You will be shocked to see how the top 3 unfolds !! [Barclays Premier League]





Here we are in the final stages of the league. BPL, as always has amused us this season too! First, it was the downfall of the champions CHELSEA and then the splendid run of the Foxes. With still 6 more games to go, this is the BEST part every premier league fan has been waiting for! So I have done the probabilities and permutations and have come up with some results. Let me discuss them 


Leicester City :




They are having their dream season so far, thanks for the brilliant team play exhibited by them. So far they have lost only three matches (2 vs Arsenal and 1 vs Liverpool) this season in the league. They are seven points clear of Tottenham at this point. Their remaining fixtures :

VS SUNDERLAND
VS WEST HAM UNITED
VS SWANSEA
VS MAN UNITED       
VS EVERTON
VS CHELSEA           

Of course it would be poor of my part if I say that I can predict the results because "Hello, we are in the Premier League dude.." But I can see them getting past through them. Both the United clubs will prove to be a tough club to win. But their final game against Chelsea may be the title changer provided they slip a little in the previous games. 

Out of their last six games, five times they have won 1-0. I repeat "FIVE TIMES". Its just that one killer ball or run that saves their ass's. So an upset can be expected. To be frank , as a neutral football fan I am looking for an upset, so that the final weekend will be lively...



Tottenham :


At last they have reached the top 3 and it is not FIFA ! With their quick counter attacks their pacey attacks are hard for any team to defend. Though they started the season on a losing note, they have lived up to the expectations for their fans. So are they poised to lift the title ? The remaining fixtures :

VS MAN UNITED
VS STOKE CITY     
VS WEST BROM 
VS CHELSEA        
VS SOUTHAMPTON
VS NEWCASTLE 

 Their also have challenging opponents but with a good run ,title is within range. But they must make sure that they never drop points. With seven points adrift its just three games that matters for Leicester but just one game for spurs. I can assure 4 three pointers, but the remaining games are gonna decide.


Arsenal :


The other London club in the upper deck. They have been really a consistent team so far in the league this decade. With Sanchez and Ozil coming in, they have become a little more powerful in the past 2 years. Just like Manchester United, injuries upset their season. At a stage, they were looking to secure the title but then slipped. (Gerrard, is that you ?) Still they have a fair chance of securing the title. The upcoming fixtures :

VS WEST HAM UNITED 
VS CRYSTAL PALACE
VS WEST BROM
VS SUNDERLAND 
VS NORWICH
VS MANCHESTER CITY
VS ASTON VILLA

They have been out of form lately, dropping 8 points in the past 6 games. With a game in hand,they are 11 points below the league leaders. Assuming that they win the next match, they are 8 points down with 6 matches to play, which is not impossible. 

For the people who are saying that the BPL is decided and over now, no it's not ! It's evenly poised and I am expecting an exciting finale. So the final verdict, uhh, prediction i mean :


  1. Leicester City
  2. Arsenal
  3. Tottenham Hotspurs
     So that's it for now folks ! Catcha later ! Take care ladies !

Marco Rues transfer news-Where is he destined to shine??

Well the season is about to end and the transfer window even though does not start officially till July most teams are keen to finish most deals  before the world cup begins.There are many rumors about Big players leaving their current clubs and one of the main man in these rumors is Marco Rues.





Marco Rues is a German footballer who currently plays for Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund.He has impressed many people and football fans with his speed,agility,technique.He has become a star and key player in Dormund's and Germany line up in the recent years.But as all players shine at their clubs now Rues is faced with the difficult question after Gotze left for Rivals Bayern and Lewandowski is due to join them in the summer ...DOES HE MOVE ON FROM DORTMUND??


Rues at Dortmund this season


Rues has been excellent this season and as the stats show he has scored 16 goals and assisted 13 in his 30 league starts.He has started in 9 Champions League  games and has scored 5 and assised 3 goals in them.This is excellent stats as he mainly plays as a winger  on the left side.Rues , Lewandowski  and Gotze are the reason of Dortmund' success in recent years

Possible Transfers for Rues 

The main reason these rumors started circulating was because Rues refused to answer all questions about his contract.But he did mention "EVERY PLAYER ONLY HAS ONE CAREER AND I WILL MAKE THE BEST OUT OF MINE".This has sparked rumors that Rues wants to move to a bigger club filled with fame and glory.

Manchester United



Manchester United are very keen on signing Marco Rues.They have sent scouts to watch him several times and also rumors indicate have held talks with his agent too. So United have also looking to make a overhaul of the entire squad and he is considered their prime target.He sure will get a first team place as United do not have any quality wingers.He sure will fit in the team due their conter attacking and pace play but the move depends on two questions here -Will Rues be content without a champions league spot?? and Will Man United pay more the other competitors?? If the answer to both is Yes then we may very well see him in United next season

Barcelona

Barcelona have joined the race for Rues late.They first seemed to have no interest in him but now they are one of the pole contenders to sign him.Barcelona may very well pay above the competitors but the question is "WILL HE ADAPT TO BARCA'S STYLE??".In dortmund he is used to fast pacy counter attacks,long balls etc.. Whereas in barca he would have to suit to slow passing game they play.If he does move and does not suit in then it would be waste of money for barca and waste of time for Rues.If he decides that Barca is his choice he better be ready to adapt to their style and forget all pacy counters.

Real Madrid 



This is tough decision for Rues to make as if he joins he will have to compete with Ronaldo and Bale two world class players for a spot in the team.Most likely Di Maria will be sold if Rues arrives but still if he is not then he is not sure of any game time.He will suit in well due to their counter attacking play and also likely will be paid high and also they will pay a hefty fee for him but GAME TIME is what is in the question now.

Bayern

At first everyone thought they would buy Rues also when  they bought Gotze and Lewandowski but Rues made a bold statement that Bayern will not have him at any price whatsoever.So this move has become a highly unlikely one.

So this transfer window Rues will have to make some hard decisions on his future.Will he make the right one for his future???....We will be bringing more news when we sniff them so stay tuned with us...

KEY PLAYERS

 BENFICA 



Benfica will be hoping that Garay their Solid Defender who has been in great form all season continues to be a rock for this match too and help Benfica stop Sevilla from breaching their defence.Benfica have conceded just four goals in their eight Europa League matches to date - three of which came against Spurs, with the tie ultimately over.
Garay's relationship with the experienced Luisao has been pivotal to that and the pair will need to be in-form to deal with hotshot Kevin Gameiro.


 SEVILLA 



Sevilla will be hoping that their In form play maker Ivan Rakitic can lead them to glory in the final.They will be backing on his red hot form and hoping that he continues it for the game.Rakitic has scored and assisted 3 goals each in this European Competiton and has also scored 12 goals in the La Liga competition.



HEAD TO HEAD STATS AND RECENT FORM

As the table shows Benfica are the favorites and rightly so as they are unbeaten in their last 10 matches while Sevilla have lost 2 and drawn 1 games in their last 10 matches.



The game promises to be a great thriller due to the form and the capability of both the teams.Lets see who wins the match and get their hands on the cup and also a Champions League birth next season....

Community Shield Preview - Manchester United vs Wigan Athletic

Hi Guys!All Manchester United fans will be excited as this is the first competitive match for Manchester United under the leadership of David Moyes the replacement to the Legendary Alex Ferguson who retired last season.This will be a thrilling encounter between the Barclays title holders vs the F.A cup Winners.



Preseason Form



Manchester United:


                                          Manchester United did not have a great preseason as they lost 3 games and won only 2 while drawing 2 games.They did not have a tough opposition but also they did not have their full strength squad as many were not present and opted for Rest and  have  some Injury concerns too.Moyes needs to get his play right and motivate the players and get their Morale up and get his hands on his First trophy at Manchester United


Wigan Athletic:


                                 Wigan have had a successful preseason as they won 5 games out of 6 while losing just 1 game which will keep their morale high. Eventhough they faced less powerful teams they stuck to their plan and bagged the wins.They also have the morale boost of winning the F.A cup against Man City the rivals of the Red Devils.'

Squad



Manchester United:


                                         The Red devils have some Injury Concerns to their players as they injured during the Preseason Matches.Nani will have a late test to determine his status and RvP will be back after missing the match against Sevilla and will look to boost the squad.Also Rooney is expected to take a light training and if he is available He will certainly add some firepower to the squad

Wigan Athletic:



                                 Wigan will be without the services of their captain Gary Cadwell who has picked up a Hip strain Ivan Ramies has picked a Knee Injury  and also without Thomas Rogne who will be out due to a Back problem.They have to manage this day without them. 

Predicted Line up



Manchester United:





De Gea is expected to be the goal keeper while  the defence is with Rafeal and evra as the RB and LB while Jones is to play as a defencive midfielder with Carrick as his partner while the Wing is to be armed with new Man Zaha with his speed and Welback/Valencia in the other side while Giggs/Rooney is expected to support RvP who plays as the main Striker.


Wigan Athletic:


                          
Predicted Line UP : Carson, Crainey, Perch, Barnett, Boyce, McArthur, Watson, McCarthy, Maloney, McClean, Holt


Manchester United are expected to win this match easily and take home the first trophy of the season but if the preseason results are anything to Go by they must work Hard to get this victory and Wigan will have to use all in their power to make it Difficult for the RED DEVILS to march home with the Title.




Match Time :

11/08/2013 Sunday 13:00 (GMT)

11/08/2013 Sunday 18:30 (IST)

Don't miss this Match !!

SO LET THE DRAMA UNFOLD.......

Can Cavani Climb the "Eiffel Tower" (PSG) ???

Hi everyone now im here to tell about the Fetching deal of "Psg" Who recently made a fascinating player leave his Club 
Can you guess him ?? Yep it's "Edison Cavani" !!! So now lets go into the ride .....





 Cavani (2012-13) :-

He has been a dramatic player in his last club (Napoli) and has scored "38" Goals in the past season (2012-13) and has shown a good performance and also he has shown a splashing performance in the " Brazil Confederations cup (2013) " and he has been always loved by the fans but now it's bad time for him to forget them all and now it's time to collect some fresh face's but will he ?? I guess he can !!!!





Skills :-

I guess you guys should have known his skills in free-kick because it's just Mind-Blowing and just makes us think " How did he do it !! ","Impossible" and more and he is the "17th best free kick taker in the world".And here is a example of a free kick which was taken by Cavani




And he has a nice finishing skills when we talk about penalties.He has tricked the goalkeeper to the core  and also he takes it very well.so if a penalty occurs they you should be known that it will be cavani who will go for it.




Transfer Bid :-

The bid that was on table for Cavani was "64 million euros" that is "$83.7 million" as you see this is the biggest bid ever by "PSG" and to the known Napoli accepted it !!! Well even i would have accepted it !! But this is a non-essential player to Psg because they already have Ibrahimovic who is one of the fine-forwards.



Will he make out of PSG :-

Now first look at the formation of PSG.And you yourself decide that will he suit here because as i said above he is a non-essential player for Psg but i dunno what did prick the manager to buy him !!!


And if it come's to the topic....I think he will make out of Psg because of the performance in Napoli. But What if he doesn't.Well the manager should think that the millions he paid  is just a vapour !!!! Or may be some one burned the money or just like some funny reasons !!!!!!


Wassup future :-

And as i say always if he plays well he deserve's it or if not as said above the money is a vapour.And we dont have a "Time machine" to see what happens next :(  so we have to wait for it but if you say "Its just boring to wait" then you must create a "Time machine" to see it :) :)



Entering the LIONS CAVE!-Right move for Gotze??

Mario Gotze who has joined Bayern Munich from Dortmund who are their rivals and Dortmund have also made a habit by creating good players  and selling them to their rivals.With Bayern already having 2 established Centre attacking midfielders can Gotze prove his presence at MUNICH??LETS SEE....


Mario Gotze Postion

He was born on June 3 1992. Former German Football Association's technical director Matthias Sammer describes Götze as "one of the best talents that Germany's ever had.Gotze  plays as a central attacking midfielder and is great at that position.His other postitions include the Left and Right wing.He normally is a great talent and is a product of Dortmund's Youth Facility.He has made a great name for himself as a CAM in  Dortmund

Gotze playing STYLE


Gotze is well known as a playmaker. He distributes passes to his team mates and also likes to go on the flank and deliver Pin Point crosses to his team mates in the box and has played as a false striker for Germany and also a Deep midfield role.

Dribbling,Sprint Speed and Crosses


Gotze is a great dribbler and has proved himself in Dortmund.He likes to go past defenders and challenges them on ONE-ONE situation.He likes to take on challenges and is a great threat when his team attacks.
 
He also has a great sprint speed.Even if the defender is near the ball he uses his sprint speed to get to the ball before the defender does.With his great Dribbling combined with his speed he is a complete attacking Midfielder.



Passing


He loves to pass the ball and also likes to assist his teammates in scoring goals.He always is ready to play the role of supporting player and uses his passing skills to a great advantage.He was the playmaker and main passer of Dortmund


Bayern Transfer

Gotze made a shocking request to Dortmund saying he wanted to leave them for Bayern munich. They tried to do everything by asking to stay and increasing his wages but he rejected their offer and said the reason he wanted to leave was not because of money but he wanted to play under the new Bayern manager Pep! 

Bayern finished the deal in April 2013, a €37 million bid from Bayern Munich triggered a release clause in Götze's Borussia Dortmund contract, making Götze the most expensive German player to date.

Will he fit in bayern??

The main players used Last season

4-2-3-1 was the formation followed by bayern which gave them victory in most of the matches.This formation is good for gotze as it has a Center attacking Midfielder.Also Bayern counter attacks efficiently which Gotze is a expert in.But the problem for him is that bayern has 2 established wingers in the form of  Muller and Kroos. He must prove himself to the new manager Pep(His favorite manager)and establish himself as first choice in Bayern.

Last season


Gotze played for Dortmond last season.These are his stats!!

Appearances-34

Goals Scored-12

Assists-14

Pass %-85%

Man of the Match awards-5

HE has scored an impressive 12 goals and 14 assists and his passing percentage of 85 % has been superb and difficult to achieve.He has also received 5 Man of the Match awards.


 Gotze has proven his talent in Dortmund and has improved a lot in his play.He will be a great addition to any team in the world especially Bayern.WIll he impress the new manager and cement his place in the starting eleven or will be warm the bench
???


                     ONLY TIME WILL TELL!! LETS WAIT AND WATCH!!
