Girl chase on China Football Team

Friday, March 26th, 2010

Came accross a photo the other day just looking for the best looking womens football team, in all honesty, as much as they are likely to be able to arm wrestle Kenwyn Jones and win there must be some teams in the world with some big-time female athletes in it.

Again with some honesty just fit girls in football shirts is the future and i wanted to see some talent.

Don’t ask me what led me to begin my quest for the holy grail in china-well some asian chicks are hot so i thought i’d blast the google image search for that first-i found this.

chase into the shower.

chase into the shower.

I think the caption should be on the picture-last one into the showers gets teamed first.

Wishful thinking……. nah, into the w**k bank that goes.

So just who do you think has the fittest girly football team in the world, post your thoughts and opinions here guys and gals.

The greatest ever african player

The greatest ever african player

Greatest Italian Football ClubFC Monaco France footballkallon_fc

With all the talk about South Africa and the up coming FIFA World Cup its easy to forget that Africa is a west place! Plenty of funny and bizarre things happen in Africa and one story that really tickled me this week was about Mohammed Kallon.

Remember him? Yeah thats right, the former Inter and Monaco forward and on of the hottest young players of his generation. Well he failed so badly that not only did he go back to Sierra Leon but set up his own club and made himslef Chairman, Manager, Captin and of course main man! Just when i thought that was west enough, he comes up with a perfect name for the club. Yes you got it! FC KALLON!!!! Mint, i love africans, always good for some entertainment. But the best part is, that his club was so rubbish….despite him still being by far the greatest ever player to come out of there (if not the greatest ever human) he sold himself to a Chinese club! I hope they know what they are letting themselves in for out east!

DERBY COUNTY, THE FIFTH BEST TEAM IN ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE (EPL) HISTORY

Sunday, June 7th, 2009

Manchester United BadgeArsenal BadgeChelsea BadgeLiverpool BadgeDerby County

As bizarre as this sounds Derby County actually have a good case for being ranked as the fifth best team in EPL team to have played in the EPL since its inauguration in 1992. This is based on two statistics in particular. Points scored per game and goals scored per game in the EPL.

Derby County have only spent 4 seasons in the EPL and in that time, well they have hardly set the league on fire. Especially the last season they were in the league (2007-08) where a measly 11 points scored and 1 victory became the lowest ever points total in EPL history!

But the reality is that when an All Time Premier League table is constructed. Derby County out score all but the ‘Big Four’ in points per game! In incredible 1.651 points per game is only bettered by Liverpool (1.764), Chelsea (1.793), Arsenal (1.892) and of course Manchester United (2.141).

I’m not too sure but I reckon how many points a team scores per game in a league system is the best statistic to look at when comparing how good a team actually performs in a league system!

Even more amazing is the goals per game ratio held by Derby County in the EPL, they actually break into the ‘Big Four’ and rank as the 3rd best scoring team ever in the EPL. With a ratio of 1.63 goals scored per game only Arsenal (1.70) and Manchester United (1.96) out score the midlands team.

So before all the Everton, Tottenham, Newcastle, Blackburn or Aston Villa fans start crying about their teams being the biggest challengers to the ‘Big Four’ just have a good long look at the top 5 teams in the EPL All Time Table for points and goals scored per game, and tell me that if Derby were to be promoted again that they are not the biggest threat in terms of points and goals scoring.

Key to the table: Shaded name= no longer in the EPL; GP= games played; GF= goals for; GA= goals against; GD= goal difference; GS/G= goals scored per game; GC/G= goals conceded per game; P= points; P/G= points per game

STEVEN GERRARD IS WORLD CLASS!

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

Steven Gerrard

As mental as it seems to me, Steven Gerrard is still debated about as not world class! I repeat that NOT world class! Yes there are still weird, ignorant, world cup orientated idiots that actually think that Stevie G is not the or at least one of the top midfielders and or players in the world!

The point for arguing against this is his lack of a league title and no international trophy, but George Best, George Weah and Eusebio to name a few did not win an international trophy either and no one disputes there greatness!

With a record of 14 goals in 72 caps for England (11 of them goals in competitive games and 3 goals in Major competition finals) he looks like a creative player but perhaps not in the same bracket of Zinidine Zidane (108 -31 goals) or Michel Platini (72 – 41 goals) or Johan Cruyff (48 – 33 goals) who are regarded as the greatest attacking midfielders of all time.

However this brings me to the Stat of the Week; when we talk about high level football the Champions League is the pinnacle of football competition. So when I tell you that England’s and in deed Britain’s all time goal scorer in international club football in Steven Gerrard many people will laugh!

We can even go one step further and actually prove that Gerrard is the highest goal scoring Midfielder ever in international club football! So people that debate the worthiness of World Class please look at the following tables and tell me he’s not one of the greatest midfielders the world has ever seen!

All this without mentioning the 2006 FA Cup final or the 2005 Champions League campaign; which he almost single handedly.

Key to the table: Shaded name= retired; NAT= nationality; POS= position; CL= Champions League & European Cup; UEFA= UEFA Cup & Fairs Cup; CWC= Cup Winners Cup; ESC= European Super Cup; WCC= World Club Cup & Intercontinental Cup; INTER= Intertoto Cup; ENG= England; SCO= Scotland; WAL= Wales; BEL= Belgium; SPA= Spain; ROM= Romania; CZE= Czechislovakia & Czech Republic; HOL= Holland; POR= Portugal; GER= Germany; BRA= Brazil; MID= Midfielder; FOR= Forward; WIN= Winger
