The English Premier League

Because the league is coming up soon, i decided to look at almost each team's squad profile. just to get a feel as to who i should be rooting for. some people have said that chelsea, liverpool, and man utd are the teams to beat. arsenal is also strong. and i saw why:

arsenal has got the following players:
german goalkeeper jens lehmann, england's ashley cole and theo walcott
switzerland's philippe senderos, spain's francesc fabregas
czech's tomas rosicky, sweden's fredrick ljungberg and sebastian larsson
holland's robin van persie, france's thierry henry
and togo's emmanuel adebayor

chelsea also have good players:
portugal's paolo ferreira, england's john terry, joe cole and frank lampard
ghana's michael essien, holland's arjen robben
germany's captain michael ballack, argentina's hernan crespo
cote d'ivoire's didier drogba and ukraine's andriy shevchenko

liverpool is just as star-studded as the first two:
australia's harry kewell
england's jamie carragher, stevie G and peter crouch (though i still hate this guy)
spain's luis garcia and xabi alonso

finally, man utd has got:
england's gary neville, rio ferdinand and wayne rooney
portugal's ronaldo (though if i'm not mistaken he's leaving for real madrid)
holland's van nistelrooy and van der sar, korea's ji-sung park
serbia/montenegro's nemanja vidic

other good players are scattered all over the EPL:
tottenham hotspur has england's paul robinson, jermaine defoe, michael carrick and aaron lennon
newcastle united has michael owen
fullham with US' carlos bocanegra and teammate brian mcbride
everton keeps australia's tim cahill and portugal's nuno valente

and now that fifa worldcup fantasy sports is over, it's now time to play the english premier league fantasy sports. this is wild!!!
