Weekly Picks - 11/21/2008

2008-11-21T21:00:42+00:00

My picks have been a bit off recently, and that's putting a generous light on the situation. So, it seems obvious that the only way to avoid being generically wrong is to be specifically correct. Therefore, not only am I going to predict the scorelines for this week, I will even give you, my dear readers, a Nostradamus-esque view into specific moments from the coming weekend.

Premiership Predictions Week 14: Arsenal and Spurs to Bounce Back

2008-11-21T11:00:29+00:00

Saturday, 22 November 2008 Chelsea v Newcastle, 15:00 Newcastle have no away wins this season, and won't be getting their first at Stamford Bridge. Especially with Joey Barton out for two months with bad karma knee ligaments. Nicolas Anelka (eight goals in his last four games) could face Newcastle on his own here and probably get a [.

2008-11-18T20:22:27+00:00

Today's transfer rumors feature a potential surprise, a rumor, and a little humor for Arsenal fans.

Premiership Predictions Week 13: First Defeat for Redknapp

2008-11-14T16:00:56+00:00

Saturday, 15 November 2008 Bolton v Liverpool, 12:45 Steven Gerrard's right foot vs Jussi Jaaskelainen's incredible octopus impression. Quite a contest, but Bolton's two match winning streak ends here. And Rafa Benitez will insist on using the word "jes" in his post-match interview. Odds: Bolton 5-1, Draw 13-5, Liverpool 8-13 Prediction: 0-1 Arsenal v Aston Villa, 15:00 John Carew has a [.

2008-11-12T14:16:34+00:00

With money and success comes recognition and fame, and no one has found this to be more true than today's football superstars. Axel Witsel, a young pup playing from Standard Liege, is now known around the world just by virtue of being linked with a handful of Premier League clubs (including Manchester United and Arsenal).

appetite for destruction

2008-11-12T14:06:03+00:00

If West ham aren't careful they will be tip-toeing their way to the Championship. Maybe Curbs saw the looming credit crunch coming that has knocked the Hammers for six, and did a runner. We should have seen it coming. The squad was "trimmed" in the close season in an attempt to cut costs. West [...

Saturday, 8 November 2008 Arsenal v Man Utd, 12:45 With Walcott, Gallas, Sagna, Adebayor and Eboue all doubtful and Robin van Persie injured, we could be seeing Arsenal's Carling Cup team at the Emirates. That might work against Sheffield United, but it won't work against Manchester United. Odds: (win/draw/win) Gunners 2-1, Draw 9-4, Man Utd 11-8 Prediction: 2-0 to [.

2008-11-07T14:16:21+00:00

Today's top headlines: Maradona's new style of management - not a man for ceremony, Diego. Will Rafa See Stanley Park? I hope so, although with Liverpool's funding issues the stadium could be delayed for several years. Manchester United players go Jedi with new sleep tricks - and shame on the Sun for their lame gaffes.

Middlesbrough 1-1 West Ham - Video Highlights

2008-11-03T08:30:03+00:00

Middlesbrough and West Ham failed to do much at Riverside, with a late Mido strike canceling out the early Mullins goal. Draws are not what they need, both teams need to improve if they want to be in the top 10 come May 2009. "Middlesbrough 1-1 West Ham - Video Highlights" was originally published at Soccerlens.

2008-11-01T08:00:13+00:00

Ten games in and people are saying things they may regret. Fabregas taunted Spurs with women's football jibes, Lampard questions Liverpool's staying power and Alex Ferguson tips Villa to break the big 4. If you thought the snow was early, the mind games seem to get earlier and earlier each year.

2008-10-31T11:00:56+00:00

Saturday, 1 November 2008 Everton v Fulham, 12:45 Looks like an Everton win, until you realize the Toffees have only picked up two home points this season. And Andy Johnson (finally) found his shooting boots on Wednesday, so maybe he'll do a Bentley against his old employers. He's 250-1 for a hat-trick.

United v West Ham Review

2008-10-29T22:48:31+00:00

Cristiano Ronaldos two first-half goals were enough to down Zola's West Ham, dropping them to the bottom half of the English Premier League table.

2008-10-29T17:09:53+00:00

United has been great at home recently, scoring plenty of goals. 12 in the last 5 home game matches while only conceding 1.

Premiership Predictions: Week 10

2008-10-29T02:00:22+00:00

Wednesday, 29 October 2008 Arsenal v Tottenham, 20:00 This has to be one of the most interesting north London derbies for a long while. Arsenal clearly have the better team of footballers (well, they do) but Spurs have the Redknapp bounce (or the Judas bounce, depending on who you ask). The former might outweigh the latter.

West Ham 0-2 Arsenal

2008-10-28T23:12:15+00:00

No dramas on the road this past weekend, although it wasn't easy. Trip to West Ham can be nervy at times, and that was the case this time around.

The start was pretty sloppy - the midfield couldn't hold onto the ball very well, and West Ham enjoyed a significant portion of the possession, leading to a few chances for the Hammers.

Horrah For That Man!

2008-10-27T22:21:00+00:00

According to Third Sector, the charity newsletter, Rob Green the Westham goalkeeper is a runner-up Celebrity Charity Champion.

He spent his summer holiday this year raising more than 30k for the African Medical Research Foundation by climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.

The other strength of his contribution is the way he has used his celebrity status to attract publicity for the project, as well as linking football-playing street kids into the charity by providing a great role model.
