Ole ole ole ole.....


Yesiree the EPL season has started again. Where better to watch the kickoff than in London right?

I was fortunate enough to have been on duty there the weekend past, and so managed to catch all the matches played by the top 4 teams. I had to settle for watching them on cable in a pub, but the atmosphere and a couple of Guiness made up for it.

Manchester United are hungry for the title this season, and have the means to do so too in Ruud & Roo. Liverpool too wants to improve on their positioning, though for how long they can depend on Stevie is anyone's guess. The Chelski abomination marches on, inflating the transfer market in the whole of Europe, while buying up every emerging talent there is at obscene prices. Arsenal still plays their style of free-flowing football. I feel that this is their season to rebuild upon their youth players, but they should have a decent finish.

It's just the beginning, and like some bookies say; the ball is round, anything can happen...
