Hi guys, I've got some questions for you which I made up:

How do Spain have such good players?
What is the secret to Bayern Munich's success?
Why can Arsenal not win any trophies?
Is Fernando Torres not scoring enough goals his fault? Or is it his team-mates fault?
Can QPR keep their best players? Or will they be sold/released?
Will Wilfred Zaha perform at Manchester Utd?
Will Manchester Utd and/or Liverpool go bankrupt and go down to Northern Premier  League Division One North?
Can Liverpool return to be the best team in England?
Who will win the Premier League first: Tottenham or Arsenal?
Will Manchester Utd, Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham or Liverpool ever be relegated?
If so, who first?

European game of the week: Galatasaray 3 vs 2 Real Madrid Agg: 3-5

Real Madrid were condemned to their first defeat in 13 games by a defiant Galatasaray in Istanbul. Galatasaray's plan was to score first and start brightly, but that failed after just 8 minutes when Ronaldo met Sami Khedira's low cross. That then meant that Gala had to score 5 goals, an impossible task...

But Gala livened things up a little bit with a bullet shot into the top corner which Diego Lopez could do nothing about from ex-Arsenal man Emmanuel Eboue. Galatasaray had a huge chance to make it 2-1 when Wesley Sneijder was beautifully set up but dragged his shot wide. He then made up for that mistake when he scored into the bottom corner with 50 minutes gone. Didier Drogba then gave their fans some hope he backheeled in a Amrabat cross. And upto that moment Real Madrid were defending like Galatasaray in the first half, but suddenly clicked and played superbly in the last ten minutes where they were rewarded with another goal from the prolific Christiano Ronaldo.

The other results were: Juventus 0-2 Bayern Munich Agg:0-4, Barcelona 1-1 PSG Agg:3-3 (Barcelona win on away goals rule), Dortmund 3 vs 2 Malaga Agg:3-2

FA Cup Game of the Week: Oldham 2-2 Everton

Everton thought that they had sealed a place in the quarter finals of the FA Cup until substitute Matt Smith headed in the equaliser with the last second of the game.

Oldham had taken a shock lead through Jordan Obita after Oldham caught Everton on the counter attack and Lee Croft's miss hit shot went in after he tapped it in. But Everton replied eleven minutes later with Victor Anichebe smashing in a shot on the turn.

After half time Everton caught Oldham napping and Phil Jagielka happily headed in Everton's second goal of the night. However Oldham forced loads of pressure onto Everton and finally found the goal through 6"6 striker Matt Smith. But there is some controversy over whether the Oldham goalkeeper used his hand to force it into the net. I disagree but I see some people's point. It did look like it hit the arm of the goalie but Smith's head was right next to the arm.

Matt Smith has now engraved  himself in Oldham history. He scored two goals against Liverpool to knock them out and he has now earned the Latics a replay at Goodison Park.

The other FA Cup results Luton 0-3 Millwall, Arsenal 0-1 Blackburn, MK Dons 1-3 Barnsley.

Champions League Game of the Week:Real Madrid 1-1 Manchester United

 My champions league game of the week was held at the Bernabeu were Manchester United were held to 1-1 draw against Real Madrid. Fabian Coentrao nearly broke the deadlock after just five minutes as Real dominated. However once agin their weakness came at corners, and Wayne Rooney delivered a decent cross Danny Welbeck simply headed the ball into the net. A soft goal to concede but a vital one for United. United then found their stride and forced Diego Lopez into making many saves. 

After Real kept on dominating (again) they finally found the goal that they were hoping for through a certain Cristiano Ronaldo who scored against his old club. However Ronaldo did not grab the headlines. Instead it was normally disappointing goalkeeper David De Gea. The result means that we can look forward to an exciting match at Old Trafford.

The other Champions League games were: Shakhtar Donetsk 2-2 Borussia Dortmund, Celtic 0-3 Juventus, Valencia 1-2 PSG.

Fa Cup game Of the Week:West Ham2-2Manchester United

Manchester United grabbed a stoppage time goal to deny West Ham a famous victory at Upton Park. Tom Cleverley put the Red devils ahead after he side-footed the ball into the net. However James Collins equalised soon after with his first goal for the club when Joe Cole (making his second debut for the club) crossed and James Collins headed in. 59 minutes gone and it was an action replay. Joe Cole crossed and James Collins headed in again.

Manchester United were running out of time so Sir Alex Ferguson threw on Robin van Persie to do his magic. And he did. Soon after Ryan Giggs' header cleared the crossbar, van Persie scored from inside the area into the bottom left corner. And that sent that the match to a replay.

Other results were: Brighton 2-0 Newcastle, Wigan 1-1 Bournemouth, Tottenham 3-0 Coventry, Southend 2-2 Brentford, Southampton 1-5 Chelsea, Sheffield Wednesday 0-0 MK Dons, QPR 1-1 West Brom, Peterborough 0-3 Norwich, Oxford 0-3 Sheffield United, Nottingham Forest 2-3 Oldham, Millwall 1-0 Preston, Middlesbrough 4-1 Hastings, Manchester City 3-0 Watford, Macclesfield 2-1 Cardiff, Luton 1-0 Wolves, Leicester 2-0 Burton, Leeds 1-1 Birmingham, Hull 1-1 Leyton Orient, Fulham 1-1 Blackpool, Derby 5-0 Tranmere, Crystal Palace 0-0 Stoke, Crawley 1-3 Reading, Charlton 0-1 Huddersfield, Bolton 2-2 Sunderland, Blackburn 2-0 Bristol City, Barnsley 1-0 Burnley, Aston Villa 2-1 Ipswich, Aldershot 3-1 Rotherham, Swansea 2-2 Arsenal, Mansfield 1-2 Liverpool, Cheltenham 1-5 Everton.

Ballon D'Or

The Ballon D'Or is awarded to the best male footballer of the year and in this case 2012. In the past couple of years it has been dominated by one man... Lionel Messi. Messi first won the award in 2009 were he beat Cristiano Ronaldo and Xavi.

However, the public have been thinking that maybe Messi will lose his title to Cristiano Ronaldo as Ronaldo had helped Madrid to win the La Liga, and the Copa Del Rey.

What a load of rubbish!

I would like to know how many records Ronlado has broken this year, compared to Lionel Messi. Ronaldo hasn't broken any records yet Messi has broken 6. Look at the difference...

And Lionel Messi proved victorious once again as he won the Ballon D'Or for the fourth consecutive time and setting a new record. Second was Cristanio Ronaldo and third was Andreas Iniesta.

Messi rightly won it because he scored a ridiculous 91 goals in 2012. And Ronaldo only scored a measly 50 goals. As a result of this, Lionel Messi will stay as the best player in the world and maybe will be the best player ever...

Transfers

The transfer window is open and ready for some big names to move to the Premier League. We've already had Daniel Sturridge move from Chelsea to Liverpool for £15 million, Daniel Carrico move from Sporting Lisbon to Reading for £609,000, Joe Cole looks set to rejoin West Ham for whom we scored 10 goals in 126 appearances. And finally Demba Ba looks set to join Chelsea for £7 million.

I think that there will be a lot more transfers during January and I reckon that Crystal Palace's Wilfred Zaha will move to the Premier League.

Let's see what happens!
