The last fortnight has been a fascinating whirlwind of emotions for fans of FC Barcelona. From disappointment at losing to Chelsea in the first leg of the Champions League, to utter dismay at losing to Real Madrid and ultimately utter disbelief at not qualifying after the second league of the champions league against Chelsea.

When Luiz Suarez, the Liverpool and Uruguayan footballer was charged with racism, Liverpool reacted angrily. There were even shirt protests. However, according to the 115 page document by FA, as Guardian's Stuart James reports, Liverpool may not find any thing more to argue about. What I find disconcerting here is the manner in which teams [.

It is a pity what has happened with Wayne Rooney over the past few months. Rooney had a great 2009-10 English Premier League season for which he was the PFA Player of the year. He had a great start to the year as well for which he got the January FA Premier League player of [...]

So what was it about every one calling it South America's world cup? 5 of the eight teams in the quarters were South American. Holland-Brazil second half saw the tide turn. What a game it was. Brazil absolutely dominated in the first half and no one would have given Holland a chance. Then, Holland turned [.

I am really impressed with Spain. They didn't lose some 14 games coming into the world cup before they lost their opening game to Switzerland but I have liked what I have seen. Brazil, as I said, is a strong, strong team and it is showing exactly that. The only thing which worries me regarding [...]

I want Brazil to win as always and again, as always, I feel they have a very strong chance. The team which might win it though is Argentina. With Maradona at the helm, they play a very attacking brand of football. The defense is lacking but if you score more goals than the opponent, you [...]

Nasri had a great chance in the first half almost scoring. Ibrahimovic scored early in the second half with a fair bit of luck. Then Barcelona scored again! Barcelona dominated in the second half before a great chance for Nicklas Bendtner for Arsenal superbly saved by Valdes after which Arsenal came back strongly.

We have seen violence in Brazil, the football riot death in Italy, racism in Spain and match fixing scandals in Italy and even smaller football nations like Poland – not items any one would want associated with a beautiful game. Such issues are nothing

A lot of people have been shocked at the price tag, particularly as it is felt that Beckham is not worth the money where worth on the field is concerned. LA Galaxy certainly feels differently and Beckham and LA Galaxy feel it is going to be beneficial mo

Real have had two manager changes in two years. After stumbling form, Capello is facing the pressure. While Real started off the season quite promisingly, it has all fallen in the past few games. What ails Real? It is simple to point out attitude, lack o
