The season got underway today with a fascinating game between Spurs and Sunderland - wasn’t really a high quality game, and both teams looked rusty. What stood out for me was Sunderland’s determination to not make it easy for Spurs. McShane in particular was brilliant in defence, and there was only one major weak moment […]

It’s Sunday, and barbershops across India will have more words in the air than hair on the floor. Talking about this.
Some might take solace from the fact that Pakistan have crashed out too, but I wouldn’t bet on it. For the last two months, TV channels have sidelined important issues (like the Iran situation) for […]

Been a while since I wrote about football…and this is interesting. Roy Keane’s taken over as coach of Sunderland…not that Mick McCarthy did much. Given the history that Keano’s had with Mick, I’m sure he’ll push himself to do better.
What’s in Keano’s favour? He’s passionate about winning, and hates to lose. The windspeed in the […]
Man, I love YouTube! In sure you must have seen clashes between opposing teams in football, but this is something else:

Germany look as if they’re afraid to give Argentina any space to move forward, and playing as negative as they are, not taking many risks with tackles, they’re allowing Argentina to dictate terms and control around 80% of the pitch. Tevez and Riquelme are particularly impressive and Sorin is getting in some impressive pushes in.

To be honest, I can’t think of a tactic or a formation to beat Brazil, and I wonder if any manager can, when faced with a team that plays so instinctively, and with such fluidity; as I write this, Ghana is a goal down against Brazil and Cafu, a right back was just in the […]
Q1. Watch the following video and fill in the blanks:
Fabio Grosso is a c__t (Hint: Not cleat, and not a cuss)
The ref is b___d (Hint: Bold could suffice, but not quite).
Yep. That goal. Audacious and magical.
