Carson's talent wasted by Benitez?

2
Following the arrival of Brazilian Diego Cavalieri at Anfield and with Pepe Reina the Reds' established and undisputed number one goalkeeper, it looks increasingly likely that highly-rated Scott Carson will depart Liverpool for good this summer. With newly-promoted Stoke City... Click to continue reading...

New Goalie Stat - Quality Shots Faced

1
James.. 18 hour COD4 session before Man City game?

The quality shot metric is a useful tool for analysing goalkeeper performance. It rewards keepers who face a greater percentage of close range shots and penalises those who face a succession of hopeful long range efforts.

Scott Carson is one notable beneficiary of more accurately assessing the type of shots keepers face. Click to continue reading...

West Bromwich Albion vs West Ham United: Match Preview - 13/09/2008

1. Precocious Preview

There have been some momentous happenings in the world of football since our deceptive demolition of Blackburn Rovers a week ago last Saturday, none of which have revolved around West Bromwich Albion. Therefore, in a break from tradition (apart from when I did the same thing last week), this preview will be kept short. Click to continue reading...

Premiership Prospectus 2008/9 -- West Brom

0
Robert Koren...hirsute midfielder (hotshot variant)


2007/8 Review

West Bromwich Albion really should have won last season's Championship in a hack canter. Instead, they prevailed over Stoke City by a short head. West Brom had a goal difference of +33 and a shot differential of +223 -- a distance clear of the rest of the division in both categories. Click to continue reading...

Premier League new boys - Staying up or going down?

0
At the beginning of the season people around the country were saying West Brom would survive back in the Premiership reasonably comfortably, and that Stoke and Hull would struggle and no doubt "do one" straight back into the Fizzy Pop League. After all, West Brom had brought in Scott Carson, an England International (not that that says a lot these days) and had the likes of Jonathon Greening, Ishmael Miller, Roman Bednar and Neil Clement in their ranks, people who had well and truly proven themselves in the Championship, and Stoke and Hull, having never had Premiership experience in their history would no doubt struggle to realise what had hit them against the likes of the big 4.

Premiership Preview--5. Aston Villa

0
Aston Villa surprised many neutrals last season, and probably even some of their own supporters, with their 6th-place finish. In 2006-2007, the Villans checked in at a respectable 11th, a nice improvement from 16th the season before. Villa's emergence, led by manager Martin O'Neill, came with one of the smallest, if not THE smallest, first team rosters in the Premiership. Click to continue reading...

Barry Banks On Yanks

2
Gareth Barry's dream of finally joining Liverpool now lies in the hands of the club's American owners.

Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill has given up hope of keeping the England star at his club and told Rafa Benitez that Barry is all theirs.

But the Liverpool manager is now sweating over whether joint owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks will stump up the £18m needed to clinch the drawn out deal. Click to continue reading...

Yanks Cough Up To Keep Alonso?

The likelihood of Xabi Alonso leaving Liverpool this summer continues to decrease, with reports emerging that the club's American owners are preparing to top up the transfer kitty themselves.

What's Happened to Aaron Lennon?

1
With Tottenham's $30 million acquisition of David Bentley yesterday from Blackburn, it would appear that the meaningful tenure of Aaron Lennon, who was a boy wonder and the next big thing in English soccer just a few years ago, at White Hart Lane is over.

At 14, Lennon signed a cleat-sponsorship contract with Adidas, becoming the youngest player in Premiership history ever to do so. Click to continue reading...
