Yo soccer fans

BPL had started off and there are several so called unexpected results going around in the BPL. Many had expected that Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea to had a good start but sadly only 2 out of the 4 BPL giants had done that.

Man Utd had a small victory against Birmingham at OT which I would said Birmingham City should deserve at least 1 point. Man utd seems to lack of creativity in the front line. Rooney is trying his best to convince the fans that they can still be the champion without Ronaldo and Tevez but second match against Burnley really is a shock result and proves more that Ronaldo and Tevez departure had a great effect on Man Utd attacks. 3rd Match against Wigan should let the gunner's fans some scare when they travel to OT tmr. 5-0 in the second half and Michael owen getting his first goal seemes to brighten up the Man Utd morale. 2 win 1 lose is not a bad start but should had been 100% record win given their opponent.

Liverpool had not been in their usual form since the start of the BPL. Their opening match lost against Tottenham marks the bad start. I probabaly think that now all the BPL teams had strengthen their squad and had the possibilities to overtake the big 4. Liverpool second match trashed 4-0 against Stoke City and many had thought they had regain their confident but sadly a home defeats against Aston Villa really breaks the heart of Livepool's fans. All 3 goals conceded can be prevented if they are more caution. I think the problem for Liverpool is that Gerrard had not been performing well.

Chelsea had a great start under new manager Carlos Ancelotti and 3 wins of out 3 is a good start. Although Hull City had gave them a scare but really a win is a win. Anelka and Drogba are in top form and this proves crucial to the chelsea attacks.

Arsenal had been predicted by many that there will out of big 4 this season but 6-1 big win against Everton at Goodison Park and 4-1 win against Portsmouth at home really silence the criticise around them. 10 goals in 2 matches and if they continue their form this season,they had a higher chance of getting their first silverware since 4 years.

Yo to all soccer fans

What a interesting summer transfer window we have this year. There are several major signing all around but Man City and Real Madrid are the two top buyers for this year.

Real Madrid had splashed out 65m to buy Kaka and 80m for C.Ronaldo. They had also brought albiol and Benzema which I think would definitely strengthen their attack. The problem is will they gel together and produced the results that all are expected? C.Ronaldo is those of a selfish player where he will bring the ball all the way to the penalty box and take a shot, but can he do that at RM? There are Benzema, Raul and Kaka waiting and shouting for ball and they are all world class player. We need to see how happen when the seasons start to see if what RM spent is worthable. RM at the meanwhile are still in the process of signing Alonso from Liverpool.

Man City had brought Tevez, Roque Santa Cruz, Barry, Toure, Adebayor and most likely Lescott. Many had siad that what Man City do is a correct strategy, what they brought are all from their rivals team which potentially will be the ones that will be fighting against them next season. Tevez = Man Utd, Santa Cruz = Blackbun, Barry = Aston villa, Toure & Adebayor = Arsenal, Lescott = Everton. Luckily they did not manage to purchase Terry. I personally think that Man City had the potential to really challenge the big four with the players they had. The best signing would probably be Tevez and Toure.
