Premier League news

The esteemed Golden Ball has been elusive to so many great footballers down the years, but who deserved it the most?

"Off the pitch I'm a calm guy that just wants to have fun and enjoy my life," Erling Haaland told Time Magazine in July. "On the pitch I want to attack like a Viking." The Manchester City striker's love for the Scandinavian seafaring conquerors is well known. He dressed up as a Viking at a Halloween party just a few months after joining City. And while speaking to the prestigious American current affairs magazine, he zeroed in on his fascination with them.

Ruben Amorim put up a passionate defence of Casemiro as he insisted that the Brazilian showed he "cares" with his reckless red card against Chelsea. The Brazilian midfielder had already found the net to double United’s lead, only to undo his own good work with a reckless challenge just before half-time. Already carrying a yellow, he lunged into another rash foul, leaving the referee with no choice but to send him packing.

In the aftermath of Chelsea's disappointing 2-1 defeat to Manchester United at the Old Trafford on Saturday, goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has issued a heartfelt apology to his team-mates and the Blues' fans. The Spaniard was sent off in the fifth minute of the game after a rash challenge on Bryan Mbeumo just outside the penalty area, which cost the visitors dearly.

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes was ecstatic after the Red Devils defeated Chelsea 2-1 at Old Trafford on Saturday. It was a special night for Fernandes, as he reached two huge personal milestones. In a match marred by rain and red cards, Fernandes explained that United deserved the victory, as they "haven't been getting the points" they wanted.

Chelsea were handed their first loss of the Premier League this season, as the Club World Cup holders slumped to a dismal 2-1 defeat at the hands of Manchester United at Old Trafford on Saturday. After the game, Chelsea centre-back Trevoh Chalobah was extremely critical of his team's performance, claiming that it was "the worst we've played all season."

Ange Postecoglou was satisfied with Nottingham Forest's progress since Arsenal defeat and Swansea collapse despite a 1-1 draw with fellow strugglers Burnley. The contest had all the hallmarks of a relegation six-pointer, with both sides desperate for points, but Forest were left licking their wounds after surrendering a lead.

Manchester United and Chelsea played out one of the wildest and most exhilarating halves of football in Premier League history at the Old Trafford on Saturday, with both teams having a man sent off in the first 45 minutes. In the process, the English rivals became responsible for setting an unbelievably bizarre Premier League record.

Reports from English media have already started suggesting that Graham Potter faces an uncertain future at the London Stadium. Indeed, West Ham United have reportedly begun the process of identifying potential replacements, and one of the names on the club's radar is former boss Slaven Bilic, who managed the club between June 2015 and November 2017.

Robert Sanchez made unwanted history with a disastrous early red card against Manchester United at Old Trafford on Saturday evening. The Blues’ goalkeeper endured a shaky start, fumbling simple touches, but matters escalated catastrophically when Bryan Mbeumo surged through on goal.

David Moyes cut a furious figure after Everton’s 2-1 defeat at Anfield, branding referee Darren England’s handling of the Merseyside clash “very strange.” Liverpool’s Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike had fired the champions into control, but Idrissa Gueye’s strike gave the Toffees hope. The visitors piled on late pressure, yet controversy dominated the aftermath as Moyes and his players left the red half of the city empty-handed once again.

Manchester United finally beat a top-level opponent under Ruben Amorim at Old Trafford as they secured a 2-1 win over Chelsea, courtesy of goals from Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro. And yet the Portuguese coach should still face hard questions after his side made life hard for themselves despite taking a 2-0 lead against 10 men, following Robert Sanchez's early red card.

Chelsea couldn't recover from their goalkeeper's costly early red card as they suffered their first Premier League defeat of the season.

West Ham United fans gathered in large numbers outside the London Stadium ahead of Saturday's Premier League encounter against Crystal Palace to demand the departure of the board.

Chelsea have been rocked by Cole Palmer's injury as the England star had to be subbed against Manchester United within 20 minutes after appearing to aggravate his groin problem. The forward was replaced by Andrey Santos as Enzo Maresca also hooked Pedro Neto and Estevao Willian in a brave tactical tweak.

Chelsea fans have urged the club to sign a new goalkeeper after Robert Sanchez's early red card against Manchester United. The Spaniard brought down the through-on-goal Bryan Mbeumo and was dismissed in the fifth minute at a sodden Old Trafford. That prompted Blues fans to tear into the ex-Brighton stopper, saying he is a "walking, talking liability" for Enzo Maresca's side.
