  1. The return of the Egyptian King! Salah shines against Brighton

    Liverpool are by no means back to their best. And nor is Mohamed Salah. But there were enough positive signs from both in Saturday night's 3-0 FA Cup fourth-round win over Brighton to suggest that this most trying of seasons might actually end on a positive note for the Reds. Arne Slot's men were actually quite flat in the first half, perhaps exhausted from the effort required to end Sunderland's unbeaten home record in the Premier League in midweek, but they still went into the interval ahead thanks to Curtis Jones' close-range finish from Milos Kerkez's cross.

    Boost for Arsenal? Guardiola offers Haaland fitness update

    Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted Erling Haaland is not fully fit after the FA Cup win over Salford, raising concerns over the striker's long-term availability. The Norwegian was withdrawn at half-time against Fulham after suffering a knock, and his fitness is now being assessed daily, offering potential encouragement to Arsenal in the Premier League title race.

  3. ‘Flat and slow and not good!’ - Brutal Guardiola tears into 'boring' Man City

    Manchester City may have secured their passage into the FA Cup fifth round, but manager Pep Guardiola was left far from impressed by what he witnessed at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. Despite a 2-0 victory over League Two outfit Salford City, the Catalan coach offered a scathing assessment of his side's display, labelling the performance "flat and slow and not good." It was a result that got the job done, but the manner of the victory left much to be desired for the reigning Premier League champions.

  4. Palmer's V-Day getaway! Chelsea star jets off to Dubai

    Cole Palmer spent Valentine's Day in Dubai with girlfriend Olivia Holder while Chelsea cruised past Hull City in the FA Cup, running out 4-0 winners. The England attacker was rested and did not travel with the squad, instead taking a short mid-season break before returning to training ahead of the Premier League run-in under new head coach Liam Rosenior.

  5. Foden's struggles continue in City's laboured win over Salford

    It's just as well Manchester City once again spent big during the January transfer window, as Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo were needed off the bench to help Pep Guardiola's men overcome Salford City in a surprisingly competitive FA Cup fourth-round clash at the Etihad on Saturday afternoon. Despite being gifted an early lead through Alfie Dorrington's own goal, City struggled horribly to break down their League Two opponents, while at the same time giving the visitors a couple of clear sights of goal.

  6. Take a bow, Kane! Bayern star hits major career milestone

    Harry Kane marked another landmark moment in his impressive career by scoring twice for Bayern Munich against Werder Bremen, bringing his total to 500 senior goals for club and country. The England captain continued what is becoming his most prolific season in Germany and is heading towards the World Cup in outstanding scoring form, a great sign for the Three Lions.

  7. De Zerbi's brutal treatment of ex-Marseille star revealed

    Roberto De Zerbi's turbulent Marseille spell included a dressing-room flashpoint involving defender Amir Murillo, who was told he had no future at the club during a heated video review that went viral online. The confrontation reflected growing internal tensions between the former Brighton boss and his players, which ultimately contributed to the Italian's acrimonious exit.

  1. Liverpool boss Slot reveals Konate contract talks update

    Liverpool manager Arne Slot has offered an update on Ibrahima Konate's future at the club as the defender heads into the final few months of his contract at Anfield. Konate has been linked with a move to Real Madrid on a free transfer at the end of the 2025-26 season, but Slot has made it clear that he wants the Frenchman to stay and sign a new contract with the Reds.

  2. Chelsea failed with shock attempt to sign Spurs star in January

    Chelsea had a quiet January transfer window but did enquire about the possibility of landing a key star from Premier League rivals Tottenham. Spurs are in the midst of another difficult campaign and have just replaced manager Thomas Frank with Igor Tudor until the end of the 2025-26 season. Tudor takes over with Tottenham currently just five points above the relegation zone.

  3. Wrexham reach FA Cup fifth round for first time in nearly 30 years

    Wrexham celebrated five years with Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac at the helm of the club by beating Ipswich Town in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Phil Parkinson's side won 1-0 on Friday night to make it into the fifth phase of the famous competition for the first time since 1997. Josh Windass was the hero for the hosts, scoring the only goal of the game against their fellow Championship promotion hopefuls.

  4. Barca stars fire back at Flick after Atletico debacle

    Barcelona's players shared their concerns with manager Hansi Flick about his tactics in the wake of their 4-0 thrashing by Atletico Madrid in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey. The result leaves the Blaugrana with a mountain to climb ahead of the second leg of the tie at Camp Nou in March, and the players have called on the manager to make changes to his system.

  5. 'Don't care' - Cunha takes aim at United Strand over haircut stunt

    Manchester United star Matheus Cunhas has taken aim at supporter Frank Ilett, also know as The United Strand, and his viral haircut challenge. Ilett has vowed not to cut his hair until the Red Devils win five games in a row and is still waiting to book in a trip to the barbers. Michael Carrick's side had won four on the bounce before heading to West Ham last time out but could not get over the line as they slumped to a 1-1 draw.

  6. Ronaldo backed to play 'on and on and on' by Portugal boss Martinez

    Portugal manager Roberto Martinez believes Cristiano Ronaldo could play "on and on and on" if he wanted to, as questions over the 41-year-old's future in the game intensify with each passing day. Ronaldo is almost certain to lead his country at the 2026 World Cup this summer in what is likely to be his international swansong, but it's still unclear when he will retire from the game entirely.

  7. 'Thought it was in!' - Chelsea star Delap explains horror miss

    Chelsea striker Liam Delap has opened up on his horror miss for the Blues against Hull City in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Friday night. The striker thought he had opened the scoring after blocking an attempted clearance from goalkeeper Dillon Phillips. Delap even started to celebrate before watching on as the ball struck the underside of the crossbar and then bounced away from goal.

  8. How Duran's career has gone from sublime to bizarre at age of 22

    Still just 22 years old, Jhon Duran has joined the sixth club of his increasingly nomadic career and his third in the space of just 12 months, making the controversial decision to head to Russia and sign for Zenit St Petersburg. It is a little over a year since the former Aston Villa hitman was being linked with European giants Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea, but after spells in Saudi Arabia and Turkey, the striker is already drifting further into obscurity.
