			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The week after the Premier League season is a tough test for football fans. They know that a discussion of nine long months of great goals, the tactics of football and controversial chicken must come to an end, so that football fans with a terrible hangover.</p>
<p>So it&#8217;s a natural reaction for the fans to look back and analyze every possible point of speaking of the season. Who was the best player, the best team, the biggest disappointment? The same questions are asked every year, knowing that through these talks next week does not exist anymore.</p>
<p>However, this season was to remember, and on Sunday in the Premier League with one of the largest in the history of football ends at the end. This hangover will last longer than most.</p>
<p>Man City for 44 years waiting for the glory of their neighbors were horrible five minutes. At the score of 2-1 to QPR to play and down time only, <span id="more-803"></span>Roberto Mancini seemed on the brink of madness. However, it came to Edin Dzeko headed the compensation for Man City in the stadium again. Aguero then showed the winning touch of class that made the worthy champions Manchester United this season.</p>
<p>The red side of Manchester has everything they could with a 2-0 victory over Sunderland did. For most 90 minutes Man Utd was the name on the trophy. So it was a difficult day for the champions of last season as a league title 20 was not in their stars.</p>
<p>Under the excitement of Man City, QPR&#8217;s fate as a tense part of the field was in the game after being dominated by Mancini page for most of the game, heading clumsy Joleon Lescott allowed Djibril Cisse to level the score. Mark Hughes&#8217;s nerves were tested, how much his captain Joey Barton has been turned off for the implementation of wildly Carlos Tevez and elbow sent him in the face. Then Jamie Mackie looked like he had hit the winner. Even with 10 men, no one could have guessed that Man City have to beat QPR 3-2. Ultimately the outcome is no longer relevant for QPR that Bolton could only draw 2-2 with Stoke and were relegated from the Premier League.</p>
<p>It is only in an Olympic year, the bronze medal place in the Premier League on an added significance. Arsenal and West Brom on the link in this exciting race made available, as there were several fatal errors on both sides to secure it before with Arsenal in third place with a 3-2 victory ended. While the new England manager Roy Hodgson has left West Brom in defeat, secured the fan favorite Harry Redknapp Tottenham with fourth place and has now been a week before the expected Thurs Chelsea FC Bayern Munich in the final of the Champions League hot.</p>
<p>A final day with so many exciting voltage, and the last breaths of pure jubilation soccer fans give a lot of sterile at the time (discuss forgetting, of course, there is the Champions League final, championship play-offs and a European Championship to follow) and will soon be time to look forward to be entertained by us again for the new season with new faces and new rivalries.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Manchester City holds the reins of Barclays with a margin of eight goals in the Red Devils, after a victory won by Yaya Toure.</p>
<p>Manchester clubs will continue the war to the bitter end of their match of the campaign, because this series has made no changes in the top rankings, triumphed for two locations on this tour. In fact, they are not only still in points, but separated by the same number of goals, because they have the same score in its 37th Sharing devices. The citizens began itinerary football Sunday from their visit to Toons and after commissioning of the triumph of the table, opened a three-point gap, which lasted an hour to play their own kingdom. Sir Alex Ferguson instead of Swansea hosted the closing game of the day they won by two goals in the first half.</p>
<p>Fell at the Sports Arena Direct goals in the last 20 minutes of the game, better late than never, though. Start of the Sky Blues have dominated in fact, during the first game, the third Silva, Aguero and Tevez had put clear pressure on Tim Krul, the shots of the Ibero-American trio. The Magpies had their chances after the first 30 minutes, but were stopped by Joe Hart. Reach the center of the breaks were civil control and attack again, and at the beginning of the second half, but suddenly she started to lie back on the host property.</p>
<p>Felt in the Italian boss Roberto Mancini as his team needed a change and replace Nasri with Nigel de Jong, Touré helped move forward behind the strikers. <span id="more-801"></span>The setting of the orientation of the citizens has produced a great impact on their performance and at 70 it was the first brand. While taking the ball closer to the remote rivals, Yaya Toure Gnégnéri Cabaye fool, close behind, made a pass to Sergio Aguero only touched the ball to make it to the Ivory Coast, the return had time to get a better location to to get to load. Then come to the end of double attack (89 &#8216;) and short travel distance midfield again, the ball across Krul and took the lead over Newcastle.</p>
<p>Received late Sunday, Manchester United defeated the only Welsh club in the Premier League, Swansea City and, as previously mentioned, the visitors with two goals. The first was Paul Scholes in the 28th and 4 minutes for the interval Ashley Young received the score sheet as well. The confrontation ended with a 2-0 victory for the hosts, but not the number of goals was clearly sufficient to reduce the city has the advantage in goal difference. However, the victory was Ferguson optimistic about the chance of his men next Sunday, May 13, 2012, acquisition of its 20th Titles have left, though, to have the Red Devils lost to QPR and City or Sunderland and crush with the advantage of at least 9 goals, which seems a bit unlikely.</p>
<p>On the other hand, the second club Blackburn officially relegated to the Championship 2012-13, after which Wigan on Monday, 7 The Latics have of course to beat Rovers to out of danger, because he was on the scene 17 to just 2 points above the 18th Bolton remains. Wigan is now safe with 40 points, two positions above and left Queens Park Rangers in the dock, waiting for the Sky Blues.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is always a reaction from the fans of national teams provoked when the names of their favorite players &#8220;are excluded from the team to play in a game or participate in a major tournament. Each fan is an expert, Alex Ferguson, who will may be a million reasons why Player A should have been included in the squad.</p>
<p>In fact, football is much more complex than that. Some players can use in their clubs are characterized by the position they play, and into or through the formation of the club managers often assume. May adopt the national team manager a different type of training or they may not have a vacancy in their team, the players in a position to maximize their potential and ultimately to the success of the suit team that actually the last game.</p>
<p>A lot more factors that go into this course. Some can simply be explained in a press conference and understood the reasons and appreciated if it is not accepted. Others, however, can be explained in secret and tried to fall why Player A was allowed to be wrapped, for example, could lead to more questions asked. Nicolas Anelka explain omission of several French squadrons over the years could easily get along with him not as the leaders of national and disciplinary matters.<span id="more-799"></span></p>
<p>But only a few invitations to Mario Jardel of Brazil&#8217;s national team 1994-2002, when he was one of the most prolific strikers in Europe leaves many questions unanswered. At one point he was the best scorer in Europe in two consecutive seasons between 1998 and 2000. Of course, people have come to their own conclusions. Some said, &#8220;his playing was too European to fit into the style of South American samba as Brazil adopted.&#8221; Whatever the reasons, it is reasonable to assume that an attacker of his caliber should have been given more opportunities to represent his country.</p>
<p>Below I have a list of five names of prominent players who were conspicuous by their absence when the squad lists were published, furnished with some basic information for parents.</p>
<p>This is David Beckham, Romario, Raul, Sunday Oliseh and Roy Keane.</p>
<p>David Beckham of England (2006): Steve McClaren took over England manager after the departure of the beleaguered coach Sven Goran Eriksson in 2006. When he presented his first team for a friendly match against Greece on 16 August 2006 David Beckham was conspicuously absent.</p>
<p>McClaren made it clear that he was &#8220;out of change&#8221; and that Beckham &#8211; at least for now -. &#8220;Was not part of the change,&#8221; McClaren has hinted that he favors a speed of a winger, was able to run the defense, move with the ball and cause various types of problems.</p>
<p>Beckham, however, would make a return to the England team in qualifying for Euro 2008 was in danger. It was his cross that sublime actually chose Peter Crouch with his chest and volleyed 02.02 clock to make it against Croatia in their final qualifier at Wembley Stadium on 21 November 2007. He came as a substitute for Shaun Wright-Phillips. But England would lose 2-3 and miss the tournament to criticize the coach &#8211; among other reasons &#8211; not to play Beckham from the start, he was quickly released.</p>
<p>Posts by David Beckham at Manchester United had described as a future star and he was the first time on the England team on 1 September 1996 called upon to play against Moldova. However, it was something like a public enemy number one when it was sent irritated against rivals Argentina in the second round of the 1998 World Cup in France. He was seen kicking Simeone, Argentine player on the floor, it was shown at his command. England later in the penalty shoot-out with David Beckham seems to lose much of the debt from a British press and an angry public company evil.</p>
<p>Time is a great healer and in time, Beckham started her warm up again in the hearts of the British press and British public. He began to turn, to the consistent and sometimes brilliant performances for both club and country. He played a central role in the Manchester United team that won the historic triple the FA Cup, Premier League and Champions League in season 1998-99. He scored the last goal in the last game for United this season against Tottenham Hotspur and also supplied, which led to two corners remarkable comeback kingdom against Bayern Munich in the Champions League final 02.01 clock to win after trailing edge at 00: 01 clock up to 90 minutes.</p>
<p>His redemption was complete for England, when &#8220;Kick it like Beckham&#8221; hit his free kick against Greece fabulous 6th October 2001 puts the British flag at the FIFA World Cup 2002 in Japan and Korea would be flown south. England needs at least a draw in their last group match to qualify for the World Cup, but lost 1-2 at Old Trafford in Manchester, much to the disappointment of their fans. In about 91 minutes, Teddy Sheringham &#8211; who had made 1:1 to England earlier &#8211; was found to be contaminated on the outside of the box 18 yards. Mr. David Beckham Boosts who reported bravely volunteered to take the resulting free-kick right behind the wall and wrapped it into the net. The Greek goalkeeper Antonis Nikopolidis was reduced to a mere spectator, as he could only watch the ball into the roof of the net. The entire stadium burst into scenes of joy and jubilation that would have equally felt by the fans watching TV screens pubs up and down the country and view it on TV in the comfort of their homes.</p>
<p>His marriage to Victoria Adams of Spice Girls popular British Female Pop-Group 4 July 1999, created a global brand &#8211; the lifestyle of celebrities, personalities of public life, economic interests and longevity of the marriage that is blessed with four children to this day &#8211; who took great pride in the nation.</p>
<p>David Beckham is the end of his career and now plays his club football for LA Galaxy in California rather than in the United States. He suggested he would play for Team GB (Great Britain) at the Summer Olympics next year in London, England, to be held, it would be 37 years old by then. Beckham will want to temper his ambition to win a major tournament with England with the reality that he does not really &#8220;Bend It Like Beckham&#8221; about how to use it.</p>
<p>Romario (full name: Romario de Souza Faria) Brazil (1998 and 2002): Named as one of the 125 greatest living footballers by FIFA, will forget as Romario inspired Brazil to win the FIFA 1994 World Cup in the United States. He scored five goals in the tournament and won the World Cup Golden Ball</p>
<p>Despite his immense skills and stunning goals, his name would be conspicuously absent from brigades from Brazil to participate in the tournaments between 1998 and 2002 FIFA World Cup.</p>
<p>Health reasons were given for his exclusion from the team to participate at the World Cup France 98th He was in Brazil that preceded the tournament fruitful. In February 1998 he scored one goal each against Guatemala and El Salvador respectively. He called a press conference on 2 June 1998 in Lesigny, France and the fans were visibly upset when talking about the fact that it is not the Mundial. &#8220;It is very sad for me, a big disappointment,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Going to start This is a very difficult time in my life. From now on, I value other things. I just wish the national team for giving me the chance to thank that I am.&#8221; He broke down and cried several times, before they were taken to a standing ovation.</p>
<p>It was said that medical tests showed he had a muscle injury to the back of his leg and could &#8211; or not &#8211; time to heal or during the tournament. The decision was taken by those responsible for the national team dropped him, much to the dismay of the vast majority are the Brazilians. Brazil finally reach the final defeat against France in a one-sided final that ended 3-0 to host.</p>
<p>Discipline is assumed that the reason for the rejection of Romario 36 years of the team that Brazil will be represented at the 2002 World Cup held in Japan and Korea. It was indeed a consistent form for club and country, the tournament ahead. He scored four goals against Venezuela in a World Cup qualifier against Venezuela scored three and one month earlier in 2000. He formed a formidable partnership with the legendary Ronaldo. Brazil to happen in his absence, to win the tournament, beat a gallant 02:00 German side.</p>
<p>Just like four years ago, Brazilians were massively disappointed by his exclusion. The coach Phil Scolari has strongly defended his decision to leave to the reader. He claimed that he had faith in the strikers he had chosen, it was him and not 170 million Brazilian fans who had coached the national team win or lose, and he was willing to deal with the consequences of their decisions.</p>
<p>Remains a legend Romario in Brazilian football after winning the world championship in 1994, the Confederation Cup 1997 and the Copa America in 1989 and 1997, respectively with the national team. It remains a household name in circles around the football world. He is in politics these days.</p>
<p>Raul (full name: Raul Gonzalez): After scoring 23 goals in all competitions for Real Madrid in the 2007-2008 season and played a role in qualifying for Euro 2008 in Spain, we can be forgiven for thinking that &#8211; injuries permitting &#8211; Raul would automatically make the team for the tournament. This hypothesis would like the name of Raul was conspicuously absent from the final team went lost.</p>
<p>An attacker fatally, Raul scored 44 goals for Spain 1990-2006 and currently holds the record as the player of the Spanish national team record with about 102 performances to date. As talented as he is, but unfortunately there is a generation of Spanish players, the perennial underachievers in major tournaments were as often shows a gap between potential and performance. For example, much is expected of him and his teammates at the 1998 World Cup in France. However, they did the first round to win a single match. In Euro 2000 co-hosts Belgium and the Netherlands, Spain reached the quarter finals but lost to world champions 01:02 Coupe de France with Raul missed a last-minute penalty which, if it was, the game would have forced overtime. Fernando Morientes and Raul with Joan Capdevila was part of a team of talented, but unfortunately in Spanish, is beyond the group stage at Euro 2004 in Portugal failed to progress.</p>
<p>A new generation of Spanish players have now that actually shed the image of the past. This so-called golden generation includes players like Fernando Torres, David Villa, Cesc Fabregas and Xabi Alonso. You already have the European Championship (EURO 2008) and the World Cup (South Africa 2010), the two tournaments that Raul was entitled to win, but ignored. The loss of form is believed to be the reason, excluded from the squad was to participate in two tournaments.</p>
<p>It is the emergence of promising young players like Alvaro Negredo Seville and Pedro Rodriguez of Barcelona seems to continue to account for the exclusion of Raul&#8217;s national team. This may be of Torres and Villa better for him between 2008 and 2010. It is close to be reasonable that Luis Aragones and Vicente Del Bosque &#8211; two managers of the national team that he has seen recently &#8211; a break with the past, wanted to find a new perspective and outlook for the group of Spanish nationality, finally, we can not keep doing the same thing the same way and expecting a different result.</p>
<p>Raul, who has to his credit never given a red card in his career to date, currently plays for German club Schalke 04 He is a striker and has had three hat tricks in the club, he moved won at least two years. It is the record scorer in World Cup Champions League with 71 goals.</p>
<p>At the age of 34 years, a return to the Spanish national team is not beyond the limits of possibility. But with each passing day and the emergence of young, bright, energetic and talented attacker Spanish, these possibilities seem increasingly remote.</p>
<p>Sunday Oliseh of Nigeria (2002): Shakira &#8211; the feeling of South American music &#8211; said in one of his songs that do not lie his hips, &#8220;Well, were Sunday Oliseh feet are not lying when his right foot has a powerful shot from outside the box. published 18 meters drilled to a 3-2 lead at home and victory for Nigeria against Spain to France in the FIFA World Cup 1998. not lie both feet.</p>
<p>Moreover, this goal would Oliseh last goal of the World Cup and 1998 World Cup in France, his last appearance for his country to be. Although he for selection to participate in the World Cup in 2002 in Japan and South Korea is available, his name was conspicuously absent when the company in Nigeria, was released on to the tournament.</p>
<p>Oliseh had played a central role in Nigeria to qualify for the Mundial in 2002. He was solid in his role as a defensive midfielder that his country has qualified from a group of Liberia, the legendary George Weah and included bitter rivals Ghana, West Africa. Nigeria displace 16 points just 15 points on Liberia. Several big names including Finidi George and Victor Ikpeba would &#8211; but excluded from the squad of Nigeria World Cup &#8211; with Oliseh.</p>
<p>Oliseh become the darling of the Nigerian football, loved and revered at home and abroad was known and respected. He played his first game for the Super Eagles of Nigeria 24th July 1993 in an African Nations Cup qualifier against Ethiopia played in Lagos, Nigeria. For nearly 10 years, he made the position of defensive midfielder in the national team of private property, where he dictated the game and bombed Pass it both creative and destructive defensive was midfield, creating opportunities for his teammates short-range and long attack passes intelligent one hand and pinch the opponent moves the ovum, the other tackles are often fast and accurate with. It was simply a joy to watch.</p>
<p>In 1998, he was prematurely retired from international football, but was convinced by the press of them, millions of Nigerian fans and the NFA (Nigerian Football Association) &#8220;Please come back!&#8221; On He canceled and Nigeria led instead to the second place at the African Cup of Nations jointly by Nigeria and Ghana in 2000.</p>
<p>Indiscipline was the reason given for his exclusion from the team to participate at the World Cup in Japan and Korea in 2002. It was reported that Oliseh &#8211; with other leading members of the team, including George Finidi &#8211; excessively diverted a dispute with the Nigerian football officials, the team had at the African Cup of Nations held earlier the same year in Mali. It is believed to have contributed to the overall poor team in the tournament. However, they came third. The dispute was over unpaid allowances and refunds of tickets.</p>
<p>Festus Onigbinde, named the coach after the African Cup of Nations was rejected immediately Oliseh&#8217;s provisional 35 man squad has been published in the preparations for the World Cup. There were signs that could be called back to good tournament, but it never happened. He retired from international football shortly after and this time it was for good.</p>
<p>In his absence, the Super Eagles of Nigeria plunged into the tournament in the first round, their first two games lost to Argentina and Sweden respectively, and played a scoreless game against England in their final group game rather boring.</p>
<p>Oliseh retired from football in January 2006 and now maintains a website called http://www.sundayoliseh.tv where he shares his knowledge with the world of football. He recently commented failure of Nigeria to the African Nations Cup qualifying in 2012 suggesting that this &#8220;sends the wrong signals about the place of Nigeria in African football.&#8221;</p>
<p>Roy Keane for the Republic of Ireland (2002): Not in a long time Irish football was a character larger than life, like Roy Keane. He played a pivotal role in midfield in Ireland in qualifying for the FIFA World Cup in 2002, but his name was conspicuously absent from the Irish team in the tournament.</p>
<p>Ireland had dramatically for the 2002 World Cup qualifying from a group that included the European heavyweights Portugal and the Netherlands. They actually went undefeated through the whole scene of the qualification and only came in second behind Portugal among the various goals. Keane was in the heart of the Irish midfielder often with &#8220;Man of the Match&#8221; solid performance. He scored three goals in the qualifiers.</p>
<p>However, he missed the tournament because of a rift between him and the FAI (Football Association of Ireland). He was what he saw as the inadequate preparations for Ireland&#8217;s World Cup disappointment. He was unhappy about the travel arrangements, the training ground, training facilities, and the late arrival of equipment, training of the crew, among others. Everything came to a head when the coach Mick McCarthy decided to have a word with Keane &#8211; before the members of other teams &#8211; such as a recent interview he gave to the Irish Times expressed his views on the preparations for the Irish team. Keane took the opportunity to coach exactly what he thought about him. He said that Mick McCarthy &#8220;a liar&#8221; who have never seen a player and he does not judge it as a coach, &#8220;was either. He grumbled and cursed for about ten minutes when he told the coach to&#8221; stick his ox, &#8220;said the source. described Keane as a player this tirade violent and distressing to the recipient.</p>
<p>The coach quickly and announced a press conference shortly after Keane was dismissed from the team. In his absence, the Republic of Ireland in the second round before losing on penalties to Spain 3:02 after the game had ended would reach to 1.01 after extra time.</p>
<p>Roy Keane is a Manchester United football legend and one Irish. He had contributed to Ireland in the FIFA World Cup finals in the USA in 1994 where they fell and were eliminated in the second round of the Dutch side, after imposing a strenuous beaten tournament favorites &#8211; Italy &#8211; 1-0 in the group stage. Their elimination in the second round, she won despite heroes at the ceremony held back in Phoenix Park in Dublin, on patriotic and enthusiastic fans with Irish Irish flags waving welcome in the air with joy. Roy Keane was honored for his immense contributions, although he thought it was not much to celebrate, because the team had &#8211; in his words &#8211; &#8220;A little achieved.&#8221;</p>
<p>He made about 480 applications for Manchester for just over a decade. A powerful center / defensive midfielder, his uncompromising style of play. It should be approached as a rule, a game like a soldier going to war. From his position, he was the tempo and mode of the game, not a lounge shy attacks disrupt initiatives to attack opponents and would often beg to move forward and his teammates to dictate to lose that. His winning mentality made him his manager Sir Alex Ferguson.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A fractionation tower gave us six games that have not caused much change in the rankings, but two points rays clubs in Manchester and a new surprise of Wigan.</p>
<p>This series has been divided because of the role played Everton Liverpool vs. Chelsea vs. Tottenham and the FA Cup 14-15 April 2012.
