Arsenal - Full back Gael Clichy has today called upon his team-mates to find the consistency The Gunners so badly need in this years Premierleague campaign. He said they need to find "desire and attitude", to mount a title challenge this year. Arsenal have already been beaten 4 times this year and they really need to turn things around to keep up with Chelsea and Liverpool!!
Come on you Gunners!! I know you can!!!
Aston Villa - Defender Curtis Davies has said that Villa's win over Arsenal showed that they have the capability to break into the top four this year. ( yeah whatever Curtis)!! Villa set their stalls out early in the match and really put it up to Wenger's side. He went on to say that had Villa let Arsenal play football that they probably would have outplayed them but they stuck to Martin O' Neills plan and it payed dividends.
But however I am confident we will bounce back!!!
Blackburn Rovers - Blackburn's powerful striker Benni McCarthy will play this weeks friendly for South Africa against Cameroon. McCarthy had been unavailable at the weekend due to the funeral of his father Dudley. South Africa's manager said in a press conference that " The decision to play was totally up to Benni, we did not want to force anything upon him, but it gives us a huge confidence boost ahead of the game".
Bolton Wanderers - Not much action from the reebok this week although the Bolton reserves did record a big win over Man City to continue to maintain a title challenge.
Chelsea - Ivorian Striker Didier Drogba has recieved a 3 match ban following his coin throwing incident in the Carling Cup at Stamford Bridge. Drogba threw a coin which almost hit him back into the crowd. He later appologised for it.
I mean, how stupid of you Drogba, GET A GRIP!!!!
Everton - Midfielder Steven Pienaar has pulled out of South Africa's friendly this week with his knee. He had been left out by David Moyes against Middlesbrough but hasn't fully recovered yet.
Fulham - After Saturdays big win over Tottenham Roy Hodson really believes Fulham can stay in the premiership this season. He said that winning against Tottenham had really given them a morale boost ahead of the Liverpool game on Saturday and he reckons that with a few good results that Fulham can even reach a mid table or top ten spot.
(Keep dreamin Roy)!!!
Hull City - Hull midfield genius Geovanni was over the moon last weekend after he had cancelled out Steven Ireland's two goals against Man City. Hull went 1-0 up thanks to Cousin's early goal and then some sloppy defending gave Ireland his second of the game but late into the game Geovanni's specialist free-kick was deflected and sent past the Man City goalkeeper. Geovanni has been over-achieving this year as have Hull and I'm certain we will see them again in the Premiership next year.
To be Continued.....
