Tom and George's excellent adventure may come to an end, according to The Observer, as Liverpool owners Hicks and Gillett have not been able to transfer their 350m GBP of debt onto the club. Should they not meet a Feburary deadline, the duo would likely accept a 500m GBP bid for the club by Dubai […]

The transfer window activity had been quite up to this point and the sacking of Sam Allardyce had been the big story. However, with the Anelka move to Chelsea that should kick off some action. Liverpool midfielder Mohamed Sissoko has revealed he is close to securing a move to Italian giants Juventus. The Malian has […]

After the topsy-turvy results from the weekend, there are 12 replays to be had before we know the exact picture of the next round. The club I have been following, League Two stugglers Bury, is involved in one such replay against Norwich City, currently 20th in the Championship. Should Bury win, a match against Southampton […]

After Saturday's shocks, more David-v-Goliath matchups were on tap for Sunday. We start with Luton Town, who ignored the fact that they are 60 league places below Liverpool and forced a very deserved replay at Anfield. This was one of the games I checked out on Sunday and I felt it was an entertaining 1-1 […]

The FA Cup Third Round relieved us from the dreariness of our normal robust Premier League schedule to enthrall us with live riveting matches like Pompey-Ipswich and grant us the opportunity to pay top dollar to watch Villa-Utd. All 20 Premier League clubs participated at the weekend and here are their performances ranked in order. […]

"There's only one Titus Bramble" chanted the Wigan faithful, and he made the difference, earning a point in their 1-1 draw with Liverpool. Torres scored the initial goal, which salvaged Liverpool a point, but they have to be extremely disappointed with yet another poor result at "fortress" Anfield, winning only four of ten. Any persistent […]

Norman Hubbard of ESPN Soccernet has written an interesting article on who he thinks have been the worst players of the season so far. Personally, most of the article is spot on but there are a few choices that I don't agree with. Liverpool – Peter Crouch. Has Hubbard not seen Sissoko play this season? […]

Before I get started, a quick correction on yesterday's post – QPR's deals for Connolly and Ephraim are permanent moves and not just loan deals. I also neglected to mention a couple of "future star" signings that were made by Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool and Manchester United as well as deals done by Tottenham and Bolton. […]

Best Player: Cristiano Ronaldo, Manchester United It's difficult to argue with this one. Even if he does score a number of goals on penalties, he still produces a striker's tally from midfield and, unlike Frank Lampard, he manages to look skillful while doing it. The scariest thing is that he is only going to get […]

Destiny entwined Two hundred thousand a week Major malfunction Liverpool beat Derby 2-1 on a late winner by Steven Gerrard. It was another unfortunate result for Derby who should have earned at least a draw for dominating Liverpool in the second half. The Reds were once again plagued by their inconsistency, with only the individual […]

Robbie Keane bitches He whines he wanks he whinges Bottles when it counts Arsenal squeaked out a 2-1 win over Tottenham in the North London Derby. They were not very convincing, but, unlike last season, it was an unconvincing win. The match began rather creepily with a friendly handshake between Ramos and Wenger. Gunners fans […]
