Qualify or Crucify

Football Is Coming Home 18 September @ 05:35 AM EST


Croatia have qualified for three successive World Cups since Independence, reaching the Semi Final in 1998. It's a remarkable record for a nation of 4 Million. It could be about to end.
Croatia may have been resurgent under Slaven Bilić, qualifying emphatically for the EURO 2008 tournament, pimping McClaren's England along the way, but 2007-8 was a long time ago.

European travels

Football Fanaticos 11 August @ 07:21 AM EST
I have been travelling around in Europe for a month, and although with the break, there wasn't much football on my busy programme, I did nevertheless notice some things:-I was in Barcelona when R.D. Espanyol inaugurated their new stadium by winning a 3-0 victory against Liverpool. I have always felt some sympathy for Español for being the "little guys" in Barcelona, and was happy to see them play Click to continue reading...

Liverpool have lost their opening two games of their pre-season, and although manager Rafael Benitez isn't concerned by the results or the performances, he wants to see his side return to winning ways when they take on Thailand this evening.

Part-time Pundit 22 July @ 12:34 AM EST



In a week when the heavies of European football struggled to make any significant impact around the globe*, comes another surprising result straight out of the bowels of Ireland. Shamrock Rovers, a team whose name sounds more like a wrestling move or a Robbie Williams album title than a football team, made a good account of themselves and put up an almighty battle against the squillion-dollar boys of Real Madrid.

Xabi Alonso: Real Madrid’s Project Is Impressive But I Won’t Force Liverpool Exit

Anfield Talk 20 July @ 12:58 PM EST
Real Madrid have spent the last few weeks haggling with Liverpool to take Xabi Alonso to the Santiago Bernabeu.

The 2009/10 Heart Of Clackmannanshire Team Photo

Twohundredpercent 16 July @ 04:02 PM EST

The new season is almost upon us so, fresh from the training ground, here is the very latest Heart of Clackmannannshire team photograph ahead of the new season. The more observant amongst you may have noticed a couple of new signings for The Clackas. Jim Reaper joins the club from Steaua Transylvania, whilst veteran Bert Harris has travelled north to finish his career in Scotland after forty-one glorious seasons with Royal Perivale, Perfidious Albion and a disastrous spell in Austria playing for Flaccid Vienna, which ended after an interview deemed so hate-filled that he was barred for life from entering anywhere in Europe outside of the United Kingdom.

Calcio, Donadoni crede nel progetto Napoli: "Sarà vincente". E si gode un ritrovato Lavezzi

CitySport...un Mondo nuovo... 12 July @ 04:10 AM EST
Anche il Napoli ha iniziato a correre e a prepararsi per la nuova annata. Le delusioni del torneo appena finito lasciano spazio alla voglia di riscatto. Nella bassa Austria, a circa 60 km da Vienna, dove ha scelto di "alloggiare", il gruppo allenato da Donadoni lavora, in silenzio, pregustando già la stagione del rilancio.

VP Signs - Oficial + some real fantasy football

LadyArse - Arsenal and the world of football from a woman's perspective @ OleOl 09 July @ 06:05 AM EST

Microblog alert!

Yes, Van the Man finally signed (OFFICIAL) a new long-term contract (so what's that four years?). Finally. So I guess he's liking what he's seen so far this summer and hopefully has been hearing about all these other wonder-players we've got lined up for 11.

Austria beat France 3-1???

Pro Soccer Weekly 06 September @ 05:21 PM EST
Wow, a huge upset in the first round of European World Cup qualifiers as Austria beat France 3-1. When you look at those lineups, there is no way that France should not at least have come out of Vienna without a draw, and even that would have to be considered an upset. I am sure that the pressure is now squarely on Raymond Domenech, but it really should be on the French FA for keeping Domenech after the debacle that was the French performance at Euro 2008.

Busy Hands on Tour

Sniffing The Touchline 01 August @ 10:19 AM EST
I don't know how he's done it but former Spurs hero Gary Lineker has landed himself basically the best life ever. On top of holding the honour of the joint-leading England goal-scorer of all-time, Lineker has managed to land himself not only a hot chick half his age, but also a working existence based purely on watching football and golf.

Fernando Torres: Rafael Benitez Pushed Me To Greatness

Anfield Talk 05 July @ 04:15 AM EST
Few foreign players have adapted better - or as quickly - to the unique demands of top-flight football in England than Fernando Torres. In his first season, after arriving at Liverpool 12 months ago, he scored 33 goals in all competitions.
Yet as the prolific Spain striker ponders how he can improve next season, having set the bar so high, he is swift to pay tribute to the part that Rafael Benítez played in his rapid and spectacular progress. Click to continue reading...

Euro 2008 FINAL - Germany 0-1 Spain, ¡Viva España! and Breathing Fully

mCalcio 03 July @ 09:04 AM EST
Germany 0-1 Spain. The chokers are no more. In a hard-fought but dominated battle in Vienna, La Selección wiped all of their historical fears and under-achieving inhibitions away: one swift movement (as swift as Fernando Torres's run behind Philipp Lahm, and swifter than his finishing touch over Jens Lehmann) to swipe the European Cup right from [.

Euro 2008 Cold Turkey?

Torres Tipped To Match Henry

Anfield Talk 01 July @ 03:25 AM EST
Germany goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has told Fernando Torres that he is still not as good as Thierry Henry at his best, but could get there in time.
Torres was the match-winner for Spain in the Euro 2008 final as he latched onto a Xavi pass and finished expertly past Lehmann.
Lehmann has been impressed by the Liverpool striker but feels there is still room for improvement. Click to continue reading...

Spain Are The Champions

Congratulations Cesc! I couldn't be happier for the man. I actually got to watch the first half of the game due to a rain delay at the ball park so I got to saw the goal (which was outstanding) that decided the match. Cesc got to start and the score was still 1-0 at the end of the ninety minutes and Cesc and Spain finally got their hands on a trophy. Click to continue reading...

Barcelona ask for help from a very interesting source

Arseblog 30 June @ 06:40 AM EST

Well done to Cesc Fabregas who was part of Spain's Euro 2008 winning side last night. Although he was rather oddly substituted by loopy manager Luis Aragones Spain were never really troubled by Germany and Fernando Torres' goal was enough to win it. Cesc said afterwards:

This the best day of my life as a football player.

Simple Spanish Style Enough To Conquer Europe

SoccerLens 30 June @ 01:00 AM EST
For all the laudatory praise that will inevitably follow Spain's 1-0 victory over Germany in the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna, the culmination of the 2008 European Championship failed to live up to its consistently thrilling early stages. Despite their clear failure to organise a defence befitting a truly great team, Spain are a competent [. Click to continue reading...
