Football: April 2008 Archives

Might as well get the Premiership football fixtures for next weekends matches in early. Fixtures are for games being played between 26/04/08 and 02/05/08. The biggest game is obviously Manchester United's championship clash with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, but my second pick of the weekends football action is Everton versus Aston Villa.

Manchester United seem to be securing the long term services of there English players after announcing new deals have been reached with Micheal Carrick, (the over rated and highly dislikable) Wes Brown and Rio Ferdinand. The length of the new contracts has not been disclosed and was announced to Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson by chief executive David Gill today.

This years Premier League is quickly coming to an end and although the Premiership title could still go one of 3 ways it looks highly unlikely Manchester United wont walk as champions this football term. Still the game between Manchester United and Arsenal this weekend is the one to watch on Sunday and should provide neutrals and fans with with a entertaining game of football.

 

Manager Arsene Wenger still believes that Arsenal can walk away with 2 trophies this term with the Premiership and Champions League. He's being pretty optimistic considering they have fallen behind Manchester United and Chelsea in the Premier League after leading the table for much of the season and a tough fixture at Anfield against boring boring Liverpool in the Champions League.
