It’s like an episode of casualty. As Louis van Gaal tries in vain to turn the tide of disenchantment at Old Trafford and save his job as the manager of Man United, he is facing something of an injury crisis. Following the headline news that Wayne Rooney would miss up to two months due to knee ligament […]

A bit too cocky? Following the final whistle at the Parc des Princes, Gary Lineker claimed a 2-1 lead at home in the first-half of a European fixture was the most precarious of leads. Indeed few can deny that Paris Saint-Germain’s narrow victory over Chelsea leaves both sides with a realistic prospect of proceeding in the competition. But […]

What exactly is he getting at? Messi’s ‘pass-penalty‘ against Celta Vigo, eventually dispatched by Luis Suarez, has generated all sorts of reactions, from admiration to condemnation. But now Cristiano Ronaldo has had his say, and it is being taken as a cryptic dig at his great rival. The Portuguese was asked about the spot-kick ahead of […]

The Champions League returns as Chelsea face Paris Saint-Germain in the French capital. Chelsea were knocked out by PSG at the same stage of last season’s competition. With it already looking unlikely that Guus Hiddink’s men will finish in the Premier League’s top four, winning the Champions League might represent their only way of returning to the […]

Having won their first Copa Libertadores title a few years back, Atlético Mineiro are a prominent name in South American football. This week, the club showed off their new home and away kits ahead of the new Brazilian season – made by Canadian company Dryworld. As is obligatory for most football teams these days, the unveiling of the new […]

It’s tough at the bottom. Just ask RKC Waalwijk. Languishing at the foot of the Dutch second division is not much fun at all. And it’s certainly not great if you’re trying to fill your stadium.

Even by his own admission, Eden Hazard’s failure to recapture the kind of form he showed last season has played a part in Chelsea’s poor league position (and the departure of Jose Mourinho). Any hopes of Guus Hiddink’s side clambering up the table to salvage a top four spot already seem to be dead, meaning the only […]

Manchester United fans didn’t see this one coming. Louis van Gaal’s side might be missing a few players with injuries, but few expected them to lose to 19th-placed Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Anthony Martial drew the visitors level after Wahbi Khazri’s early opener, but a late David De Gea own goal decided the […]

Some Manchester United supporters might have believed their team were on the cusp of turning a corner. A convincing 3-0 victory over Stoke City was followed by a decent performance at Stamford Bridge, where United came agonisingly close to taking all three points. But having lost to relegation-threatened Sunderland in Saturday’s early kick off, things […]

For fans of clubs outside the traditional top four, Manchester United’s transition since Alex Ferguson’s retirement doesn’t actually look too bad. After losing the greatest British manager of the modern age, things were always going to be a little rocky under David Moyes and Louis van Gaal. But for United fans, last season’s fourth place […]
