But hard as it to think now, Brazil hasn’t always been synonymous with those yellow jerseys, with the colours known and adored the...

Erik ten Hag press conference: Supporting Ronaldo; Martial talks; Injury updates

If Arsenal were to never produce another away kit for the rest of time, there wouldn't be the faintest resemblance of disgruntlement. North London would be silent, the capital itself would've been tranquil and all the football attire fanatics could sit calmly in their La-Z-Boy chairs gazing upon their collections with the upmost fulfilment. After all, the 1991 bruised banana kit was, and still is, the crème de la crème. Striking in all the right ways, its offensive in-your-face boldness...

'I would like to play in a team that fights more' - Almiron hints at Newcastle exit
