So, the transfer deadline (August 31) has passed and the football market is now closed. Closed? Not
quite. Indeed, while transfers from one club to another will have to wait until January to resume,
teams may still sign players as free agents (and that until March 31, 2009). So, inspired from this
Top 11 Serie A [.
In preparation for every game, Arsene Wenger gives his players a motivational handout that helps to
focus his team on the task ahead. A copy of the handout was found in a Bolton hotel for this past
weekend's 3-1 win by Arsenal at the Reebok Stadium. Here's a transcript of what the handout said:
Confidential Team meeting [.
The Premiership woke up this morning to a lot of excitement. Everton fans were celebrating breaking
their transfer record, West Ham fans were incredulous that they had sold half their defence without
replacing them, Liverpool fans were "overjoyed" at signing two foreign 18 year olds to
add to their increasing collection of foreign 18 year olds, [.
Arsenal moved smoothly to the top of the Premier League and Right Result table with an impressive
win at Bolton Wanderers. All did not go according to script at their former bogey ground though...
Emmanuel Eboue netted his first league goal for the Gunners but the Ivorian's equaliser should have
been ruled out for offside.
Discussing deliberate fouls on fellow professionals has become a bit taboo since Roy Keane's
admission about his pre-meditated knee-high tackle on Alf-Inge Haaland, but Bolton's Kevin Nolan
has broken the silence to say that he urged team-mate Jlloyd Samuel to foul Theo Walcott during
their match against Arsenal on Saturday.
Saturday Arsenal v Hull City, 17:30 Can Hull's excellent run keep going. Against Arsenal? Away? No,
it can't. Prediction: 2-1 to Arsenal. Not an easy win for the Gunners, but a win nonetheless. Bonus
Prediction: DNA tests confirm Hull's 39 year old striker Dean Windass as the father of Jack
Wilshere, Carlos Vela and Kieran Gibbs.
No man is an island, with the possible exception of Frank Lampard. We all crave companionship, but
I crossed the line in my pursuit of Helen Chamberlain. I sneaked in to the Soccer AM studios and
took a few unauthorised photos to publish on my website. I've now been charged with intent to
distribute [.
We've got it straight from the biscuit tin - the shortlist of managers West Ham's owners are
considering and the man who is odds-on favourite to manage the Hammers, at least in September 2008.
But first, the candidates: West Ham's Final Five 1. Roberto Mancini: Popular choice amongst the
fans, can't speak English (or Icelandic for that matter) [.

Come on down! These days everyone wants to be taken over by a billionaire and then immediately get
linked with players worth more than the entire debt of Africa. But how? Ker-Ching! It's easy! The
Premier League title awaits, all you have to do is pick out a billionaire, flutter your eyelashes
and as sure as [.
Ebi Smolarek can't find his form from Euro 2008 qualifiers. He posed no threat whatsoever in his
debut game for Bolton Wanderers. The Premiership, at least in the first match, proved too fast and
competetive for him. The other Polish highlight of the weekend was Tomasz Kuszczak's involvement in
Super Sunday game against Chelsea.
This week should prove to be another great derby week, with inter-city rivalry matches taking place
in Milan, Liverpool and Barcelona, among others. The only match between two current WCR Top 25
Clubs takes place on Sunday afternoon, where AC Milan and Inter Milan will battle for dominance of
the city.
Gerry takes a break from his weekly drudgery of crime-fighting and orphan-rescuing to give you the
latest on English football and your best bet for the weekend. In many ways I'm like a dwarf - I
find it hard to put my hand in my pocket. I never waste money on a newspaper and only [...]
I think I'm getting better at this predicting business. Last week's attempts at clairvoyance
actually yielded two correct scores (Man City 1-3 Chelsea and Portsmouth 2-1 Middlesbrough). But I
also predicted that Liverpool vs Man Utd would be goalless only for Carlos Tevez to make a liar out
of me within three minutes.
It's Adelaide United' chance to make history..tonight.
Finals football in September, and midweek to boot. Great news. So put away your Hawks and Geelong
scarves until the weekend, it's time to support the mighty Aussies, the mighty Reds.
And looking good for a sell-out withover 12,000 tickets pre-sold.
Manchester United v Bolton Wanderers; Old Trafford, Saturday 27th September,
1500.
VdS returns against Bolton after a shaky start to the season with Kuszcak ruled out with a groin
injury. There was always a chance United would name rookie keeper Ben Amos in the starting line up
but it was felt that thinking man's neanderthal, Kevin Davies, and the aerial bombardment he will
undoubtedly receive, would be too much of a fiery baptism.
First off, I welcome everyone to join us in the EPL Talk Chat this weekend. Starting Saturday from
7:20 am and Sunday from 8:20 am. Now onto the predictions. All times are Eastern and TV Schedules
are subject to change without notice. Everton v Liverpool (Saturday 7:45 am, Live on Setanta Sports
from 7:30 am.
Few noticed last week when Juande Ramos called for a shortening of the transfer window, but the
nuclear fallout from Monday's race to the finish seems to support his argument. Prior to Monday,
Robinho had been settling in nicely at for another season at Real Madrid, Kevin Keegan was sorting
out his first proper [.
With one month of Premiership action out of the way, Premiership Talk reviews all twenty teams and
grades them based on their early season performances. Arsenal The title hopefuls from London have
had an indifferent start to the season. An opening day narrow victory against West Bromwich Albion
didn't convince too many fans, and that performance was [.
After a long break, we're back with the serious business tomorrow. Bolton Wanderers visit, a
team that, under current circumstances, we would hope to beat. Andy Johnson should
start, Bolton aren't what they were, and we've just beaten Arsenal. So fair
grounds for optimism, I think. But what are Bolton these days?
Before I begin writing my predictions for this weekend, I would invite everyone into the EPL Talk
Chat this weekend. Staring from 7:30 am Eastern/12:30 pm UK on Saturday and from 8:20 am
Easter/1:20 pm UK on Sunday, join myself and many others as we discuss all the action from the
Barclays Premier League.
Adelaide taking their city to Asia, and I ain't talking about the Crows!
Anyone who saw Urawa Reds or Gamba Osaka take on Sydney and Melbourne in previous Asian Champions
League encounters will have expected the cashed up Japanese club Kashima Antlers to give Adelaide a
good thumping in the home game of the Asian Champions League Quarter Finals.
Arsenal left-back Gael Clichy has NOT broken his leg during this evening's Premier League win over
Bolton Wanderers after the official website confirmed that the Frenchman only suffered "shin
bruising". The 22-year-old had be taken to hospital following a challenge from Trotters
striker Kevin Davies, who was booked for the tackle, and Cesc Fabregas claimed after [.
Stelios Giannakopoulos has had an awful offseason, which has seen the 34-year-old be released from
Premier League club Bolton Wanderers and dropped from the Greek National Team. After a summer of
speculation regarding Giannakopoulos' next stop, a long lasting rumor has returned to the spotlight
as media reports link Giannakopoulos
Ronaldo's goal came first.He showed his famous instability and lack of balance in the penalty
area by falling over after a fair tackle from Jlloyd Samuel.A dubious penalty call from Styles
followed.The second as far as I know is the first goal that Rooney has scored this season since he
tied the knot - so he's probably out celebrating the ocassion with the missus right now.
Newcastle United Reserves were beaten 3-0 tonight, as Bolton Wanderers put three past Dutch
goalkeeper Tim Krul on his return to competitive action for the Tyneside club. Tim Krul - beaten
three times tonight Newcastle started well and throughout the game the front two forwards of Nile
Ranger and Frank Wiafe Danquah both looked dangerous, but some [.
Good Morning Insiders, and tomorrow see The Arsenal travel again for this third away fixture to the
North West to face their old bogie team Bolton Wanderers. Saturday's game sees Gary Megson's side
struggling for consistency having lost the services of players Matthew Taylor through injury and
Gary Cahill with the [.
Arsenal have today beaten Bolton Wanderers 3-1 to move to the top of the Premier League table. The
home side took a surprise lead after just 15 minutes at the Reebok when Kevin Davies headed in a
Joey O'Brien corner.
But the lead didn't last long. After some intense pressure from the Gunners, Emmanuel Eboue scored
his first goal for the club getting onto the end of a Nicklas Bendtner ball through, although
replays suggested he may of been offside.
Tacitus: "Crime, once exposed, has no refuge but audacity."
Audacious.
That's the word for it.
Over the last week, English football provided us with numerous examples of the different types of
corruption that are destroying the game for the benefit of powerful insiders and the gambling
industry.

So perhaps for the sake of your enjoyment, dear reader, Soccer Source should predict humdrum
fixtures each week.
It'd be a huge shock if Man Utd, Chelsea and/or Arsenal did anything but win with
ease
Yeah, right.
To give you an idea of the enormity of this result, it'd be as if the Detroit Lions went into
Dallas and pounded on the Cowboys.
Arsenal started the day in top spot and were expected to crush Hull City at The Emirates. Football
though has a habit of bringing you back to Earth, the visitors doing so by winning 2 - 1. It did
not seem that it would be the case when Cesc Fabregas forced McShane to put through [...]
As in the first two weekends of the Premier League season, there's another two incidents that have
come under the spotlight of the Right Result. West Ham United and Blackburn Rovers had featured in
the first fortnight's judgments and their meeting at Upton Park alerted the RR panel. Especially to
the frustration of Rovers manager Paul Ince, [.
Looking at the Premier League table, you might be forgiven for assuming that Bolton Wanderers have
got off to a decent start this season. Indeed, if they hadn't missed from the penalty spot at St
James' Park ten days ago, they could have seven points to show from their first ...

have been largely disappointing, so lets hope they put on a good show.
