By this point in the Premier League season, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard will have a good idea of which players he wants to keep and which he wants gone. The Blues have already been active in the transfer market, luring Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner in already and closing in on Kai Havertz, so it's clear Lampard has been working with his scouts to figure out how to make his team better. Any Chelsea fan will be able to tell you that there are a few players in this squad who probably should be...

ason Following his arrival from Birmingham in the summer of 2019, expectations were high for Che Adams heading into his first season as a Southampton player. It was easy to see why. The forward had been Birmingham's bright spark up front with 22 league goals as the Blues finished 17th. Adams had demonstrated a goalscoring ability Southampton sorely lacked throughout the 2018/19 season, with their lead scorer being loanee Danny Ings with seven goals in all competitions. The Saints needed help...

With Real Madrid crowned La Liga champions on the penultimate matchday and the top-four race swiftly emerging into a no contest, the main source of drama during the final round of fixtures came at the foot of the table. Although the fates of Espanyol and Mallorca were already sealed, Leganes still had a fighting chance of survival and despite picking up a point against Los Blancos on matchday 38, Celta Vigo's stalemate at Los Periquitos resigned Javier Aguirre's savvy Pepineros to the...

Pep Guardiola has revealed that Manchester City won't use the overturning of their Champions League ban as motivation when they face Real Madrid in the second leg of their Champions League last 16 tie. City were handed a two-year ban from the competition in February for breaching Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations, but after a lengthy appeal, the decision was overturned by the Court of Arbitration for Sport in July - with an initial €30m fine cut by a third as well. City's successful appeal...

The Premier League is coming to an end on Sunday, and while for many it will be a sad to see their club not play competitively for a while (again) it will also see a number of players bid farewell to the league entirely. A number of stars have their contracts coming to an end this summer so, for many, Sunday will be their last chance for a fitting send off. It's sure to be an emotional affair, with tears shed and goodbyes had. But who is set for pastures new? Quite a few, in fact. Jan...

There is no denying there is a romantic attachment between Wilfried Zaha and Crystal Palace. He spent his youth days with the side, returned to south London after his previous 'big' move failed, and has amassed over 350 appearances for the Eagles. By all accounts, it's his club. But all good things must come to an end, even if this particular end feels like it's been dragging on for an eternity.

ning Conor McGregor has shown off his footballing skills in a video directed at Sergio Ramos as the two go back and forth on Instagram. While holidaying back in his native Ireland, the Notorious One can be seen draped in designer clobber lashing a left footed strike into the bottom left corner, to which the Madrid star responded with a seal of approval. Turns out McGregor can break a net just as well as he can a jaw. View this post on Instagram What do you think @sergioramos? We Are The...

Jordan Henderson's rise to the peak of the football mountain was completed this year as he added the Premier League title to the Champions League trophy he lifted with Liverpool last season. The 2019/20 campaign was full of nothing but positivity for Henderson, but it hasn't always been that way for the lad from Sunderland, whose career at the top level was nearly over before it had even begun. Let's take a look at where Henderson's career has taken him thus far. 1998 - Joining Sunderland's...

Toni Kroos has weighed in on Gareth Bale's situation at Real Madrid, claiming the entire saga is 'unsatisfying' for everyone at the club. It's been another season in a peripheral role for the Welshman. The stand off between the forward and Real has been prevalent once again this term with Bale used fleetingly by Zinedine Zidane, all the while warming the bench and earning considerable wages to boot. View this post on Instagram Let’s go @djohnsonpga ???? A post shared by Gareth Bale...

Paris Saint-Germain are yet to know the full extent of Kylian Mbappe's injury sustained during the club's 1-0 win over Saint-Étienne, but confirmed it was a 'serious' sprain and not a fracture. Mbappe was forced off in the first half of the Coupe de France final on Friday, as Loic Perrin's challenge saw the forward's ankle buckle under his trailing leg in a nasty looking injury. ???? @ASSEofficiel https://t.co/871MosrTFp — Kylian Mbappé (@KMbappe) July 25, 2020 That tackle saw a full 22-man...

ract Tottenham defender Eric Dier says more needs to be done to protect footballers when it comes to online and in-stadium abuse. Dier was recently handed a four-match ban by the FA after he marched into the stands at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to confront a fan following Spurs' FA Cup defeat to Norwich in March. The 26-year-old, who extended his contract in N17 until 2024 on Wednesday, was attempting to protect his younger brother but despite the circumstances, Dier was deemed to have...

More It wasn't always certain that we'd reach this point, but we're finally here. It's the final day of the Premier League season. We already know Liverpool are champions and Norwich have finished bottom, but apart from that, there's still so much to play for. Take a gander at the current standings, because things could look so different by the time Sunday comes to an end. Let's take a look at what's still to play for.

With the curtain almost drawn on one of the most frantic and unpredictable Championship campaigns to date, the fate of four teams still hangs in the balance. While the regular season may have come to an end, there is still the drama and excitement of the playoffs to come, with Brentford, Fulham, Cardiff and Swansea securing places in the top six.

Leicester City midfielder James Maddison is understood to have put pen to paper on a new contract at the King Power Stadium which will has seen him become one of the Foxes' top earners. The 23-year-old was in outstanding form during the first half of the Premier League season, racking up six goals and three assists before New Year's Day, earning himself a call up to Gareth Southgate's England squad and prompting links to Manchester United. Maddison was high on Man Utd's wish list To try and...

After a blockbuster season spanning 11 months, Chelsea finally conclude their Premier League campaign on Sunday. A final day clash at Stamford Bridge is usually cause for celebration, but this year, the Blues have it all to play for when Wolves rock up to west London. Chelsea need a result to qualify for the Champions League, currently sitting fourth after being thrashed by champions Liverpool. A point would have sufficed at Anfield, but Frank Lampard’s side now need to pick up that final...

ouls It may feel like a bit of a hazy dream when you cast your minds back a couple of decades, but at that time, Celtic and Rangers were European heavyweights. The Scottish rivals were packed with impressive players from back to front, with some magic and stardust at the top of the pitch. Their talent showed on the European stage too, as they represented Scotland in the UEFA Cup final in two successive seasons. In 2003, Celtic arrived within one game of unrivalled glory, only to be stopped by...

ver Although Inter may currently be sitting only four points behind Juventus in the Serie A table, and a title challenge may appear to be alive, things are far from rosey at San Siro. Antonio Conte is up to his usual tricks of complaining, whinging, whining, lamenting - and just about every verb which could describe a bitter man, struggling to deal with his own deficiencies. Recent results have all-but killed Inter's realistic Scudetto hopes, while talismanic striker Lautaro Martinez has taken...

Two years is a very long time in football. In the summer of 2018, Samuel Umtiti was renowned as one of the best centre-backs playing the game. The French defender had just led his national team to World Cup glory, scoring the only goal in the semi-final victory over Belgium, and providing a solid base to one of the most defensively disciplined winners of the trophy in recent history. Umtiti was an important figure in France's World Cup triumph Since that moment, little has gone right for the...

Inter coach Antonio Conte has categorically put an end to any ties linking Barcelona star Lionel Messi with a move to San Siro this summer, describing the rumours as 'absolutely fake'. The Barça legend has grown frustrated at the current situation at Camp Nou this season, after failing to defend the league title, and slipping close to a Champions League exit at the hands of Napoli. Messi has become disillusioned at Barcelona These murmurs of discontent blossomed into talk of a dramatic exit...

Juventus fluffed the chance to secure the title last time out against Udinese, but they'll know they will win their ninth successive Scudetto if they beat Sampdoria on Sunday. Atalanta were unable to cut the deficit to three points when they drew 1-1 with Milan on Friday, and while the title race is still open mathematically, Juventus should secure the trophy on Sunday night. Here is the team that could clinch the title against Sampdoria Goalkeeper & Defenders De Ligt celebrating his goal...
