Luck,Talent or just a very strange hairdo



I have always maintained that great things make their own luck to the brilliance in their players. But a certain belgian ebony shoe winner by the name of Fellaini has put another theory in my mind.. If you have so much of head on you.. you are bound to score more headers..right?..I calculated 50% of the pic above is his head! Maybe its a talent to keep such a hairdo koz U got to sacrifice ur pride,dignity and be the laughing stock of many. Not to forget the number of electronic live wires you have to put ur hair on to make it that way. Its the type of dedication that made Everton go into the last four of the FA cup...

3 of the top teams,less Aston Villa and Liverpool are already in the semis. Arsenal and Hull will fight for the last spot. Chelsea,Manchester United and Arsenal recorded easy victories this weekend. 1 thing to look forward to is the return of a certain Didier Drogba. His performances since Hiddinks arrival show dedication and hunger. Something the whole Chelsea team lacked in the latter part of Scolari's era. Chelsea at the moment look like the best team in England.traditionally they come to live at this stage and it seems like we are going to see the best of them in times to come.Arsenal destroyed Burnley. Burnley are like the Arsenal of division 1. Full of flank play and pace and goalscoring midfielders. So 3-0 was probably just a small showing of the difference between the two leagues. Carlos Vela provided us with probably one of the best FA cup goals thus far this season with a composed finished from a move that sayed pure talent.

Everton had Moyes' brilliance to thank. A halftime sub of Saha for Rodwell and it payed dividence as Everton came back from 1-0 down to rally a hard fought 2-1 victory. Poor defending and bad goalkeeping calls made it possible but in a game of 90 minutes and 2 halfs, the team that want it more tend to lose their concentration less and tend to stray away from the game less. Take nothing away from the toffees.Boro's lack of firepower also showed. Lastly, Manchester United won 4-0 at Craven Cottage but lets face it Fulham just didn turn up. Etuhu was probably United's man of the match. He was terrible while Dacourt came on thinkin injuring Park or Carrick may get Mourinho thinkin of playing him next season...

1 thing that we should notice recently is how time wasting techniques are being squeezed out of games by officials. Last night the toffees had a decision against them when Cahill was shielding a ball in the corner.Recently, Bosingwa kicked out at Benayoun in an attack on Israelis that actually went unpunished! Palestinians rejoiced and made Bosingwa a cult. It seems that referees are against such behaviour because lets face it it takes away the fun in the game with time wasting. It also does not seem very sporting at times. But then again there is reason for referees to give the decision as you are obviously blocking players from getting the ball on purpose. Either way you look at it its a true professional's secret that seems to be wiping out in the English game. If you ask me its another evidence that the FA are more into entertainment value than the old secrets of the game..Football is ever changing. Time will tell if its going the right way

MAnchester United play Everton next. Arsenal/Hull play Chelsea. Saha thinks the toffess can win it. I think he wont be fit to start. Manchester United v Chelsea final again? or maybe the two teams that probably deserve it more EVerton v Arsenal. Any permutation it will surely be the right combination
