ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE MATCHDAY 5

A week break for international duty and the EPL resumed for the Match Day 5. The international duty has soared England to eventually qualify for next year’s World Cup in South Africa with styles, indulging a 100% win record in the qualifying stage along with Netherlands, Brazil, Australia and Japan among others.

Back home, EPL matches last weekend saw both Chelsea and Manchester City continued their impressive run for 100% win while Portsmouth became the only team pointless, rotting down on the bottom of the table.

Man of the week this week was none other than Liverpool’s Israeli midfield, Youssi Benayoun whom had scored a pulsating hattrick to help Koppers trashed out Burnley by 4 goals to none.

Benayoun was exceptional but I am likely disappointed with Everton. They were ranked 5 in 2008/09 season and look like they are sinking down!
