Mikel Arteta says he's gunning for glory in the Carabao Cup to make up for previous failures during his time at Arsenal. The Gunners take on Chelsea on Wednesday in the first leg of their semi-final and face a Blues team under new management following the arrival of Liam Rosenior. Arsenal were knocked out at this stage of the competition last season by eventual winners Newcastle and Arteta wants his team to go one better this time around.

Manchester United are being urged to explore potential routes into the exciting new NBA Europe project that could be worth around $50 billion (£37bn). A potentially lucrative venture is being pitched by the National Basketball Association, with the plan being to create 12 franchises - and four teams that qualify without owning equity - which would be valued at up to $1 billion (£743m) each. Premier League giants United have been advised to join discussions regarding a crossover enterprise.

Carlo Ancelotti's son, Davide, reportedly put his name forward for the Strasbourg managerial role after Liam Rosenior's move to Chelsea. The former Botafogo boss is said to have been keen on the coaching position but was eventually pipped to the post by ex-Wolves manager Gary O'Neil. It seems the 36-year-old does not want to be out in the coaching wilderness for a while.

Macclesfield FC will welcome the Premier League's Brentford to their Moss Rose home in the next round of the 2025-26 FA Cup after the fourth round draw handed the non-league side another glamorous tie against top flight opposition. The Silkmen sensationally beat holders Crystal Palace in the third round to complete one of the greatest FA Cup shocks of all-time.

The transfer windows remain one of the highlights of the footballing seasons for fans and there have been plenty of big-money deals over the years.

Jorrel Hato has praised new Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior, after the Blues thumped Charlton 5-1 in the 3rd round of the FA Cup. The young Dutchman opened the scoring on the stroke of half-time as he powered home a bouncing ball on the edge of the Addicks' area with a fierce left-footed strike. Speaking after the game, the left back said he felt Rosenior's style "suits" this Chelsea squad.

Liam Rosenior's tenure as Chelsea boss got off to a brilliant start, as the Blues bested a spirited Charlton side 5-1 at They Valley. Jorrell Hato opened the scoring with a beautifully struck volley just before half time. Toisin Adarabioyo added a second, with Miles Leaburn offering a brief reply, before Marc Guiu, Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernandez rounded off the scoring for the Blues.

Chelsea's new boss Liam Rosenior has said that he wants to emulate Sir Alex Ferguson's great Manchester United treble-winning side, which was the result of developing young players, at Stamford Bridge. One of the reasons for Rosenior's appointment has been his success with youngsters at BlueCo-owned Strasbourg and he will be tasked with replicating that in west London.

Former Chelsea youth star Lamisha Musonda has shared that he might only have days to live. The 33-year-old Belgian, who joined the club from Anderlecht alongside brothers Tika and Charly, revealed on social media that he has been living with a health condition and that he is fighting to survive. He expressed his gratitude for the many people he has played alongside.

New Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior has insisted he will be in charge at the Blues and is content with the board’s involvement in the club. The former Strasbourg coach has worked with the BlueCo hierarchy before in France and his appointment has been viewed cynically as a coach happy to bow down to the whims and wishes of those in the boardroom above him.

Wesley Fofana has been slammed as a "habitual offender" after being fined for his tenth driving offence. The Blues defender has been injury-prone throughout his time in west London, but has managed to rack up an almost unbelievable haul of issues on the road, both during his time in west London and beforehand.

Liam Rosenior insists he is 'not arrogant' despite channelling his inner Jose Mourinho during his first press conference as Chelsea head coach. Rosenior was named Blues boss earlier this week, taking over from Enzo Maresca, who left his role at Stamford Bridge on New Year's Day. The 41-year-old takes over a Chelsea side that have won only one of their last nine league matches.

Liam Rosenior was always guaranteed a baptism of fire when he was named as Enzo Maresca's replacement at Chelsea given his complete lack of experience in the Premier League, let alone at one of the division's elite clubs. But even so, the task at hand is unenviable has he arrives to a brimming in-tray in his Cobham office. The Blues' season feels as though it is on a knife edge as the new head coach takes the reins.
