It may not have been a man of the match-calibre performance, as those honours would have to have
gone to one of the defenders—and probably either Glen Johnson or Martin Skrtel. And he likely
didn't even have as good a game as his previous two against Wolverhampton and Manchester United.
Regardless of that, however, after nearly a full calendar year filled almost entirely by futility
as he struggled first with fitness and then with fitting in, it's understandable that on the back
of three strong showings on the bounce people would be eager to look for any upside they can find
in the 2012 edition of Andy Carroll.
FC Barcelona vs. Brazil in 1999 - The Full Match
The beginning of the week is never enjoyable, but let's lessen the dosage of suffering with a
glorious find on Youtube. 1999 was FC Barcelona's centenary year and the whole season was quite
the celebration of everything FC Barcelona.

We'll have a few more bits and bobs from last night's second-leg El Clasico shenanigans over the
course of the morning, but for now you'll have to make do with this Dani Alves' angled, first-time,
top-corner screamer to put Barca two goals up on the night and three up on aggregate.

Dancing Dani Barcelona wing-back Dani Alves seemed to signal the end of Real Madrid's Copa Del Rey
challenge with this unbelievable goal on the stroke of half-time during last night's quarter-final
second leg. It wasn't quite so clean cut in the end. Despite this wonder goal giving Barca a 4-1
aggregate lead, Real fought back [.
This just in: The U.S. WNT spends lots of time in airports. Here the squad waits for its flight
to Canada.Easy travel day for the U.S. WNT today. Relatively short flight from LA (not sure how long, but
it's whatever is the length of
Moneyball+ a short nap. Also, the WNT Blog maintains that
Brad Pitt is underrated as an actor), into the same time zone and they players had time to get a
weight workout in the morning and get into Vancouver in time for dinner in the evening.
I've written some poems about the Premiership action this weekend. Starting with Chelsea, ending
with Swansea... Celebration: A thunderous volley rattles the bar falling to a favorible shin. A

Everything about Samir Nasri's look here screams: "TA
BOUCHE! I'm worth £4million more than

even Liverpool's Jordan Henderson must've shrugged it off in their slim 1-0 victory over Man City
last night.

On a blustery night at Goodison Park, it was Everton's American doing the most for their club.
Landon Donovan got the start on his return to the club on loan. Everton took the lead in the 63rd
minute when Tim Howard scored from a goal kick (the fourth in Premier League history) that seemed
to accelerate after it took a bounce into the Bolton area.
JT has spoken about about stories of a dressing room revolt, backing the manager, celebrating the
goals yesterday and of the hard line that AVB has installed at the club today.

celebration at the end of it.

Sometimes EPL matches are worth watching for the randomness that occurs in the stands, such as
in yesterday's match between Sunderland and Queen Park Rangers in which, if you watched closely,
you would see a Sunderland fan celebrating Nicklas Bendtner's goal by standing and hugging/jumping
with his dog.
He won't mind seeing a fit Wilshere
Let's start with the obvious shall we. The Champions League draw takes precedent and rightly so.
The biggest tournament in club football today and the 2nd round draw took place without any
Manchester clubs in it. For our efforts of finishing top of our group, we were rewarded with a date
against AC Milan.
The celebration of Arsenal's 125th anniversary recently has led to the erection of three Arsenal
legends namely Thierry Henry, Tony Adams and Herbert Chapman. Many questioned Henry's credentials
to have a statue outside the Emirates. This is because Henry left the club in 2007 due to declining
form and the desire to wanting to win [.
With statues of Tony Adams, Thierry Henry and Herbert Chapman erected recently in celebration for
Arsenal's 125th anniversary, a lot of attention was turned to Arsenal's current flying Dutchman.
Many questioned Van Persie's credentials to be an Arsenal great in years to come. Van Persie has
been at the club since 2005.
Paying lip service to RVP Arsenal keeper and all-round character Wojciech Szczesny celebrated the
Gunners' 1-0 win over Everton an Saturday by getting intimate with Robin Van Persie's foot. The

On Wednesday night, Liverpool fans across the globe united in celebration after experiencing one of
life's legitimately sublime pleasures: the elimination of Man United from the Champions League.
Anfield legend Alan Hansen goes out of his way to remain objective when commentating on football
issues, but his scathing comments about United's 'catastrophic' capitulation reveal a pleasing, and
It has been a near foregone conclusion ever since he was first loaned out several months ago,
but Miguel Montano officially signed with the Montreal Impact on Wednesday. The Seattle Sounders
did not receive compensation for Montano, but GM Adrian Hanauer noted that his loan last year gave
the team the flexibility to sign Sammy Ochoa.
Pato's girlfriend, whom we affectionately love to call 'Babs' for purely shortcut purposes, was in
Miami last week to attend Emporio Armani's celebration of Art Basel's 10th anniversary. Thanks to a
few paps who we actually don't mind receiving e-mails from, we know that Ms B and the Voronins
weren't the only ones occupying the sunshine state recently; Samuel Eto'o & fam spent some time
letting their hair down (Georgette let her top down) whilst on vacay in Miami Beach.
By Clemente Lisi - LOS ANGELES, CA (Dec 5, 2011) US Soccer Players -- The stench of beer filled the
air in the Los Angeles Galaxy's locker room after the players had spent a good chunk of its MLS Cup

Depot Center and partied the night away at the Staples Center in downtown LA.

1. So we're barely in December and we've already won as many games away as we had done all of
last season. Whilst the scoreline meant we had a nervy ending to the game, it was a convincing
performance that was worthy of victory. Whilst I don't think dominating a team in the top half away
from home is anything to be sniffed at, it is frustrating to see us struggle to put games to
bed.
What Andy Carroll needs to do to become a success at Liverpool
Amid the wider celebration of Liverpool's return to the football top table over the past few
weeks, a couple of significant developments have gone largely unnoticed. As a team, as a unit,
Kenny Dalglish has got his side not only competing against the top teams, but playing decent
football in the process, which is a cause for that justified celebration.

Celebrating a disallowed goal is always a bit embarrassing, but Napoli star Marek Hamsik can rarely
have been left more red-faced than after this bizarre sequence of events during last night's match
with Juventus. Hamsik stepped up to take a spot-kick for his side after Andrea Pirlo had tripped
Ezequiel Lavezzi in the box.

Don't know if you heard, but Kevin-Prince Boateng scored a bit of a belter at the San Siro last
night, exploding past Eric Abidal with a couple of brilliant touches before cracking a shot past
Victor Valdes at his near post.
His celebration wasn't particularly shabby either.
