There were some great Champions League games last night, including the Liverpool match, Marseilles could of nearly of got a winner at the end, but Gerrard’s goal was a deserved winner.
Betting tips
We’ll try and ease ourselves in the Champions League betting this season, so bet on over 1.5 goals in the Juventus v Zenit St Petersburg match at odds of 1.34, hopefully it will be an open match like I’ve seen in the past Zenit games.
Fun bet- With all the England players Cole, Lampard and Gerrard scoring yesterday, lets got for a small fun, bet on Wayne Rooney to score at anytime against Villarreal at odds of 2.8. Let’s pray Rooney follows the good example set by his England teammates!!
UPDATE- In the end it was a tight match and the two teams could only muster one goal between them and there wasn’t quite the amount of goals as I expected. A better value would of been to lay Lyon at odds of 1.75 against Fiorentina, that’s the benefit of hindsight!!!

So after months of trying to find the best person to suceed John Terry as captian, who does Capello choose? John Terry of course!! Well at least Terry can confidentaly say he can live up to the last permanent England captain.
Betting tip- John Terry will want to make a big impression in his first (well sort of) game as captain, hopefully it will be at the right end of the pitch for England, so back him in a fun bet to score at anytime on Betfair at odds of 11.0 against his Chelsea teamate Cech. You may also want to back Lampard as well at odds of 4.8.
Update- Backing Terry to score didn’t come off, but another defender Wes Brown was the man to score. A losing fun bet, but hopefully it added some interest to a bland England game.

It’s been a long long summer,the night where Spain won their first piece of silverware for over 40 years feels like months ago(are you sure it really happened?). With the talk of the credit crunch looming, it’s great to see footballers are leading by example and taking pay cuts, Arsenal’s Adebayour will have to survive on only £4 million a year and Robbie Keane will only make the paltry sum of £20 million over the next 4 years. How will they survive?
With the Premiership starting, all talk will be on who will lift the title at the end of the season and what team will be dropping down in to the Championship.
