In the years to come, we might remember James Maddison as being one half of a whole, with the other half being Jack Grealish. Is it any wonder their names are often uttered in the same breath? These are two young Englishmen with mercurial talent, more than capable of dictating the result of a Premier League match with a little sprinkle of the magic they both clearly possess. How they got to this point, though, sets them apart. Grealish has looked head and shoulders above all his Aston Villa...

The first big chance of the came fell to Marcus Rashford, whose close-range volley needed a good save from Hugo Lloris.

They will make the trip with a few notable absentees, however. Midfielder Jorginho is suspended, Fikayo Tomori is out with a muscle...

d Up All good things must come to an end, or so the old saying goes. And after enjoying a successful period of being Italy's best challenger to the mighty Juventus, it appears that Napoli are heading for a summer of major change - with many of their stars likely to depart when the transfer window opens up. It's been a strange season for Gli Azzurri, who parted ways with Carlo Ancelotti back in December and have had a disappointing league season by their standards. And despite their recent Coppa...

vals Chelsea are finally back in business this weekend, when they continue their push for a top four Premier League finish against Aston Villa.

Unquestionably, Werner and Ziyech will bring top level...

tion Norwich City's Premier League status slipped even further away on Friday evening as Southampton cruised to a comfortable 3-0 victory at Carrow Road. The first half was a real stop-start affair. Norwich enjoyed plenty of possession early on, but it was Southampton who created the best chances.

Ings remained the danger man in the second half and needed just four minutes to open the...

It was always going to be a difficult task for Manchester United to replace departing goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel in 1999, but when they finally found their replacement, he was well worth the wait. When the Great Dane left United for pastures new after completing that iconic treble in 1999, Sir Alex Ferguson really struggled to find the man to take over in the sticks as number one. French World Cup winner Fabien Barthez never quite settled, a young Tim Howard seemed too green for the role, and...

Him David Luiz's future at Arsenal has been heavily speculated on over the past few weeks, with talk of a Benfica return mooted, but the situation has taken another turn over some astronomical demands.

There were plenty of doubts about the post-Cristiano Ronaldo Real Madrid. After the Portuguese icon's move to Juventus in 2018 Real were, simply put, not very good. The Champions League elimination at the hands of Ajax last season was embarrassing, and ending the La Liga campaign 19 points behind Barcelona was inexcusable. There were some real holes in this team which needed filling. However, amid all the despair and uncertainty, one man stood up and commanded the role of Real's talisman -...

There is a certain stigma attached to footballers plying their trade north of the border. Immediately there is an assumption that no matter how well they're performing, how many clean sheets they've kept or regardless of how many goals they've notched, we have to be reminded 'that it's just the Scottish Premiership'. All the players performing well in Scotland come with an unjust caveat. They're good over there, but probably won't be here. While unjust, it's not necessarily untrue. There is no...
