First Official Post

Well I never thought I’d start my blog on back to back Manchester United losses in an already tight title race but heck at least they still top of the English Premier League (ONLY JUST).
An absolute shocker of a performance by, a granted depleated, Manchester United defense and a as staunch Manchester United supporer it is hard to take. Plaudits to Luis Suarez and that fantastic dutchman Dirk Kuyt for taking full advantage of United’s weakness. Thats infact what we’ve come to expect from Kuyt in a liverpool shirt but Ive just got to mention Suarez performance, particularily his run in the 18 yard area for Kuyt’s 1st, his energy and his vision must leave Liverpool supporters licking there lips for the next season especially as he and Andy look a match made in heaven. Well done to Liverpool  as only three teams defeated the would-be champions this term and as for a fourth place finish well they’d need 9 more performances like yesterday and results to go their way, good luck to them.

Back to the title race United have 9 and Arsenal have 10 to play and I think the title could well rest on Arsenal & United’s remaining  away games : United have four of which are  West Ham, Newcastle, Arsenal & Blackburn on the penultimate weekend of the season, Sir Alex Ferguson will be quietly comfortable in getting 6 points from the first two and be satisfied with a point each at the Emirates and Ewood park. Arsenal have six of which are Westbrom, Blackpool, Tottenham, Bolton, Stoke City and Fulham, Arsene Wenger would do well to win three but I feel one loss and one draw and four wins would be enough to steal the title from Fergie and his latest fledgelings.

What happens if Manchester United win the Europa League & finish in the top four?

  Due to Champions League qualification clubs are now looking more favourably at the Europa League competition.  So Manchester United will naturally be gunning for glory as they take on Celta Vigo in their semi final.   If however, they win the tournament and finish the English Premier League in the top four, England will have just the four teams in Europe’s elite competition. What I find more interesting is if Manchester United win the Europa League and finish outside the top four! Should this scenario occur, England will have FIVE entrants to the Champions League, rather than four – with United joining the top four Premier League clubs.   There are a host of different scenarios as to who will be in Europe's second tier next season. For starters, the Premier League's fifth-placed club - should United not win the Europa League AND finish outside the top four - will go into the pot.   Then there's the EFL Cup - or League Cup - winners... however that tournament w

Liverpool's Klopp host Jose's United

WHAT THE MANAGERS SAY Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp : "Apart from the table, it's a very important game. I know about the history, I like the special stories. The whole world will watch this game, it's a big honour to be part of it. "At the end, it's up to us to perform to our best. You cannot and should not ignore the special circumstance of a game like this. You have to be ready. "They have big quality and we have to respect this, as we do. But this is Anfield. We have to show this. We have had a few nice atmospheres but I'm open for the best atmosphere. We need everybody in a Liverpool shirt in this game." Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho on concerns over disrespectful chanting at the game: "In football we have some football tragedies, if you can say that, which is a big match that you lost, the mistake that some player did, this kind of thing, and you can make fun of it in a positive way. "But the human tragedy i

The Premier League changes its logo.

The most lucrative football league in the world, The English Premier League (EPL), yesterday unveiled its new official logo, which will be used from the 2016-17 season onwards. The division's lion icon has been the face of England's top flight since its launch in 1992 but has undergone a makeover to give it a fresh, modern look. It means, EPL is ending its 12-year association with Barclays bank and will from now on be known simply as ‘the Premier League’. The new logo – has a crowned lion’s head gazing to the right, accompanied by either the words ‘Premier League’ or ‘PL’ -- will replace the current logo of a lion with its left paw on a football. All 20 clubs in the top flight have also agreed a new centralised sponsorship strategy, meaning the league will no longer have a named sponsor. “From next season we will move away from title sponsorship and the competition will be known as the Premier League, a decision which provided the opportunity to consider how we wanted
