A bit before the Chelsea vs Man Utd match

Soccerblog @ 08:56 AM EST

Drogbalicious.

He takes over everybody
Sinewy hard, on a goal scoring spree

He gallops on the field, on a tear

He is on his way to critical mass
A nuclear weapon laid bare

And underneath his shorts
He turns on twin burners in his arse

He makes Rio look flabby

Silvestre now that was one bemused chappie,

Chelsea are losing, Ancelotti wears a frown

Jose looks a bit Sourinho

Drogba scores two, turns it upside down

We have seen it before, in the FA, CL, and the Prem

I hate to have to say it but Drogba is a s**tstain

(all players except those from Chelsea)
Drogba makes us look like muppets

(one player)
I'd like to say worse:
He gives me gas

(all fans except those from Chelsea weep)

(all fans except those from Chelsea)
He makes us sick to the stomach that Drogba
He gives us gas and it's not the beer we chug
He makes us look like muppets that Drogba

(Sung to "How do you solve a problem like Maria" from the Sound of Music)

Video: A gladiator sport

Soccerblog @ 08:32 AM EST

Some WWF and some WTF moments in the BYU vs New Mexico match. These girls could whip Vinny Jones anytime. And Julie Foudy had to spin the indefensible. "Ponytail whiplash" like "tennis elbow " could become a recognizable sports injury.

Video: The last time Atletico won at the Bernabeu

Soccerblog @ 07:35 AM EST

Atletico have not won at the Bernabeu in 10 years. The last time October 30th, 1999 when Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink with his brace and Jose Mari won a now historic victory. Sergio Aguero was 11 years old.

Hasselbaink was virtually unstoppable and so was Joan Capdevila, now at Villareal.

An open letter to Arsene

Soccerblog @ 09:05 PM EST

Dear Arsene,

Praise is good but it should be meaningful. Robin Van Persie is having a fantastic season but to say he is the best striker in the Premiership is jumping the gun. Didier Drogba will have some words on that. Comparing Van Persie to Dennis Bergkamp is definitely jumping the shark.

Last days for Rio?

Soccerblog @ 09:06 AM EST

Injury problems. Shoddy defending. Indifferent form. His burgeoning interests off field. Rio Ferdinand's season has been on the wane.

It was on display against Ukraine and since then it has gotten worse. A struggling Rio futilely pulling on Fernando Torres jersey in the Liverpool match as the Spanish striker blasts the ball past Van Der Saar.

Video: RSL shock Crew, 3-2

Soccerblog @ 08:30 AM EST

RSL was down on the strength of two Schelotto goals by the 35th minute and it appeared as if Crew would be able to get over the one goal disadvantage and advance to the quarter finals. But RSL struck back from a Javier Morales goal two minutes later. Ten minutes later, RSL were awarded a penalty by referee Baldemero Toledo, a dubious call on Frankie Hejduk as Espindola went down a bit too easily.

Soccerblog @ 11:46 PM EST

I weep for the Newcastle fans who have to put up with this execrable name. How about MikeAshleydumbass@StJames'Park while we are at it?

I remember living in Miami when they renamed Joe Robbie stadium, home of Miami Dolphins as Pro Player Stadium which I thought was soulless but inoffensive.

Poppycock! Or Poppygate!

The British Empire fought for this!

The Daily Mail goes patriotic after Jan Moir's homophobic innuendo and their divers perp walk. But it seems a bit fascist in its endeavour. After all, the very people they want to honour fought that scourge in World War II. And yes, it is also true that the British Empire was not welcome in many countries.

Klinsi vindication: Van Gaal feels the pressure

Soccerblog @ 10:39 PM EST


" Mmmmmmm. Where is my Rolodex? "

With Franck Ribery out, Bayern has been struggling without his creativity. They lost to Bordeaux, 0-2 in the CL and are almost out of contention to make the round of sixteen.

In the Bundesliga, Bayern are in sixth place with 19 points after five wins, four draws, and two losses.

End of the exodus to the Liga?

Soccerblog @ 10:34 PM EST

The Zapatero government is proposing a tax rate hike from 24% to 43% for overseas players who earn more than 600,000 euros ($884,600) a year. Spain is reeling from the recession with 20% unemployment.

This will effectively end the "Beckham Law", named when the tax rates were amended in 2002 for the English midfielder to make it attractive for him and and other highly sought talent to come to the Liga.
