English Premier League: Difference between revisions

** Thierry Henry also returned briefly to Arsenal to maintain match fitness ahead of the new MLS season, while coming on as a substitute in all of his appearances he still scored three times, showing he had lost none of the class he had during his first spell. Sol Campbell and Jens Lehmann had also returned briefly in prior seasons to some acclaim.

* [[Licensed Game]]: The popularity of football in Europe means there are several video games, most notably ''[[Football Manager]]'' and the FIFA games. Of course not all games have permission to use likenesses or logos, but you can still play the leagues.

* [[Miracle Rally]]: Teams have been known to overturn two-goal deficits to grab draws or even victories. Manchester United overturned a three-goal deficit to win 5-3 against Tottenham in 2001, and recently Newcastle pulled back from ''four goals down''-with twenty minutes to go-to draw 4-4 against Arsenal. West Ham came back from 3 down agaisnt West Bromwich Albion in the 2010/11 season.

** Arsenal beating Chelsea 5-3 at Stamford Bridge counts. Losing at half time 2-1 they scored twice early on in the second half to make it 3-2. Only for Chelsea to equalize thanks to a stunning Mata goal with 10 minutes to go. Only for van Persie to pop up to score twice inside 5 minutes to result in a second miracle rally! Considering most people had written Arsenal off due to a weakened team and after that 8-2 defeat to Man Utd, it was a sign that they had managed to develop a side capable of pushing for a top spot in the table. Highlights included that Mata goal, Terry falling over and gifting van Persie his second and Walcott falling over surrounded by 4 Chelsea players, then getting up and running through them to score.
