Former Fulham and Benfica striker Carlos Vinicius managed to turn an already simmering Brazilian derby into a full-blown riot with nothing more than a plastic water bottle.

The debate over who is the greatest player of all time usually begins and ends with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, but Fulham striker Raul Jimenez believes there is one specific department where he stands head and shoulders above the legendary duo. The Mexico international has established himself as one of the most reliable figures in world football from the penalty spot, and he isn’t afraid to let the world know about his clinical edge when the pressure is at its highest, also ranking himself above Harry Kane.

Tottenham have officially reached the end of their patience with Premier League officiating, lodging a formal written complaint to the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) regarding a series of "inconsistent" decisions. The London club, currently navigating a turbulent period under interim manager Igor Tudor, have reached out directly to PGMOL chief Howard Webb to express their growing frustration.

Nuno Espirito Santo has strictly forbidden Adama Traore from lifting weights at West Ham's Rush Green training ground, citing the winger's "incredible" natural physique.

Arsenal might be leading the way on the pitch as they chase a first Premier League title in over two decades, but off it, they have secured a much less desirable accolade. A comprehensive new study has revealed that the Gunners’ faithful have been named the most disliked fanbase in the English top flight.

The Premier League has been forced to issue an embarrassing climbdown after deleting a social media video that openly mocked Tottenham goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario. The north London club's miserable run of form hit a new low with a 2-1 defeat against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday, but the frustration of the Spurs faithful was exacerbated when the league's official account appeared to join in on the criticism. Following a significant online backlash and a formal complaint from the club, the clip was removed from public view on Monday morning.

Micky van de Ven has been accused of "shrinking" just when Tottenham Hotspur need him most, with warnings that his lack of leadership could scupper a dream move to a European heavyweight.

Tottenham boss Igor Tudor labelled Fulham star Raul Jimenez a "cheat" after seeing his side slump to their second London derby loss in the space of a week.

Tottenham Hotspur’s freefall reached a new low on Sunday afternoon as Igor Tudor’s side slumped to a 2-1 defeat against Fulham at Craven Cottage. The result extends Spurs’ miserable winless run to 10 matches in all competitions, a sequence that has seen the North London club edge closer to the relegation zone. While Richarlison managed to find the net, it was not enough to mask a performance that interim manager Igor Tudor described in scathing terms, directing his ire at both the match officials and his own squad’s application.
