As the 2025-26 Premier League season draws to a close, it's time to look back on what has been a campaign full of twists and turns. Arsenal eventually saw off the challenge of Manchester City to secure the title, but European places and the final berth in the relegation zone are still to be decided into the final day.
A fan has his say! One sharp football mind delivers a masterclass in selection: A balanced, ruthless lineup built for 2026 dominance. You may not agree with every name, but you can’t ignore the logic.
Manchester City have issued a strong statement condemning the horrific racist abuse aimed at Antoine Semenyo and Marc Guehi following their dramatic 3-3 draw against Everton on Monday. While authorities arrested a 71-year-old man at the stadium for targeting Semenyo, Guehi was subjected to vile online abuse after a costly error in the thrilling Premier League title clash.
Jeremy Doku's sublime last-gasp equaliser salvaged a point for Manchester City in a dramatic 3-3 draw with Everton on Monday night, but a second-half capitulation means Pep Guardiola's side have still handed Arsenal a huge advantage in the Premier League title race. City had led 1-0 at half-time, before imploding after the break and finding themselves two goals down with nine minutes to play.
Manchester City’s Premier League title ambitions suffered a major blow at the Hill Dickinson Stadium as a chaotic 3-3 draw left them trailing leaders Arsenal. In a match filled with extraordinary swings, a calamitous error from Marc Guehi gifted Everton a route back into a game that appeared to be under Pep Guardiola's control.
Manchester City's trip to Chelsea on Sunday afternoon came into a more intense spotlight than anticipated after Saturday's set of Premier League results. Table-topping Arsenal surprisingly lost at home to Bournemouth to open the door to Pep Guardiola's side in the title race, while fifth-placed Liverpool avoided another slip-up against Fulham to put pressure on the Blues, who are chasing Champions League qualification.
The 12 games of the Thomas Tuchel era have yielded mixed results and performances from England. They remain one of the best sides in international football, even if they haven't played particularly well for extended stretches since the Sir Gareth Southgate era. That said, they are among the favourites to win the 2026 World Cup for several reasons.
England concluded their March international break on a disappointing note as they fell to a 1-0 defeat against Japan at Wembley, with Marc Guehi making a worrying admission about the pressure of playing for the Three Lions after the final whistle. Despite dominating possession, the hosts were undone by a first-half strike from Kaoru Mitoma.
Manchester City's preparations for the Carabao Cup final have been rocked by a major injury blow to defensive linchpin Ruben Dias. The Portugal international is set to miss the Wembley showdown against Arsenal, leaving Pep Guardiola with a significant selection headache in the heart of his backline hours before the match.
Manchester City will be without key January signing Marc Guehi for their Carabao Cup final showdown against Arsenal at Wembley on Sunday. Despite other winter arrivals being eligible, the England international has been sidelined by a new rule. Pep Guardiola has been left exasperated after the former Crystal Palace defender was officially ruled out.
Pep Guardiola has claimed that he is not a "big, big fan" of the January transfer window, but Manchester City's recent winter business suggests otherwise. City have signed six players in the last two January windows, spending a total of £264 million ($353m) in the process. But whereas last year's purchases smacked of desperation, the recent acquisitions of Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo are looking like masterstrokes.
Former England star Stuart Pearce has named his "first name on the teamsheet" for this summer's World Cup, and has snubbed both Declan Rice and Harry Kane. The Arsenal and Bayern Munich stars are almost certain to be heavily involved in the Three Lions' bid to end 60 years of hurt, but Pearce has instead picked a Manchester City star as the most important in the squad.
Manchester City defender Marc Guehi admits he was left baffled by the hostile reception he received from Liverpool fans during Sunday’s dramatic win at Anfield. The England star played a key role in ending City’s 23-year wait for a win in front of the Kop but was jeered throughout, a reaction he claims to not understand despite rejecting a move to Merseyside in favour of the champions last summer.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot was left raging at a “clear” red card for Manchester City defender Marc Guehi after seeing the Reds suffer a dramatic defeat to Pep Guardiola’s side at Anfield. Dominik Szoboszlai was dismissed during a chaotic end to that contest, but Slot is of the opinion that City should have been reduced to 10 men when Mohamed Salah was denied a “100 out of 100 scoring ball”.
