Premier League match 4/5/10

The last Premier League matches are being played. What are the results?

Blackburn 2-1 Arsenal

Oh dear. Now, I expected them to draw but they were so bad that they lost, at Ewood Park(Blackburn's stadium)? That's not so good. Meanwhile, next season Arsenal need to sign some good, world-class players so that they can compete against teams like Chelsea and Man. United. This season was another Chelsea-Man. United battle. Come on Arsenal.

Wigan 2-2 Hull

The only reason that this match is important was because if Hull won it, they kept the thin shard of hope that they possess of not being relegated. Otherwise, it's not important. Wigan will travel to Chelsea for their final match of the season, Hull play host to Liverpool. All-in-all I'm not that sad to see Hull go down.

Wednesday brings the final round of penultimate matches. Let's predict.

Fulham 2-0 Stoke
Man. City 2-1 Tottenham

Very interesting predictions by me, We'll see if they are right in the next issue.

Premier League matches 3/5/10

'Super Sunday' brought super matches and super results.

Fulham 3-2 West Ham
I'm very impressed by this result from West Ham. Fulham are not a very easy team to beat if you are West Ham, particularly if the match is away from home. West Ham put up a very good fight against the Europa League finalists and they deserve to be in the Premier League next season.

Liverpool 0-2 Chelsea
I watched this match. Both teams were asleep until Drogba got the opening thanks to a very risky Gerrard backpass. Then Chelsea pumped up the volume and started to show why they deserve to be champions, this eventually brought Chelsea goal number two from Frank Lampard. All in all, Liverpool didn't play well and they really need to do something special next season to push for the title.

Sunderland 0-1 Man. United
Chelsea would have won the Premier League that night had it not been for the fact that a Nani goal in Sunderland stopped them. I wished that Sunderland could hold Man. United to a draw but 'twas not to be. I'm still confident that Man. United will not win the Premier League. This year is Chelsea's year.

Monday brings more matches leading up to the big finale day next sunday.

Blackburn 0-0 Arsenal
Wigan 1-0 Hull

How will things work out?

Premier League matches 2/5/10

For most, today was the penultimate round of matches. How did it go?

Birmingham 2-1 Burnley
Birmingham played this match at home. As we know, Birmingham have a very good home record, and Burnley have a very bad away record. Hence the result, although I thought that Birmingham shouldn't have conceded that Burnley goal,

Man. City 3-1 Aston Villa
We've seen throughout the course of the season that Man. City are a better team than Aston Villa. Man. City are a better team. The one thing that Villa have to work on for next season is their away record so that it can match their superb home record. Man. City and Tottenham are the only two teams left in the fight for fourth now.

Portsmouth 3-1 Wolves
I didn't expect this. Wolves have been doing so well in recent matches and then they slip up at relegated Portsmouth? That doesn't make sense. Of course, Wolves are safe anyway, but it would have been nice to grab some extra points against Portsmouth.

Stoke 0-0 Everton
Stoke also have a very decent home record. They showed this against Everton. Everton also don't have the best away record. Stoke were able to hold Everton to a 0-0 draw because of this. As I said in my previous prediction, I expected a draw anyway.

Tottenham 1-0 Bolton
Tottenham kept up their part in the battle for fourth. Bolton also don't do well away from home. Someday I'd like to see Bolton get relegated, but sadly it won't be this season. I did however expect Tottenham to score more goals than one, but they at least got the three points.

'Super Sunday' brings super matches. Let's predict.

Fulham 2-0 West Ham
Liverpool 1-2 Chelsea
Sunderland 1-2 Man. United

Let's see what it shall bring.

Europa League matches 30/4/10

Sorry. Inibility to access the internet has caused the inability to post for a while, but I'm back and is there an all-english Europa League final?

Fulham 2-1 Hamburg (2-1)
This has just been a fairytale run for Fulham. They knocked out two German sides, the holders of the Europa League and a legendary Italian side on their way to the final. Fulham have pulled off miracles and should fly to Hamburg(also where the final will happen) singing 'when you believe' by Mariah Carey. Well done Fulham and I can't wait to see you in Hamburg.

Liverpool 2-1 Athletico Madrid (2-2) Athletico go through on away goal rule
Liverpool haven't had a good season at all. They went out of the FA cup, Carling cup and Champions League, they're now out of the Europa League and are 7th in the Pemier League, not even a place in next year's Europa League is guaranteed. Liverpool need to really rebuild their squad this summer and hope players like Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard don't leave.

The penulimate round of Premier League matches takes place this weekend. Here are predictions

Birmingham 2-0 Burnley
Man. City 2-1 Aston Villa
Portsmouth 1-2 Wolves
Stoke 1-1 Everton
Tottenham 3-1 Bolton

And there'll be more to come on Sunday and Monday.

Premier League match 22/4/10

Only one premier league match.

Hull 0-2 Aston Villa
With this result, Aston Villa showed that they're still in the fight for the last Champions league spot. Aston Villa have showed that they haven't thrown in the towel yet. Hull in the mean time, have to take points off their last three games in order to ensure safety. They need three points to go level with West Ham, and if they get points Hull will need even more. Hull are in TROUBLE.
Thursday sees the first legs of the Europa League semi-finals. Predictions.

Athletico Madrid 1-0 Liverpool
Fulham 1-2 Hamburg

British teams, I'm behind you all the way.

Premier League match 20/4/10

Just the one Premier League match today.

Liverpool 3-0 West Ham

This was no surprise. West Ham are dangling above relegation and Liverpool are starting to develop a decent home record. The result, a nice, comfartable 3-0 win for Liverpool. Well Done Liverpool. Will West Ham be able to get enough points to survive relegation in the next three games? Who knows?

On wednesday there is a match to be played at the KC stadium.

Hull 1-2 Aston Villa

Will Hull survive relegation?

Premier League matches 19/4/10

Eight goals were scored in the two games last night, who scored how many goals?

Portsmouth 1-2 Aston Villa
Portsmouth can't beat a team like Aston Villa at home. But, they can make the amount of points that Aston Villa earn as small as possible. Unfortunately for Portsmouth, Aston Villa took all three points, as they keep their fourth place hopes hanging by a thread.

Wigan 3-2 Arsenal
This a result that will go down in Wigan's history. Arsenal led 2-0 with ten minutes to go, and Wigan score three goals in the last ten minutes to see them take a giant step towards surviving relegation. WELL DONE WIGAN!!!!!!

Only one Premier League game tomorrow.

Liverpool 3-1 Wesdt Ham

Well, is Liverpool's fourth place battle still alive?
