This weekend kicks off with a mid-table cracker that has media ass-whooping stamped all over it...
cause you just know that, regardless of the outcome, both managers and every player on the pitch
will come under intense scruitiny. Over recent weeks, City have fine tuned their skills of drawing
matches .

Thierry Henry is the villain of the soccer world today. He will be for a while.
In one of the shadiest moves on the big stage in recent memory, the French legend (after being
offside) intentionally handled the ball in setting up the game-winning goal to send his country to
the World Cup, and unfairly end Ireland's dreams.

Now that we know the teams that will be making it to South Africa for the World Cup finals, i
think its time we all took the bold step of picking our favorites to win the tournament. I know
many of you might say that the right time to do this will be after the group stage draw that will
happen in about two weeks time on the 4th of December.

At last the 'maybe' penalty goes our way and Van Dijk steals the first half from Adelaide.
Reinaldo, Van Dijk and Nichols where way too strong for Adelaide's defence. Reinaldo and Van Dijk's
one touch passing was fantastic to watch. We need to see more of this at home. Mitch scored a
cracker that hit the bar, bounced in - behind the line, then out.

The thing I love most about the Champions League is the weird and unpredictable score lines you get
right across the continent. I also love it when a manager makes a substitution and within minutes
of that player stepping onto the field, he scores a cracker to put his team ...

Interesting story in Bild recently, suggesting that Fabio Capello has been asking Stuart Pearce
to keep an eye on Werder Bremen's 23 year old attacking mid/forward Aaron Hunt, who you can see
above scoring twice for Werder Bremen (in white) this weekend. The second goal (which tied the game
at 2-2) is an absolute cracker of a chest-volley combo.

Manchester United, Everton, Sunderland, and Birmingham. All of them have entered, but not one of
them has exited for the better.
As I've mentioned on many occasions, Turf Moor is one of the worst places for a visiting team to
travel to. The crowd is insane, and Burnley always are ready to impress their fans.

Three losses in a row has suddenly left Palmeiras' championship chances in grave doubt. The

This will be the biggest thing in a couple of years. Just like UEFA have done with their
Champions League, we will do with this. This will be to cricket what the... er... Champions League
is to football.

To all ye doubters who mocked at my observation of some other tournament being the clear
inspiration for this tournament.

Anfield Talk 17 October @ 12:08 PM EST
Rafael Benitez, the man who finds fault in the best of displays, is reportedly having trouble
lifting the sombre mood at Liverpool.
As a manager, it is all very well concentrating on the negatives, on the one bad thing a player
does in a game, say, rather than offering congratulations on a spectacular hat-trick.

Next Saturday "La Liga" has en exciting match up; VALENCIA CF vsFC BARCELONA. These two Clubs have

relivethis absolute "cracker" from the then Valencia Captain GAIZKAMENDIETA.

I've just watched the Sevilla v Real Madrid game, and it was a bit of a cracker, as was expected.
The game may prove to be significant in various ways this season, but anyone watching can have
little doubt as to the wonders that La Liga will have to offer this season. A two-horse race?
Forget it. More like fools and horses - the fools being those that write off Sevilla, the horses
being the chaps who occupy the left side of Real Madrid.

Arsenal 6 (Vermaelen 17, Van Persie 33, Arshavin 37, Fabregas 57, Walcott 75, Bendtner
89) Blackburn 2 (Nzonzi 4, Dunn 30)
(Premiership)
Arsene Wenger's time in charge has been characterised by some fantastic flowing football,
spectacular goals, crisp passing, the coming of age of outrageously talented youngsters, and the
odd bit of defensive frailty.

Well that was bloody fantastic.
It was probably one of the best attacking displays I have seen and the scary thought is that at
the start of both half's it took quite a while for us to get going, if we had been at that
intensity for 90 minutes Blackburn and their fat manager would have still been totting up all the
goals 24 hours on.

After last night's abridged SPL predictions, here we are with the full card for today.Allow me to

Obviously not the result we were hoping for. The lads did indeed show up to play tonight but the
final touch wasn't there. Creating and finishing chances is a huge part of football though, so
we've only ourselves to blame (well, maybe the refs can share the blame!). I was stuck in the
office for this match, but I was able to watch a low-quality stream for about twenty minutes in the
second half.

Last season, United had played all of the season before's top ten away from home before
Christmas, which was reflected in our position in the league. This season we've had another pretty
tough start, playing Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur when they were on fire, and the other form team,
City, are to come.

Despite conceding a goal in the first minute Manchester United rallied back through Giggs and
Anderson (yes, Anderson!) to make it 2-1 at half-time. A second yellow to Paul Scholes put their
position under pressure but some smart defensive work and a superb goal (all the goals in this game
were quite good) by Wayne Rooney meant that United took the three points - and set up next week's
Manchester derby quite nicely.

Nicklas Bendtner netted a cracker against Portugal as Denmark went 1-0 up with just moments to go
before half-time. The 21-year-old, who recently signed a new contract with Arsenal, chested the
ball down before smashing in a left footed strike mashed in a left footed strike just outside the
Portuguese six-yard box.

Arsene Wenger was left frustrated after his side's 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Manchester
United. Having taken the lead from an Arshavin cracker, the Gunners were reached and then passed by
Alex Ferguson's side.
Speaking of the game yesterday, the Frenchman highlighted how his squad may be lacking a little
bit in experience, adding how his players may have wrongly assessed the two situations leading to
the goals.

Interesting article on The Roar today regarding the viability of having the A-League on Free To Air

Although author Adrian Musolino makes some good points I cannot help but think he has missed a
critical one.
