  1. Self-pitying Arsenal must change mentality to win title

    "There’s still questions about the mental strength of the team. I think there was a lack of aggression. Too many players failed to deliver," Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira said on Sky Sports after watching his former side suffer a 3-2 defeat at home to Manchester United last weekend. "It was a must-win game. They needed to send a message to the rest of the teams in the league."

  2. Pig-headed Keane is just jealous of Carrick

    Michael Carrick used to look up to Roy Keane. When he was a youth teamer at West Ham, Carrick would analyse the way the Manchester United captain walked out of the dressing room at Upton Park. The first time he faced Keane on the pitch, Carrick watched him ‘clatter’ his team-mate Joe Cole. And yet he was never intimidated by him. And maybe that is why Keane is waging a war of words with United's interim boss.

  3. Ballon d'Or Power Rankings: Kane & Mbappe lead as Raphinha finds form

    With the Lionel Messi-Cristiano Ronaldo duopoly now disappearing into the rearview mirror, the battle for the Ballon d'Or hasn't felt so open for the best part of 20 years, with countless players beginning the campaign believing they have a chance of claiming the most prestigious individual prize football has to offer. Ousmane Dembele emerged from a career plagued with inconsistencies to win the Golden Ball in 2025, and he was among a crowded field of contenders as the 2026 race got going.

  4. Al-Nassr close the gap! Ronaldo and Felix star in dominant SPL win

    Cristiano Ronaldo got on the scoresheet and Joao Felix was the star of the show as Al-Nassr earnt a fourth straight Saudi Pro League victory in a 3-0 win at Al-Kholood. The win puts Jorge Jesus' side just three points off leaders Al-Hilal and saw Portuguese duo Ronaldo and Felix at the centre of things, as the 40-year-old opened the scoring from close range before Mohamed Simakan headed home a Felix corner and Kingsley Coman struck from the spot to make the result safe.

  5. Why Chelsea fought off Man Utd & Liverpool to sign teen Alao

    Another transfer window and another highly-rated prospect is on their way to Chelsea. The club's youth policy has struck again, with the west Londoners landing 17-year-old full-back Yisa Alao from financially troubled Sheffield Wednesday. Despite his very limited experience at senior level, the teenager provoked a transfer tug-of-war between three Premier League giants, but it is the Blues who have emerged victorious.

  6. From fourth to first: How City became WSL champions-elect

    When the Women's Super League fixtures for the 2025-26 season were released, this Sunday's clash between Manchester City and Chelsea was pinpointed as a big one. That feeling only intensified through the first few weeks of the campaign, as the two teams in blue marked themselves out as the best in the division, winning 12 of their first 14 games combined to sit in the two spots at the top of the table. However, what has transpired in the last three months has made this weekend's meeting feel much less decisive.

La Liga

  1. Carrick wants Rashford back at Man Utd despite Barca stay wish

    Interim Manchester United boss Michael Carrick is reportedly keen on bringing Marcus Rashford back to Old Trafford - if he gets the job permanently. The England international is on loan with La Liga's champions this season, with Hansi Flick's side having an option to make the move permanent this summer.

    Antony has placed himself among the continent's best with his performances in Europe for Real Betis since leaving Manchester United a year ago. After being deemed surplus to requirements at Old Trafford by ex-head coach Ruben Amorim, the winger joined Betis on an initial loan - making an immediate impact to earn a permanent transfer in the summer. The Brazilian is continuing to impress in 2025-26.

Serie A

  1. Jones to leave Liverpool? 'Talks' begin over shock Serie A loan

    Inter are reportedly in talks with Liverpool over a loan move for midfielder Curtis Jones. The Reds academy product is not a regular under manager Arne Slot and that has led to links with the Serie A giants.

  2. Tottenham to rival Inter Milan for Al-Ittihad star Diaby

    Tottenham are reportedly exploring a move to rival Inter Milan for Al-Ittihad star Moussa Diaby.

The winger is said to be open to returning to a Champions League club, which boosts Inter and Spurs' chances of signing him.

    Michael Carrick admits that Bruno Fernandes' Manchester United future is on his agenda amid speculation the Portuguese may leave the club this summer.

  2. Paqueta says two PL giants wanted him before Flamengo move

The playmaker has been linked with a move back to his native Brazil for months now but it took until Friday for the £36.5 million ($50m) transfer to actually happen. But if two English sides had got their way, the 28-year-old may still be a Premier League player.
