International fixtures to watch during the March 2021 break

Chelsea are keen to bring in some new faces to address their defensive woes, but manager Frank Lampard will only be permitted to do so if he offloads some of the current members of the squad. The Blues conceded a whopping 54 goals in the Premier League this season, more than any other side in the top half, and while some of that was down to tactical mistakes on Lampard's behalf, plenty of those goals were conceded as a result of poor decisions and mistakes from the players. Chelsea are...

Liverpool & Tottenham tracking Inter's Nicolo Barella

As the ball rolled towards Club Brugge's Emmanuel Dennis, all alone in Real Madrid's penalty area, Thibaut Courtois was furiously back-pedalling. In a desperate attempt to protect his clean sheet, Courtois tumbled to his left-hand side just as Dennis' mis-control tamely rolled the other way, opening the scoring in the Champions League group stage clash earlier this season. A night that Emmanuel Bonaventure Dennis will NEVER forget ?? His two first-half goals helped Club Brugge to a 2-2 draw...

Explosives cause delay in Argentina's Clasico

The first Saturday of the 2020/21 Scottish Premiership season was tight and cagey all round, but Sunday afternoon saw Celtic once again separate themselves from the pack. The Hoops are not messing about in their bid for a tenth successive title, and while eight teams scored seven goals between across Saturday's games, Neil Lennon's team brought five of their own to the party on the day they raised another Premiership flag. Odsonne Edouard's hat-trick and goals from Jeremie Frimpong and Patryk...

Chris Smalling Offered to Newcastle United After Roma Talks Stall

Reports in Italy suggest Inter are likely to part ways with Antonio Conte this summer, with former Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri lined up as a potential replacement. Conte's Inter finished the Serie A season with a 2-0 win over Atalanta, ending the campaign just a point behind champions Juve. The standings fail to tell the full story, however: their title chances had realistically collapsed before lockdown, and they sat seven points behind Juve a week ago, at the point Maurizio Sarri's...

Manchester United Set to Swap Alexis Sánchez and Chris Smalling for Inter's Milan Skriniar

Manchester United are set to offer both Alexis Sánchez and Chris Smalling to Serie A runners-up Inter in exchange for centre-back Milan Skriniar. The 25-year-old Slovakia international joined Inter from Sassuolo in the summer of 2017 for close to £30m. Skriniar has been a consistent starter since his San Siro arrival and his ability to play on either the left- or right-hand side of three-man defence has made him a vital part of Antonio Conte's team this season. Only three outfield players have...

Leicester City Open to Offers for Kelechi Iheanacho to Fund Odsonne Edouard Move

Leicester are willing to listen to offers for striker Kelechi Iheanacho this summer, as the Foxes look to make up money to bring Odsonne Edouard to the King Power Stadium. Iheanacho joined the Foxes back in 2017 for £25m, but has found a place in the starting lineup hard to come by under current Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers. Despite hitting the back of the net 10 times this season, the Nigerian international has just 16 starts in all competitions to his name – with Jamie Vardy still the...

Mikel Arteta Is Now More Important Than Anyone Else at Arsenal - Even Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's hilarious drop of the FA Cup trophy acted as neat metaphor. In order for Arsenal to continue succeeding and lifting silverware, they mustn't lose hold of their captain. One penalty won and brilliantly converted, followed by a superb second half goal, proved just how vital he is for the future of the club. Any notion of life without him is a terrifying prospect that the club cannot afford to entertain. He must be kept at all costs. Aubameyang wasn't quite sure what...

Roy Hodgson's side may have already lined up a potential replacement, with The Sun reporting that Palace are ready to pursue...

Barca victory cuts gap to Atletico to one point

Chelsea were undoubtedly second best in Saturday's FA Cup final defeat to Arsenal. Some questionable refereeing decisions didn't help, but the Gunners well and truly deserved to lift the trophy at the end of the day. The defeat means Frank Lampard will end his first season at Chelsea without a trophy. Well, assuming he can't mastermind the comeback of the century against Bayern Munich in the Champions League which, let's be honest, is not going to happen. The cup final failure has left many...
