A Little Brist' Off - Premier League Coupon
We're not sure if Stefan Maierhofer understands the concept of going on loan but he doesn't seem to realise that he's going to have to return to Wolves once his 28 day loan spell with Bristol City ends. "I don't have a clue why I've not been in the team. Kevin Doyle cost £6.5 million, so he has to play, yet he has just got six goals in 25 games which is not great. The manager told me I lacked match practice after my operation then Keogh came back from a three-month lay-off, trained for two days and then played against Bolton and Manchester United. I feel like they are taking the p*$$ out of me," complained the Austrian striker this week. Wolves have a midlands derby against Villa next, will Doyle give you a return on your moany with the last goal? Sat 12.45pm SS1

Eye On The Prize! Arsenal v West Ham Betting
In recent matches, Nicklas Bendtner has transformed himself from Darius Vassell impersonator to a Danish Pele. Ok, let's take a deep breath for a minute. With "You can't hit a barn door, you can't hit a barn doo-or, but against Porto, you managed to sco-oore" ringing in his ears, he banged in the winner in their 2 – 1 victory over Hull too. And that was after getting poked in the eye by George Boateng. "My eye's OK now," the Arsenal frontman said on Thursday, bless. "I told him ‘you can’t poke someone in the eye when the ref isn't looking. That's not fair'. I told him that and he got a bit upset." Its lucky Bendtner didn't say anything about his sister or mother - more's the pity. We have our eye on Nicklas scoring the last goal against West Ham. Sat 5.30pm ESPN

He Beatt' Me! Stoke v Spurs
If you'd wondered why James Beattie hasn't added to the five England caps he won in 2003, you probably haven't, we may find some clues in his current troubles with Tony Pulis. The Stoke boss is alleged to have head-butted Beattie after the defeat to Arsenal in December. The pair got embroiled in a heated argument because Beattie was more concerned with going boozing than with trying to win football matches. Now, in a World Cup year, he's wasting time on this instead of trying to get in the Stoke team and impressing Capello. "He's got to get on and play for us and that's what he's paid for. I expect him to play for us. I hope he's got a long way to go in his career," said chairman Peter Coates. A long way away from Stoke most likely. Do Stoke have the Beattie-ing of Spurs? Sat 3pm Set Irl

My Sev-ic Duty - La Liga Betting
Knee-jerk reactions in the aftermath of Sevilla making a surprise exit from the Champions League at the hands of CSKA Moscow suggest manager, Manolo Jimenez could find himself out of a job in the not so distant future. So he made sure to strike all the right chords in the press this week. "I'm hurt, angry, dissatisfied, not just as the coach of Sevilla, but as a professional," he said, ticking the 'show disappointment' box. "I believe we must stand up and guide this ship with courage and recover from this frustration," he added, completing the well rehearsed script with a rather predictable note of defiance. The Nervionenses board might think they're better off without Jim if they lose out to Espanyol. Sat. 9pm SS4 – Real Madrid v Sporting (7pm SS4)
