De Futebol
There is one day left before we begin EPL play. I can’t wait. Yes, I love Brasileiro futebol but my passion is the EPL.
So you can say I am an American with a Brasilian heart and the passion of an Englishman who loves watching the EPL.
My two passions are Brasileiro futebol, and the EPL.
My wife loves futebol but she would like to have a Saturday free of futebol.
Oh yea, my wife had that since May but heck, who is counting.
There are some huge opening round matches. Tottenham battles Manchester City on Saturday. On Sunday, Liverpool takes on my Gunners.
Sure, these are huge opening salvos.
The outcome may have a lot to say on who will win the title and be in the race for the Champions League spots.
However, when the durst settles the usual suspects, Manchester United, Arsenal, and Liverpool will battle it out for the EPL crown.
Yes, I did say the Reds.
Why?
Last year was a fluke.
A new manager will make all the difference but the only problem I see is the injury to Fernando Torres. Torres was last seen collapsed on the pitch in Spain’s last match- the finals of the World Cup.
His is world-class player and if Torres can’t play, Liverpool will struggle.
I think Spurs will be a mid table side.
Last year was a fluke for Tottenham.
Man City is a good squad but I think they will finish seventh or eighth.
I think Carlos Tevez is a head case. He is a great player but he hates playing for Roberto Mancini. Tevez will cause problems for Mancini.
How will this translate onto the pitch?
This is the sixty four thousand dollar question.
City will not compete for the title.
This is too much garbage in this clubs closet.
On Saturday, I will talk about my Gunners, Man U, and Chelsea.
Here is a hint.
The Blues are good but they are on a downhill slide.
The glory days are about over for Chelsea.
