Eduardo to continue stay at Arsenal

Earlier this week, Gunner striker Eduardo agreed to sign a long term contract with the Gunners. Although suffering the severe leg injury just last year, he has returned to excellent form. He is performing pretty well with 18 goals in 48 games; obviously not too many but he will certainly be back to his prior form in not to long. Arsenal head coach, Wenger, has praised him on many occasions as well speaking highly of his strength and courage to be able to return to play after such a severe injury. Best of luck to Eduardo in his future endeavors at the Emirates as Arsenal are currently placed in second in the EPL and look to advance to 1st over the Blues.

Also, this has been a week full of World Cup qualification matches with only months remaining before the kick of off the 2010 World Cup. For the full schedule as well as results, please visit the ESPNsoccer link to the left.

Chelsea gains Hiddink and Eduardo returns for Arsenal

Exactly 1 week ago, Chelsea sacked Scolari for how the team was doing in the league. Now, a week later Anelka and Drogba finally discuss how had Scolari played them together, the results could have been better. Wait a minute. Your telling me that it took these two guys this long for them to announce that had Scolari played them together, he would not have been sacked. Why didn't they speak earlier?
As a result, Chelsea have now hired Russian head coach Hiddink. He will be taking over for the remainder of Chelsea's season with hopes to possibly winning the league although it may be somewhat of a stretch. Hiddink has been given honorary South Korean citizenship, an offer to be officially Russian and even a political campaign for him to be Australian prime minister. Clearly, this man has gained loads of respect from his people, but can he turn the Blues into a championship side again or will Man U take the league once again?

As for Arsenal and Wenger, they certainly will be glad to have Eduardo back on the field. About one year ago, Eduardo went down due to a brutal slide tackle and was forced to have surgery and regain strength for this amount of time (1 year). However, he made sure is presence was more than just appreciated, In Arsenal's game against Cardiff City, Eduardo was able to score two and end with a fabulous day. Hopefully, this young Arsenal squad will develop some more and definitely be contenders for the league in years to come.
