Premiership Tidbits

Robin Van Persie
Without doubt the hottest and best player in the Premier League this season. After Henry departed four years ago for Barcelona, Gunners fans thought him irreplaceable. RVP is challenging that thought process. If he continues in this same pace till the end of the season, I would agree that he has attained a similar cult  following.


Emmanuel Adebayor
Arguably the transfer (loan) of the season. Manu has transform Tottenham into a top four and league title contender. Since his arrival, post the 1-5 drubbing at the hands of Manchester City, Tottenham has won 8 league matches in 9 games. Save for a Shola Ameobi late equalizer in a 2-2 draw with Newcastle, Spurs would have been a perfect 9 for 9. In fact, he's been so good that Arsene Wenger thinks it's unfair that he gets to play and score against other teams except Man City. He should have thought of that when he sold him to Man City for millions more than AC Milan was hoping to pay. Put a sock in it, Wenger!


Luis Suarez
Love this guy to death for what he does on the field. He represents everything Liverpool fans want to see in their players - fighting spirit. As more details emerge on his FA charge, I'm forced to admit that El Pistolero was wrong in his row with Patrice Evra. Regardless of if he thought what he called Evra was 'safe' enough to be harmless, it certainly wasn't said out of love for Evra. Therefore, it should rightly be perceived as condescending with racial undertones. He should apologize and will most likely get a 6 match ban.


John Terry
Like Suarez, Terry is a warrior adored by Chelsea fans. Like Suarez, he too was wrong. What he said to Anton Ferdinand  could not have been complimentary either. He should get equal treatment to whatever punishment is dished out to Suarez. Failure to do so would put the English FA in quite an odd spot.


Sepp Blatter
He's a d*ck, and an old one at that. Whoever thinks racism can be cured with a post-match handshake needs a doctor checking his vital signs. Condescending pr*ck!


Carlos Tevez
Brilliant on the pitch, brainless off the pitch. Tevez is a confused illiterate who can't handle being rich. He seemed better off when he was poor and hungry for the game. Stripping  him of all the wealth and banning him from the game should ensure he is on the path to poverty and happiness once more.


Mario Balotelli
Italian fruitcake.


Adel Taarabt
Another fruitcake, but less talented than Super Mario. Brain dead.
