Hahaha! I would have ignored you like the others, but I had to comment. Why not post the tutorial here then at the end of the whole stuff you can include a link to your blog? It is more effective than what you just did.

It's cool, but why is it that no-one has been able to create a forum that will be as simple, clean and friendly to the eye as Nairaland. Nairaland is easy to navigate and cool at the same time. I'm just wondering...

Arsenal's performance so far this season

...Five weeks into the season, Arsenal seem to have the most stable team out of the four clubs under review. They are on top of the table, they’ve won 5 matches in a row and they have free-scoring attackers and ever-willing Mesut Ozil pulling the strings for them in the midfield.

Their only loss in the campaign came in the opening game of the season – a 3-1 loss to Aston Villa. It was after the match that Arsene Wenger did what was necessary by bringing in the German playmaker from Real Madrid in a club record deal. Since then, the Gunners have found their rhythm and it seems that Ozil will be the new cult figure at the club if things continue this way, following in the footsteps of Patrick Viera, Thierry Henry, Cesc Fabregas and Robin van Persie.


But one should not get overexcited by the form of the Gunners. The North Londoners been known to capitulate at that point in the season when it matters the most and that has been the major reason that they’ve not been able to win a trophy in nearly nine years. It is only in those pressing moments that we’ll be able to know, just like in City’s case, where the club is actually heading.

edoyad: These words should be printed under the Arsenal badge as a constant reminder . Every analyst has used this at least once in the last eight years

Hahaha...word

Tomorrow's match is a must win for David Moyes. It's yet another match with Liverpool for him and his record against them has not been fantastic. There are only two possible outcomes tomorrow: Man Utd wins or Man Utd loses. Remember it's the league cup, one team will surely win, no draws no replays.

Brasil00742: I am the happiest person, after i heard that John Obi Mikel scored his first chelsea goal in the on going EPL games.

And he scored it in an amazing fashion

Chelsea's performance so far this season

In West London, Chelsea parted ways amicably with interim manager, Rafa Benitez, after he guided them to the Europa League triumph and secured a UEFA Champions League spot for the Blues this season by finishing in third place. In came Jose Mourinho, the Special One, “fresh” from a turbulent season in Spain, with new tactics and a different long-term vision for the club.

He decided to let go of some of the players from the previous season by either sending them to other clubs or reducing them to bit-part roles in the club this season. Juan Mata – who was voted Chelsea’s player of the 2012-13 season and the one before – was one of the players affected by the latter, along with Fernando Torres, Demba Ba, John Mikel Obi, David Luiz and Cesar Azpilicueta.


These were some of the players that formed the backbone of Chelsea’s team that conquered Europe’s tough second tier of continental football and ensured that the Blues qualified for this season’s UEFA Champions League. While the decision of the Happy One to overlook them may be startling, it’s good to remember that he’s one coach whose decisions that seem unconventional and bizarre have helped him win league trophies in four different European countries – Portugal, England, Italy and Spain – including two Champions Leagues.

Chelsea’s struggles this season have seen them go on a four-match winless streak, including three consecutive defeats at the hands of Bayern Munich, Everton and FC Basel. They’ve lost in all the competitions they’ve competed in so far (not including Tuesday evening’s Capital One match with Swindon Town).

But these are early pointers to areas in the team that are not yet the way they should be and if Jose Mourinho takes a critical look at them, it may put the perennial mid-season crisis that plagued Chelsea over the last couple of seasons in check.

Manchester United's performance so far this season

...The 2012-13 EPL season also saw the retirement of the world’s longest-serving club manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, from Manchester United after winning the 13th league title in his 27-year stint at the Old Trafford outfit. Before leaving, though, he handpicked his successor at the club and it was his long-time friend and protegee, Everton’s David Moyes.


Five games into the campaign (and on the back of a desperately poor preseason), Moyes’ United has looked like a toothless, spineless version of Ferguson’s United. It’s basically the same team with the same players as the one that was handed over to him by Sir Alex, but his approach is slightly different from that of his predecessor. But he has so far failed to convince us that it is the best possible approach for the club.

United’s topsy-turvy performance this season culminated in last Saturday’s 4-1 humiliation at the hands of bitter rivals and noisy neighbours, Manchester City. Getting past City (and Chelsea) has become such an onerous task for Man Utd. in recent seasons and it goes to show just how far they’ve fallen back behind those rivals in terms of quality. The only saving grace for them is that they’ve been able to do the job against weaker opponents – an area where their rivals have often failed.

If Manchester United should harbour any hope of successfully defending their league title this season, they have no option, but to improve their record against Chelsea and Manchester City.

Juan Mata and David Luiz recalled for Chelsea for Capital One Cup third round clash against Swindon

Mata and Luiz were omitted from the 18-man squad selected to face Fulham on Saturday but they will start at the County Ground alongside weekend substitutes Fernando Torres, Michael Essien and Cesar Azpilicueta.

Their inclusion in the third-round tie against a side sitting mid-table in the third tier will highlight their standing on the fringes of Mourinho’s squad, but while the manager expects them to press their claims for a recall, he has also provided a reminder that a failure to perform will reinforce his recent selection decisions.

“Against Swindon it will probably be good to play with some of these boys to get them confidence if we play well,” said the manager. “It is the type of game that can betray you. It can give you confidence or take your confidence. If we play well there, it will be a good game to play these boys.

“Naturally I have to make some changes and wait for some players to say, ‘I am you first choice – compulsory’. Some of the others when they don’t have strong effective performances, it’s normal we have some doubts. This is the process.”

Mata has been told he must adapt to a different role after Mourinho confirmed Oscar was his preferred choice in the playmaker, insisting the Spain international must show a willingness to accept a harder working role on the flanks. Steve Holland, Mourinho’s number two, believes the Spaniard will get the message.

“In this case, it’s a top professional footballer with a fantastic attitude,” Holland said. “He trained yesterday and there’s not a great deal to be said to Juan. He knows the score.” And added: “Jose has his own way, but he’s hard working like the other managers I’ve worked with here, his attention to detail is second to none.

“With Jose, as a difference, he’s pushing daily, pushing the players to the maximum every day. That’s evident not just in his team, but in the individuals he’s worked with.

“If you look Ronaldo’s three-year period under Jose, he’s evolved as an individual. He’s not just a dribbler, but a top level match winner who can run in behind, make runs and threaten the goal. That comes with pushing, even pushing the best. Whether it’s David, Frank [Lampard], Juan, Fernando or Ashley [Cole], he’ll be looking for signs of improvement for the benefit of the team.”

Not bad

runzlord: let me tell u whats wrong with blackberry, they have never recived such much traffic b4

Do you think so?

Manager Steve Clarke believes that West Brom can cause an upset in the League Cup when they face Arsenal at the Hawthorns on Wednesday.

Albion picked up their first league win of the season against Sunderland on Saturday and Clarke is hoping to see his squad maintain that form.

They face Arsenal – a side they have not beaten in three years – and although Arsene Wenger is expected to use some of the younger players in his squad, Clarke still has the visitors as favourites to progress.

"We can be dangerous underdogs," he told the club's official website. "As a team the last two performances have been good.

"Arsenal at home is a difficult game – it’s a good game.

"I’ve got a nice squad of players who all want to play. It's up to me to get the right mix on the pitch on Wednesday.

"I've got players who need to play and players who want to play.

"Hopefully winning on Wednesday night and progressing in the cup will be good for the squad, because we have a big squad, so the longer you stay in the cup competitions the better."

One player who will be pushing for a start is young striker Saido Berahino, who netted a hat-trick in the second-round win against Newport County.

Arsenal have triumphed on their last four visits to the Hawthorns and will be confident going into the tie after their victories over Marseille and Stoke in the last week.

Wenger has generally used the League Cup to introduce some of his young players, which means the likes of Emmanuel Frimpong, Serge Gnabry and Chuba Akpom could start.

One youngster who will not be involved is Gedion Zelalem after the midfielder was ruled out for two months earlier in September.

He is joined on the sidelines by Santi Cazorla (ankle), Abou Diaby (knee), Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (knee), Lukas Podolski (hamstring), Tomas Rosicky (thigh), Yaya Sanogo (back) and Theo Walcott (hip) as the injuries begin to mount for Wenger.

West Brom have fewer concerns, although they are without some important members of their squad.

Chris Brunt (groin), Ben Foster (foot) and Shane Long (hamstring) will all be missing for Albion, while Steven Reid (knock). Matej Vydra (hamstring) and George Thorne (knee) are doubtful for the clash.

Funny

More to follow...

ChiSun27: I had to read from page one to six to make sure I grasp all...Thanks to you OP and all those that intellectually contributed.

But I will still like you guys to shine more light on "cannot" and "can not".

Thanks.

That's very good.

Swindon Town manager Mark Cooper is excited at the prospect of pitting his wits against Jose Mourinho in the League Cup on Tuesday.

The League One outfit came through a first-round tie with Torquay United, before being rewarded for an impressive 2-0 success away at Queens Park Rangers with a third-round home draw against Chelsea.

And Cooper, who replaced Kevin MacDonald in charge at the County Ground last month, is relishing the chance for his side to take on such high-quality opposition.

"It's another fantastic test for the players," the 44-year-old said.

"It’s great for the club, I'm sure it will be a full house. It will be all about the players and the club and the fans.

"We'll prepare the best we can but we'll have to prepare to play against some of the best players in the world."

Swindon - who won the League Cup in 1969 as a Third Division side, beating Arsenal 3-1 in extra time -have had a mixed start to their League One campaign.

Cooper’s side have taken 11 points from their eight games so far, and occupy 11th place after their 3-2 win over Bristol City on Saturday.

Meanwhile, their Premier League opponents have had a similarly indifferent start to their own campaign, despite Mourinho’s much-heralded return to Stamford Bridge.

After consecutive home wins over Hull City and Aston Villa, Chelsea went four games without a win in all competitions - drawing with Manchester United before losing to Bayern Munich on penalties in UEFA Super Cup, Everton in the Premier League and Basel in the UEFA Champions League.

However, Mourinho's men bounced back at Stamford Bridge on Saturday with a 2-0 win over Fulham, thanks to goals from Oscar and John Obi Mikel.

Mourinho twice led Chelsea to League Cup glory in three years during his first spell in charge, beating Liverpool and Arsenal in the 2005 and 2007 finals to claim the club’s third and fourth triumphs overall.

His successor Avram Grant also took the side to the final in 2008, but they were beaten 2-1 by Tottenham in extra time.

Chelsea will be hoping for a repeat of the last time they met Swindon, when goals from Gavin Peacock and Dennis Wise handed them a 2-0 win in the Premier League in 1994.

But Swindon were victorious in the only previous League Cup meeting between the two, running out 3-0 winners back in 1963.

Juan Mata will start for Chelsea on Tuesday, Mourinho has confirmed, after the Spaniard was missing from the squad on Saturday.

Mourinho has also revealed that David Luiz, Michael Essien, Ryan Bertrand and Cesar Azpilicueta will all feature.
