Transfer Rumors 2013 – Leighton Baines to Manchester United, Patrice Evra to PSG
Posted on 7 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerTwo things are obvious regarding a couple of the best left backs in the Premier League: Leighton Baines is going to leave Everton for Manchester United at some point, and Patrice Evra isn’t going to stay at Old Trafford for much longer. His next destination? Probably PSG. More
Andre Villas Boas vs Chelsea & Champions League Teams
Posted on 7 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerAfter a pretty disappointing yet good enough to qualify group stage campaign from Tottenham in the Europa League, Andre Villas-Boas decided it’s time to start mending some old wounds by attacking Chelsea and other Champions League teams joining the competition after the group stage.

Arsenal FC – Thierry Henry Isn’t the Answer
Posted on 6 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerOnce again, Arsene Wenger and Arsenal turn to a sentimental source that answers some of their fans’ woes instead of actually tending to their real problems. A year older, slower and anything else you want to add, Thierry Henry is on his way to another loan spell in somewhat of a vacation from his American life. More
FC Barcelona – The Lionel Messi Fall that Silenced a Stadium
Posted on 6 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerThe Camp Nou was far from full in a match that meant nothing to Barcelona, but turned out to be quite costly. Tito Vilanova didn’t start Lionel Messi, which was understandable considering the first place in the group was already a certainty. For some reason, he threw his biggest star into a meaningless match, and paid for it with a minor scare. More
Manchester United – Wayne Rooney Can’t Make Subs Better
Posted on 6 Dec, 2012, by Riven in SoccerIt was a strange approach from Alex Ferguson and Manchester United on their final group stage match of the Champions League this season, clinching qualification a month ago. Wayne Rooney gets to play, maybe to sharpen his finishing and passing before the big derby this weekend, while everyone around him, including Javier Hernandez, probably won’t be playing in the match of the season.

Chelsea FC – Fernando Torres is Back, Eden Hazard Isn’t
Posted on 6 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerYou take what you get, and although the last Champions League evening of the seasons ended in a predictable way for Chelsea (A win that’s not enough to qualify), there were enough good moments to feel happy about and build upon. Like Fernando Torres breaking his goal drought, something Eden Hazard needs to do soon if this team is to rise from its current situation. More
Chelsea FC – At Least Fernando Torres Can Defend
Posted on 5 Dec, 2012, by Riven in SoccerSometimes, you can’t really tell if a manager is serious or not, and considering the pressures Rafa Benitez has been under since taking over the Chelsea manager position, there’s a good chance he’s starting to crack. There’s no other way in explaining his defense of Fernando Torres and his ability, saying the striker is very useful in defending corners. More
Rangers FC – Revenge Against SPL Teams
Posted on 5 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerWhat can Rangers do to other SPL teams now that they’re in the third division? It’s going to take years before they can grab a dominant hold of the top flight like in years past, so for now, making some sort of financial dent in the accounting of some clubs is pretty much all they have to show for.

Neymar – The Greatest Brazilian Since Pele
Posted on 5 Dec, 2012, by Riven in SoccerThe walking, talking, playing and scoring sensation that is Neymar still hasn’t played a single match for a European club in one of the continent’s top leagues, but the Santos star has become the first Brazilian player since Pele in 1970 to receive the Hors concours honor, meaning, more or less, that he’s a step or two above the rest of his peers in the Brasilerão. More
FC Barcelona – Lionel Messi Scores More Than Entire Teams
Posted on 5 Dec, 2012, by Peter in SoccerThe scoring machine that is Lionel Messi never ceases to amaze when new numbers and recognition as to how great his achievements are keep coming out. The Barcelona star has scored 21 goals so far this season in 14 matches; that puts him above 44 teams in the top 4 leagues of Europe up to this point. The list will probably be longer at the end of the season. More
