The headline match of the weekend is Manchester City and Arsenal. These two sides are locked in a battle for the top three spots in the EPL.

City is coming off a huge win last weekend over Blackpool while my guys from Arsenal are coming off a hard fought win over Birmingham.

This is a must win for us if the Gunners are to keep in touch with top dog Chelsea.

Chelsea has 19 points while we have 14 points.

If we lose and Chelsea wins this will drop us seven points off the pace.

Chelsea should win against Wolverhampton on Saturday at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues are almost unbeatable in their house.

Another walk in the park for Chelsea.

City has 17 points.             

Man City is playing great futebol.

City beat Chelsea already this year at their house City of Manchester Stadium.

Our road struggles are well documented.

The guys from Gunner land have one win, two ties, and a draw on the road this season.

We have scored four goals on the road and have given up five.

Tevez maybe unhappy at City but his performance on the pitch doesn’t reflect his unhappiness,

He is kicking ass and taking names.

Tevez is the top twine ripper with seven.

He is on fire.

We have to smoother him.

“D” is the key.

Cesc Fabregas is another key.

His return will help bolster the Gunners attack.

Fabregas is the QB.

He is like a Peyton Manning.

Fabregas pinpoint passes and easy flowing style will create lots of scoring opportunities for Arshavin, Marouane Chamakh, and Samir Nasri.

Manchester United is in a must win situation as well.

The Red Devils need to beat Stoke City on Sunday at the Potters house.

Man U hasn’t lost a match all season but the mighty boys from Old Trafford have let four leads slip from their grasp and allow sure wins to turn into draws.

This is not good.

Stoke City is currently in 9^th place with 10 points.

Gunner nation rules.

My guys from Arsenal almost took it on the chin at home against Birmingham. Yes, the Gunners pulled out a hard fought come from behind 2-1 over the Blues at Emirates.

An almost great goal in the first half by the Gunners Andrei Arshavin was ruled offsides in the 19^th minute.

The Gunners “D” stunk the joint out in the 33^rd minute. Nikola Zigic nailed a perfect shot that beat the helpless keeper Fabianski to give Birmingham a 1-0 lead.

Then a controversial penalty in the 41^st minute leveled this sucker up at one all.

Samir Nasri hit the PK.

Marouane Chamakh nailed the match winner just the other side of half time (47^th minute) to lift the Gunners to the win.

Jack Wilshere won the dumbest futebol player award when he was given the heave-hoe in the 90^th minute.

This stupidity could have cost Arsenal big time.

Thank God for small favors.

This was a huge win.

This stops our home losing streak at one.

Gunners lost at home two weeks ago when West Brom took it to us 3-2.

This fiasco happened on September 25^th.

This win moves Arsenal into second place.

Man U blew a two-goal lead at home and wound up with two all tie against West Brom.

This is the second time the Baggies have sent the home side home unhappy.

First at Arsenal now at Old Trafford.

Albion is now in 6^th place with 12 points.

The Red Devils are in third place and can slip to fourth place if Man City beats Blackpool on Sunday.

 Chelsea struggles on the road continue. The Blues and Aston Villa tied nil-nil at Villa Park.

Chelsea had their to chance win it in the final moments when Nicholas Anelka just missed the winner. The shot went clank off the crossbar in the 89^th minute.

This may cost the Blues the title.

Man U is stinking the joint out.

Arsenal almost did but we pulled out the win.

We are missing our playmaker Cesc Fabregas.

Rumor has it Fabregas wants outta here.

We will see.

Oh Yeah, Tottenham defeated Fulham 2-1.

Spurs Tom Huddlestone hit the match winner in the 63^rd minute.

Hold on to your horse. Wait a minute; the ref Dean allowed the goal after an assistant ruled Tottenham’s William Gallas was offside.

The entire joint went bananas.

The EPL is alive and well with a ton of crazy stuff that continues to happen.

This is why futebol is so much fun to watch and write about.

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 9^th 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 34^th minute.

He nailed a perfect strike.

Andrei Arshavin ripped a winner in the 30^th minute.

Fabregas added his second goal in the 53^rd minute.

Carlos Vela hit for the daily double too. He found the back of the net in 69^th and 83^rd 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.

This was one of those classic blowouts. Arsenal flat out took it to Blackpool 6-0. Theo Walcott pulled a hat trick out of his hat.

Finally, Walcott lights up the twines.

Diaby, Arshavin, Marouane Chamakh each added their names to the score sheet.

About time guys.

Emirates is very good to us Gunners.

This was a kick ass win.

You gotta love it.

I sure do.

Blackpool came crashing down to earth after the Seasiders huge win over Wigan last Saturday.

Blackpool will probably get sent packing at the end of the season.

Arsene Wenger decided to rest super stars Cesc Fabregas and Robin Van Persie.

Smart move on Wenger’s part.

The young guns are coming along quite nicely thank you.

Spurs are finding life hard at the top of the table.

Tottenham pulled out a 2-1 win over Stoke City.

Gareth Bale hit for the daily double.

Bolton chewed up West Ham 3-1.

West Brom stopped Sunderland 1-0.

Everton and Wolverhampton tied one all.

The Toffees are stumbling out of the gate.

Everton has one draw and one loss.

This is not good.

Chelsea kicked some major butt in a blow city 6-0 shut out of win over helpless and hapless Wigan.

Nicholas Anelka and Salomon Kalou each hit for the daily double.

The Blues looked good in their first two matches against inferior sides. Lets see what happens when Chelsea gets into the meat of their schedule.

The Blues may win the whole enchilada this year but they are on the downhill side of forty.

It’s August. This means the EPL is two weeks away. Kick-off begins August 14^th.

My guys from Arsenal played in the Emirates Cup in London.

The Gunners and AC Milan tied at one all.

We started a very young lineup.

The clown in goal was Fabianski.

He did okay.

Jack Wilshere, Andre Arshavin, and Tomas Rosicky started up front.

Samir Nasri and Emmanuel Eboue anchored the midfield and Thomas Vermaelen was rock of the back line.

The surprise of the match was Marouane Chamakh knocked home the bacon in the 36^th minute. Chamakh sent the ball right through the keeper’s wickets.

Arshavin set this baby up with a great pass.

AC Milan found the equalizer in the 76^th minute.

Brasilian the Duck Pato headed home ball. Buda bing buda boom it’s in the back of the net.

Next up is Scottish side Celtic.

Celtic and Lyon tied two all.

All of this action takes place at the Gunners house Emirates.

Lyon jumped out a huge two nil lead before the guys from Scotland scored twice in the final ten minutes to tie this baby up at two all.

These two goals broke the hearts of the French side.

I love it.

The cheating frogs get it shoved back in their face.

Sao Paulo finally won.

Tricolor  stopped the bleeding at Morumbi with a 2-1 over Ceara.

This was Sao Paulo’s first win six matches.

Tricolor had four loses and one draw entering into today’s play.

The win move Sao Paulo to ninth spot in the table.

Tricolor has 15 points.

Fluminense defeated Atletico-PR 1-0.

Washington scored the match winner in the 21^st minute.

Atletico-GO and Guarani tied one all.

Sunday will be a fun one. This is the derby special day Vasco-Flamengo and Palmeiras-Corinthians.

I love it

Flamenguista for life.
