As we head towards the last third of the English soccer season, one can see some signs of the extreme pressure that most teams are under, especially in the Premier League.

AS I strongly pointed out before the holidays, this year’s Premiership League is the most unpredictable in years, with some six or seven teams fighting tooth and nail, not alone for the overall title, but also for those treasured six places that would take them into the lucrative world of European Competition.
The top two teams at the moment, incidentally, both from Manchester, are only stuttering along at the head of affairs, and with a less than confident look about them. It will surely take many more weeks yet before they, or any of the other pretenders to the title, can say that they have even one hand on the coveted trophy, but the situation should make for some thrilling matches while it is being formulated, all of which makes things different from recent seasons.
