2012 here we come!

February 4th, 2012 | By: aron | Comments Comments(0)

And we are back…
Since the last post, I have found a new job and gotten twins so there has been a lot to do. In between changing diapers and walking a baby-carriage, I have found a moment to update the dear readers of this blog.
Lets start with the national team. Since beating the Netherlands to make it to the Euro ... [read more]

Sweden 3 Holland 2: or we made it!

October 12th, 2011 | By: aron | Comments Comments(0)

What a game! What a colossal group effort! We won and in dramatic fashion against the second ranked team in the world! Where do I start this post?
This is one of those few times in life where it feels so good to be wrong. I tipped 2-1 to the Netherlands before the game started and to be honest after such ... [read more]

Sweden vs the Netherlands: direct or play-off seat?

October 10th, 2011 | By: aron | Comments Comments(6)

So after a terrible game in Finland where we were lucky enough to escape with three points, its time to move on to the last official game of the Euro 2012 qualifiers. Oh, sure, there is still a play-off coming up, but there is one last chance that we might just be able to avoid that and wouldn´t that be ... [read more]

Second Place is ours or Play-off here we come!

October 8th, 2011 | By: aron | Comments Comments(0)

When the referee blew the final whistle last night, I breathed a big sigh of relief. It was a miserable game from start to finish: a game where there were very few positive moments from a Swedish perspective. Lets start with the good stuff though. Somewhere around ten minutes in Sebastian Larsson makes a run into the middle, puts his ... [read more]

Starting Eleven and final notes for Finland!

October 7th, 2011 | By: aron | Comments Comments(2)

I have the official starting eleven for Sweden for this evening’s away game in Helsinki with the official starting time being 18:15 (Central European Time).
Sweden will appear in the following order:
Isaksson
Lustig, Majstorovic, Mellberg, Olsson
Elm, Källström
Larsson, Elmander, Wilhelmsson
Ibrahimovic
It’s the same basic 4-2-3-1 that we have been driving with the entirety of the 2012 campaign. The major difference, and this is pretty ... [read more]

Fun With Romanian Riot Police

Football is - sport in general, really - a great place for some creative hyperbole. "He shot it to the moon!" Well no, not really. "The defender has him in his back pocket." Diego Buonanotte or Maximiliano Moralez perhaps, but no one else. Today, we have a new one: "Boy, ...

Lecce Fans Really Wanted Promotion, Let Everyone Know

Given Lecce has spent recent times bouncing between Serie A and Serie B, the dungeons of Italian football, where they were placed for doing all sorts of scandalous Italian things, aren't quite acceptable. The fans let their displeasure be known after failing in the playoffs for promotion back to Serie ...

Sebastien Squillaci Becomes Clark Kent

Call it a week, call it a month, call it a summer. The battle is over. "Can I just stay here with you?" "Definitely not." One needn't have paid the slightest attention to Sebastien Squillaci's time at Arsenal to find the genius in this video. Every club should have one. [101gg] ...

This Year In Schadenfreude

The Guardian has gone and shaken some salt into several open wounds by unveiling the twenty worst sitter misses of 2012-13. There are some solid names on the list, including Barcelona's fresh new 50m+ signing, and they don't discriminate based on gender, either, with Nicoletta den Ridder is a solid ...

Aruban Goalkeepers Gone Wild

Ketchup and mustard kits aside (no corner taken on color richness), this little clip from Aruba has so much going for it. From the mere fact it's a goalkeeper goal, to the Marco Tardelli-esque celebration of unadultered joy and childlike innocent, to the complete meltdown at the end by the ...

Brendan Rodgers Provides Interview Of The Year

Watching sports interviews, no matter the sport, is like watching a cheating husband attempt to deflect questions. The actual question is answered roughly three percent of the time. Brendan Rodgers somehow manages to do the same when it's a 9 year old firing the hard-hitters his way. Almost as though ...

Javier Mascherano's Fight Club

Football has a bit of a reputation for a little bit of liar, liar, pants on fire when it comes to the injuries. Javier Mascherano has boosted that several levels. Beyond kicking another dude in the back while being taken off for an injury, he then hopped off the stretcher ...

Poland Knows How To Cannonball

There are probably some questions as to the quality of this pitch. Primarily why this man was able to leap into a puddle on the pitch and walk away without his tailbone shattered into a trillion little fragments. Why is the puddle that deep? Is this a special pitch with ...
