Team manager Fabian Hürzeler has inflicted another damaging defeat on club world champions Chelsea FC, this time at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion, and can now dream of European competition.
Chelsea's slide towards mid-table mediocrity under Liam Rosenior continued at Brighton on Tuesday evening, with the blunt Blues suffering an embarrassing 3-0 defeat at the Amex. After four consecutive Premier League losses without scoring a single goal, the fifth-placed Londoners had arrived on the south coast hoping to revive their hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League. However, they now sit sixth after allowing Brighton to climb above them with disturbing ease.
Declan Rice is considered to be “a bit like Roy Keane of Manchester United”, but has Arsenal’s England international become the best midfielder in the world? Former Gunners star Henri Lansbury has provided an answer to that “big statement” during an exclusive interview with GOAL, with captaincy advice being offered to those at Emirates Stadium.
Tottenham thought they had bottomed out when finishing 17th in the Premier League, but now find themselves languishing in the relegation zone. What has gone wrong and in which direction should the finger of blame point? Former Spurs academy graduate and current Baller League star Paul-Jose M’Poku has used north London neighbours Arsenal as part of his explanation during an exclusive interview with GOAL.
Liverpool are expected to be active in the summer transfer window, with attacking reinforcements required at Anfield, and Michael Owen has told GOAL why “brilliant player” Anthony Gordon could be a shrewd investment. The England international, who is currently on Newcastle’s books, came through the ranks at Everton but grew up as a Reds supporter.
Paul Parker has told GOAL that “UEFA want Manchester United in the Champions League final”, but will the Red Devils hit that target across the next 10 seasons after enduring a 15-year barren run? One of the biggest clubs in world football have not graced the grandest showpiece in European competition since 2011, with a humbling fall from grace being suffered.
What's the cheapest way to watch as much Premier League football a season?
Currently, the most cost efficient package looks to be picking up a TV deal through Virgin Media or EE TV.
Existing TV or broadband customers can add TNT Sports to Virgin Media for £12 per month and Sky Sports for £31.75 per month, adding on Amazon Prime Video for the few weeks in the season when they show football which is £8.99 per month.
EE TV (formerly BT TV) also provide their Big Sport deal which includes TNT Sports and Sky Sports via NOW TV, for £45 per month, which is available for existing broadband customers, with the addition of Amazon Prime Video for the few weeks in the season when they show football which is £8.99 per month.
However, when it comes to bang for your buck, if you’re wanting to spend a little less, then the Complete Sky Sports package from an additional £22 per month on top of your current Sky TV deal is the best option, giving you over 128 games across a single season.
