opes Bayern Munich secured their place in the final of the DFB-Pokal with a 2-1 win over a battling Eintracht Frankfurt at the Allianz Arena on Wednesday night. Anyone who ludicrously thought an upset could be on the cards was quickly sinking into their sofa mere minutes into the clash, with Die Roten seeing an effort cleared off the line and Robert Lewandowski uncharacteristically missing the ball entirely when only a tap-in was needed to bag his 45th of the season. Powerful ? Passionate ❤️...

Be afraid Manchester City, be very afraid. A few days prior and the hopes of Arsenal supporters were cranked up a notch ahead of the return of the Premier League, as the Gunners cruised to a 6-0 win over Charlton in their first warm-up fixture. Granted, it was only Charlton, but that excuse can't be flipped on its head to describe their 3-2 loss to Brentford, another second tier outfit, who were fully deserving of their victory. ? We held our second behind closed doors friendly at Emirates...

But most people are not sick of laughing about it. 90??? ?????????: Arsenal, Everton, Newcastle, West Ham & Wolves among a number of clubs to be considering a contract offer for Thiago Silva. ✍️? — 90min (@90min_Football) June 9, 2020 Arsenal's defence has been, let's be honest here, crap, for quite some time, and it needs fixing.

After almost six months of crying in the shower while listening to Dido, watching rom-coms with tubs of ice cream and eating lonely microwave dinners for one, Pep Guardiola has moved on from his painful breakup with now-Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta. It seems that the Spanish coach has finally accepted that some things don't last forever, and having drunkenly tattooed 'Better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all' on his bicep (that may only be speculation), he's back on the...

Carlo Ancelotti is number 13 in 90min's Top 50 Great Managers of All Time series. 'The Diva Whisperer', football's great avuncular uncle, Carletto's legacy (beyond winning a boatload of trophies) is his man-management skills. From Milan to Madrid to Munich, it seems almost no-one has a bad word to say about Ancelotti. He is the manager the very best love to play for. His detractors might say he has been in right place at the right time (with the right squads) but Ancelotti's great trick is...

Next Pep Guardiola's forensic attention to detail is what makes him one of the world's most revered coaches. This level of thorough analysis requires a lot of work, so it's no surprise that Guardiola always assembles a talented backroom team when taking over a club. Working under the obsessive Spaniard must be tiring but it's also the best way imaginable to cut your managerial teeth. That's why so many of Pep's assistants have gone to achieve great things in the game. However, because his...

Shrewsbury have left no stone unturned in their criticism of Liverpool, slamming the club's decision to field an inexperienced, youthful side for their FA Cup clash back in February. An exhilarating fourth round tie at the New Meadow saw the Reds blow a two-goal lead against their League One opponents after a rousing comeback, granting the Shrews a memorable replay at Anfield. ? | An Open Letter to our #SalopianFamily pic.twitter.com/LsJF5im11F — Shrewsbury Town FC (@shrewsweb) June 10, 2020...
