Chelsea FC

[Soccer Betting Tips and Odds - UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup, FA Cup and World Cup] Wright-Phillips, who is the son of former England striker Ian Wright, joined City's youth academy in July 1998 after being released as a 16-year-old by Nottingham Forest for being 'too small.' Wright-Phillips has been capped four times by England. He played over 150 league games for City since making his debut in the 1999-2000 season.

Thank You, Roy

[ ericsetiawan.com] With Rooney, Ronaldo, Rio, Ruud (hey, it’s 4 R) and the recent striker turned midfielder Alan Smith, I think United can have a bright future. But one questions must be thought by all United fans: who is United’s next captain?

Fletcher Shuts Keane (and Mourinho) Up

[Samsies - updated whimsically] No offence to the good people of the Red Devils Fan Club (Dead Poet, Mr Humji, and yellowhandman included), but I never fancied the boys from Old Trafford, even when they were complete losers in the late 80s with Jim Leighton (the crappiest goalkeeper to ever come out from Scotland, wait a minute, he’s the ugliest too, and someone pray tell what’s that white creamy kor-yok that he perpetually had on his right brow?) and company. It got worse when they actually started winning things at the turn of the decade, starting with their European Cup-Winners-Cup triumph in Rotterdam back in 91, and the rest of the story I think you already know.

Chelsea 0 - EPL 1

[Chelsea Rulz!!!] It’s no secret but all the other 18 teams were supporting ManU in yesterday’s game, cause Chelsea did have a 9 points lead over 2nd place Wigan and a win at Old Trafford would probably hand over the title to Chelsea some time in December. However it wasn’t to be, no problem let give those who believe they can win the premiership this year a fighting chance.

Gutter journalism

[yellowhandman] Just because there are no Premiership matches this week, and only a fairly meaningless friendly against the Argies, The Sun obviously felt the need to create some football stories of their own. Two, in fact.

Bayern says Bye Bye to Ballack

[Chelsea Rulz!!!] All this makes it quite obvious that the Bundesliga champions Bayern will sell Ballack in January transfer window. I personally think he would go between 10 to 12 million pounds, considering that he would not get to play in the Champions Leagues for either Real Madrid or ManU, not that they are going really far in the competition which already has Chelsea’s name written all over the Cup.

Keano

[yellowhandman] I had expected him to leave at the end of the season, but his leaving at this crucial point in the season, when we've just beaten Chelski but have a big game in the Champions' League coming up, suggests that something bad must have happened. The club's official statement included positive words from Keano, Fergie and Gill, but that's probably just PR.

Contrasting fortunes

[yellowhandman] Kobe came through with the clutch off-balance jumper with 0.6 seconds left (after missing a jacked-up jumper at the end of regulation), but the real story was Smush Parker's sensational debut as a Laker starter...Smush was on fire in the first half, and his 20 points and 6 assists was second only to Kobe's 33 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. From what I could hear on the live radio feed, the Lakers...
