City back in business...

Man City is back in business??? Alot ppl already write off City saying that Man Utd already the Premier League Champion. I truly still have faith with Man City and till now Man City is not back in business but when ever were they out of business!!! My call still stands with Man City winning the title this year.

Clearly the Bookie Effect (BE) lately is very severe and obvious involving few top teams for the past few games such as Man City, Tottenham, Chelsea and worst of all Liverpool. Liverpool i must said they are the worst by far. Why? Maybe new American owner are too desperate for $$$ or King Kenny wants to be the King of BE. If he wants that I'm sure he had done a brilliant job as even a team like Wigan and QPR they don't mind losing when they were 2 goals up for good and lose at home to Wigan which i must said the most awful team among the 20 teams.

Well, lets just forget about last week and concentrate on this weekend matches. 8 matches on Saturday. Aston Villa vs Chelsea, a must and sure win for the Blues as they are 5 points behind Tottenham and 8 behind Arsenal while Villans are simply aweful in the second half of the league till now. QPR vs Arsenal, a shocking defeat maybe for the Gunners...as i bet their good run to come to an end this weekend with a shocking defeat or a draw at Loftus Road. My money on QPR. Everton vs WBA & Wigan vs Stoke, i fancy a draw for both this match.

Fulham vs Norwich, a home win for Fulham. Man City vs Sunderland, a sure win for City boys with their 16 home win at Etihad stadium and a perfect 100% home win record to continue. Wolves vs Bolton, a very interesting relegation battle...in time like this i would prefer to opt for the home team to get at least a draw or a win at Molineux stadium. Late game on Saturday night featuring Newcastle vs  Liverpool. My bet will be a convincing away win for liverpool with few goals maybe as its time for them to bounce back with the hope of Andy Carrol to score against his old club and Suarez to continue his scoring spree.

Only one game on Sunday featuring Tottenham vs Swansea. A home win with Spurs to bounce back from their recent slump. Lastly another Monday night game for the Devils, Blackburn vs Man Utd. Blackburn is one of the 3 teams who had beaten Man Utd this season and i strongly believe they are able to get a good result from this game, a draw at least with a win and doing the double against the current leader + champion. 

My picks for this week would be Chelsea, QPR, Liverpool and Blackburn. QPR & Blackburn, the underdogs to have a shocking results and a convincing win for the Blues and surely a 5 star performance from the Reds in thrashing the Magpies at Sports Direct Arena!!!

Man U the Premier League Champion???

What do you think...Man U the 2012 Premier League Champion!!! On paper(theoritically) it may as well be but practically saying I really doubt about it. If you were to ask me I would always put my money on the practicality as it simply works better in the world nowadays. So my money will still be on Man City to be the Premier League Champion...simply they are a better side, they deserve it and they are the next BIG thing or should i say the new force to be recognise in modern English football.

With remaining 9 matches to go...everything is heating up as 2 teams fighting for the champion, 5 teams fighting for 2 champions league spot, 6 teams in relegation dog fight while the rest can just be a routine to get to the 40 points mark to be safe for another year of Premier League football. Which teams will qualify for the champions league and which teams to be relegated? Judging from the table its quite clear that Spurs and the Gunners are the favourites while teams to be relegated although they are 6 teams there the more likely to go down would be the current bottom 3 side but hard to say as i said its just base on paper and the table now where there are still 27 points offered to be grab just like last season where Wigan was save in the last minutes with winning the last few games and avoiding the drop but i truly believe that fat lady won't sing twice as by next year they will be playing the Championship football alongside with Wolverhampton. The interesting team to watch would be QPR, will it be that unlucky for Tony Fernandes's Air Asia + MAS by sponsoring half way this season straight away being relegated...is it a curse just like Proton few years back on Norwich and Cardiff for failing to be promoted after being own by our Berjaya founder Mr Vincent Tan. I, personally feel QPR will be safe and not relegated this season.

For this weekend matches, we have an early match between Chelsea vs Tottenham. Chelsea is like a rejuvenated side after Abramovich fired AVB so gone are the days for Resident Evil...haha!!! They are like a team reborn and the spirit they showed against Napoli really amaze me where all the old uncles really perform nicely and even on the score sheet eg.Drogba, Terry & Lampard. Who said old man can't play football and not competitive in the football world now. A fascinating facts + reality!!! Tottenham are currently in a slump as lately their results have been poor or maybe that's their true capability??? well, only time will tell but for this match I bet on a positive result for the Blues as they will surely get something out of this match either a draw or a win which i fancy the later. Old man/unlces to roar at Stamford Bridges... 

Bolton vs Blackburn, a relegation battle. A 50-50 match so of course safe side would surely be opting for home team in this situation. Swansea vs Everton, I'll opt for the away team for this one. Liverpool vs Wigan, a sure win for the Reds as they had been really a disappointment is Premier League this season. Liverpool to bounch back from midweek shock defeat to QPR. Arsenal vs Aston Villa, Villans to get a result from this match. Norwich vs Wolves, a win for Wolves. Sunderland vs QPR, a win or draw for Sunderland. WBA vs Newcastle, a win for Newcastle.

Sunday game featuring Stoke vs Man City. Surely no slip-up for the Citizens. Lastly Monday noght football, Man Utd vs Fulham. A shock result waiting for MU!!! a win for Fulham...or at least a draw and its time for City to regain + maintain the lead in the league table. My pick of this week none other than Liverpool, Chelsea and Man City, not forgetting Fulham...Liverpool to thrash Wigan 4-0!!!

Blue & Red back on winning ways???

Bye bye to AVB as Chelsea is now without a coach but should b playing much better and improve game as i'm very sure all d old players plan had succeed but ousting d young coach. So whoever d coach take charge now i'm sure they will play seriously for the last champions league spot. So this week i pick a win for the Blues against Stoke. Liverpool vs Sunderland, i predict sunderland slump without a win in 3 past games to continue and a win for liverpool.

aston villa vs fulham, a home win for villans. wolves vs blackburn, everyone will predict a high scoring game as both are expert in conceding goals and if i were to pick a team i would go for Rovers. Everton vs Tottenham, Tottenham is currently in a slump so i expect them to continue with the slump n Everton to get something out of this match. Swansea vs Man City, surely a win for the citizens.

Man Utd vs WBA, a draw probably. Im sure alot Man Utd fans will scream at me on this...haha!!! a bold prediction 0-0 dull n draw game. Norwich vs Wigan, i fancy Wigan to get a result from this match. Lastly, Arsenal vs Newcastle another draw game maybe...

My picks of this week would be Chelsea, Liverpool and Aston Villa.

Manchester United to Lose Ground???

Hello there, last week were indeed an interesting week as Arsenal demolish Spurs 5-2 after going to goal down and the carling cup final match was indeed an oscar nominations and winner as i dunno what else to comment except for a real friendly + bookie effect match.

This week the 1st and early kick-off match everyone will look forward to will surely be Liverpool vs Arsenal. After a wonderful run of the month of February Gunners should be off steam for this match dy as Liverpool players will surely be motivated and more than fired up after lifting the carling cup going into this match as i fancy Liverpool to stay unbeaten at home and tip them for a win.

Qpr vs Everton, Wigan vs Swansea, Stoke vs Norwich...i would fancy and bet my money on the home teams for this few matches. Man City vs Bolton, a sure win for the Citizens of course just a matter of how many goals the winning margin will be only. WBA vs Chelsea, i fancy a draw as Chelsea's display last week is still not convincing enough. Blackburn vs Aston Villa, judging from Blackburn's worst defending record among the 20 teams in the Premier League Villa can really get something out of this match either a draw or even a win for them to end their slump lately.

The match of the week would surely be Tottenham vs Man Utd. I truly believe Man Utd to lose start losing ground to Man City this week as Spurs is simply a solid and most improve + balance team in terms of of defending, midfield and attack as well. All round wise they are surely better than Man Utd at the moment especially in the midfield so i fancy a 2-1 home win for Spurs.
    
As for my picks of this week would be Stoke again to continue their winning streak & Wigan to topple Swansea.
