EPL: Manchester United vs. Chelsea Tactical Preview
Manchester United takes on Chelsea at Old Trafford in a game that for many will decide the destination of the English Premier League title for this season.
With just three games to go, the two teams left standing after all the dust has settled are just separated by three points with an equal goal difference.
In other words, whoever wins this game should take the title and when all is said and done, this game for all intents and purposes is a final.

Luis Suarez to Liverpool Could be the First Step in Fernando Torres Leaving
Liverpool FC is closing in on the signature of the Ajax centre forward Luis Suarez. However, the signing immediately begs two questions:
1) Why sign Suarez when the rest of team needs undoubted strengthening? And maybe more importantly,
2) Does Suarez coming in speed up the departure of Fernando Torres?

Fernando Torres Declares His Future To Liverpool Under Intense Pressure
The old adage that no player is more important than his team came into focus today as Kenny Huang announced that his proposed Liverpool takeover depended upon the club keeping Fernando Torres at the club.
Needless to say, the Spanish striker, who just returned to pre-season training on Monday, announced that his "commitment and loyalty to the club and to the fans is the same as it was on my first day when I signed," and that he was looking forward to the new season with the Reds.

Fernando Torres To Put Country Ahead of Club and Elect for Surgery
Just when you thought Liverpool's current woes could not get any worse.
If reports in Spain are to be believed the Spanish FA are pressuring Fernando Torres to undergo surgery on his hernia as soon as possible so that the striker will be fit heading into the World Cup come June.
With Liverpool's season evaporating into a cloud of empty dreams, the liklyhood of Torres electing to move the surgery forward is becoming a very real possibility.

Five Steps For Liverpool To Win The Premier League

Liverpool are as far from winning the Premier League as at any time during their last 20 barren years. But as ever, there is an optimism in the air. After all, Manchester United went 26 years without a trophy, and we all know how the last two decades have gone.

REDemption for Rafael Benitez as "10-Man" Liverpool Beat "9-Man" United 2-0
Ten man Liverpool beat "nine" man Manchester United 2-0 at Anfield in a pulsating clash where both sides went at each other as if it was a cup final.
Both Nemanja Vidic and Javier Mascherano saw red as Fernando Torres scored the opening goal and the unlikely David Ngog coolly slotted the second past the returning Edwin Van der Sar.

Manchester United Still on an Inter-Mission While Liverpool Prove the Real Deal
Liverpool came to Old Trafford and conquered. A stunning 4-1 win over their rivals Manchester United has thrown the title race wide open and has given the Anfield giants an outside chance of winning that elusive title.

Liverpool Not Firing On All Cylinders at Start Of Season. Is The Title a Dream?

Despite getting off to the best possible start with two wins from two games, Liverpool have laboured to defeat North East rivals Sunderland and Middlesbrough respectively.
Last week after a lacklustre performance, it took a moment of magic late on by Fernando Torres to secure the win over Roy Keane's unlucky Sunderland. The Wearsiders had dominated most of the match but unless you take your chances against a team containing players like Torres, Gerrard and Robbie Keane 0-0 is never a safe scoreline. Liverpool came away with the three points, but in a game they were expected to win they barely got out of jail.
