Referee problem GFX

Football needs to solve its refereeing problem - fast

One regular weekend of refereeing, that's all we ask for. Will never happen. At least not in the current climate - because if the fourth round of the FA Cup taught us anything, it's that the absence of VAR definitely doesn't mean an absence of controversy. The first half of the Aston Villa-Newcastle game alone made a compelling case for the continued use of technology for offside decisions and penalty claims.

La Penna Inter Juventus

La Penna faces ban after Inter-Juve chaos

The fallout from Inter's chaotic win against Juventus has taken a sinister turn. Referee Federico La Penna has been forced to involve the police after receiving sickening death threats targeting his wife and young daughters following the controversial dismissal of Pierre Kalulu.

Igor Tudor Tottenham GFX

Can 'substitute teacher' Tudor save Spurs from relegation?

Igor Tudor to Tottenham was the managerial move that nobody saw coming. After Thomas Frank's inevitable dismissal last week, all of the UK's leading bookmakers promptly published lists of the frontrunners in the race to succeed the Dane as head coach. Tudor's name didn't feature on any of them. He wasn't even considered a rank outsider for the role - he was a non-runner.

Bastoni Kalulu La Penna Inter Juventus

Inter star labelled 'cheat' by refs chief after 'wrong' red card

Inter star Alessandro Bastoni has been branded a “cheat” after contributing significantly to Juventus rival Pierre Kalulu being shown a “clearly wrong” red card during a dramatic Serie A encounter at San Siro. The Bianconeri finished that game with 10 men and on the wrong end of a 3-2 scoreline, with the head of officiating in Italy offering an apology to the Turin-based giants.

McKennie tells Juve to double his salary as contract talks stall

Weston McKennie has transformed from a transfer-listed outcast into an indispensable pillar of the Juventus midfield, but his long-term future in Turin now hangs by a thread. While the 27-year-old Texan has voiced his desire to remain with the Bianconeri, negotiations have hit a significant roadblock. His representatives are playing hardball, demanding a salary that reflects his status as one of Serie A's most consistent performers, leading to a high-stakes standoff at the Allianz Stadium.

Alessandro Bastoni

Juve blasted for 'playing the victim' over controversial red card vs Inter

The fallout from Saturday's explosive Derby d'Italia continues to dominate the headlines as former Inter president Massimo Moratti has hit back at Juventus for their reaction to a controversial refereeing decision. During Inter’s 3-2 victory, Juventus defender Pierre Kalulu was shown a second yellow card after Alessandro Bastoni went down under light contact, a moment that sparked fury from the Turin giants. Addressing the uproar, Moratti suggested that the Bianconeri's sense of injustice was perhaps a little misplaced given the broader context of Italian football history.

Aston Villa v Nottingham Forest - Premier League

Luiz completes Aston Villa return after Forest nightmare

Aston Villa have announced the return of Douglas Luiz on loan from Juventus for the rest of the season. The Brazil international swapped Villa for Juve in the summer of 2024 for £42 million ($58m), but the 27-year-old has endured a difficult 18 months since then. After failing to fire at the Italian side, his loan stint at Nottingham Forest hasn't worked either. Now, he is back with Unai Emery's side.

"Antonio Conte, jump with us!" the home fans began chanting in the dying minutes of their team's 3-0 win over the reigning Serie A champions. Unsurprisingly, Conte was in no mood to join in, as his injury-ravaged side suffered a devastating defeat that saw the Partenopei fall to fourth in the table.
