As the popularity of Twitter skyrockets, more football supporters are signing up to stay updated on the latest football news. Trouble is how to know which people to follow on Twitter. To help, I've compiled a list of the top 10 English football bloggers you should follow on Twitter. I ruled out the Twitterers whose […]

Liverpool's third jersey for the 2009-2010 season has been revealed, and it's going to be white with red trim according to a leaked photograph (see above). Liverpool and Adidas have finally got their designs right for this season compared to last season's horrid green third jersey and the uninspiring gray away shirt. Liverpool's new third […]

Dual citizenship, discussions about players being raised in one country, then playing for another have been running rampant the last several days. Some like the new FIFA rule change, some don't. For some the thought of Guiseppe Rossi playing for Italy after being born in the States, causes their blood to boil. Some take it […]

Now I'm certainly not going to start defending Chelsea's players or the reactions of certain fans after the final whistle back on May 6th. Yes, the referee had a nightmare, yes Chelsea should have had two penalties at least and yes to some people it was easy to understand the reactions of some of the […]

The Guardian today has a very interesting article regarding Manchester United's owners changing the clubs transfer policy to concentrate on signing players under 26. It seems that the Glazer family want the club to only sign players that they can recoup transfer fees on later in their careers. Now maybe it's me, but I've yet […]

Two week ago I authored an article about the evolution of US tactics since Steve Sampson's days. Since that article, Bob Bradley has switched his tactical setup for two consecutive matches while continuing his incredibly consistent and predictable squad selection. Bradley went from the empty bucket 4-4-2 against Honduras to a 4-5-1 with essentially three […]

With the sale of Cristiano Ronaldo adding £80 million to Sir Alex Ferguson’s usual £25-30 million yearly budget. A summer spending spree is surely on the cards. Looking at the side, it would appear to me a winger and some quality in centre midfield are needed, with possibly, a striker as the icing on the […]

Episode 89 features three reports. First off we talk with Miami FC President Aaron Davidson about the state of the team and the potential of defender Facundo Erpen being sold to a club in Europe or Latin America. Next up Brian Zygo catches up with several Dyanmo players after their 3-1 victory over FC Dallas […]

The buzz coming through the ever-dubious transfer wires claims that Liverpool are close to signing Glen Johnson from Portsmouth. Rumors are homing in on a £17m move which includes the £7m Pompey still owe the Reds for Peter Crouch. Johnson is a fine player, full of skill, energy and guile, and his addition to the […]

The fixtures for the 2009-2010 season have been released, and Sir Alex Ferguson should be happy. The fixture computer must have applied a "Fergie Filter" to reduce the wrath of Sir Alex Ferguson fuming about how the fixtures are in favour of other teams except his own. This season, they seem to have it about […]

Kaka’s transfer may have raised a few eyebrows in Italian football about the ability to keep the world class players in the league. Inter Milan are also reportedly locked in a battle to keep a hold of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and there has been plenty of speculation in the media to suggest perhaps the Serie A […]

In a tribute to the Clint Eastwood movie, "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly," EPL Talk has categorized the new shirts for the 2009-2010 season into three categories. It wasn't easy. Many of the ones that we would have placed in a mediocre category, if it was available, had to go into "The Good" […]

We will be releasing episode 89 of the MLS Talk Podcast tomorrow with MLS, USL and Open Cup news. Look for it early tomorrow afternoon. I will be at Tropical Park Stadium tonight for the Open Cup game between Miami FC and last year's runner up Charleston. You can look for my tweets on the […]

The DC United goalkeeping situation is something which has been in flux for quite some time. Ever since the departure of 2006 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year, Troy Perkins, the club has been searching for an answer between the pipes. After the 2007 season, Perkins decided to test his mettle in European soccer, signing with […]

RheinEnergieStadion I used the stats feature at ESPN Soccernet to calcluate the clubs with the best attendances. Out of the top 20 attendances in Europe, Germany had 9 clubs. This post is to equip you with a tool to help promote our great league. Because, while we are in a slump in the Champions League […]
