Firstly it has been confirmed by Sir Alex Ferguson that Michael Owen will be out for 4-5 weeks with a hamstring injury and then it was confirmed that although Rooney was thought to be sidelined for 3 weeks, it may now be a more lengthy period of time, with Fergie claiming it’s all about rest now.

Luckily for the reds, Carlos Tevez is back in Argentina recovering from an injury and is doubtful for both this weeks Premier League match with Wolves and next weekends game with West Brom . I think that both Tevez and Rooney will manage to shake of their injuries in time for the Manchester derby in November. What a mouth watering prospect that game will be if both teams are full strength.

The current “golden generation” of footballers performed pretty poorly against what is really only an average Montenegro side last night. I know there’s an argument that Montenegro set out a dogged defensive stall that was difficult to break down, but the fact that the current England squad is very much the same as that of the recent failed World Cup squad worries me.

I’m not expecting wholesale changes straight away – you can’t ditch 20 odd players and start from scratch but I have to say that the future of English football looks very worrying. Besides the emerging talent of Adam Johnson of Manchester City, I think we’ve got very little in terms of new top class talent to offer. England should qualify for the finals, but again, it’ll be Spain, Holland and Germany who succeed before the “golden generation” retires for good.

The Premier League 2009-2010 season now seems like it will be a two horse race between champions United and ex champions Chelsea. Both teams have brushed Arsenal aside with ease over the last week, and surely have the strength and depth in their squads to maintain title bids, whereas the floundering Arsenal, without their main striker Robin Van Persie, look decidedly weak.

Watching the game on Sky Sports yesterday, there was a comment that Arsenal WERE dangerous last season with their formidable partnership between Van Persie and Emmanuel Adebayor, now of Manchester City. They brushed aside AC Milan in the Champions League, and were a team that were nearly perfect, bar maybe 1 or 2 signings. Bring on the summer transfer window at the start of the season and what did they do? That’s right, they sold Adebayor and didn’t recruit anyone as a worthy replacement.

Arsene Wenger is a great manager, but I still feel that he has a stubborn streak that is leaving his side a little short when it comes to challenging for the Premier League crown. Hopefully my words won’t come back an haunt me.

So who will win the league this year? My bet in on the winner of the Manchester United vs Chelsea game at Old Trafford on 3rd April this year.

Terry, the serial womaniser has recently been the subject of a massive media story surrounding his affair with England colleague and former Chelsea team mate Wayne Bridge’s ex girlfriend Vanessa Perroncel. Perroncel is also mother of Bridge’s son, now 3 years old. Bridge now plays for Manchester City.

Chelsea and England captain Terry is alleged to have had an affair with Perroncel. The allegations are yet to be confirmed but Perroncel has held talks with publicist Max Clifford over dinner regarding the affair and her story is likely to be released soon.

Terry’s wife Toni Terry is currently in Dubai with their twins following the allegations. Capello is is keen to get crisis talks out of the way so he can concentrate on England’s build up to the World Cup in South Africa this summer.

He has recently appeared on African TV wearing an Arsenal top  ( link: http://j.mp/4P0M8X) talking of his ordeal.

Fifa have declared that it is up to the Togo national team what the players can be released to go back to their domestic clubs after their team bus was ambushed killing three people. Rumours are that Adebayor could be back at Eastland’s by the weekend and ready to play. I hope he remembers to take his arsenal shirt off before he gets there though!
