This live commentary and play by play soccer match in the English Premier League between West Ham United and Chelsea at Upton Park promises to be a cracking game between a team that has upset many big teams like Manchester United and Liverpool at their own ground and a team that has gone from a great run over the turn of the year to now that is sinking into crisis yet again after their early season departure of the Special One Jose Mourinho. After the embarrassing Carling Cup final loss to Tottenham Hotspur last weekend, Avram Grant is now facing questions over his ability to actually lead a soccer team and whether he possesses any football brains. Perhaps he should really get started on his coaching certification as it might actually teach him a thing or two about fielding the right team and not giving in to pressure from your bunch of prima donna players like John Terry and Frank Lampard, especially Terry who should really be benched and not picked for England anymore.

West Ham United on the other hand continue to surprise many including myself in this live commentary and radio broadcast soccer match in the English Premier League between West Ham United and Chelsea as they have caused a few major upsets by beating the big teams, even though Liverpool cannot now be considered a big team by any means as they struggle even to beat Barnsley with a team of established players. Alan Curbishley has now established himself firmly in the books as a manager who can lead mediocre clubs to stability like he did with Charlton and now West Ham United. He has bought well and developed the youth players by bringing them into the senior side without fear and allowing them to flourish. Some astute management has also led to players like Upson cracking into the England national team under Fabio Capello and this live commentary and TV telecast soccer match in the English Premier League between West Ham United and Chelsea should see them continue to do well and put Chelsea under pressure.

If Avram Grant fields his performing players like Michael Ballack and Alex for Chelsea tonight in this live commentary and radio broadcast soccer match in the English Premier League between West Ham United and Chelsea, then perhaps they might stand a good chance of walking away with a point or all three points in this encounter. However, if he chickens out again and picks his prima donnas like Lampard and Terry, then the stability and balance of the team will once again be threatened and don’t be surprised if West Ham United takes full advantage of this and makes life difficult for the fashionable London team who was shown up by another poorer London team in Tottenham Hotspur. One thing is for sure, this live commentary and TV telecast English Premier League soccer match between West Ham United and Chelsea should see a very tight game with few chances, many niggly fouls, a vociferous home crowd and many soccer dramatics.

This live commentary and play by play soccer match in the English Premier League between Newcastle and Blackburn Rovers might actually see the beginning of the end for the Kevin Keegan second coming and false dawn of hope. In fact, if Newcastle owner Mike Ashley and management had any footballing brains they might have tried splashing out the big money for Blackburn Rovers manager Mark Hughes to join the club instead of Kevin Keegan, who would do better in personal development and self improvement seminar spouting ideals than actual real football tactics to his players who look even worse now than under Sam Allardyce. At least Allardyce could still force out the occasional draw but Keegan’s version of Newcastle is now getting hammered game after game. The saving grace is that most of the players are not Keegan’s anyway and he might have done better if he had started the season but how much better really with a man of his record in this modern time in soccer?

Mark Hughes on the other hand might be in danger of the soccer wilderness at Blackburn in this live commentary and radio broadcast English Premier League soccer match if he manages to lose to Newcastle and that could happen given the utter inconsistency his team has displayed this season which has been worse than previous seasons, although they have always done more than enough to avoid relegation and have even challenged on some levels. Blackburn are a tough tough team to break down given their hard school of soccer and incredible levels of fitness especially since some of the players aren’t the youngest you would expect to see in EPL teams. However, they are capable of playing some attractive soccer and are actually a modest version of Manchester United in that Mark Hughes tries to get the team to play through wingers although everything is a low budget version which is still effective as you will witness in this live commentary and TV telecast English Premier League soccer match between Newcastle and Blackburn Rovers.

So can Newcastle under Kevin Keegan finally break its duck and secure a win in this live commentary and radio broadcast soccer match in the English Premier League between Newcastle and Blackburn Rovers and provide much needed relief and joy to the thousands of Newcastle fans at Tyneside and around the world who have been taken on a ride for far too long by the Newcastle management who have squandered the club’s funds irresponsibly and Sam Allardyce must take a large part of the blame as well for buying players who have been way more expensive but lesser quality than those he managed to get during his time at Bolton and you must be wondering what the hell happened to his scouting network or abilities or maybe he was just too taken in by the riches he experienced at Newcastle compared to Bolton. This one would be tough to call but do not be surprised if there are more dramatics witness with a Kevin Keegan team in this live commentary and TV telecast English Premier League soccer match between Newcastle and Blackburn Rovers.

This live commentary and play by play soccer match in the English Premier League between Fulham and Manchester United will feature a team that has way too many players who come from a developing soccer nation the United States against a team full of established players that will run rings around American soccer players who are nothing more than fitness machines and can run endlessly but not much else at the moment as they lack the technical skills and footballing brains at this stage to go far until they have developed it further. Unfortunately, with a manager like Roy Hodgson at the helm, Fulham cannot expect too much and if they were to be relegated to the Championship, then perhaps they can benefit from the man because he will do well at second tier leagues like the ones he prospered in during his other managerial stints across Europe.

Manchester United on the other hand should not have to move beyond first gear for a win in this live commentary and radio broadcast soccer match in the English Premier League. In fact, Alex Ferguson might rest a few key players for this match, even if they need to win to keep in touch with Arsenal, he knows Fulham are no competition despite the game being played at Craven Cottage. The keen eye will be on the upcoming midweek Champions League encounter with Lyon which might be tougher although I beg to differ since the French team is managed by none other than Alain Perrin who absolutely sucked in the English Premier League with Portsmouth and showed his competence when Lyon could only draw with Manchester United at home in the first leg. Do not be surprised if Ronaldo and some other players get rested for this live commentary and TV telecast English Premier League soccer game as their legs would be needed for the bigger money of Champions League football. With a second string side, Manchester United can expect to score a few goals against the United States national team, much less a Fulham side shorn of quality.

Expect another straightforward win for Manchester United in this live commentary and radio broadcast soccer match in the English Premier League between Fulham and Manchester United, and plenty of goals. Fulham might be able to score one or two themselves if Ferguson leaves a few of his regulars out, but for them to get anything out of this game would be a dream and after that embarrassing loss to Manchester City a few weeks ago, Ferguson has demanded that no such comedy routine ever repeats itself again this season by his charges and they will all be determined to show Arsenal and the rest of the league who’s boss in this live commentary and tv telecast soccer match in the EPL between Fulham and Manchester United.
