A joint statement released by the Merseyside Police, Liverpool Football Club, Liverpool City Council and the Spirit of Shankly supporters group has urged fans to stay at home during the Premier League trophy presentation on Wednesday night. However, players' families have been approved by the Premier League to attend the historic event. The Reds were mathematically confirmed as 2019/20 Premier League champions last month, having dominated the division since its start in August. Jurgen Klopp's...

sens With a deal for Bayer Leverkusen's Kai Havertz edging closer to completion, Chelsea manager Frank Lampard is now ready to turn his attention to his defence, with bids for West Ham United's Declan Rice and Atalanta's Robin Gosens being considered. Chelsea's tally of 49 goals conceded is the worst out of any side in the top half of the Premier League and significantly poorer than their top-four rivals, and there is an acceptance that major changes are needed to ensure the Blues can compete...

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has confessed that he is happy with the way negotiations with striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang over a new contract are going. The Gabon international has just one year remaining on his current deal, and just a few months ago, it seemed like a near certainty that he would reject an extension. There were rumours he could force an exit to a side in the Champions League, with Barcelona and Inter linked. Aubameyang has entered the last 12 months of his contract...

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has admitted that he does not respect Arsenal for how they conduct themselves away from the football pitch. After City's two-year Champions League ban was overturned, Guardiola urged rival clubs to 'stop whispering' after it emerged that several of their top-flight rivals had written to the Court of Arbitration for Sport to try and ensure City stayed banned if their appeal could not be heard in time for next season. Guardiola demanded apologies for the way...

A trip to relegation-threatened Aston Villa is up next for Mikel Arteta and Arsenal, with the Gunners still harbouring ambitions of finishing in a Europa League spot. The Spanish manager has seemingly steadied the ship in north London since his arrival in December following Unai Emery's sacking. After a win over champions Liverpool, Arteta's most impressive result to date came as he outmanoeuvred his former tutor at the weekend, guiding Arsenal to another FA Cup final. Villa will be a tough...

There are certain things in football that seem to be inevitable. Y’know, like Wilfried Zaha flirting with the idea of leaving Crystal Palace or Graeme Souness not liking Paul Pogba’s new haircut. One thing in football that has become a bit of an inevitability in recent years is that Ravel Morrison – no matter how undeserving – will find himself a club where he’s finally going to show the world how good a footballer he can be, only to leave a few months later having done absolutely nothing....

Eze West Ham United and Crystal Palace are the leading contenders in the race to sign QPR star Eberechi Eze, with the young midfielder one of the hottest stars of the Championship ahead of the summer transfer window. Eze has been QPR's star performer this season, recording 13 league goals and eight assists, despite his club's struggles throughout the year. Interest in the 22-year-old is high and a number of Premier League sides are eager to land his signature. Tottenham and Crystal Palace are...

It's the summer of 2017, and Alexis Sánchez becomes the hottest available player on the transfer market when he announces that he wants to leave Arsenal. Six months later, he has his pick of elite clubs chasing his signature, with both Manchester sides in hot pursuit of the Chilean. Having flirted with the idea of reuniting with former manager Pep Guardiola, he ultimately opts for the Red Devils (and a basic wage of close to £400k a week) with the deal seeing Henrikh Mkhitaryan heading in the...

On 26 June 2019, David Silva announced he'd be leaving Manchester City at the end of the current season, bringing an end to a decade spent at the Etihad. Silva arrived at the Etihad back in 2010 - joining a very different team to the one he will leave - and has enjoyed ten years of sheer excellence during his time in Manchester, winning four Premier Leagues among other trophies. The attacking midfielder has been a hugely influential figure in City's greatest-ever football team and his exit...

"I am a central midfielder, my favourite player is Frank Lampard, and so I am very happy to be a Chelsea player," remarked Mario Pasalic as he penned a long term deal with Chelsea back in 2014. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Pasalic has never played with or under Lampard since that day. In fact he can't even say he set a competitive foot on the turf at Stamford Bridge. A familiar tale perhaps. Kevin de Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku will tell you that success at Chelsea i, historically, a lottery, often...

Wolves kept their hopes of European football alive with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace at Molineux in the Premier League on Monday evening. In an assured performance, Wolves settled proceedings with two moments of sheer attacking brilliance either side of half time. Daniel Podence applied the finishing touches to a slick move five minutes before the break, heading Matt Doherty's cushioned cross into an empty net, after the fullback was picked out by a sumptuous Joao Moutinho pass. That pass...

France Football have announced that there will be no Ballon d'Or award ceremony in 2020, owing to the exceptional circumstances and 'lack of sufficient fair conditions.' The award ceremony had been due to take place as normal in December, where the best players in the men's and women's game over the previous 12 months would be presented with the prestigious Ballon d'Or and Ballon d'Or Féminin awards.

Juventus edged closer to their ninth (NINTH) successive Serie A title with a 2-0 victory over Lazio at the Allianz Stadium on Monday evening. Two record-setting Cristiano Ronaldo goals in the space of three second-half minutes proved decisive, leaving the Old Lady requiring just five points from their final four games to be crowned champions of Italy once more. Cristiano Ronaldo has become the first player to score 50+ goals in the Premier League, La Liga and Serie A! ?...

Remember when it seemed like Cristiano Ronaldo was slowing down? Nope. Not happening. The 35-year-old scored a double on Monday night as Juventus' 2-1 win over Lazio inched them closer to sealing a ninth straight Scudetto, putting the Old Lady eight points clear with four games to go. Ronaldo opening wide to consume more records... The Old Lady's old man was at the centre of attention once again, bagging his 29th and 30th goals of the Serie A season and drawing level with Ciro Immobile in the...

It wasn't long ago that it seems as though Rúben Semedo had the world at his feet. The Portuguese centre-back had broken through as Sporting CP and earned a high-profile move to Villarreal. The world was his oyster. That was in 2017, but just three years later, he can no longer find a major team to take him on and he has just been hit with a five-year suspended prison sentence for attempted murder. What? Semedo in action for Olympiacos To get to grips with the whole story, you have to look...

Manchester United have been busy in this summer's WSL transfer window, as they attempt to bridge the gap between themselves and the top three ahead of their second season in the top flight. Casey Stoney's side finished as the 'best of the rest' during their maiden season in the WSL, but were 13 points behind third-placed Arsenal. The signs that Stoney is building a side to challenge at the summit of the WSL have been clearer than ever this summer, with a number of players who helped United to...

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has an unenviable goalkeeping conundrum on his plate that desperately needs solving ahead of next season. He has two potentially top class goalkeepers at his disposal. One is enduring a worrying dip in form that has stretched back, on and off, for now more than two years. The other is an up and coming talent who may not be quite ready for what United would expect of him. Does Solskjaer stick with David de Gea? Or does he make a change and put...

The Premier League has been home to some real giants of the game. Be it all 2.03m of Costel Pantilimon scraping the top of the crossbar, Nikola Zigic, who scored just two headed goals during his Premier League career despite crashing in at 2.02m, or Peter 'good feet for a big man' Crouch; the English top flight has been blessed with a selection of gangly frames down the years. Pantilimon, Zigic, and Crouch have all moved on to pastures new - the Cypriot First Division, the Championship and...

thic Manchester United full-back Brandon Williams personifies the importance of hard work when it comes to making the breakthrough to first-team football, with the 19-year-old having made over 30 appearances in his debut season at first-team level. Williams, who first travelled with the senior squad to Paris last season for that Champions League clash, was only 18 when the season began and had only just been permanently promoted to the club’s Under-23 team. But an opportunity came his way in an...
