By Rasmus Lukunka 17 February 2012 It’s hard to understand why so many people were surprised by the departure of Fabio Capello. He was initially heralded the saviour of English football before deeply disappointing and under-delivering in key matches; notably at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Upon the surface his record as England [...]

Ferguson Proves His Managerial Excellence
February 11th, 2012 Redkat By Ewan Day-Collins 11 February 2012 Manchester United and Liverpool is always a ferocious battle. Yet unfortunately both clubs have been clouded by toxic fumes of the Luis Suarez saga. But, through the ashes of that fateful Barclays Premier League match between the two clubs last year, one team and their leader has risen considerably. [...]

Reality Show: Manchester United FC Starring Sir Alex Ferguson
February 7th, 2012 Redkat By Rasmus Lukunka 08 February 2012 Love them or hate them, Manchester United are a special club and love him or hate him, Sir Alex Ferguson is an extraordinary manager. If Jose Mourinho is commonly known as ‘the special one,’ then Sir Alex should surely take the title of ‘the anointed one.’ How many managers [...]
EPL Update: Pretenders, Contenders, and Challengers
January 20th, 2012 Redkat By Rasmus Lukunka 20 Jan 2012 It was a thrilling first half in the Premier League. Only one manager, Neil Warnock of Queens Park Rangers, was sacked while Steve Kean at Blackburn survived. Chelsea and Arsenal looked shades of their former selves while newcomers Norwich and Swansea provided a breath of fresh air. Newcastle sold [...]
Chelsea’s Title Chances Over.
January 4th, 2012 Redkat By Ewan Day-Collins 26th December 2011 at Stamford Bridge Chelsea 1 (Mata, 47) Fulham 1 (Dempsey, 56) When Bryan Ruiz cut loose on the right, rounded a defender with superb skill then sent in an inviting cross that was tapped by Dempsey’s foot into the goal it was perhaps a portent for Chelsea. If it needed clarification the West-London side are now firmly [...]
When United Slip, Executioners Rejoice!
January 4th, 2012 Redkat By Rasmus Lukunka After a stunning start to the season, Manchester United has recently faced its fair share of challenges. These include an historic loss to their noisy neighbours who consequently leapt 5 points clear, a loss on home soil to Crystal Palace which dumped them out of the Carling Cup and the most shocking [...]
If Liverpool is Right – This Stand on Racism is a False Hope
December 24th, 2011 Redkat By Ewan Day-Collins 22nd December, 2011 Luis Suarez has been handed an eight match ban and a £40,000 fine by the FA this week for racially abusing Patrice Evra in a heated match between Liverpool and Manchester United. Yet, Liverpool FC, on their website, claim that not only will they stand by Suarez’s claim of [...]
Chelsea’s Progression is far more Significant than United’s Exit
December 12th, 2011 Redkat By Ewan Day-Collins 8th December 2011 at Stamford Bridge It was perhaps the most unlikely of outcomes of a Champions League week that, to many observers, looked to hold no real reason for anticipating excitement or surprise. Yet the outcome at the end of it read that Manchester United, last years’ losing finalist, failed to [...]
Long Balls, Hard Tackling, and Direct Play…Now That’s Beautiful!
December 12th, 2011 Redkat By Rasmus Lukunka I sometimes find it rather challenging to share my thoughts on certain views without expressing my irritation. This time I’m irritated by all the talk of how Barcelona’s style of play epitomized the beautiful game. I understand that I’m probably 1 out-of 1000 who dares to challenge what has become the status [...]
Wolves Win Takes Pressure Off AVB
November 28th, 2011 Redkat By Ewan Day-Collins 26th November 2011 at Stamford Bridge It was a good win. A win much needed for Andre Villas Boas, the Chelsea manager, after a horror run, including a last minute defeat mid-week in Leverkusen that could potentially jeopardise Chelsea’s Champions League safety. A man much maligned in some quarters, and even his most loyal supporters admitting he is under considerable pressure, [...]
