Chelsea have been handed a massive boost by captain Reece James signing a new deal until 2032. Manager Liam Rosenior hailed his captain following the announcement, labelling the academy graduate as "the best in the world" in his position.
Former West Ham striker Marlon Harewood has told GOAL that Tottenham’s struggles will provide added motivation for the Hammers in the ongoing Premier League relegation battle. Two London-based heavyweights are locked in a scrap for top-flight survival, with fierce local rivalry adding another intriguing dimension to what has already become an enthralling tussle.
Arsenal have approached Declan Rice regarding a new long-term contract, as the Premier League leaders seek to secure the futures of their core group of players. Since his massive £105 million ($132m) move from West Ham in 2023, the 27-year-old has transformed into one of the most complete midfielders in world football, becoming the heartbeat of Mikel Arteta’s side.
Chelsea’s Pedro Neto has been hit with a one-game ban and a £70,000 fine following his red card against Arsenal. The FA confirmed the extra penalty after the winger "acted in an improper manner by failing to leave the pitch promptly and/or using abusive words towards the match official/s". He will now miss Saturday’s crucial clash against Newcastle.
Tottenham Hotspur head coach Igor Tudor has urged his players to set aside their 'victim' mentality and 'fight' in their battle against Premier League relegation.

Everton boss David Moyes has defended Mikel Arteta against criticism of Arsenal's tactics. Despite leading the Premier League, a number of rivals and pundits have hit out at the Gunners' reliance on set-pieces.

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.
