Tony Cascarino article on use of Video Replay from the London Times

Pro Soccer Weekly 22 September @ 10:18 PM EST
Here's an interesting article that Tony Cascarino has written on the use of video replay in soccer. Tony makes some interesting points, but I disagree with the basic idea. Video replay can help to get certain calls right, and makes more sense in American sports where there are a lot of built in breaks in the game. Click to continue reading...

Walcott better for England then Arsenal?

Pro Soccer Weekly 13 September @ 10:45 AM EST
That is the question that Tony Cascarino poses in his latest blog post in the London Times and the simple answer to that question for me is no and the reason why is Thierry Henry. There is not reason why Theo can't become a more refined player over time just like Henry did, Ashley Young, Gabriel Agbonlahor, etc. Click to continue reading...

Fortunately for Klose he missed. Click to continue reading...

Is Roy Keane playing with fire at Sunderland?

Pro Soccer Weekly 22 August @ 10:49 PM EST
Another great article from former Republic of Ireland forward Tony Cascarino, where Tony questions the recent signings that Keane has made including Pascal Chimbonda, El Hadji Diouf, and Djibril Cisse. I disagree with Tony on his views though as I think Roy is doing the best he can within his resources to bring in players that can help make Sunderland a respectable team within the Premier League and keep them out of a relegation battle.

Pro Soccer Weekly 14 August @ 10:44 PM EST
Here's a really good article from the London Times written by former Republic of Ireland forward Tony Cascarino.
