Author: Finally, that waste of a striker Dimitar Berbatov did what he was paid to do. Score goals. Berbatov hit the hat trick to lead Man U past a stubborn Liverpool squad.
The Red Devils defeated the Reds 3-2.
This was a huge win for the mighty boys from Old Trafford.
A tie or a loss could have stuck a fork in Man U’s title hopes.
Man U was up to their old tricks again.
The Red Devils jumped to 2-0 lead before Steven Gerrard nailed a PK in the 64th minute and then added a deft strike in the 70th minute to level this sucker at two all.
Enter Dimitar Berbatov in the 84th minute to save the day for Man U.
This is a very disturbing trend for Sir Alex and his boys.
The Red Devils have squandered three leads against Everton, Fulham, and Liverpool.
This baby almost bit them in the butt.
The last time Liverpool won the EPL was 1990.
The Reds are retooling.
This rebuilding effort may last for a while.
If Man U can get Wayne Rooney on track, the Red Devils will be a top-flight club instead of very good.
Man City picked a huge win 2-0 against Wigan.
The Lactics are in the shits.
Carlos Tevez and Yaya Toure ripped the twines for City.
Chelsea took care of business at Home-Stamford Bridge.
The Blues destroyed Blackpool 4-0.
Florent Malouda hit for the daily double.
Didier Drogba and Salomon Kalou tickled the twines too.
The Seasiders never had a chance.
This was Blackpool’s first loss of the season.
Chelsea is top dog with 15 points.
My guys from Arsenal are in the second spot with 11 points.
Manchester United is third with 11 but my Gunners have a plus 10 compared with the Red Devils plus seven goal difference.
Both Man City and Tottenham have eight points but City is a plus four while Spurs are a plus two.

My guys from Arsenal are up to their old tricks on the road. Way to snatch a tie from the jaws of victory.
Darren Bent’s goal in the 95th minute gave Sunderland a one all tie with Arsenal.
Cesc Fabregas scored on a failed clearance attempt by Black Cats defender Anton Ferdinand. The ball went whamo bamo into the back of the net past an astonished keeper Simon Mignolet in the 13th minute.
Then the Gunners reverted to their stupid old losing ways on the road.
A dumb red card by defender Alex Song in the 55th minute and a missed PK by Tomas Rosicky in the 74th minute killed us.
These two events cost Gunner nation the much-needed three points.
Road wins are a must if we are to win the EPL.
Man U last week failed to hold a lead against Everton and now my guys this week against Sunderland did the same thing. This kind of crap may kill our chances to win the title.
A tie is okay but road wins are a must.
This type of BS happened way to much last year now we are repeating it again this year.
This sucks big time.
Spurs picked up a huge 3-1 win over Wolves.
This win will keep Tottenham in the hunt for the Champions league spot.
Wolverhampton led 1-0 until Spurs scored three goals in the final fourteen minutes.
With out Jermain Defoe Tottenham is hard pressed to score.
Thank God for a PK by Rafael Van der Vaart in the 76th minute and goals by Roman Pavlyuchenko 87th minute and Alan Hutton 90th minute saved Spurs hide.
What is wrong with Everton?
Toons beat em 1-0.
Stoke City and West Ham tied one all.
Aston Villa and Bolton tied 1-1.
Blackburn and Fulham kissed their sister one all.
West Brom beat Birmingham 3-1.
It looks like one all ties were the order of the day.
My Gunners had a chance to move into first place but no we are now one point behind Chelsea.
The Blues take on Blackpool on Sunday.
Chelsea has 12 points.
Arsenal has 11.
Tottenham is now in fourth place with eight points.
Man U has eight points.
The Red Devils take on Liverpool Sunday at Old Trafford.

The headline match of the weekend is Liverpool taking on Man U at Old Trafford.
The Reds have a history of beating the mighty boys from Old Trafford.
This Sunday’s encounter might spell doom for Man U.
My guys from Arsenal have a hot date with Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.
We have a history of struggling on the road but this year is a different story.
The Gunners came back from a goal deficit to tie Liverpool at Anfield.
Actually, it was a lucky own goal by the Reds that saved our bacon.
This means our road fortunes are changing.
Chelsea should handle Blackpool at home.
Stamford Bridge has always been kind to the Blues.
Man City takes on lowly Wigan.
The Latics upset Tottenham last weekend.
This match is no gimmie for City.
Spurs battle Wolves at White Hart Lane.
Tottenham needs to win if they still want to entertain hopes of making it back to the Champions League.
Gunner nation is alive and well.

Mengao finally won. Oh, my God what is going on here? Flamengo won on the road beating Gremio-Prudente 2-1.
Two goals in one match wow we are on a scoring tearing. Amazing, our team goal total is now at 18 goals in 22 matches.
We have given up 20 goals.
We are lighting the place on fire.
This was Flamengo’s first win since August 14.
Gremio-Prudente scored first.
Adriano Pimenta ripped the twines in the 40th minute.
He nailed a wonderful header off the leg of the keeper Marcelo Lomba.
Instead of quitting Mengao came back and scored, two second half goals.
Diego Mauricio beat three Prudente defenders. He nailed a great shot to the short left post in the 80th minute.
Then a miracle happened.
Toro nailed a long range-bouncing bomb from the top of the box.
The bounder beat keeper Giovanni in the 94th minute.
This is about time our guys score two late second half goals.
I love it.
This was Mauricio’s first goal since July 21st against Avai.
This huge win moves Flamengo up the table to 14th place.
Mengao has 26 points.
Globo Esporte- O Maracanã ainda não havia sido fechado para obras quando um atacante do Flamengo marcara pela última vez no Brasileirão. Foi em 21 de julho, no empate por 1 a 1 com o Avaí. Diego Maurício foi o autor do gol que virou artigo de luxo na Gávea. Nesta quarta-feira, contra o Grêmio Prudente, no Prudentão, pela 22ª rodada, coube ao garoto encerrar o jejum que tanto atormentava os homens de frente. Curiosamente, diante do mesmo adversário contra o qual estreou no time profissional, no primeiro turno, sofrendo pênalti e tudo. Mas houve quem brilhasse mais. Houve um gol mais importante. Toró. Volante, destruidor de jogadas. Foi dele o gol aos 49 do segundo tempo, gol de uma vitória de virada do Rubro-Negro: 2 a 1. Com um jogador a mais durante toda a etapa final, o time de Silas penou, sentiu os efeitos do condicionamento físico ruim, mas ganhou na raça. A série de sete jogos sem vitória chega ao fim, e os três pontos conquistados jogam o time para 14ª posição, com 26 pontos.
Next up for Flamengo is archrival Fluminense on Sunday September 19th in Rio de Janeiro.

My guys from Arsenal took Braga to the woodshed. The Gunners skunked em 6-0.
The rout was on.
This sucker was over from the opening bell.
Cesc Fabregas nailed a PK in the 9th minute.
Fabregas created the PK when he slipped a beautiful pass to mate Chamakh sidestepped the Braga keeper.
Wham bam.
Chamakh was tackled.
The result.
Our first goal
Marouane Chamakh was rewarded in the 34th minute.
He nailed a perfect strike.
Andrei Arshavin ripped a winner in the 30th minute.
Fabregas added his second goal in the 53rd minute.
Carlos Vela hit for the daily double too. He found the back of the net in 69th and 83rd minutes.
This was a huge win in our house Emirates.
We’re off to as good start in the Champions League Group.
Finally, the young dudes are playing as a cohesive unit.
Fabregas, Arshavin, Vela, Wilshere, and Nasri are comfortable on the pitch together.
Add Chamakh and we’re gonna be dangerous as the season progress.
Chelsea took care of business on the road whipping MSK Zilina 4-1.
Nicholas Anelka led the way with the daily double.
Michael Essian and Daniel Sturridge ripped the twines too.
All in all, it was a good start for the EPL.
Two wins and two ties.
Now it’s back to EPL play this weekend.
Gunner nation is happy.

Rangers stacked the “D” end of the pitch. This forced Man U to fight thru two layers of defenders. This tactic paid off handsomely for Rangers. This earned them a nil-nil draw with the mighty boys from Old Trafford.
Man U played at their house in the opening round of Group play in the Champions League.
Rooney, Rio Ferdinand, and Darren Fletcher were the only regulars who saw action on this night.
Sir Alex used mostly subs in this match.
Man U has a huge match against Liverpool on Sunday at Old Trafford.
The Reds have a history of sticking it the Red Devils.
The bad news was this Antonio Valencia broke his ankle in this puppy. He will miss at least two months or so.
Valencia is an up and coming young star of the Red Devils.
SIDE NOTE:
This bullshit has to stop. Too many players are going down like flies.
There needs to be a players union to stand up and stop FIFA and the futebol clubs from grinding players into the ground and force these idiots to have a sane schedule of matches.
Until the players stand up and stop this crap, this garbage will continue to happen.
Form a players union and force management to reduce the number matches played during a season.
Futebol needs a Curt Flood.
BACK TO THE ACTION:
Man U controlled the match but they couldn’t crack the code.
Tottenham on the other hand jumped to an early two goal lead at Werner Bremen however the home side came back and scored two goals to earn a two all tie with Spurs.
Tottenham was missing two of their key players Jermain Defoe and Luka Modric.
Modric’s leg was not broken.
This is good news for Spurs.
Harry me Boy you are learning about life at the top of the EPL.
Experience is hard teacher. You get the task first and the lesson later.
Spurs should have earned the full three points.
Not on this night for Werner Bremen came back to earn the draw.

For much of the match Mengao played like they always do. It was pure garbage to watch. In a matter of a blink of an eye both Flamengo and Vitoria had a goal fest late in the second half.
Both sides erupted for four goals from the 70th to the 84th minutes.
Rubro-Negro and Vitoria tied at two all.
Kleberson hit for the daily double to save us from a sure fire loss.
Flamengo stinks big time.
Mengao is worse than stink.
We are hovering near the drop zone.
Flamengo has 23 points.
Mengao is in 16th place one-step above the you’re outta here zone.
Atletico-MG is in the 17th place with 21 points.
Vitoria has 24 points.
Leao is one step above us in 15th place.
Both sides stink to high heaven.
This is a little Philly terminology for ya.
Mengao’s winless streak has now ballooned to seven matches.
Globo Esporte- Dois times rubro-negros que, juntos, não venciam há 11 jogos. Diante de tantas fraquezas e poucas virtudes, Flamengo e Vitória conseguiram, pelo menos, emoção e empataram por 2 a 2 na noite deste sábado, em Volta Redonda. Mas para a tabela do Campeonato Brasileiro o resultado foi desastroso para ambos. O atual campeão chega a sete jogos sem vencer, pula para 23 pontos e segue em 16º, ‘flertando’ com a zona de rebaixamento. Um ponto e uma posição acima está o Leão.
This was the most goals Flamengo has scored in 1100 minutes.
Os dois gols do time da casa foram de Kleberson, o que prolongou o jejum dos atacantes para 1.100 minutos. Junior e Schwenck fizeram para os baianos.
This means we are really an offensive team.
Flamengo is offensive to the world and the eye all at the same time.
We need wins bucko not ties.
But a loss would have killed us.
Up next for Mengao is Gremio Prudente.
Prudente is currently in 19th place with 17 points.
Guys we need to win this sucker.
We are playing at Prudente’s house.
Flamenguista for life.

Liverpool was teetering on the brink of disaster. Birmingham had two sure; fire goals stopped stone cold by the Reds keeper Pepe Reina.
Reina stopped two point blank by Blues Cameron Jones and Craig Gardner to preserve a nil-nil tie with Birmingham.
This baby was played at Blues house St. Andrews.
Birmingham keeper Ben Foster made a few key saves too.
Liverpool is still hanging out in the lower half of the table.
The Reds have five points on one win, two draws, and one loss.
This is not good.
Fernando Torres is still finding his stride since retuning from the IR list.
Torres had one good attempt on goal in the 12th minute. His shot was just wide.
Chelsea is top dog with 12 points.
My guys from Arsenal are in second place with 10 points.
Manchester United is third with eight points.
Blackpool is fourth with seven points.
The Blues have given up just one goal so far this young season while scoring sixteen.
But let’s remember Chelsea has played the four teams that have a combined two wins and eleven losses between West Brom, Stoke City, Wigan, and West Ham.
The Red Devils have blown two fire road wins, which resulted in two ties. If this trend continues, Man U will not win the title.
My Gunners are playing well.
We have a road win and tie.
This road tie should have been a loss but an own goal by Liverpool saved our bacon.
The Seasiders are the biggest surprise of the EPL so far.
Blackpool has not played in the EPL since 1971.
Now the Seasiders have two wins are in fourth place with seven points.
More to come later so stay tuned.

My guys from Arsenal took care of business at our house Emirates. The Gunners blasted Bolton 4-1.
The win kept us clipping on the heels of leader Chelsea who blasted West Ham 3-1.
Yes, we played well but a blunder on the defensive end led to the Wanderers only goal of the match in the 44th minute by Johan Elmander.
Laurent Koscielny poor back header to the our keeper was responsible for the Elmander goal.
However, Koscielny’ s header goal in the 24th minute made up for this mistake.
We took the lead in the 58th minute on well-placed header by Marouane Chamakh.
The Wanderers Gary Cahill was sent off in the 64th minute.
Ten men ain’t gonna cut it against the Gunners.
Alex Song and Carlos Vela put the final nails in the Bolton coffin.
We are now in second place with ten points.
Another road match and another blown lead thus spelled doom for Man U.
After conceding the first goal, the Red Devils scored three straight goals to take 3-1 lead. Then all hell broke loose in injury time. The Toffees scored twice to kill Man U’s hopes of staying on pace with the Blues.
This sucker ended in a three all tie.
The mighty boys from Old Trafford fell into third place with eight points.
Man U sucks on the road.
Two road matches two ties not good garoto.
Wayne Rooney stayed home to straighten out his home life.
His absence may have effected the side.
It did at the outset but the Red Devils showed their mettle by taking a 3-1 lead.
Guys, you need to work on closing the deal.
Arsenal and the Red Devils are kissing cousins.
Why?
Both have trouble closing out matches.
Everton is a good squad but they are just missing that little extra something.
What?
I am really not sure.
The Toffees are in 17th place with two points.
This is in the drop-dead zone.
Two steps above stink.
Chelsea is playing great but lets remember the Blues are feeding on the little sisters of the poor.
The four wins are against Wigan, West Ham, Stoke City, and West Brom.
These sides have a combined two wins, 11 loses, and two ties.
This stinks.
Wait until the Blues get into nut the cutting time of their schedule.
Tottenham tied with West Brom one all.
The Spurs are off to a horrible start.
Tottenham has one win, one loss, and two draws.
Coming up on Tuesday for Harry and the boys is a Champions League match with Werder Bremen.
The big surprise of the day was Blackpool’s 2-0 win over Newcastle.
This makes two wins for the Seasiders this season.
Who would have thunk it.
Blackpool is in fourth place with seven points.
Oh, yes it is fun in the sun.
Toons had a rough go of it Moiré.

Chelsea will have a breeze against lowly West Brom.
This baby is on the road but the Blues should win hands down.
Man U battles bottom feeder Everton.
Man U has had struggles on the road but the Toffees have been playing like crap as of late.
Tim Howard is Everton’s only saving grace.
The team that is in the shits is Tottenham.
Spurs had a great season last year now Tottenham is finding what it is like at the top of the heap.
Spurs are in 11th place.
They have been not playing well.
Last time out Tottenham lost to lowly Wigan 1-0.
Now Spurs will have to play both EPL and Champions League at the same time.
Welcome to the world of Wenger and Sir Alex.
Get this Jermain Defoe was injured in a stupid match with Switzerland.
Reports have it that Defoe will be lost for six weeks.
Yo, futebol players it is time to revolt and form a players union to stop this insanity.
The players need to revolt against the EPL, Spanish leagues, Italian, French, and German leagues.
Strike and stand up for your rights.
Enough said on that.
