It’s a shirt of two halves, Saint… We’ve had a few cheeky peeks at what Manchester United’s home kit will look like next season, but new images have emerged of what look like photographs of actual manufactured shirts. Adidas and United were no doubt hoping they could keep the new design under wraps but nearly every rumour […]

It’s time to warm those balls. Liverpool, Manchester United and Spurs have all secured their places in the next round of the Europa League and this is when it starts to get really interesting. The last 16 of the tournament generally sees the wheat separated from the chaff as suddenly the competition goes from something […]

Jose Mourinho’s name continues to be linked with the manager’s job at Manchester United. While some of the club’s supporters might want him to take over from Louis van Gaal, the news that scarves with the former Chelsea manager’s name were recently on sale outside Old Trafford were widely condemned by many of their supporters. But, ahead […]

After their disappointing exit from the Champions League, Manchester United might not have expected their Europa League campaign to have started so badly. Danish champions FC Midtjylland head to Old Trafford defending a 2-1 lead and will be boosted by the news that the United squad that faced them a week ago has picked up […]

It’s safe to say the Germans have been looking forward to their meetings with Liverpool.

Jurgen Klopp has named Daniel Sturridge in Liverpool’s starting lineup for their Europa League clash with Augsburg. Having drawn 0-0 in Germany, Liverpool will be hoping to make the most of home advantage at Anfield in order to progress to the next stage of the competition. Lucas Leiva at centre-half… that should be good craic. […]

We’ve yet to see if Alexandre Pato can rekindle some of his early AC Milan form in a Chelsea shirt. The Brazilian made the switch to Stamford Bridge in January, and will hope to use his opportunity at Chelsea to kick-start his career. After a bright start to life in Serie A earned Pato a […]

Manchester City knew they were in for a tough task in Kiev, but made surprisingly light work of their opponents. Manuel Pellegrini made 10 changes from the youthful team which lost to Chelsea in the FA Cup, with only Fernando keeping his place. And it worked, with a 3-1 win giving the visitors a great […]

Cameron Borthwick-Jackson has been a rare bright point in an otherwise dull season for Manchester United. The young left-back has performed impressively when asked to stand in for a number of Manchester United injuries. Being thrust into the spotlight of first team football doesn’t appear to have gone to Borthwick-Jackson’s head, either. After we revealed […]

Hakan Şükür might well be Turkey’s leading goalscorer by a country mile, but his decision to criticise the the country’s president could see him serving jail time. According to reports but the provate Dogan news agency, Şükür has been charged with posting tweets from his account @HakanSukur which contain “insulting content against Mr President Recep Tayyip […]

Lionel Messi’s decision to pass a penalty to Luis Suarez has had more than enough airtime recently. While the Argentine has generated plenty of headlines for his selfless spot kick, many of us were unaware that one of his Barca teammates attempted something similar a few years ago… ‘attempted’ being the operative word. Back in […]

More Ronaldo or Nani? Or Bebé? Reports in Portugal are suggesting that Manchester United and Benfica have come to an agreement over the signature of Renato Sanches. The 18-year-old midfielder is one of the most sought-after young talents in Europe and it is said that both clubs have reached a non-formal “gentleman’s agreement” over the […]

“Bring on Barcelona! Neymar! Messi! Suarez! ‘Oo are ya?!” Well at least he knows who they are now. This rather animated Arsenal fan is none other than ‘Heavy D’ from Storage Hunters UK. Mr D certainly wasn’t backwards in coming forwards when talking up Arsenal’s chances and mocking their Catalan foes ahead of Tuesday’s Champions […]

Forget all they hype surrounding the Champions League clash at The Emirates, the opening goal in the Championship clash between Middlesbrough and Cardiff at the Riverside was a bit special. With Middlesbrough clearing a cross from their area, the ball fell to former Manchester United defender, Fabio. Given that the Brazilian hadn’t scored in 68 […]

Once again, Barcelona look to have landed a knockout blow on Arsenal’s Champions League hopes. Despite matching the European champions for the first half, Lionel Messi (predictably) opened the scoring for Barca after the break. Arsene Wenger’s response to going a goal behind was to make a couple of changes. After sending Danny Welbeck on to […]

The Champions League knockout stages are back in full swing and it’s all enough to make Manchester United’s supporters nostalgic. For the second year running United won’t be appearing in the competition’s last 16, and have to overturn a 2-1 deficit against Danish minnows FC Midtjylland if they are to continue in the Europa League.

Finally, it seems things are looking up for Gary Neville.

After his Valencia side followed up their victory over Espanyol with a […]

You’ve got to admire their confidence. Barcelona may be world-renowned as one of the finest sporting entities on the planet, but these Arsenal fans believe they have the perfect man to stop one of their prime orchestrators. According to a number of bolshy Gooners, the great Andres Iniesta will struggle to live with Francis Coquelin during their Champions […]

We all know that Hector Bellerin is pretty speedy, but to suggest he’s quicker than Usain Bolt might seem a bit far-fetched. However, a report by the BBC claimed that the Arsenal man is quicker than the Olympic champion – over a distance of 40m. The Spaniard covered the distance in 4.41 seconds, bettering the time it […]

Louis van Gaal’s days at Old Trafford are numbered.

A few different names have been put forward as Van […]

Conspiracy theorists everywhere. We’ve all heard the suggestions that some Chelsea players simply didn’t contribute their maximum efforts under Jose Mourinho in order to get him the sack. In fact a few of the squad were referred to as ‘rats’ for a fair while. But now there’s a new theory gathering momentum – that born winner […]
