It's the end of August, and the English Premier League (EPL -- not to be confused with the IPL. Bloody acronyms) has only after two weeks swung into full swing. What should we expect? More goals, excitement, controversy and unpredictability? There ha...
Various football leagues around the world kicked off this weekend, and isn't this just happening at the right time? People were just getting over their World Cup hangovers, and now we face another 10 months or so of top soccer all the way ...
