    FC Barcelona – Neymar Waiting for Gerard Martino to Notice Him

    Even without Lionel Messi in the lineup, Gerardo Martino doesn’t seem to want and mess around with a formula that has worked so well for the last few years, keeping Neymar on the bench once again for about an hour before finally using the Brazilian star, while Cesc Fabregas was the one who filled in for the injured Argentine star.

  • Juventus FC – Paul Pogba is the Real Deal

    Juventus FC – Paul Pogba is the Real Deal

    Maybe, at the moment, Paul Pogba is still the fourth option for Juventus to start in their midfield trio, and only got the full 90 minutes in their most recent win over Sampdoria because Claudio Marchisio was injured.

    Money, pride and ego do a lot to a person, and it seems David Moyes isn’t immune to its effects. Suddenly, when speaking from his ivory tower as the manager of Manchester United, he forgets about his actions of the past, speaking and acting in a hypocrisy that seem to sit very much in line with his predecessor at the position, only Alex Ferguson won a thing or two in order to earn the right to say the things he did.

  • La Liga – Malaga vs Barcelona Predictions

    La Liga – Malaga vs Barcelona Predictions

    Over the last couple of seasons, the matches between the two teams of Malaga and Barcelona might have been considered somewhat of a top-of-the-table clash, but no more, as the millions invested in the Malaga projected have stopped coming, while Barca have remained exactly in the same place they’ve been for the last five years.

    Liverpool FC – Daniel Sturridge & Simon Mignolet In Charge of Perfect Start

    It’s funny to think that Daniel Sturridge might have been the odd man out in the Liverpool striker situation considering his prolific start to the season while Luis Suarez is out, suspended.
