Real Salt Lake may have had a middling season. They may have sneaked into the playoffs on the last day of the campaign. They may have a team of names that would never go on the MLS marquee. None of that matters very much right now. Real Salt Lake are deserved winners of the MLS […]

Okay, admit it. Even though you thoroughly enjoy watching the Premier League, especially your favorite team each week, there are often times when you're not too bothered about missing a match on television featuring teams that either don't excite you or that you're not interested in. But which team in particular do you dread watching […]

Thank god the Premier League is back. Nothing against international football, but there's something very comforting with getting back into the ritual of watching Premier League football and being familiar with the surroundings, the pace of the game and the excitement it creates. So the Liverpool against Manchester City game on early Saturday was the […]

When football pundits discuss Carlos Tevez, they often talk about his "work rate" and his "eye for the ball." At times, though, the words "work rate" can morph into a backhanded compliment — as if those pundits are really saying, "He's rubbish as a goal scorer, but boy, he sure works hard, doesn't he?"

I thought I should jump in on this issue while the water is still warm and explain an Irish view of Wednesday's larceny. In Ireland we do not do football dramas in small measures, Roy Keane's walkout at the 2002 World Cup practically sparked a civil war and now the 'Hand of Henry' has turned […]

Since Thierry Henry’s handball on Wednesday, the former Arsenal striker’s reaction has gone from arrogance, to indifference to being contrite. From where I sit, this simply proves that Henry is a Public Relations driven phony. He’s cultivated an image for over a decade in conjunction with his handlers and now sees the possibility it can […]
