This week is going to be quite interesting for English soccer fans. We have Chelsea v. Aston Villa, Man. United v. Blackburn, Arsenal v. Sunderland, and Liverpool v. Man. City.
The most interesting game out of the four will be Chelsea v. Aston Villa for a couple of reasons. As you all know from my previous post, Chelsea's ex-manager was relieved from his duties prematurely and Roman Abramovich, owner oof Chelsea, signed Guus Hiddink as the new and temporary manager of the Blues. Guus Hiddink headed the Russian International team in the Euro Cup and is quite an experienced and hardcore manager in my opinion. So, this weeks game will display his unique tactic. Hopefully, its wha it takes to get Chelsea back on their feet again. Second, Aston Villa is in third place, while Chelsea trails right behind them in fourth. So, the winner of this game will determine who will advance.
Stay tuned for more soccer. If you reside in the United States, the most interesting games of the Premier League are being broadcasted on Fox Soccer Channel and Setanta Sports. If you do not have neither channel, I suggest you watch them live on your PC.
