Arsenal ended their run of three Premier League games without a win with a dominant 4-0 win at Leeds United to move seven points clear of Manchester City at the top of the Premier League table, silencing those critics who have suggested their title hopes were about to collapse. The visitors suffered a major blow in the warm-up when they lost star man Bukayo Saka to injury, with Noni Madueke being drafted in off the bench to replace him, but it was the former Chelsea man who proved to be the difference in the first half as Mikel Arteta's superb squad again began to flex its muscle.

Chelsea have suffered a blow in the build up to their Premier League clash against West Ham United with Estevao Willian having been left out of Saturday’s fixture at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea's star player Cole Palmer has been caught up in a row with his neighbours over potential plans to build a gym in his home.

Chelsea winger Tyrique George could be on the move before the January window closes as Everton have reportedly made an offer to sign the youngster on an initial loan with an option to buy.

Manchester City and Pep Guardiola are set to lose a loyal servant with Stefan Ortega reportedly close to completing a move to fellow Premier League side Nottingham Forest.

Bukayo Saka appears to have picked up an injury in Arsenal's pre-match warm-up before facing Leeds United. The winger joined his team-mates on the Elland Road pitch prior to the 3pm kick-off but went down the tunnel early. Gunners winger Noni Madueke went on to replace him in the line-up in a huge blow for Mikel Arteta's Premier League title-chasing side.

Enzo Fernandez is reportedly among a group of Chelsea players who feel their recent performances should prompt fresh talks about a new contract.

Sam Smith's second-half winner ensured Wrexham rose back into the Championship play-off places with a hard-fought 1-0 win over struggling Sheffield Wednesday.

Rashford wasn't wanted by former United head coach Ruben Amorim but that is seemingly not the case with Carrick.

Chelsea head coach Liam Rosenior has revealed that even his own children have laughed at memes comparing him to The Office’s David Brent and Will from The Inbetweeners. The Blues manager has made an impressive start to life at Stamford Bridge following his appointment earlier this month, but that hasn’t stopped him from becoming the butt of online jokes.

Chelsea are reportedly keen on recalling another loanee as Liam Rosenior seeks to bolster his centre-back options. The Blues have been keen on signing Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet but that deal is proving difficult. Rather than splashing the cash yet again, it seems the Stamford Bridge outfit are keen on making better use of players on their own books for the second half of the season.

Michael Carrick admits that Bruno Fernandes' Manchester United future is on his agenda amid speculation the Portuguese may leave the club this summer. The 31-year-old recently spoke about how unsettled he was at the Red Devils, and the club's hierarchy didn't make him feel very welcome in 2025.

Roberto De Zerbi has clarified his Marseille future after reports surfaced he had resigned following the French side's Champions League exit.

But if two English sides had got their way, the 28-year-old may still be a Premier League player.

The last time Bruno Fernandes faced Fulham the whole football world was laughing at him. The Manchester United captain skied his penalty in the 1-1 draw at Craven Cottage in August and partly blamed the miss on referee Chris Kavanagh bumping into him.

Arne Slot complained about the "noise" around Anfield ahead of Wednesday night's Champions League clash with Qarabag - and one could understand why.
