Random: Barca Face The Cold, Bojan Looks Hot

Barcelista 02 November @ 02:07 PM EST
- Barca's upcoming match against Rubin Kazan is no small deal. Weather conditions are looking to be pretty harsh, with the climate there at this time of year much colder than what our players are used to, and measures have been taken... from the team traveling to Kazan two days before match day to get used to the cold a bit, to the special gear designed by Nike to keep the players warm.

Obertan’s debut – the birth of a superstar?

Premiership Talk Blog 02 November @ 10:00 AM EST

As a Manchester United fan Saturday's 2-0 win over Blackburn represented much more than just three points. Not only did Dimitar Berbatov score yet another sensational goal, but young French winger Gabriel Obertan made his Premier League debut. Obertan impressed midweek in the Carling Cup against Barnsley, but seeing him against Premiership opposition just meant that much more.

Football Filtered #18

| Post Match Pint 01 November @ 05:52 AM EST
Hello and welcome to the latest look at what as been passing through the Football Filter this week.
The managerial merry-go-round looks set to get a kick-start as twitchy chairman hover their fingers over the trigger. One of those managers under pressure is Hull's Phil Brown. But after his heroic Premier League survival last year is Brown the victim of raised expectations? Click to continue reading...

RoM Reaction To Blackburn Victory

Republik Of Mancunia 31 October @ 04:25 PM EST

By the time the final whistle blew today I was wondering when United were going to get started. That's the measure of Champions isn't it, being able to win when still in first gear? Well that's all fine and well but with Chelsea and Arsenal building up their goal differences each week, we could do with battering the teams we totally outplay.

The Real Problem

SoccerLens 29 October @ 03:43 AM EST

So a new President and around 250 million pounds later, Real Madrid find themselves in exactly the same position as they were at the end of Bernd Schuster's ill-fated rated reign in 2008.

With the loss at Alcorcon in the Copa del Rey all Real Madrid's match day personnel have been thrown into the spot-light as, when coupled with the suspect draw at Sporting Gijon, the Real Madrid express train has, temporarily at least, ran out of steam.

Ahead Of Our Trip To Barnsley…

Republik Of Mancunia 27 October @ 11:07 AM EST

Manchester United travel to Barnsley today with the hope of getting a result which will help put the disappointment of the weekend behind us.

Of course, we won't be seeing the same line-up who started at Anfield but with strong competition for places in the squad, the team won't be made up or just youngsters.

Kelantan fans excited by Malaysia Cup run

Jakarta Casual 26 October @ 06:17 PM EST
ERIC SAMUEL
The Sultan Mohd IV Stadium in Kota Baru is a "football heaven" for Kelantan coach B. Sathianathan.
The former national coach said that teams should look forward playing in Kota Baru and not be intimidated by their partisan fans.
"The kind of atmosphere you get playing here is lacking in Malaysian football," said Sathianathan after Kelantan, backed by a sell-out 25,000 crowd, defeated KL Plus 3-0 in a Malaysia Cup quarter-final second-leg match on Saturday to advance 4-1 on aggregate. Click to continue reading...

How Things Could Have Been Different At Anfield

Republik Of Mancunia 26 October @ 07:53 AM EST

Following United, the expectation is our lads will create at least five clear cut chances and at the very least, one will get put in the back of the net.

At Anfield yesterday this wasn't the case but the frustration we feel through the hangovers today could have been avoided if several things had been done differently.

La Liga: FC Barcelona vs Real Zaragoza, Camp Nou, Sunday, October 26 2009, 21:00 CET

Barcelista 25 October @ 07:48 AM EST
After a painful loss at home to Rubin Kazan in the Champions League, Barca are looking to bounce back into form with tonight's Liga meet with Real Zaragoza. With four days separating last match day from this one, the team's had more time to prepare than usual in this World Cup- affected schedule. What with that, players reterning from injury, and Real Madrid dropping two points last night, tonight's game should be a great one for Barca. Click to continue reading...

Cantona Masks Aplenty – Don’t Forget To Take Yours!

Republik Of Mancunia 22 October @ 09:07 AM EST

"Au revoir Cantona and Man United... come back when you've won 18" read the banner at Anfield all those years ago. Back then it appeared laughable that this rejuvenated United team, under the guidance of Alex Ferguson, could even dream of going on to win eighteen titles. But if we were ever to win eighteen, they certainly would have added another ten or twenty league titles to their collection.

Fergie: Our Football Was Mature And Fabio Outstanding

Republik Of Mancunia 22 October @ 05:46 AM EST

Sir Alex Ferguson is happy with our 1-0 away win against CSKA Moscow last night with Antonio Valencia bagging the winning goal.

"I think we should be proud of it," said Ferguson. "It's not easy away from Europe because we've been to some fantastic places over the years. Maturity there is a way you play in Europe away from home and I think you saw tonight we showed good patience in the game and kept good possession, I think that's a key factor.

European giants set for Champions League clash

La Liga Talk 21 October @ 06:43 AM EST

Last night saw mixed fortunes for Spanish sides as Sevilla made it three wins from three in the Champions League this season but Barcelona lost 2-1 at home to Rubin Kazan and was probably the most unexpected result of the night, in a night that produced more than one surprise scoreline.

Tonight though is the meeting of the two European giants AC Milan and Real Madrid which looks like being the tastiest double header in the Champions League this season.

RoM Reaction To Bolton

Republik Of Mancunia 18 October @ 07:20 AM EST

I got on to the concourse just in time to catch the Chelsea game from the 89th minute onwards. After Villa had gone 2-1 up I thought at best Chelsea would score an injury time equaliser, at worst, an injury time winner but kept my fingers crossed they would drop points regardless.

There was a roar at the final whistle before then pouring up the steps in to our seats in anticipation it what could be a table topping result.

Fergie: Bolton Gave Us A Panic

Republik Of Mancunia 17 October @ 02:43 PM EST

Sir Alex Ferguson reflects on our victory over Bolton.

"It was harder than it should have been, there were a lot of opportunities to finish the game," Ferguson said. "And when that happens, two-goal leads aren't particularly great and of course Bolton scored and then it was back to walls stuff really for that last ten minutes, there was a bit of panic.

Manchester United took the lead after a Michael Owen header deflected off Zat Knight in to the back of the net, before Antonio Valencia scored his first United goal to give us a 2-0 lead. Matt Taylor pulled one back for the visitors, leading to a nervous last ten minutes after squandering plenty of chances up until that point, but it ended with three points for United and us going back on top.
