well well well
I think it's high time to restate my prediction from earlier this season. Manchester City will finish 10th and Chelsea will win the League. This weekend has proven to be in line with my predictions.

Back to a favorite subject: making fun of Liverpool.
You all know my love/hate relationship with Liverpool (and my soft spot for scousers apparently). I can't give up a chance to poke a little fun. It's so easy: over emotional, over sentimental with paranoid victimisation complexes. That said, when they're doing well (or beating Manchester United) I can't help but cheer them on a bit for the same exact reasons.
So football365.com has given some shocking stats with regard just how much trouble Liverpool are in.
Liverpool
* Only six Premier League teams - Burnley, Wigan, Birmingham, Blackburn, Hull and Portsmouth - have lost more league games than Liverpool this season.
* Liverpool have conceded twice as many goals as at the same stage last season.
* Fernando Torres has scored 45 goals in 68 Premier League games for Liverpool at an average of two goals every three games.
* Liverpool had 64% of the possesion at Fulham but managed only one shot on target - Torres' goal. ...
* Bottom club Pompey have conceded fewer goals than Liverpool this season.
It all makes one wonder just how long they'll stay towards the top of the table. Hull were doing brilliantly last year until December. Oh my god, Liverpool fans will persecute me for comparing them with Hull.
While tagging this post I realised I have a "Teams that will surely beat Liverpool" tag. Oh this is a long standing tradition round these parts.

14 Million Pound Waste of Space
Amateur golfer, karaoke ethusiast, and world renowned diplomat, Craig Bellamy scored for Manchester City on his debut yesterday. 
To me, this is the most hilarious thing ever. I wonder if he'll stay with City after we get relegated

English Premiership Clubs to play games abroad??
The 20 Premier League clubs are reported to have agreed in principle to a radical plan that would see each team playing an extra match a season abroad.--SkySports
Under the proposal, cities such as Hong Kong, New York, Los Angeles, Singapore, Sydney, Johannesburg, Dubai and Beijing would stage matches between two Premier League sides.
As excited as I am about the prospect of getting a match in the US, I can not help but think this is just one more nail in the coffin of English Football. Tom Hicks has said that he's bought Liverpool because of the tremendous television and internet deals involved. This is for marketing and money and that can only be a bad thing. Are they going to start Bye Weeks as well? Some of those cities above are horrible distance from England.
Jesus this is such a Bad Thing (tm)

Oh to be a Soton Supporter Today
Harry Redknapp is probably out of the picture for the England job you think?
I of course blame Willie McKay that asshole is just trouble. I've got his mobile number I wonder if he's changed it in the past year.
