Excellent displays against Arsenal, Wigan and Liverpool have underlined just how good a signing he has become. Michael Turner - Hull City The new Michael Dawson? He’s been solid so far this season and his fellow professionals have not been shy about it. A future England defender, but will it take a big money move to a more fashionable club for him to get noticed? Ryan Taylor - Wigan A young defender who only cost 3/4 of a million pounds to Wigan back in 2005, he’s played 8 games this season and scored twice, a good return by any means, including a wicked free kick against Newcastle. Wigan have won their last 3 games and look to open 2009 with a bang. Sylvain Distin - Portsmouth Almost ever present so far this season alongside Sol Campbell, he’s always been a hard worker, but was his last ditch tackle against Adebayor at the Emirates a “come and get me” plea to other clubs? Portsmouth are definitely up against it this year only 3 points above the relegation zone and sinking. It will ne …

A poor start to that season cost the gunners dearly and with expectant supporters demanding an upturn in league performances, there is certainly pressure on Arsene Wenger to produce title winning football at the start of the 2006-2007 campaign. Many outside viewers perceive reaching the champions league final of 2005-2006 was a classic example of “papering over the cracks”. The loss of Patrick Vieira to Juventus hit the gunners hard (harder than many Arsenal supporters ever imagined). They certainly missed his leadership qualities if not his football abilities. As a direct consequence of Vieira’s departure Thierry Henry was instilled as the new captain. Prospects for Arsenal in this seasons campaign remain split between those who believe Arsenal will kick on from last years admirable champions league final appearance and mount a sustained challenge for the golden chalice of premier league glory and those who believe that Arsene Wenger has failed to sufficiently add to the squad with n …

In many ways, the premiership is a victim of its own success and is hugely popular not just within the United Kingdom but also in many countries all over the world. The premier league is considered by many to be the best league in the world. Such popularity means that there is no shortage of investors who are only too eager to share in this success. We now have owners that originate from the United States as well as Russia and the United Arab Emirates and there are more lurking on the horizon just waiting for the opportunity to invest. Another concern that many fans have with these takeovers that are powered by foreign investment is the danger of the clubs concerned losing their identity although many supporters would welcome the injection of cash for transfers. Years ago it was the Italian and Spanish leagues that were the envy of world football and the place where all footballers wanted to ply their trade. These days this is not the case and all roads point to England and the premie …

Arsenal Football The Gunners Premier League Backpack Customer Review: Wonderful
Wonderful product, I bought it so everyone would know which club I support. ARSENAL!!!!!!!!!!! It is pretty big though so that’s good cause I want to drop my 17″ HP in it. I only have 1 small peeve and that is I thought the straps were abit bigger, I’m 6 2″ and my back is pretty broad so they feel pretty small on me, lol. Overall though this is a must have for Arsenal fans and anyone that want a nice backpack.

This can be any type of football but the most popular in the UK is Premier League FF, and in the USA, NFL FF. The game is very easy to play and the variety of systems and sites provide everything you need to get started. It is a 100% social experience with the internet being the main reason why it is so popular today. For those of you who are looking for any opportunity to stretch out the fantasy season as long as possible, take a look at NFL Fantasy Football which is thriving as an NFL fan obsession. The game creates new and powerful networking dynamics by bringing employees from every level of the organization chart together and different departments for five months during the NFL season. I love football and College Football is where my heart lies, but the NFL knows that to keep guys like myself truly interested every week that they need to embrace the game and they’ve certainly done that. Before the NFL season starts, managers/coaches draft their own team, consisting of NFL players …

Stoke With Chelsea just managing to beat Southend in the cup, they will be looking for all three points in their home game. Chelsea should start with Anelka and should win the game quite easily. Even though Liverpool made hard work of their match the previous weekend against Stoke, Chelsea should be able to overpower this newly promoted side. Despite having only won only 2 of the last 6 games, Chelsea at home with the in form Anelka bagging a few goals in the last few games are getting their act together as the premier league enters in to the final half of the season, Stoke having gained a point from their travels to Anfield will be buoyed when travelling to Stamford bridge. With Stoke losing 3 and drawing 3 in the last 6 games, you can be certain that stoke will not will the game at Stamford bridge. Game Prediction: Chelsea Win 1:0 Man City v Wigan With Kaka taking all the headlines in the big money transfer gossip of the century, and only having 1 win in the last 6 games, it amazes …

A. Cup Semi-Final Replay between Arsenal and Man Utd at Villa Park in the Spring of 1999. This was the year of the famous Treble that was achieved by Man Utd, when they secured the F.A. Cup, European Cup and the Premier League, and indeed to anyone watching them over that season, destiny would be the one of the first words used to describe that season. And one of the best examples of that was the match against The Gunners. Utd took the lead through a wonderful 25-yard curling shot from David Beckham which nestled into the the bottom left hand corner of David Seamen’s net. The dream start had come for Utd. David Beckham, whatever else he may be, is gifted I feel with a tremendous right foot, and he has the ability to generate enormous amounts of spin. It stayed 1-0 until mid-way through the second half when Denis Bergkamp, Arsenal’s Dutch forward, cut inside from the left wing and struck a shot. It was a weak effort, but gaining a deflection from Utd defender Jaap Stam it hit the back o …
