the poorest, more drab first-half displays I've ever watched ended with a sweet Demichelis goal to put Bayern Munich 1-0 up from the very first corner of the game. After the break, Bayern Munich played […]

When the creators of Special 1 TV chose Jose Mourinho, Wayne Rooney, Sven-Goran Eriksson and Sir Alex Ferguson as some of the main characters of the show, it was an incredibly wise decision not only because they're wonderful characters but also because they're in the news all the time. All four of them have been […]

It's safe to say that this year's promotion class has been a revelation. Newcastle will of course, always be a top-flight side for whom relegation is an aberration, but both West Brom and Blackpool have been a breath of fresh air in the way they've consistently played attractive football. It would be a shame if […]

No-one can deny the impact that Craig Bellamy has had on Cardiff City this season. The man on loan from Manchester City has given the whole club a lift and helped them make an excellent start to this year's Championship campaign. Dave Jones' men sit level on points with Queens Park Rangers at the top […]

Newcastle and Sunderland...where to begin? They may not be the most recognisable teams in the world and I'm pretty sure there are a lot of people in the world that have never even heard of these two places. They sound quite simple settlements, yet the history in the North East England is spectacular and you'll […]

Saturday's late game features Tottenham's visit to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United in arguably the weekend's most entertaining contest. Manchester United are coming off a decent enough week which saw them finally win away in the Premier League at Stoke City by the score of 2 goals to 1. Their midweek Carling Cup […]

In this week's installment of Friday Flashback Videos, we continue out journey through 1970s English football by landing on the 1971-72 season and taking us from August until the end of the season. As usual, there is so much to watch and so many observations that can be made of how different the game was […]

Torsten Frings' contract at Werder Bremen runs out at the end of the season, and there have been doubts as to whether the midfield general will be given an extension to his current deal. Frings has recently made clear in an interview that if his stay at Werder Bremen were not extended, he would not […]

Bayern Munich's midweek DFB Pokal win aganist Werder Bremen will give them a much-needed kick of confidence for this weekend's tie against Freiburg, who were shockingly knocked out of the Pokal in midweek against Energie Cottbus. Louis van Gaal's side need to pick up all possible points, because they already find themselves twelve points behind […]

This is the time of year for Major League Soccer to start their playoffs and the USSF second division are awaiting the second leg match in their championship final between the Carolina Railhawks and the Puerto Rico Islanders. This was supposed to be the fun part for one playoff season to start as another one […]

Not even a slow, non-Champions League week can slow down the EPL Talk Podcast team, with myself, Kartik Krishnaiyer and Laurence McKenna bringing you this wrap-up of Carling Cup action and the week's news before previewing this weekend's fixtures in the English Premier League. Front and center, as far as the matches are concerned: Tottenham […]
