Game Over for Manchester United?

It was just a week ago,when Roberto Mancini declared the race over for the Barclays English Premier League.Things have changed & how! The Citizens find themselves in pole position having a far superior goal advantage.
It finished Manchester City 1 - 0 Manchester United in a "Not so living up to the billing" Manchester Derby.
Vincent Kompany was the Matchwinner for The Citizens with his towering header in the waning moments of the first half.

Sir Alex Ferguson's decision to play with a lone striker in Wayne Rooney paid few dividends & produced almost nothing.
In stark contrast,these two clubs have failed in every other competition out there searching for Premier League glory.Now,City has the splendid opportunity to turn the color of the sky blue from red.

In the 76th minute,there was a scuffle of sorts with  an exchange of words between Roberto Mancini & Alex Ferguson.Nigel de Jong,got his legs tangled around United striker Welbeck in what looked like a harsh tackle.

Manchester City's next two games are against Newcastle United & Queens Park Rangers.The equation is simple.Get the 6 points and take home the Premier League.The future looks bleak for Manchester United for all the dominance they possess,they are hardly able to challenge for the UEFA Champions League,or the FA cup/Carling Cup.Thus,a worrying point.

The story is definitely not over.Unimaginable twists and turns have hit the Premier League this season & one can expect the same in the remaining two games which decide the Barclays English Premier League Title.

#Football.Pride.Glory.

The 20 yr old was over used last season and thereby he developed a stress fracture in the England's friendly against Switzerland.

I told you the next three weeks would be decisive. Now we have two weeks in front of us and I cannot tell you more. I will not take any risk with him.

Jack Wilshere has not featured for Arsenal since 31st of july, coming off as a substitute against New York Red Bulls in the Emirates Cup. Arsenal entertain Wigan Athletic on Monday night.

Potential Champions !!

ENGLAND

It all looks like Manchester United are really going to win the record 20th title in their Rivals territory (Manchester City), who were the Champions Elect by many Pundits at the start of the season. With City's form poorly faltering their hopes finishing second will be under intensified pressure with Arsenal slowly starting to breathe down their necks who perhaps had a bitter season, but one to savour.

PREDICTIONS:

1.Manchester United - 93

2.Manchester City - 85

Golden Boot: Robin Van Persie

SPAIN

Real Madrid at one stage were 10 points clear of their long standing precarious rivals, Barcelona. But that lead got slender and now they are sitting merely four points. With El-Classico around the corner, the potential champions will be decided at the Camp Nou. Will Real Madrid break Barcelona's Hat-trick of triumph or will Barcelona do Four out of Four in Pep Guardiola's reign. 

PREDICTIONS:

1.Real Madrid CF - 97

2.FC Barcelona - 93

Golden Boot: Lionel Messi

ITALY

Serie A has so far been a up and down season. No team were consistent enough to pursue the Summit. But it all seems to be Juventus are rejuvenated and with Milan's hopes faltering down, the Old Lady are looking all set to be crowned Italian Champions for the 28th time and only after 9 years. Milan have a pretty congested fixture compared to Juve who have a easy run-in. Seven straight wins will earn them the championship for a record 28th time.

PREDICTIONS:

1.Juventus - 84

2.AC Milan - 83

Golden Boot: Zlatan Ibrahimovic

GERMANY

With Bundesliga season almost nearing its ends, the clash between the potential suitors proves to be vital for their respective Fans. Indeed Borussia Dortmund vs Bayern Munchen will surely decide this season's Bundesliga Champions. A victory there, would put one hand on the Trophy for Dortmund which could see them make two in a row. But Bayern Munchen have no easier job to do. The Run-in is very congested, between which they play Real Madrid twice and potentially a banana peel VfB Stuttgart.

PREDICTIONS:

1.Borussia Dortmund - 81

2.Bayern Munchen -76

Golden Boot: Mario Gomez

FRANCE

Its a place where Lille OSC won the league title last time around. But this time around they are no where near. Montpellier have surprised all by a scintillating performance in this league campaign, propelling the odds against the money baggies PSG. Lille are many points adrift so the race will be between PSG and Montpellier. But with PSG's standards and Montpellier's tough games upcoming it would be PSG who will be holding the edge in the end.

PREDICTIONS

1.PSG - 82

2.Montpellier - 80

Golden Boot: Olivier Giroud

NETHERLANDS

Ajax are all set to make two in a row with a desperate performance in the coming weeks. AZ-Alkmaar will be having one final push for the title by stopping the reigning champions doing back to back league titles. But FC Twente is also not out of contention. Its a three horse race to the finish unlike the other countries in Europe. Ajax have already done it 30 times, now they really want to make it 31 on the Bounce. 

PREDICTIONS:

1.Ajax Amsterdam - 76

2.AZ Alkmaar - 73

3.FC Twente - 68

Golden Boot: Bas Dost

Carroll on the way out !!

Reports have surfaced that Liverpool are ready to sell striker Andy Carroll.

The Sunday Mirror reported that last Sunday, on his return to Newcastle, Carroll ­delivered a torrent of abuse as he stormed straight down the tunnel after being subbed. Reports says that he was involved in a F-Word rant with King  Kenny after that substituition.

Manager Kenny ­Dalglish has ­insisted that reaction has been dealt with. But a report revealed: “Kenny has gone out of his way to protect Carroll from criticism. He’s straight with his staff, but many people here are concerned that players like Andy have not adapted to the Liverpool way.”

He is seriously having a dismal run in after that big money move from the toons last winter. He simply has not adapted to the Anfield conditions and a move away could well be on the cards.
