    Interesting blog on the Premier League. The success of Manchester United has undoubtedly contributed to the success for the team in terms of the revenue that they bring in. As the Deloitte report says, they are first ranked in the Money League. Some of the top teams that are in the Premier League are also ranked in the top ten in the Money League which shows where a lot of the revenue of European football is concentrated. With that said, due to some of the poor recent performances by Manchester United, especially in the Champions League, will Manchester's rank in the Money League fall/change? Will Man U lose some of its fans? The fact that the Premier League has maintained such dominance over revenue streams is impressive and it does not look like it will let up any time soon.

    It's impressive that out of the famous six in the Premier League - Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham - that two of them actually haven't won the trophy. Especially Liverpool, where they have always been so close and with such amount of great and iconic players, with the likes of Steven Gerrard, Luis Suarez, Fernando Torres, Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler, Xabi Alonso, Jamie Carragher etc.

    It really is crazy how they haven't won it yet, and the worst thing is that even though that right now they have a great side, it seems very difficult that they will still win it whilst the team coached by Pep Guardiola still plays with such ease and with such domination against the other Premier League teams, we will see in the future what happens, but I must say that this isn't helping Liverpool gain a better prestige with this League trophy drought .

    I found the history of the Premier League very curious because I didn't know it. The curious thing about the article, in my opinion, was that the Premier League has only been won by six teams in its history, and that Liverpool is not one of them.
    It's also important to say that Manchester United are the team that have won the most, but right now they're in a pretty bad position to continue making history.

    I'm not a football fan and that's why I don't know a lot of information related to this world. But I liked to know more about soccer and especially about the history of the premier league that from what I've read is one of the most competitive leagues in the world and in which great teams are introduced.

Historical events at the World Cup: 1994 Salenko  The 2018 World Cup took place in Russia as many people know. Although Russia is the ninth most populated country in the world with a rich football tradition but they have never really impressed on an international platform specialy on big tournements, atleast not since they first competed as Russia but not as the Soviet Union in 1994. Russia had a good team at the end of the last decade, wich made it to the semi finals of the European Championship in 2008. But there performance in the World cup has been far from good. The Russians still have one very good memory and a player who is known amongst legends. His name is Oleg Salenko who shared the golden shoe with Hristo Stoichkov at the 1994 world cup in the USA. Salenko scored six goals on the tournament and five of them in one match against Cameroon. Link: Salenko scores 5 goals in 1 game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYtuo1bMrvw Salenko's record of scoring ...

Sports and their Influence on Different Countries: The NFL

Sports and their Influence on Different Countries Jon Eichenbaum, Guojon Bjarkason, Julius Halldorsson, Suk Jae Yoon The NFL and its Influence on the United States Overview: Like soccer(to avoid further confusion in this post I will be using the word soccer instead of football moving forward) is a religion for most countries around the world, the United States has a similar religion. It is that of football. It is not uncommon to hear the quote "the NFL owns a day of the week", and this is not untrue. On any given Sunday in the United States you would be hard pressed to find a store, restaurant, or household that was not playing at least one of the football games that is on. In the United States football has a very significant socioeconomic influence and impact and that is why I have chosen to discuss this topic. Brief History: American Football's origins can be traced back to the late 1850's and early 1860's. It was originally a game that was int...
