Juventus FC – Paul Pogba Puts Them Back on Track
In a few years from now, Paul Pogba might turn out to be one of the greatest signings Juventus have ever made. At 19 years old, the French midfielder is proving to be more than just a subtle addition to a championship squad, but a player who might already be ready to lead and dominate.

Still Neck and Neck (Benfica vs Porto)
The best rivalry in Portugal for the last 10 years is Benfica and Porto, while the decline and decay of Sporting continues. The O Clássico always produces great matches, and this season, with the title race going neck and neck, both teams being inseprable, it produced the most incredible 17 minutes right from the start.

Arsenal Should Get Rid of Laurent Koscielny
Mike Dean was the worst referee of the day, despite Howard Webb also officiating an earlier match. Vincent Kompany should never have been sent off. Laurent Koscielny, on the other hand, should have been. Arsene Wenger needs to learn from Dean, and send away this terrible centre back from Arsenal.

Robin van Persie Leads Manchester United to Another Win over Liverpool
For the fourth consecutive time, Old Trafford was too much for Liverpool, who came to play about 60 minutes too late. Manchester United were the better side for the first hour, including the entire first half, getting enough of an advantage through the goals of Robin van Persie and Nemanja Vidic, giving them enough of an advantage to come away with a 2-1 win.

Biggest Wins in Premier League History
While 8-0 is an impressive result, it’s not something that we haven’t seen before in the Premier League. Not even from Chelsea, who do come up with these big wins in recent years, and have also thrashed Aston Villa in a similar scoreline once or twice.

Casillas vs Mourinho – Only Real Madrid Lose
No one is bigger than the club. Jose Mourinho often thinks he is, but that’s usually when things start to go South. Iker Casillas, with all of his achievements, is not an untouchable, perfect goalkeeper. It’s OK to bench him. However, with everything reeking from some stupid ego war, Real Madrid are the big losers from this. Mourinho is next in line, while Iker Casillas’ position just grows stronger.

Robin van Persie With the Perfect Free Kick Winner (Manchester City vs Manchester United)
Joe Hart took one step too many to his left; Samir Nasri sent his leg forward just a tad too much. Robin van Persie was brought in the beginning of the season to put Manchester United back on top of the Premier League and over Manchester City. In the 90th minute, with a free kick goal against the flow of the final moments he did just that.

Bayern Munich vs Dortmund – The Best Match in Europe
One 1-1 draw doesn’t say all there is to be said about what is growing to be the best rivalry in Europe. The power of the Bundesliga is on the rise, mostly because it now has two clubs to place among the continent’s elite: Bayern Munich, who’ve always been there, more or less; and Borussia […]

Luis Suarez Saves the Day (Chelsea vs Liverpool)
For more than 60 minutes, it didn’t really look like Liverpool were planning to score, let alone win, against a superior yet lackluster Chelsea side, leading thanks to John Terry scoring from a corner kick. But Luis Suarez woke up and finally found some room, connecting with a Jamie Carragher cross to make it 1-1, keeping it that way till the end of the match.

Robin van Persie Opens Manchester United Win vs Arsenal
It took him only three minutes to put the Arsenal chapter of his life behind him. Robin van Persie didn’t celebrate his goal, but it was him saying and cementing the fact that he’s moved on to a better place, a better team, as Manchester United cruised to a 2-1 win against a sad, weak and impotent side fielded by Arsene Wenger.
