New castle stages comeback onslaught

Newcastle united F.C of england are making solid of their ambitions to come back to the top flight football in england with their fourth win of the season. They now have four victories and a draw. That takes them to 13 points and now on top of the championship table. A goal from Danny Guthrie after 52 minutes of regulation time was enough to seal victory in their last match against Leicester city. To be fair to the opposition, leicester had begging chances to level the score, but the magpies ( as Newcastle is fondly called) had the better of the day. Although it is probably too early to start judging, but from the look of things, they seem to focused on booking a ticket back to the top flight, the premiership.

Adebayor makes it 3 out of 3 for manchester city

Emmanuel Adebayor has proved he is worth his salt and is proficient and at the same time prolific in front of goal. He scored his third goal in three matches that he has played for his new club Manchester city. With this, city makes it 100% record and staging a strong onslaught for the English premiership title.

All in all i personally don't think Manchester city is "a small club with small mentality"...... to defy the quote of Sir Alex Ferguson ( manager of Manchester united).

inter pummels milan, juve shocks rome

It was most definitely a weekend of "on the road victories". Inter's thiago motta, milito, maicon and dejan stankovic hit a total of four goals past Ac milan goal tender in game where milan was to stage a contest against the nerrazurris. Milan captain was red carded for a second bookable offense just before he was supposed to be substituted.. how sad!!

The old lady had a good run in rome where they put three past roma. Diego scored two while Felipe Melo put the icing on the cake to make it three and an all brazilian affair for juventus on a day the strikers could not just convert!!
