The Wildcard’s Premier League Predictions - Week 33
The little Spaniard, David Silva, joined Manchester City in 2010. There is no player who has created more chances (598) or assists (63) in the time since. Never gets nominated for awards though, the poor lad.
Picking an All Whites Confederations Cup Squad Based on Anthony Hudson’s Selection History
The All Whites named what was supposedly their strongest possible squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Fiji last month. That obviously changed when Winston Reid pulled out injured but the original sentiment still told a story.
Flying Kiwis – April 11
That's Chris Wood: EFL Team of the Season selection and runner-up in the Championship Player of the Year (and Month for March) stakes to you there, Jerry.
#WellyNix – VAR(seholes)
The playoffs are gone. The draw with Sydney coupled with Perth Glory beating Brisbane 3-1 means the Phoenix’s season has just 90 minutes left, ain’t gonna be no bonus footy for the Wellingtonians. But… the drama!
The Wildcard’s Premier League Predictions - Week 32
The title race lives on, there's a pulse and everything thanks to that crazy Spurs comeback. Chelsea can hear the footsteps creeping up. They couldn’t… could they? Nah probably not.
Let the Great Arsenal Rebuild of 2017 Begin! (Wenger or No Wenger)
Wenger is too careful to burn the place down just to stay warm in the meantime but he also doesn’t have to worry about building for someone else’s future. Stay humble here, Arsenal fans, but we could be about to see one of those drastic squad overhauls…
Flying Kiwis – April 4
Right now this week’s Chris Wood goal came… oh no wait… he didn’t score. Huh. That’s strange. Just the 17th game of the Championship season that he hasn't found the net in, Ol' Woody.
#WellyNix: Late Season Heroics vs Future Uncertainty
Playing from a position where anything other than a win would effectively (if not officially) eliminate them, the Nix have scored eight goals and conceded a grand total of zilch. 8-0 in their last 180 combined minutes.
The Wildcard’s Premier League Predictions - Week 30
The corner has been rounded, the season is headed towards its ferocious conclusion. Hey and a Merseyside Derby ain’t the worst way to signal that final direction either.
All Whites 2-0 Fiji: Same Score, Different Story
A much better performance, you reckon? A better style of footy, better goals? Sure… but the score-line was exactly the same.
#WellyNix – No All Whites, No Problems… Which Adds To Some Selection Dramas
Yeah alright then, who saw that coming? Doesn’t even matter how many international dudes are missing, every extra fella that skips off they score another goal.
All Whites 2-0 Fiji: Business Over Pleasure, No Worries There
Hudson’s Heroes did what they had to do and now we move on to the next game. One game at a time, taking care of business, etc.
#WellyNix – The Precarious Playoff Picture
It’s pretty much over, we all know that. If the Nix were gonna save this thing then they really needed somehow not to lose to Western Sydney Wanderers on the weekend.
Flying Kiwis – March 21
Souleymane Doukara cut inside towards the box and Fikayo Tomori made a super sloppy challenge which led to the referee's whistle sounding loudly. Chris Wood smashed it down the middle from the penalty spot for his second goal.
Pep Guardiola’s Still In The Middle Of A Manchester City Overhaul
Oh so you thought that Pep Guardiola was just gonna waltz on in and immediately win everything with Manchester City?
The Wildcard’s Premier League Predictions - Week 29
When Hack-A-Hazard doesn't work, you move on to plan... F. Hey but at least Jose Mourinho sticks to his grudges, unlike Tony Pulis and Arsene Wenger, who are planning a trip to Ibiza.
Flying Kiwis – March 14
Despite going off injured last week, Winston Reid only had a dose of cramp and was good to go against Bournemouth... where the defence was terrible and they leaked three. But he might be getting a pay-rise.
Analysing This All Whites Squad for the World Cup Qualifiers vs Fiji
Word on the street is that this is the All Whites’ strongest possible squad here. At least that’s what the tweet said. Two games against Fiji later this month, one home and one away and victory in at least one of those should all but get them into the OFC qualifying final for the 2018 World Cup.
Running Down The Footy Ferns At The 2017 Cyprus Cup
The lead in to the tournament may have been dominated by Abby Erceg and when a legend retires you generally wanna send them off with the best possible results but the Football Ferns squad for the 2017 Cyprus Cup always suggested a firm eye towards the future.
