The Premiership

This is my first ever entry in this weblog, as this is so I have decided to make this post on the premiership. Surely there can't be a better way to start this weblog. Some of the best players in the world playing in the best league in the world. That is my opinion atleast, I think many spanish, italien, french and even the scottish would disagree though.

With players like Rooney, Henry, Scholes, Giggs, Shevchenko, Terry, Gerrard and Owen playing in this league there is no doubt the premier league is filled with talent. Other leagues such as the spanish La liga do have quality though with the likes of Ronaldinho, Eto'o, Ronaldo, Marquez, and Torres to name a few. As for the Serie A, well although its had its troubles recently, a bulk of the Italien team that won the world cup are in that league, so enough said.

The premiership has been exciting this season. Some players have come into serious form such as Giggs who even though is getting old in footballing terms can still go past very young players like they are not even there. Rooney is just returning to form also after being not quite himself, which is probably due to a number of reasons such as his experiences from the world cup, match fitness and confidence. Still he is getting better every game. There is a saying "form is temporary, class is permanent."

One player who has been disappointing so far is Lampard. His form has not been very good for some time now and he is not the player the premiership saw last season. I personally believe the the winners of the premiership this season will come down to whether Lampard reaches top form or not as I believe Chelsea rely on him for creating and scoring the majority of their goals. That said Drogbas finally decided to play well.

Overall this season is shaping up to be a good one. I personally tip Manchester United for the title this year but I do believe Chelsea's breath will be on the back of Man Utd's neck until the very end.
