No kidding. Not that sacking Moyes is the answer, but if they're still around 10th in the table come November, you've got to think it'll be talked about.

Also, Arsenal have been on fire. Can't wait to get Cazorla back and really put the pedal to the metal :)

Sunderland is terrible. Jozy and the EPL just don't go together.

I said that was a terrible move from the beginning.

Crew staying ever-close to an MLS playoff spot. Good win last night against FCD.

Fixed.

I hate flopping, but it happens in every sport.

What a fucking joke. Fifa is a sham (and always will be).

I hope they do. I do NOT want to see City or Tottenham in the top 4.


Chelsea
Liverpool
United
Arsenal

would be my favorite (of the real potentials)

Chelsea escapes at Norwich City, 3-1. Really entertaining game. Back and fourth and tied late in the match 1-1 with Norwich having some great chances. Then off a bad Norwich corner, Chelsea capitalizes and Hazard capitalizes on a terrible defensive clearance to make it 2-1. Willan with a fantastic strike in stoppage time made it 3-1.

I work with a guy from Albania. He's been raving about Janzaj. He's still mulling his decision for his national team...Belgium or Albania. Not a chance in hell he chooses Albania.

He'll play for Albania if they make the WC Finals (very slim chance- 3 points out of 2nd in the their group). He's not good enough to get on Belgium for this world cup and I bet he'll want to play if Albania makes it there.
