The Crazy World Of Football

Weekend Game Wrap Up

(reference...see my picks in the articles below)

Saturday's game; win for Arsenal but lost the stupid Chelsea game. Arsenal was awesome, destroying Aston Villa like it was an exhibition show game. The touches and passes shows that they are back to their best.
On the other hand, I don't know what to say about Chelsea. They have basically a full squad and definitely the fire power upfront but just can't score. From what I see, there are two problems. The first one, Drogba; again I have to say, he is a waste of time. He is like non-existence, and there was no decent strike at the goal. Crespo definitely played better. This really puzzles me as to why Mourinho can't see this. Second problem; the forwards are not passing the ball around. They are too individualistic. Wingers are trying to hard to dribble pass the defenders from the wing and midfielders are walking straight to the Birmingham wall.
One simple fact about a team game is, if you don't play as a team, you will never play to your full potential.

Sunday was a good pick on Middlesbrough. They were able to win even with only one striker up front. So, two wins and one lost this weekend, not too bad lah.
