True: Kai Havertz can imagine to play for @ChelseaFC. True: there are already talks. But: @ChelseaFC...

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...

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...

'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.
