Aston Villa 1-0 Everton Highlights

by Joao on 29 August, 2010

Everton continue to disappoint as they fall to Villa in a poor match. All merit to Villa, who appear to have recovered well from their European woes, but looking at the Everton 11 you expect a lot more from them.

Sunderland 1-0 Man City Highlights

by Joao on 29 August, 2010

Big transfer giants Man City sunk before a well organized Sunderland side. Mancini’s men will be missing the number of lost chances but, in the end, it was a well struck penalty by Bent that set the final score.

It will be a hard result for City, who clearly still need time to come together as a squad.

Both teams unbeaten coming into this match, and both remain thus.

Wolverhampton 1-1 Newcastle Highlights

August 28, 2010

Wolves have successfully stopped Newcastle’s scoring spree and put up a very good fight. Obviously the Magpies need some work still, as they have not yet achieved a perfect balance in their team.
All in all, a fair result, and I will be hoping to see more of both these teams in the future.

Tottenham 0-1 Wigan Highlights

August 28, 2010

Tottenham were caught snoozing, or maybe their injury woes caught up with them. Truth is it’s these kinds of matches that almost proved costly last season and if they are to mount any sort of offensive in the League, Champions League and the Cups they definitely need to pull together as a team.

Blackpool 2-2 Fulham Highlights

August 27, 2010

An even match with a just result. Fulham are still trying to come to terms with the kind of football they’ll be playing post-Hodgson, and at times the players look a little confused.
Blackpool have got an interesting series of points, especially for a team that was, the press were saying, going to be close to [...]

Blackburn 1-2 Arsenal Highlights

August 27, 2010

Job well done for Arsenal in a match that saw the return of Cesc Fabregas and van Persie to the starting eleven. The game was pretty much even, as the tight scoreline suggests, but in the end Arsenal was able to pull together and really grunt it out.
Special mention to Theo Walcott, who scored yet [...]
