Counter attacking is as good of a strategy as others.

Annoying maybe, but very effective at times.

It’s extremely effective but I want to be entertained ... that’s why I enjoy watching Barca , La Liga in general, Liverpool , Arsenal and to a slightly lesser extent ManC

West Ham are averaging more possession a game than Arsenal and have scored ten more goals

Arsenal haven't been entertaining to watch in years

Last time Arsenal was good was when they had Thierry Henry as their striker.

Watford made their first signing for next season

Sparta Rotterdam goalkeeper Maduka Okoye for 7 million, for remainder of this season though they will send him back to Sparta on loan

Mmmmmm StevieG to Villa is supposedly close ..

That has to be a risk if he really wants to manage Liverpool in a couple of years .
Two difficult matches to start with in Brighton then Palace

You may as well ban corners from the game if that incident is a foul on the keeper.

Times have changed ... it’s just a variation on the blocking off of a defender tactic

Manchester United are confident that they can make Brendan Rodgers their next manager.

The Leicester boss has a clause in his contract letting him leave if a member of Europe's elite makes an approach.

(Source: Daily Mirror)

Could be absolute Bollox as it’s the Faily Mirror BUT Rodgers is the massive favourite with bookies apparently

He still got Leicester an FA Cup, which if we're being honest Man Utd would kill for that right now.
