Hazard Warning!
Eden Hazard has looked great for Chelsea in their first 3 games. Hazard has had somthing to do with all seven of their goals so far. He has 6 assists and he scored the other one. For a new player in the Premier League he has gotten of to a wonderfull start. If he continues his top form and Chelsea keeps playing well, they will be a hard team to play.
Swansea have gotten off to a great start also. Yes, their first games where not the hardest in the world, but they won both by a good margin. The way Swansea played against West Ham impressed some of the best soccer players around the world, including Cesc Fabregas, who tweeted he was really enjoying the way Swansea was playing. Once Swansea starts playing harder teams it will be intersting to watch and see how they do because clearly they can handle the easier Premier League sides.
Other leagues have started all around the world. A match of the El Classico has already been played which Barcelona beat Real Madrid 3-2. The game was not a league game, but a Spanish Super cup game. It is still a good win for Barcelona and it should give them hope that they can challenge Real for the top spot in the league this year.
Even though Bayern Munich where without Frank Ribery and Mario Gomez they won their first tournament game and league game very easily. Thats a good thing for them because Gomez is probably going to be out for a little while longer. Thomas Mueller and Arjen Robben helped the cause by scoring goals. Other players will have to step up for Munich, since they do not have their top goal scorer.
Two of the top strikers in the Premier League have gone down with injury. Sergio Aguero got an injury in Man City's first game of the season last week and Wayne Rooney will be out for a month after getting stepped on against Fulham. Rooney had a huge gash in his leg after being stepped on.

Important Info and Premier League Starts
Hello!! From now on, you can expect for me to not post as many posts as I have during the past few months. Probably I will post 2 or 3 during the week and maybe one on the weekend.
Anyways, the Premier League has started!! Chelsea was probably the most impresive. Yes they where not going against the hardest team, but Wigan is not a bad team. They look new and improved and their newest signing Eden Hazard looked great. Hazard help set up the two goals and he looked like he will do that the rest of the season. Chelsea has brought in lots of young talent and the teams across the premier league will have to watch out of the speed and energy. Man U played today, but I did not get to see it. They lost to Everton 1-0. That is a surprising result to me with Man U's new signings of Kagawa and Van Persie, but they will probably improve throughout the season. Arsenal should have won their game against Sunderland. Giroud had a chance that he should have scored and he did not even put it on target. Santi Cazorla looked very impressive and not only could make chances, but shoot himself. Arsenal tied Sunderland 0-0. Arsenal's offense looked great, but at some points the defense got a little scary!

Premier League Starts Tomorrow!!!!
Two days ago the U.S. Men's National team traveled to Mexico City to face Mexico. We had not beaten Mexico in Mexico for a very long, long time. The game was very close all the way through, of course not all the big stars where there being so close to the start of the season, but still they where not bad either. Brek Shea, who if you can remember has not been on top form lately, dribbled down the side of the field dodging defenders here and there then crossed it on the ground into the box. Then the American who recieved it did a fancy little pass to someone who finished it off. This was great for Brek Shea who set up the play and I hope it gives him a lot of momentum to do good for FC Dallas. The best player in the game was Tim Howard. He had one of he best performences of the year and really kept the United States in it. Some people are saying that because of that game he should be in consideration for the best goal keeper in the world. It was a great win for the U.S. and they finally won on Mexican Soil once again.
Tomorrow the Premier League starts and three good games will be played.
The first one Arsenal vs Sunderland should be a pretty good match. Last year they had close games and thats how I expect this one to be. Its at Arsenal so for the first game of the season they will have an advantage with the home field. If the new signings play I think Arsenal can pull out a win here. I expect Gervinho to score. He has had a great preseason and I hope he can continue his form into the regular season. That is all the scoring I think will happen. Since its the first game of the season I dont think anybody is going to come out just attacking as hard as they can. So Arsenal wins 1-0.
The next game is Fulham vs. Norwich. A lot of people probably have Fulham winning this one, but I have it in a tie. I have always thought Norwich was a pretty good team and they can compete with some of the top level Premier League teams. Fulham is also a good team and has a great midfielder with Clint Dempsey. Both teams have nice offenses, but lack a little on defense. I have this one ending 2-2!
The last match I will predict is QPR vs. Swansea. This one should be another great match. Both these teams got promoted to the Premier League in the 2011/2012 season and have stayed in the top flight of English soccer. QPR has the new edition of Park Ji Sung who should help in the midfield a lot. Both these teams can also compete with top 3 teams, after both beat Arsenal in one of thier games last year. This one is going to be anther close one, but I have to take QPR 2-1. I just think they have a slightly better offense they Swansea.

Muamba's Retirement
Hello and the premier league season starts in 3 days!!!
Today Bolton's Fabrice Muamba had to announce his retirement. In a FA Cup match between the Spurs and Bolton, Muamba collapsed and his heart stopped for a total of 78 minutes. He has been recovering and said that he hoped to return to Bolton and continue on with his career. A few days ago when he went to one of the best heart doctors in the world, he recieved dissapointing news. The doctor said that to go back and play would be to dangerous, so Muamba has decided to retire. Muamba has played for the English club Birmingham and started his career out at Arsenal.
When I predicted the Bundesliga a few days ago I did not realize that their star striker Mario Gomez had go injured. I still think the Bayern Munich can win the league title and hopefully Gomez will come back pretty quickly.
Well thats it for today thanks for reading!!

Collection of News 3
Collection of News:
The Arsenal Midfielder Alex Song has said he is happy at Arsenal and does not want to leave. Barcelona has had intrest in him, but he said he had heard of that intrest and would still like to stay at Arsenal. Song had some pretty nice assist at Arsenal last season and scored one goal. Even though he is not a big goal threat he is a pretty good passer of the ball.
Athletic Bilbao will sell the Spanish National player, Fernando Llorente, only if someone will pay the small fee of 36 Million Euros. Llorente said he would like to leave just last week and Juventus was getting some money together to offer 16 Million, but if Bilbao hold up on their price that would be nowhere close. The Premier League club Tottenham is also interested, but Llorente has made it clear that he wants to play in the UEFA Champions League. At that price I do not think anybody can get him.
The 21 year old Jack Rodwell has moved to Manchester City. He has played some for the England National squad and it will be intersting to see how he does on a big premier league team. Manchester City, like always, have said that they still may buy more players before the window is closed at the end of August.
