Finally a decent return of 53.84% this week. Although it should be better, but some of the big boys did disappoint this week especially in the La Liga and Bundesliga. Maybe both end with liga was the reason why there are upsets there.

Time again for some soccer or football news around the world.

1. Some EPL News first. The return of Micheal Owen to action brings a smile to Mclaren's face ahead of crucial euro games and striker woes. Owen came off the bench to score in Newcastle 3-2 win over Everton would surely shows that Owen is back from injury and would be playing the upcoming euro qualifiers.




2. Avim Grant is loving the pressure at Chelsea even though he is also not serving up attacking football which saw his preceedor Mourinho left. Interesting enough Chelsea is still winning 1-0 also. So why did Mourinho left? One would surely wonder then. And he is still insisting that Shenvencko has a future at Chelsea though like Mourinho is not playing him. What a irony.



3. Now to another manager in trouble. Martin Jol is still defending Robinson in goal even though calls for his replacement is getting more especially after his mistakes vs Liverpool yesterday. The draw yesterday still left Spurs in 17th position in the EPL and waiting for a victory in 14 years over the reds. Now he has another two weeks to work his magic to get his team to start winning.



4. Now to go up north to Scotland where Cetlic regained the lead in the SPL with a close 2-1 win over Gretna to cap a memorable week where another 2-1 win over AC Milan midweek was the start of a good week. In another match, Aberdeen knocked 4 past St Mirren.
