One Sided Affair in Milan

The Milan derby always looks to be competitive. Inter Milan and AC Milan are giants of the Italian football world (Serie A), but with AC’s recent financial struggles, the club has been forced to sell their star player and former world footballer of the year, Kaka. His replacement was sitting in the wings, or so they assumed, with Brazilian teammate Ronaldinho placed as Kaka’s successor, albeit he is older and not the player he once was.

Yes, it might be early, but if you look at the table today those are the same two teams you will see at the top come March. Both Rangers and Celtic have been on the tops of the Scottish Premier League for years now ,and this year will be same. Last year the race for the SPL title came down to the last day, as Celtic drew, 0-0, to Hearts and Rangers defeated Falkirk, 1-0, to seal their SPL title and ruin Celtic’s chance at four-in-a-row.

Arsenal v Manchester United at Old Trafford

The season’s first clash between “The Big Four” in the English Premier League was between the scorching Arsenal and slow-starting Manchester United. This looked to be Arsenal’s game, they came in firing on all cylinders and Wenger has his club playing the type of football we expect from the Gunners, even with the losses of Adebayor and Toure to Manchester City. Wegner is the master of the small transfer window and making good with what he has.

On the other side was Manchester United. United lost the newly promoted Burnley this season and is still searching for the perfect fit in their line-up. With the sale of Ronaldo, the moving on of Tevez (to cross town rivals Manchester City) and the injury to Rio Ferdinand, it seemed this was Arsenal’s chance to catch the Red Devils off guard.
