Premier League Quick Fire Update


I haven't wrote a blog in a while so here's my quick fire views on what's happening in the Premier League world. 


Arsenal find themselves top of the table, can they really win the league or will Arsenal blow up in sensational fashion like they tend to do/ I think they will find a way to mess up this great opportunity in winning the Premier League. 

Man City are scoring goals for fun its a joke, I can't see anyone beating them at home but I will stick with my original pick of Chelsea winning the title. Chelsea look like the Chelsea of old under Jose just grinding their way through teams.

I thought Liverpool would have fallen by now but the performances of Suarez has kept them in the top four. Sturridge has also been playing out of his skin. Sherwood seems to be getting the right tune out of Tottenham with Adebayor back in the fold. 

David Moyes is having a tough time getting slated left right and centre, he does need a boost or a signing or the injuries to stop. However the aim now is a top four finish which I feel is a must. I don't know if he will get it as they now need Everton, Liverpool or Spurs to fall fast. United could do with buying a centre midfielder in January to give them and him a boost. 


The drop zone is is very tight and this looks like it will go down to the wire. So at the minute it's looking bad for Cardiff and West Ham. Fulham are in serious trouble. Swansea have been surprisingly poor. Sunderland have some fight, Palace have more fight while Stoke may see that Mark Hughes is not really all that. Norwich seem to be in trouble then pull out a big win which gets them out of it for a week.

I will revise my top four and relegation picks after the transfer window closes.

Where has as it all gone wrong for Chelsea?

After Chelsea’s defeat in Germany to Bayer Leverkusen manager Andre Villas-Boas is a man under serious pressure no matter what he thinks. As Chelsea sank to their third defeat from their last five games I look into where has it gone wrong? Well Chelsea was on a run of six unbeaten going in to their game at Loftus Road towards the end of October. A game where Chelsea thought they would walk all over their London rivals. This didn’t happen that day in West London Chelsea lost the game and lost the plot. The repercussions of that match have still left an effect. QPR won 1-0, but the game will also be remembered for John Terry’s racist slur, Chelsea’s ill-disciplined team (7 yellows and 2 reds). Plus AVB was fined £12,000 after the game for comments made about the referee. Since that match Chelsea have only beaten Blackburn Rovers & Everton on penalties. Their defence looks weak, Terry is getting exposed and David Luiz is not the best partner. Centre of midfield is a problem, Lampard ...

After this weekend’s events what have we learnt in the Premier League. Firstly its Man City’s title to lose, 11 wins and 1 draw in the league at this point they look unstoppable. Man United have a problem in centre midfield. Rooney is filling a gap there and Fergie knows he has a problem. There’s a lack of creative talent in the centre of the park, missing out on Nasri & Sneijder is showing plus the loss of Scholes showed how good he really was. Young could move into the centre where he did play for Aston Villa which could be an option. Tottenham look to be firing on all cylinders now, pace down both wings and they have the creative spark with Modric and Van Der Vaart. Now with Scott Parker doing the dirty work they look in good condition for top 4. Newcastle United’s first test against City was always going to be hard after an easy start to the season, but they do look solid at the back and have been exciting to watch. Chelsea look to have forgotten how to defend, lost th...

English sides in Champions League..

A look at the English sides in Champions League action this week. Real Madrid v Liverpool  Out of form Liverpool head to Madrid which was always going to be the toughest game of the group. They were given a footballing master class at Anfield by the current European Champions as they won 3-0. Madrid are on a 11 game winning streak in all competitions and I only see that continuing. Liverpool are struggling, Mario Balotelli hasn't lived up to the hype, while Gerrard is struggling this season and it looks like he will be rested, or in other words 'dropped'. There is a clear over reliance on Raheem Sterling, if you keep him quite you keep Liverpool quite. They still can't defend, which cost them their first ever Premier League title. I see Real Madrid winning this 4-0 with Ronaldo scoring the first. Arsenal v Anderlecht  Arsenal could practically seal their place in the knock-out stages of the Champions League with a win here. The Gooners snatched victory against Anderlech...
