Let’s face it, Oasis went downhill after their first two albums, although that hasn’t stopped them making shedloads of cash from recording several dud albums since and going on a string of tours. Their success has elevated the Gallagher brothers into stardom, and one of them has exclaimed his delight upon hearing about his club’s […]

Tottenham end the summer considerably richer from a financial point-of-view, yet poorer in the sense that no trace of last season’s prolific strike-pairing exists at White Hart Lane. Losing one of their star forwards would have been hard for the fans to take, but both disappearing out of the exit door has been a kick […]

Recent events at Eastlands have been very sudden. This time a week ago, Man City’s financial situation was unclear (remember the story about SWP having reservations?) and the club were on the verge of being eliminated from the UEFA Cup. Now, they have godzillions of pounds to spend on new players thanks to their latest […]

The world of Premier League football has been crazy for some time, although it’s reached new heights in the past few days. That’s because the Abu Dhabi United Group have decided to buy a new football club and, after a careful game of ‘eenie meenie miney mo’, Manchester City are the chosen one. To say […]

While the blue half of Manchester failed with an audacious bid of £35 million for Dimitar Berbatov on Monday, they managed to pinch Robinho from under the noses of Chelsea, something which will no doubt irk Peter Kenyon and Roman Abramovich. The Red Devils have landed the Bulgarian striker for £30.7 million and we ask, […]

In the end, the Red Devils got their man, although not without a scare as Manchester City tried to hijack the deal that would eventually see Dimitar Berbatov move to Old Trafford for just under £31 million. Despite City probably offering a whole heap of cash to the player if he chose to arrive at […]

To be honest, the Reds haven’t been very good this season, although they’ve shown enough killer instinct to enjoy a solid start in the Premier League and ensure that they’re in the Champions League group stages. Their next challenge is trying to beat Man United at home, although you might not back them without this […]

While the likes of Jonathan Woodgate have tried to put a positive spin on things, claiming that Dimitar Berbatov’s unsettled status has not affected things too much on the pitch, it’s clear that the Bulgarian’s desperation to get away from White Hart Lane can only have had a detrimental effect on the club as a […]

That’s what a certain newspaper is claiming today in typically overblown fashion. While it’s common to see clubs withdraw players ahead of international friendly matches (Sir Alex Ferguson has made this into an art form), it’s less common to see them do this for World Cup qualifying fixtures.

Congratulations to Dimitar Berbatov, who has now overtaken Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Barry as far as newspaper column inches are concerned. All was quiet on the Bulgarian striker front in the early part of the summer, leaving him with plenty to do in order to overtake his Premier League counterparts. However, a big strop ahead […]
