With eight goals each, Robin van Persie and Luis Suarez headed the Premier League goal scoring charts. Now, after last weekends fixtures, Suarez has 10 goals.

Gonzalo Higuain, David Silva, Mesut Ożil, Carlos Tevez, Iker Casillas, Yaya Toure and the majestic Cristiano Ronaldo. These were some of the names on display in the first round of games in the journey in attaining European glory. It truly couldn’t get better than this in opening night, as hollered by ESPN. There is little
I normally do not get agitated by articles, which display one’s passion for a club. In fact, it just strengthens the fact that there are some very zealous fans out there who are representing nothing but their love for that beloved team or nation that they support. However, I recently came across this article written in July
September 27th is a Thursday this year. Given that 2012 is a leap year, it will be the 271st day of the year. On this day, the great Roman Francesco Totti will celebrate his 36th birthday, while the folks over at Google HQ celebrate its 14th. However, September 27th, 2012 will also be the first
After compiling a list of my top 10 defenders and strikers, I decided to do something similar on the best glovemen we have seen over the last 20 years. Like previous top 10 lists, the rankings are based on a number of aspects, including quality, trophies and longevity. 10. Jussi Jaaskelainen - Clubs: Bolton,
On Saturday, Ferran Soriano – ex Barcelona CEO - took office at his new club Manchester City. Soriano is often credited with the turnaround in finances at Barcelona and turning them from a side that hadn’t won the Spanish title in 4 years and the European Cup in 11 years into a successful side on
The sale of Nigel De Jong is an extremely strange one. Widely regarded as one of the world’s best defensive midfielders, Manchester City are letting the Dutchman leave City for a measly £3.5m to AC Milan. Hardly a good return on for a player in his prime, especially compared to the price he was bought
There were moments during January when, as a Manchester City fan, I winced when looking at City’s starting eleven. Given that Vincent Kompany had recently received a four-match suspension, and that Kolo Toure was absent due to his participation in the African Cup of Nations, Roberto Mancini was left with two options, play Stefan
For the last few years, it seems that Juventus have been in search of a world-class striker. However, with Juve winning their first Scudetto since the 2002-03 campaign*, this year is more vital than ever. In the final days of the transfer window, Juventus have made this mission their top priority. Here are the more
Adam Johnson this week sealed a move to Sunderland. The 25 year old winger was often cited as the closest England have to Ryan Giggs and how he was the answer to England’s left wing woes. However, Johnson has often failed to live up to that promise. 25 is still young definitely, but at
After the unquestionable snooze fest that was World Cup 2010, I thoroughly enjoyed Euro 2012. There was much more of an attacking intent from the teams involved, but one constant remained: Spain again emerged victorious, showing the importance of creation, movement and being able to keep possession.

Taken from Football Wallpaper 7 #1: Manchester City: The defending Premier League Champions have had an astonishingly quiet summer compared to the past few seasons. With very little entries and the transfer of Robin Van Persie from Arsenal looking a lot less likely, the Citizens main involvement in the transfer market looks to be in the
Taken from Arsenal Site Samir Nasri was destined for big things when he was snapped up by Olympique Marseille at the age of 17. There were several clubs fighting for his signature including Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea, but Nasri decided to choose his home-town club. After 4 impressive seasons at the French club, Nasri was approached
The long awaited Premier League fixtures were released yesterday (June 18th). Once announced, the usual suspects were being tipped for the title. Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and even Tottenham fans were dreaming of what might be, but the main question was – Can anyone top the Manchester clubs?
