As Aston Villa's European dreams come to a halt, manager Martin O'Neill says he would allow Gareth Barry to move on if the midfielder so desires. Once again, Barry is expected to request a move to Liverpool. We all remember the tiresome saga of his transfer attempt last summer when Liverpool tried to unload Xabi […]

I was having a good look at Tottenham's proposal for a new stadium overlapping their current plot at White Hart Lane last night and my brain started to tick. However difficult these proposals appear to be (and indeed I hope they go through) it seems Spurs are not alone in their ambitions and indeed there are a glut of […]

When Dirk Kuyt tries to collect a long pass out of the air it's like the the scene in the nature channel documentary when the gazelle eludes the mountain lion. The cat gets a paw on his prey, but cannot take the thing down. The ball scoots out of Kuyt's reach and he helplessly chases […]

When a team only wins 2 games out of 18, you'd fully expect them to be propping up the Premiership table, already planning for life in the Championship the following season. Thankfully for Hull City, their fantastic start to the season has kept them out of the bottom 3, hanging on by their fingernails to […]

Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger's post match reactions following last weeks FA cup semi finals predictably brought up the issue of the Wembley pitch. To be fair to the man with a KBE and his old rival, the surface at Wembley doesn't seem fitting to a stadium as iconic (and costly) as the re-built Wembley. But as Guus Hiddink rightfully pointed […]

Am I the only person who is sick to death of having the league table flashed up at every opportunity? Am I the only person sick to death of hearing 'If Liverpool win today they will go back above United' (despite the fact they will have played more games)? And last but not least, am I the […]

Well its one of those strange things that football sometimes conjures up some little nugget that makes you check the facts fully before you really believe it could be true For example, Liverpool never lost when Ian Rush scored until the League Cup final of 1987 against Arsenal. 145 games Liverpool went without losing when […]

On Monday's episode of the World Soccer Daily show, radio co-host Steven Cohen failed to apologize to Liverpool supporters regarding the inaccurate statements he made about their role in the Hillsborough Disaster that occurred on April 15, 1989. The inaccurate statements made by Cohen on his April 13, 2009 episode of World Soccer Daily were […]

So, 5 years after relegation, the famous Black and Gold strip of Wolverhampton Wanderers has made a belated return to the Premiership after Saturdays tense 1-0 win over Queens Park Rangers at Molineux. It's an impressive return from a complete turn around from the side relegated from the Premiership under Dave Jones back in 2003-2004 […]

Well interesting news has appeared this morning as Bolton chairman, Phil Gartside's has put forward a proposal to increase the Premiership to two leagues of 18 teams with 14 clubs from the Championship and Rangers and Celtic. The proposal is to be put before the Premier League at their meeting this Thursday and it raises some interesting points. Gartside […]

Steven Cohen, co-host of the World Soccer Daily radio show, has been at it again. While the rest of the world last week was paying tribute to the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough Tragedy, Cohen was complaining on his U.S. radio show that Liverpool fans failed to take responsibility for Hillsborough as well as claiming […]

It's quite rare to find myself defending Rafa Benitez in any respect, but I think the recent comments by Sam Allardyce are more than ridiculous. After Liverpool's 4-0 romp of his team, the Blackburn manager claims Benitez showed a "lack of respect" for failing to meet for the traditional post-game drink. In addition, he claims: […]

So Chelsea have one foot in the semi-finals of the Champions League after the marvellous 3-1 win at Anfield last week and Saturdays 4-3 win against Bolton was probably the kick up the backside the Blues needed. It's easy to fall for the fallacy that Liverpool can't overturn the deficit that they've given themselves from […]

Torres was visibly irritated when subbed off in the 74th minute with the scoreline still two-nil. He wanted his hat trick against Blackburn, but Rafa Benitez's message was clear: save it for Chelsea. As Liverpool visit Stamford Bridge needing to score at least three goals to survive in the Champions League (0-3 would mean a […]

David Moyes has spent over a decade managing clubs in English football, hitting his peak over the last couple of seasons after some strange yo-yo performances by the Merseyside club in prior years. He has earned a spot in the Champions League and secured UEFA Cup play twice, likely a third time straight this year […]
