An American Take on England: Matchweek 4
What a week. To someone new to the Premier League, the big six clubs would have been Chelsea, West Ham, Tottenham, Aston Villa, Newcastle, and Everton. Manchester United were slaughtered. Liverpool got trounced. Let me rephrase that: Liverpool got beaten so badly that...
An American Take on England: Matchweek 3
Week three is finished (I know, it was finished three days ago, I’m slacking), and as I’m writing this, I can’t help but think that Leicester are looking like the Leicester of last season pre-covid. They’re clinical, have a great offence, and a stingy defense....

An American Take on England: It’s Week 1!
Aaaaand we’re back! The shortest off-season of all professional sports just got even shorter, thanks to our good friend Covid-19. Teams barely had a chance to sign new players and recover from injuries, although the England men’s team found a way to score more off the...
Match Report: Denmark 0-0 England
After Mason Greenwood and Phil Foden burst England’s COVID-19 bubble, a philosophy-affirming victory would have been welcome for Gareth Southgate tonight. Instead, his side delivered a goalless draw and one of those performances which will leave him asking the most...

England’s Cosmic Waiting Game as International Football continues to gestate
It has been just shy of nine months since England last played a football match. In that time, you could – if you were feeling particularly buoyant in the wake of the national team's 4-0 victory over Kosovo on 17 November 2019 – have conceived, gestated, and delivered...
An American Take on England: We’ve Reached the End
Another season has passed, yet not a season like we’ve ever seen before. Not since World War II has a football season been suspended, and never in the history of the Premier League. The next season is scheduled to start in mid-September, which means that the shortest...
NO BALL GAMES: the story of English Football’s longest season
Bang. Darkness, then light. Nothing – then everything at once. That was how it all started, with the totality of all there ever was and all there ever will be exploding into being. The original New Normal. Suddenly, there was everything to play for and forever to...
