It's not only Christmas weight that needs to be shed at this time of the year. Come the Christmas period, Fantasy Premier League managers often use their last opportunity to redeem their first wildcard and revamp teams bloated with point-fearing players. Consider recruiting one of the following players if you are undergoing a last-minute clean-out of your FPL squad. Abdoulaye Doucoure, Watford Abdoulaye Doucoure…

Buoyed by two wins in his first two matches, interim Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer can feel confident of being backed financially to achieve in the Premier League or in Europe this season.

Southampton, 1998/99 When Santa Claus was making his way down the world’s chimneys on Christmas Day 1998, there was little festive cheer to be found in Southampton.

CHAMPION HILL, LONDON — Ten months away from home. That’s how long Dulwich Hamlet spent exiled from Champion Hill. When property developers Meadow Residential locked them out of their ground in March, it seemed like an existential threat to a club which had been one of non-league football’s greatest success stories in the years previous. Thousands of fans were left with the prospect of nowhere to go…

WEMBLEY STADIUM, LONDON — That’s 11 goals in two matches either side of Christmas. That’s 45 points from 19 games, Tottenham‘s best start to a season since the Glory Glory year of 1961. That’s a point more than Manchester City. They will never win the league, though. To suggest so is to invite death by rotten fruit and titters. Never mind are they challengers.…
