Wee bit about week 12, EPL


Another week in EPL and interesting results all around. Of course, i would like to start with Liverpool's win over Chelsea- away. I was glad to see King Kenny put Maxi to start, as I said before many times- Suarez and him just click well, something Carroll was not able yet to deliver. As commentator from LFC said about Maxi "he is a goal scoring machine, that's 8 goals in 4 last appearances" I think that just says how well he plays with Suarez. Another smart choice was Bellamy. He has produced goals in his appearances, he is strong and fast and moves ball forward- that's an attacking option we need. Kuyt did not impress in his this appearance but did not disappoint either. Overall the line up was very good and though in second half everyone seemed pretty worn out and it looked like Chelsea was going to teach LFC a lesson, Johnson came with a wonderful winner and the victory was sealed. Now fans hope that the magic lasts and we can repeat this performance with Mancini's men. Though our record away is surprisingly much more impressive than home count. All talks about Vilas' resignation are unnecessary, Abramovich is impulsive but hopefully he is not stupid and will let the young Portuguese work with the team and try to get their so desired UCL Cup.

Arsenal seems to be back and kicking. Besides that fact that RVP is a scoring machine and in a good form, it also seems that everyone else in the team have stepped up the game. Whatever virus caught them early in the season and gone and cured. I still think that Wenger needs a better defensive coach for his team, because the only defensive quality they have is their young goalkeeper who becomes better and more skillful from game to game.

Tottenham is scaring me and other because they are the team which have played one less game but somehow they find themselves third in the table, and that says something about strengths of their squad. Impressive and I wonder who will stop them from going up, because there are lot of contenders for those 4 spots up top.

Everyone is watching Manchester City and it feels as if they wrote off Manchester United. I would like to say - not so fast. It would be silly to disregard the best team in the league. Sir Ferguson is dealing with the newer squad and a new goalkeeper- plus they were hit with injuries but I think that they can come back better and stronger than ever. It's good to see Chicharito back and in form, things will happen- so stay tuned.

And now, I have to go and work. Looking forward to watching AC Milan vs Barcelona game. A lot is at stake and I think that the only team who has nothing to loose and should go all forward is AC Milan. This is gotta be an interesting battle. All bets are on Barca, can a girl dream?
