  1. 'It affects my players!' - Rosenior fumes over Leeds handball call

    Liam Rosenior has slammed the officiating decision that allowed Leeds to equalise at Stamford Bridge, claiming a clear handball caused his Chelsea players to "switch off" during a chaotic 2-2 draw on Tuesday. The Blues boss saw his side surrender a two-goal lead in a frantic five-minute spell, missing the chance to leapfrog Manchester United into the top four.

  2. Sesko's 'unbelievable' goal vs West Ham no surprise for Carrick

    Michael Carrick has hailed Benjamin Sesko’s stoppage-time heroics against West Ham, insisting the striker’s stunning equaliser was "not surprising" given his quality. The Slovenian forward came off the bench to rescue a 1-1 draw at the London Stadium, preserving Carrick’s unbeaten start to life in the dugout even as their four-game winning streak came to an end.

  3. Greenwood loses his mentor as De Zerbi leaves Marseille

    Marseille have announced that manager Roberto De Zerbi has left the club by mutual consent in the wake of Sunday's 5-0 thrashing by champions Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1.

  4. Bernardo back to his best as summer exit from City nears

    There is no shortage of ways to describe Bernardo Silva. A daring dribbler; a sleek passer; a relentless presser; the engine of Manchester City’s field, as well as its brain. But Erling Haaland managed to sum up the City captain's attitude in brilliantly simple terms after master-minding their stunning comeback win against Liverpool: 'Let’s have it!'

  5. January transfers have made Man Utd a UWCL threat

    Manchester United simply had to act in the January transfer window. The Red Devils had enjoyed a wonderful start to the 2025-26 season, most notably qualifying for the Women's Champions League proper for the first time and then going one further by putting themselves in this month's knockout rounds. But if they wanted to be competitive against Europe's best, and at the sharp end of domestic competitions, they needed more in the squad - and that's the approach United took.

  6. Slot on the brink: Top-five hopes hanging by a thread

    On Sunday at Anfield, Liverpool lost to Manchester City for the second time this season. Arne Slot insisted after the 2-1 defeat that "the improvement" in his side since their demoralising 3-0 drubbing at the Etihad in November was "visible for everyone to see" and there were certainly some positive signs in the second half - but they still suffered a now almost-customary collapse in the closing stages.

  7. 📽️ | Spurs fans chant Pochettino's name as Frank remains defiant

    Thomas Frank insists he is '1,000 per cent' the right man for the Tottenham job despite a toxic atmosphere in north London. Spurs fans openly called for the return of Mauricio Pochettino as their side slumped to a miserable 2-1 defeat against Newcastle on Tuesday, leaving the crisis-hit club hovering dangerously above the relegation zone ahead of the derby match against local rivals Arsenal.

  8. The United Strand reacts to Man Utd's draw with West Ham

    Manchester United fan Frank Ilett, also known as The United Strand, has spoken out after seeing his dreams of a long-awaited haircut ended by Tuesday's 1-1 draw with West Ham United. Ilett vowed in October 2024 not to cut his hair until Manchester United won five games in a row and was on the brink of a trip to the barbers until the struggling Hammers ended the Red Devils' four-match winning streak.

  1. Anderson or Wharton to replace Casemiro at Man Utd?

    Elliot Anderson and Adam Wharton are the two players Manchester United should be targeting to replace Casemiro in the summer, according to a Champions League-winning former Red Devils' star. Casemiro has overcome fierce criticism to play a crucial role in United's unbeaten start under Michael Carrick, although his resurgent displays have not been enough to earn him a new contract.

  2. Why Liverpool are stalling in push for €100m-rated Diomande

    Liverpool are holding off from making a transfer move for RB Leipzig star Yan Diomande due to contractual complications. The Reds are thought to be keen on the 19-year-old Ivory Coast international, who has scored seven Bundesliga goals so far this season, but the Merseysiders will wait to make their play due to some uncertainty over his personal situation. RB Leipzig reportedly value Diomande at €100 million (£87.15m/$118m), with the German side not looking to sell him unless a truly lucrative offer arrives.

  3. Former club drop Vinicius transfer bombshell amid Saudi links

    The president of Flamengo has revealed his club's stance on re-signing Real Madrid star Vinicius Junior as speculation continues to surround the future of the Brazil international. The forward's contract at the Santiago Bernabeu expires next year and he looked unlikely to pen an extension during Xabi Alonso's brief spell in charge of Los Blancos. Now, Luiz Eduardo Baptista has admitted his side can't commit to a deal with Vinicius any time soon.

  4. Lionel Messi & sons get special gift from Neymar

    Neymar and Santos have sent signed No.10 shirts to Lionel Messi and his sons, Thiago, Mateo and Ciro, highlighting the two stars' favoured shirt number. The duo starred together at Barcelona and later linked up again at French giants Paris Saint-Germain and they have remained good friends ever since. A social post from Santos praised both Messi and Neymar alongside all-time Brazil great Pele.

  5. Chelsea blow it! Palmer magic undone by defensive disasterclass

    Chelsea failed to win a Premier League match under Liam Rosenior for the first time as they were held to a 2-2 draw by Leeds United on Tuesday. The Blues were comfortably the better team for much of the contest and even led by two goals in the second half, but a series of defensive errors saw them throw away a victory which would have massively boosted their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League.

  6. Man Utd make shock Maguire contract decision ahead of expiry

    Harry Maguire is "increasingly likely" to sign a new contract with Manchester United after resurrecting his career under interim manager Michael Carrick. The England international's contract is due to expire in the summer but he has impressed in recent weeks, forming an effective centre-back partnership with Lisandro Martinez in the Red Devils defence. The 32-year-old has been given a route back into the United team due the recent injury suffered by Matthijs de Ligt.

  7. Jean-Philippe Mateta

    Palace make Mateta surgery decision after Milan transfer collapse

    Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta will not undergo surgery on a niggling knee problem after all, despite the injury scuppering his January transfer to AC Milan. The Frenchman seemed on course to join the Italian giants in a £30 million ($41m) deadline day move, but the deal was called off after the issue with his knee was flagged in his medical examinations.

  8. Bayern 'convinced' over Kane renewal despite cryptic update

    Bayern Munich are said to be "convinced" England captain Harry Kane will sign a new contract with them despite rumours of a potential transfer to the Premier League or Saudi Pro League. The striker left Tottenham in 2023 to join the Bavarian giants and has been a big hit in Germany, scoring 123 goals for Bayern in less than three seasons. However, his current contract is due to expire in 2027 and is said to contain a clause which could see Kane leave this summer for just £57 million ($78m).

  9. Salah in talks with Saudi giants over summer transfer

    Mohamed Salah is reportedly in talks with Saudi Pro League giants Al-Ittihad over a potential move in the summer transfer window. The Egyptian has been a long-term target for Saudi Arabian clubs since the Public Investment Fund (PIF) first started pouring cash into the country's top league and Salah, who has endured a tetchy and difficult season at Liverpool, is wanted as their next marquee signing this year.

  10. Aluko accuses Woods of 'gaslighting' as public row escalates

    The public war of words between Eni Aluko and Laura Woods has continued, with the former England international hitting back at the ITV and TNT Sports presenter. Aluko has recently said her path towards punditry roles in the women's game has been blocked by England and Arsenal legend Ian Wright, leading to Woods quipping that "caps don't win automatic work". Now, Aluko has claimed Woods' comments have left her feeling "gaslit".
