Team of the Week:

Jaaskelainen (West Ham)

Zabaleta (Man City) Davies (Hull City) Reid (West Ham)

Henderson (Liverpool) Oscar (Chelsea) Noble (West Ham) Januzaj (Man Utd)

Silva (Man City)

Suarez (Liverpool) Remy (Newcastle)

Hero of the Week:

Januzaj probably has to be hero of the week as he grabbed both goals that saw Man Utd overcome Sunderland 2-1. It was another forgettable performance by United but Moyes will be relieved to get his first win in 3 weeks. The 18-yearold has been talked about for a while with rumours already circling about Barcelona wanting to nab him and you can see why, he’s good on the ball, links up with players well and has an eye for goal. I found it bizarre that Moyes wasn’t frantically running around during the transfer window for a midfielder and left it late to secure Fellaini but it makes sense now. Man Utd have always signed players if the money was right and that they thought would definitely improve the team, the went for Fabregas and couldn’t get him so rather than pay over the odds or take a risk on another player who may not fit the bill, they’ve said “well we got a few decent youngsters let hold out and see how they go” fair play. Moyes obviously has faith in the young Belgian and its paid off so far and even though one game doesn’t make a player, Januzaj looks like he could be just like that new signing they needed this season.

Remy also deserves a mention after earning Newcastle a vital 3 points against Cardiff with 2 fantastically taken goals. He’s clearly a top class striker and the Toon will want to snap him up permanently before someone else does. Bent is definitely hero of the week for Fulham and even more so Martin Jol as he scored the goal that secured a 1-0 against Stoke. Jol has been under a lot of pressure and I did pick him out as a manager who could well be the first to get the sack this season but he’s hanging in there and rightly so. He looked very worried and disappointed last week as you could see his lack of results was getting to him so he must’ve been relieved to see Bent take that goal so nicely. He deserved that win and hopefully he turns it around.

Nipple of the Week:

I haven’t really got a nipple this week more a whole barrel of tits that keep making these managerial appointments. Poyet has been announced Sunderland’s new manager replacing Di Canio. Now Poyet may turn out to be a good manager, he may get Sunderland playing good football and turn the results around but does he deserve the job? Di Canio didn’t deserve the job and this trend of appointing someone just because they’re foreign is ridiculous.

Why is it so hard for British managers to get top jobs? There are managers like Chris Hughton who coached for 20 years before he got his first managerial job at Newcastle, like Steve Clarke who worked his way up for over 10 years to get the West Brom job. So how can managers like Di Canio, Poyet, Zola, and so on walk into top jobs? These three barely have 10 years’ experience altogether so how have they all got Premier League jobs? What about the Neil Warnock’s, Owen Coyle’s, Eddie Howe’s, and Dave Jones’s? its seems to be fashionable to appoint these foreigners just because a few such as Martinez and Laudrup have come in and done well, it’s as if without a non-British manager your club is going to do well! So Sir Alex, O’Neill, Moyes, Redknapp, Sir Bobby, and Hodgson have never had any success then? I don’t care how Poyet does at Sunderland but no doubt he’ll get Sunderland passing the ball more and then the media will pretend that he’s really turned them around and its very honourable the way they play. It will be like no one has ever of thought of playing such expansive football and especially not all these uncultured British managers! His team can pass the ball all they like but you still need to get results. On top of that he was sacked at Brighton during the summer for unknown reasons with the club very hush about it, sounds very strange. Well anyway hope this appointment doesn’t turn out as much as a farce as the last one for you Sunderland, good luck with your cliché appointment.
