FA Cup -11th/12th/13th March 2016

This past weekend was the quarter finals of  the FA Cup and Manchester United drew one all with West Ham. This means that there will be a replay in the next week or so.

Crystal Palace beat Reading by two goals to nil and this was a great win for Crystal Palace especially as they have not done particularly well in the premier league. 

The first surprise result of the weekend was Everton beating Chelsea by two goals to nil. I thought Chelsea would win however Chelsea are having an awful season so I guess it really not that much of a surprise. 

The second surprise of the weekend was Watford beating Arsenal by two goals to one. Arsenal where on track to win the FA cup for the third consecutive year. 

However it was not meant to be and Watford truly deserved this win. Arsenal had on eye on champions league game and it has cost them. This could be year of no trophies after two years of the winning the FA cup. 

2nd/3rd January 2016

The new year Premier League fixtures had again some predictable results. Arsenal beat Newcastle by a goal to nil and this was a good win for Arsenal who have started the New Year top of the league! 

Manchester City beat Watford by two goals to one  and this a pretty predictable result and I would have been shocked if Watford had won. 

Manchester United beat Swansea City by two goals to one and this was well needed win for Manchester United who seem to struggling for confidence. 

Liverpool lost by three goals to nil and this  was a bad loss for them. It was looking like they had turned a corner but this result highlighted the serious lack of quality in the team. 

Chelsea got a fantastic win as they beat Crystal Palace three goals to nil and this was much needed win however this win has made little difference in their league as they are still languishing in fourteenth position. 

Premier League - 28th/29th August 2015

This weekends premiership was definitely eventful to say the least. It probably started the premiership holders Chelsea losing by two goals to one Crystal Palace. 

Chelsea have had a truly rotten start and they are not firing on all cylinders and it is a big surprise I thought with all there amazing players they would have no problems. But somehow they are not clicking together. 

Arsenal were fortunate enough to beat Newcastle by a goal to nil and Arsenal are also struggling and have not found there stride yet. 

Last week Arsenal managed a nil nil draw with Liverpool and they had a lot of chance and this week they managed to beat Newcastle by an own goal and their win was not convincing. 

Manchester City are doing well they beat Watford by two goals to nil and they continue the start of the season with 100% wins. 

One of the shocks of the weekend was Manchester United losing  by two goals to one to Swansea City. Manchester United  have been doing reasonably well so I did not see them losing to Swansea City. 

Another big shock was Liverpool losing by three goals to nil to West Ham. However although it was a shock result, I suspected that Liverpool would struggle as losing two key players would impact on them and in my opinion Brendan Rogers as not replaced them. 

Now there will be a break for the international break and it will be interesting to see how they could come back from this break. 

FA Cup - Fourth round

The fourth round of FA Cup took place over the weekend and Arsenal beat Coventry City by two goals to nil.

It was a routine win for Arsenal who where up against a Championship side at home. It would have been a huge surprise if Coventry had got the win.

Arsenal are now becoming a lot more consistent, however they do have a very tough February month coming up. 

Liverpool beat Bournemouth FC by two goals to nil in a match that they where also expected to win. However they face Arsenal away in the next round. 

Chelsea beat Stoke City by a goal to nil and they face Man City in the next round. Man City where losing to Watford by two goals to nil but managed to win it by four goals to two.
