Not just because, in his fledgling career, he’s actually lived up to the expectations that goes with every hot, young Argentinian talent - the comparisons with the legendary Maradona
Not just because he’s been the most consistent player for Barcelona last season, when stars like Ronaldinho and Eto’o had injuries, bad form and ego to deal […]

The past week has sure been busy and I had a lot of things going on. Academically that is. Although that didn’t stop me from blogging, on the other blog.
For those not aware, I had started a football fan blog dedicated to Manchester United: Red Rants. Of course, thanks to Ahmed from Soccerlens for […]

I am expecting this piece of news to make it big in the Indian media. Lakshmi Mittal (yeah that steel guy) is apparently linked with a possible takeover of English Premier League football club Birmingham. I remember the frenzy when Baichung Bhutia moved to third division side Bury.

The following post, although stems from football, is very much relevant for any other form of entertainment from video hosting sites like Youtube. I had posted this on Soccerlens, but feel it to be fairly general to be posted here too. One doesn’t need to know football to get the point of this post. So […]

I fleetingly mentioned United’s clinical demolition of Roma in the Champions’ League quarterfinal. I wrote a preview to the first leg of the semi final against Milan on Soccerlens. However yesterday, in the second leg of the semi final, was when I saw some past masters of the game systematically take apart a team that […]

This is for those football ‘fans’ who wake up once in four years for the World Cup and lapse into deep football insulation after that. Although it becomes harder to ignore feats such a this [refer Youtube video]. Plenty has been said about Messi’s potential to fulfill the prophecies that burden a lot of Argentinian […]

FIFA president Sepp Blatter has urged India to focus more on football than cricket.
FIFA president Sepp Blatter on Monday urged cricket-mad India to embrace football, saying the sport had a great future in the land of one billion people.”At present we are working on Vision Asia and our plan for India is […]

It’s been a feature of United’s performance throughout this season, with all their attacking verve and flair, demolishing teams at will. But to do such a feat in Europe was going to take something special. Today’s UEFA Champions’ League quarterfinal against Roma was one such example of pure footballing masterclass. A team that was trailing […]
