The Juventus Lineup That Should Start Against Genoa

The Serie A title race is closer than it has been for many, many years, with Lazio making a real push at dethroning Juventus and ending their near decade of dominance. The Old Lady are currently four points clear of Lazio, but the gap could be closed to just one point by the time Maurizo Sarri's men face relegation-threatened Genoa, with the Eagles taking on Torino in an earlier kickoff. With Juventus facing a real challenge for the first time in a number of years, Sarri's side have to be at...

Man City Consider Rivalling Man Utd for Jack Grealish as Leroy Sane Replacement

Manchester City wil rival Manchester United for Jack Grealish this summer, if Bayern Munich are prepared to match their asking price for wantaway winger Leroy Sane.

Cristiano Ronaldo hits hat-trick & Bruno Fernandes scores again in Portugal win

Watch out Phil Foden, there's a new wonderkid on the block. The Citizens have been doing some work behind the scenes during a crazy period for football, and it looks as if they're close to snaring one of Spanish football's most exciting youth stars of recent years. 18-year-old Pablo Moreno, a product of Barcelona's famous La Masia academy who currently plays his football at Juventus, is reportedly set to swap Turin for sunny Manchester to join Pep Guardiola, with City's Felix Correia moving in...

Bert Van Marwijk announces UAE squad for India friendly

Leicester City had been one of the Premier League's most enjoyable sides to watch prior to football's suspension. Brendan Rodgers had his side playing some fast, exciting, attacking (and, of course, honest) football, and it was bringing results and entertainment in equal measure. After a post-Christmas dip in form, the Foxes' final game before football's three-month break saw them seemingly back to their best, as Jamie Vardy grabbed a brace in an emphatic 4-0 victory over Aston Villa. Vardy...

Qatar Independence Cup 1994 and India's past results against Oman

Leeds United have been dreaming of promotion back to the Premier League ever since the club was relegated in 2004. Despite a dismal display in their first game back against Cardiff after the three-month break, Marcelo Bielsa's men produced a scintillating performance in a 3-0 win over promotion-chasing Fulham to provide the best indication yet that the Whites are finally set for a return to the top flight. The Leeds team celebrate their win against Fulham at Elland Road With just seven games...

Every Player Who Has Left Arsenal to Win Trophies and Actually Won Trophies

Players leave clubs in search of silverware all the time. It's totally normal. However, for Arsenal, it's turned into a bit of a curse. The Gunners have been on a steady decline for a good (or bad) few years now, and they have seen plenty of their top stars jump ship to go and win trophies elsewhere, all while Arsenal have been restricted to the odd FA Cup. Arsenal fans don't really like talking about it, but there's no denying that there have been a whole lot of former players who have gone...

The Barcelona Lineup That Should Start Against Atlético Madrid

With Saturday's 2-2 draw against Celta Vigo in Galicia, Barcelona handed rivals Real Madrid the advantage in the race for the La Liga title. Quique Setien's side took the lead twice, though agonisingly settled for a draw in the dying embers of the match. With two stalemates in three games, an apparent lack of killer instinct has handed the advantage to Los Blancos, who now hold a two-point advantage over their famed rivals. Barça face their toughest test since the restart as they host an...

An XI of the Best Players Sold by José Mourinho

José Mourinho's famously ruthless approach to management has earned him no shortage of trophies over his career, guiding him to league titles with four different clubs, and European titles with three. The downside, however, is that it has also seen him drop a few clangers on the transfer front. Has he dropped so many clangers that you can pick an entire Mourinho clanger starting XI? Well... 1. GK - Petr Cech Cech is the most high-profile goalkeeper let go by Mourinho OK so actually they're not...

Man Utd's Strongest XI Can Beat Anyone But the Need for Rotation Still Makes the Rest of the Season a Challenge

Manchester United are in a good place right now, arguably a better place than they have been in at any point since Sir Alex Ferguson retired. Saturday evening marked a 14th game without defeat as the team booked a place in the FA Cup semi-finals for only the third time since 2011. But this remains a work very much in progress and the positive steps made in recent months are still relatively early in the process. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must choose his starting XI carefully United deserve credit...

Atlético Madrid Might Have a Striker Problem, But it's Nothing Compared to Barcelona's

In football there are two main reasons why transfer policy goes badly. The first involves knowing what you want, but not having the means to get it, and often settling for less. This is a pretty simple dilemma that all but about seven of Europe's top teams will be familiar with - a case in point would be Spurs wanting Sergio Agüero in 2012, but through lack of means ending up with a 32-year-old Louis Saha. Ok, that was a rather extreme example. Most clubs have certain constraints to work...

News With Barcelona on the verge of disintegration both on and off the field, there perhaps couldn't be a worse time to take on a rejuvenated Atlético Madrid in La Liga. In Catalonia, things have not been ideal since the restart. The most recent setback? An 88th minute equaliser from Celta Vigo's Iago Aspas, which left Quique Setien's men two points adrift Real Madrid, after they narrowly overcame Espanyol. We were fated to pretend. To pretend. — Gerard Piqué (@3gerardpique) June 27, 2020...

Bayern wonderkid Musiala 'sees his future' with England amid international tussle with Germany

Manchester are reported to be looking to Burnley to replace the departing Leroy Sané, with Dwight McNeil shortlisted as a potential summer signing. Pep Guardiola confirmed last week that Sané has rejected the offer of a new contract at the Etihad, and though he refused to concede that he will leave this summer, the chances of City allowing him to run down his contract and depart for free in 12 months appear slim. The Germany international set the club back close to £50m in 2016, and though he...
