Get on that Kevin Doyle trainThis week's
Funny Feeling Friday selection is Wolves' Kevin Doyle (5.4M) who has scored 3
goals in his last 4 games, but is only 3% owned in the Fantasy Premier League. He is - what we may
call - an "against the grain" selection...
Doyle comes cheap, but will continue to go ignored by thousands of fantasy managers as Wolves take
on Aston Villa at home this weekend.

1. OTP thought the most controversial 'outside agents' in the Premier League this weekend would be
Harry Redknapp's security team. Little did we know... 2. Pepe Reina should probably have tried to
save the match ball rather than the beach ball. 3. Unbeatable Chelsea suddenly look a bit wobbly.
4. Tweeting can defeat the Big Four!

Carlo's ‘cross' with the defence. What do Abdoulaye Faye, Titus
Bramble, James Collins, and Richad Dunne have in common? They've all scored
against Chelsea from crosses into the box. Totaling half of Chelsea's goals
conceded for the season, 8 in 8 matches, Carlo Ancelotti must address his teams
crossing deficiency before their title challenge resumes against high-flying, Lancashire derby
winners, Blackburn.

Chelsea was shocked at the hands of Aston Villa, as Martin O'Neil's side came off as 2-1 victors at
Villa Park. Former West Ham United Defender, James Collins, scored his first goal for Aston Villa
and handed Chelsea their second successive away defeat in the Premier League Championship. It did
start well for the Blues, as star [.

Martin Laursen is gone but Aston Villa's set piece threat remains. Villa's "Twin Towers" were
brilliant defensively and also scored two thunderous headers to win the game for the home
side.Dunne and Collins goals propelled Aston Villa to joint third with Tottenham and Man City with
16 points.The 2-1 defeat in Villa Park would be a psychological blow to Chelsea, who had lost twice
in as many away

All through this week I have been trying to find reasons (and excuses) for West Ham's lack of form
in the Barclays Premier League. But today I believed that I may have found the reason as to why the
Hammers have failed to receive rewards for their slick one-touch football.
Filtering through the English Premiership news and results, two missing players stood out and Zola
have not been able to compensate for their absence.

. Image via Wikipedia Aston Villa have won the Midlands derby 1-0 against Birmingham at St Andrews.
It turned out to be a quiet game with both sides looking like they didn't want to make a mistake.
The game lacked clear cut chances. Villa keeper Brad Friedel and opposite number Joe Hart were not
troubled until [.

Over the international weekend, several West Ham players were in action for their respective
national teams. Here are the players performances which I have compiled from matches I have seen
and other football news reports.
Robert Green and Matthew Upson saw first team action as England routed Croatia 5-1 in a one-sided
match.

Lots of transfer activity appears to be going on on the final day of the transfer window, with
some very interesting deals rumoured to be going ahead...
Probably the most interesting (or surprising) transfer rumour is that Manchester City are trying
to sign Tottenham's out of favour midfielder David Bentley.

Martin O'Neill looks to bring in Welsh international.
Aston Villa have today launched a bid to being Welsh international defender James
Collins to the club from West Ham United, according to a report from Sky Sports News. (Sky
Sports)
Aston Villa have been busy this summer bringing a few new faces but they are still very much
trying to bring in more signings to stabilize their defence.

Just when I thought West Ham United maybe stabilizing, it comes out of the blue that James Collins
is set to be sold to Stoke City for around five million pounds. It also appears that the selling of
Collins brought about a hell of alot of...

HBL had a column from Christoffer Herberts this morning, riffing on the idea that Wales and Finland

they've both struggled to qualify for a major tournament for over 50 years, they both sruggle with
