Matchday 28/10/07

Ok i must admit that i was lucky not to have place any of my tips for epl saturday night. I was quite tempted into taking the underdogs again (man city ending chelsea's home record and boro avoiding a thrashing from man u), but after witnessing how these sides stuttered against their bigger opponents, i just feel that it may not be a bad idea that i focus all my attention on the liverpool vs arsenal match for this week.

Contrary to what everyone will be expecting, i am going for a liverpool win this time (surprise??). Ok ok. i am backin that partly because i wan to see man u climb up the standings faster. But of course, i'm not going to waste all your money based on that (i know how hard u all earn ur money).

First and foremost, arsenal has been winning too many games. Sometime someday that has to end somehow right? So much hype has been said about arsenal's sublime game play and arsene wenger's tactical astuteness. But frankly, arsenal probably has the thinnest squad depth among the top four and i find their game not really up there with the team which went unbeaten a few seasons ago.

Talking about liverpool, i dun think i have much to say. Dull, stale, monotonous, boring are some of the words u can describe them. There have been lots of speculation about the wily old fox benitez, but i genuinely believe he will stop the rot of defeats his side has suffered recently and hit top gear tml.

I'm quietly confident about how this match will end. If i have a chance tml, i wont mind placing some bucks on it.
