Blatte 4 Life!
Arsene Holler...
Arsene Wenger is known as the The Professor but the halftime ear-bashing he inflicted on his Arsenal team at Anfield on Sunday had more in keeping with the “hairdryer” technique often used by his great rival Alex Ferguson.
It was out of character for the Frenchman but it certainly had the desired effect as his team overturned a 1-0 deficit to win 2-1 with a much-improved second half performance.
But why was he so animated?
Perhaps the reason was because he realised that Arsenal may never have a better opportunity to break the Manchester United/Chelsea domination of the Premier League.
Both of the top two appear vulnerable at the moment and Arsenal, despite losing to both of them already this season, are the best-equipped to muscle in on the title race.
Earlier this season Wenger stated that the Premier League could be won with a relatively low points total this season. Judging by recent results he looks like being proved right.
Chelsea are suddenly leaking goals at an alarming rate, United’s defeat at home to Aston Villa illustrated just how much they are missing the departed Cristiano Ronaldo, Liverpool are going backwards and Manchester City are yet to maximise the huge amount of money spent on their team.
With a couple of good signings in January, Wenger and Arsenal may have plenty to shout about in 2010.

About
Blatte United Story...
Blatte United was founded in 2004 by a small group of Swedish expats based in New York City.
The ex-pats came to enhance their career in America. But whether their careers were in Advertising, Finance, Restaurants or Movies, they all had one thing in common, an unyielding passion for the game.
Word eventually spread throughout New York about the club and its players. Soon, not only other well-known stars, but also former national team soccer players asked to join. Since then we have enjoyed a lot of success on the pitch as well as some excellent times off it (including some great off the field adventures).
What makes our team unique is its rich mix of individuals, a truly cosmopolitan squad who play football for the love it and in the spirit it should be played. It is this common attitude and our collective backgrounds as sons (and daughters) of immigrant families that bind us together. We are also proud of being perhaps the only football club to have the word 'Blatte' appear in its name!
We are also committed to an alternative football culture that actively challenges the corporate dominance of the game. We support an ideal of internationalism and friendship in football which can stand in opposition to the racism and violence which still persists in some areas of the game. We see football as a common cause that can bring people together and promote peace and understanding.
On our website site you can read about the team's latest developments, from the most recent match report to forthcoming tours. Here also you can get the latest news about the squad, read player profiles and take part in discussions.
