Conference Finals! Well, sort of…

The Offside - Chicago Fire 13 November @ 10:58 AM EST

So we are facing Real Salt Lake for the Eastern Conference Semis, even though RSL isn't from the East! I know it is kinda oxymoronic, but the system has worked for the MLS in the past when one Conference (cough cough, the East last year) is completely dominant over the other. Either way, both teams got here in dramatic fashion.

Rafa - "I Don't Have To Win A Trophy"

The Soccer Weblog 01 November @ 08:51 AM EST
What a difference a week makes. After having romped to victory over bitterest rivals Man Utd at Anfield, somewhat taking the heat off "in-the-firing-line" manager Benitez, Liverpool have themselves imploded in dramatic fashion against a team in the Premier League which, it must be said, don't do much to speed up the process of the paint drying.

Pisa Come Crashing Down Again

Twohundredpercent 25 July @ 04:16 AM EST

Britain isn't the only country in which football clubs are prone to occasional financial collapse. Paul Grech, from the Italian football blog Il Re Calcio, writes on the rise, fall, rise and fall again of the Italian club Pisa AC.

For a city that has been made famous by its gravity defying leaning tower, there's a bit of irony in Pisa AC's penchant for tragic and spectacular crashes.

What a result! Spain 0 USA 2

AT THE FAR POST 24 June @ 07:34 PM EST
Unbelievable. Who would have expected that?
The European Champions were humbled by the United States in the semi final of the Confederations Cup, with the Spanish beaten for the first time since 2006.
Spain just ran completely out of gas in Bloemfontein tonight, and the USA just took their chances to win this encounter taking the lead after 26 minutes, when Jozy Altidore was realeased by Clint Dempsey and the striker shot low, but Casillas, although got a hand to it, could not keep it out.

The Flat Back Four 02 June @ 08:17 AM EST
Clinton "Deuce" Dempsey joined Fulham in January 2007 from MLS New England Revolution for $4million. Dempsey's dream of playing in Europe was achieved. Fulham was the ideal club at the time for an American trying to find his way in Premier League waters. Brian McBride and Carlos Bocanegra had made Fulham their home. Click to continue reading...

Memories of Sir Matt envoked by United's magical season

MIKE JACOBS 15 May @ 10:20 AM EST
Oliver Kay of the Times wrote a piece today that talks of the way Manchester United's run to glory this season looks to mirror the dramatic fashion that Sir Matt Busby's Manchester United teams had years ago.
Every successful title campaign has a defining moment. Think back to Arsenal's Premier League triumph in 1998 and it was crowned by the sight of Tony Adams marauding forward to score a goal against Everton that typified their enlightenment under Arsène Wenger. Click to continue reading...

LIVERPOOL GO OUT IN THRILLER AT THE BRIDGE

Friends of Liverpool FC 14 April @ 04:11 PM EST
Liverpool went out of the Champions League tonight in dramatic fashion.
Needing to overhaul a 3-1 defeat at Anfield they got off to the perfect start with a great free kick by Aurelio.
They then got a penalty when Alonso was fouled in the box, he coolly smashed the ball home to make it 2-0 at half-time and the dream looked on. Click to continue reading...

We Don't Like the Road

Down the Byline 28 September @ 10:22 AM EST
First a little history, 23 weeks ago, I was still waiting on my son to arrive, Barrack Obama and Hilary Clinton were still fighting for the Democratic presidential nomination, Hillcrest Road was still scheduled to begin building in the summer, and the Wizards won their last road game. Who would have thought that with only 1 road game left this season, that the Wizards only road win would come in Chicago, a place they've notoriously had trouble winning at.

Have Manchester City put Tottenham out of the top 4 picture?

White Hart Pain 02 September @ 09:18 AM EST
There was an interesting comment posted on this blog earlier;
‘top 4 and cl football is now near impossible by the way....now that the top 4 has become the top 5'.
The thought crossed my mind yesterday when I heard City were being bought out but it stopped crossing and just sat bang in my head once Berbatov and Robinho came into the picture. Click to continue reading...

Park Makes Monaco Move

Soccerphile World Cup Blog 01 September @ 06:30 PM EST
The week before the transfer window closes is always a busy one. This year it slammed shut on the evening of September 1. Clubs had to buy players before then or they are doomed to wait until January before they can add to their rosters. It can be frantic.
That wasn't the case for South Korean players until last week – it had been quiet, too quiet. Click to continue reading...

If Eboue is the Answer, What was the Question?

Arsenal News News News 19 August @ 03:57 PM EST
Eboue has turned into a figure of ridicule at Arsenal, he has fallen from grace in a dramatic fashion.  He has lost his rightback position to Sagna, laboured at right wing last season, and now is threatening to make the central midfield position his own.  Wenger has a mild form of myopia when it comes [.
