Dwight Gayle on Arsenal rejection, idolising CR7 & more

  1. Valverde & the 20 players in L'Equipe's exclusive 10/10 club

    Within a Real Madrid squad that is packed full of Galacticos, Fede Valverde is rarely singled out for what he offers to Los Blancos despite his obvious importance to the team. On Wednesday, though, he was able to hog the limelight after his stunning first-half hat-trick saw off Manchester City in the Champions League. His performance also earned him the rarest of plaudits: A 10/10 rating from L'Equipe.

  2. EXCLUSIVE: Lionesses star Park on Man Utd move & flying form

    There was less than an hour remaining in the Women’s Super League summer transfer window when the most stunning business of all was completed. Jess Park and Grace Clinton had been stalwarts at Manchester City and Manchester United, respectively, during the previous season. And yet, at the eleventh hour, both were sent to opposite sides of the city, to represent what had been their biggest and bitterest rival.

  3. Pep gets his tactics wrong AGAIN as O'Reilly run ragged

    Manchester City have a mountain to climb in the Champions League after slumping to a 3-0 defeat to Real Madrid in the first leg of their last 16 tie at the Bernabeu. Pep Guardiola raised eyebrows with his team selection in the Spanish capital and saw his team simply swept away by Los Blancos, with Fede Valverde stealing the show for the hosts with a brilliant first-half hat-trick.

  4. How USWNT star Coffey can become 'unpredictable' at City

    Manchester City are on the brink of a first Women's Super League title since 2016, and a big reason for their incredible performances this season has been the midfield duo of Yui Hasegawa and Laura Blindkilde Brown. And yet, in January, the Cityzens got even stronger in that position when they added another truly world-class midfielder in United States star Sam Coffey, making a move that can have so many short- and long-term benefits.

  5. Jorgensen clangers cost Chelsea as PSG expose Rosenior

    Errors from goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen helped condemn Chelsea to a 5-2 loss in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie against Paris Saint-Germain. Goals from Malo Gusto and Enzo Fernandez looked to have earned the Blues a deserved draw in the French capital, only for Jorgensen to gift the ball to the defending champions on the edge of his own penalty area, which Vitinha took advantage of before Khvicha Kvaratskhelia added two further late goals.

  1. Messi kept quiet as Inter Miami settle for drab goalless draw

    Inter Miami were forced to settle for a frustrating scoreless draw with Nashville SC in the first leg of their CONCACAF Champions Cup last 16 tie. Neither side created much, and Lionel Messi was kept surprisingly quiet in a poor fixture between two sides that looked more eager not to lose. The two teams combined for just five shots on target over the course of 90 minutes.

    A nonplussed Pep Guardiola dismissed a question from a reporter that related to Mikel Arteta chasing his first Premier League title as a manager, insisting that he had not attended his pre-match press conference to offer advice to the Arsenal boss.

  2. 'F*ck me backwards!' - Keown slammed for 'biased' Arsenal commentary

    Arsenal legend Martin Keown has found himself in the firing line after his commentary during the Gunners' 1-1 Champions League draw with Bayer Leverkusen was labelled "biased". The controversy stems from an 89th-minute penalty awarded to the Premier League leaders after Noni Madueke went down following minimal contact from Malik Tillman, a decision that allowed Kai Havertz to level the scores.

Transfer news and done deals 🤝

  1. Sherwood backs Van de Ven for Liverpool move

    Liverpool have been tipped to launch a sensational raid on Tottenham for Micky van de Ven amid the north London club's battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League. Spurs currently sit in 16th place, just a single point above the drop zone, following a disastrous campaign that saw Thomas Frank sacked after only eight months. Things have failed to improve under interim boss Igor Tudor, who has overseen four consecutive defeats, including a 5-2 Champions League thrashing at the hands of Atletico Madrid.

  2. Joao Pedro tipped for shock Arsenal transfer move

    Chelsea striker Joao Pedro is currently enjoying the most prolific spell of his career, and his meteoric rise has caught the eye of former team-mates. Keinan Davis, who played alongside the Brazilian at Watford, believes the 24-year-old is destined for the very top of the game. Davis has even suggested that a cross-London switch to Premier League rivals Arsenal could be on the cards.

Queens of football 👑

  1. Who are the Lionesses' most capped players?

    England women's national team has enjoyed a lot of success in recent years, winning the European Championships in 2022 and 2025 while also reaching the 2023 Women's World Cup final, and those involved in those successes in Sarina Wiegman's side are now starting to creep into the record books when it comes to caps, as well as trophies.

Superstars of the future

  1. Spurs' future captain who could help their current crisis

    For a club the size of Tottenham, their academy hasn't produced too many successful graduates since the turn of the century. Of course, Harry Kane is the standout name and would be the shining example of any youth system, but beyond him, the pickings are slim. The full list of active alumni from the Spurs academy who went on to play for the first team is as follows: Kane, Harry Winks, Oliver Skipp, Kyle Walker-Peters, Andros Townsend, Troy Parrott, Nabil Bentaleb, Massimo Luongo, Maksim Paskotsi, Milos Veljkovic, Anthony Georgiou and Cameron Carter-Vickers.

  2. Ex-Madrid forward's son earning interest from Europe's elite

    Robinho Jr only turned 18 in December, but he has already broken into the senior team at Santos, where he is now rubbing shoulders with Brazil's all-time record goal-scorer, Neymar. The teenager is already attracting transfer interest from a host of top European clubs, partly because of his ability, but also due to the footballing legacy of his father.

  3. Why Italy are desperate to cap Atalanta's new wonderkid

    Honest Ahanor is just 17 years old - and yet on Sunday he started his fifth successive game for Atalanta, against Como. Unfortunately, Ahanor's afternoon came to an abrupt end - and quite literally by his own hand. Just eight minutes into the game at Sinigaglia, the defender was involved in an innocuous, off-the-ball clash with Maxi Perrone, who shamelessly collapsed to the ground as if Ahanor had struck him in the face.
