Christmas is nearly here and Santa is busy taking his reindeer crew to the vet, burnishing his sleigh and going on a diet of sorts so as to slim down enough to fit through tight chimneys! No doubt you currently feel like getting fully in the mood of the season and yodelling your joy about […]

Ander Herrera‘s diligent sprinting towards Bernd Leno paid off, as his hope of a fumble from the Arsenal goalkeeper came to fruition after Marcos Rojo’s free-kick. His cross from the rebounded save found Anthony Martial, who equalised on the half hour mark. Manchester United had conceded only four minutes earlier, a header from Shkodran Mustafi cleared […]

Jonathan Albon could be a millionaire by lunchtime on Sunday. All he has to do is win a 24-hour running race, covering 100 miles of hilly six-mile laps with obstacles including monkey bars, sandbags and walls interrupting him every half mile or so. Oh, and his run will be in Iceland. Where it is daylight […]

Manchester United David De Gea 4/10 Complete howler trying to catch Mustafi’s header. Beaten with a soft shot for Lacazette’s. Also saw Mkhitaryan smash a disallowed volley past the face of goal. Grew as the game went on, but overall a poor showing. Matteo Darmian 4/10 Not that confident on the ball, nor persuasive in […]

Great football between great teams can be enthralling. Football between one great team and one poor team can be enjoyable too, although usually provokes interest rather than intrigue. Football between two poor teams is often hugely entertaining, although not always aesthetically. But for the perfect football recipe, you need good players doing things badly. Neither […]

It was a fairy tale nobody believed would ever be written. And Barnsley was a town where nobody believed it would be set. Yet, as the clock ticked down on 26 April 1997, the distant dream was about to be realised. All Barnsley needed were three more points to guarantee their place in the Premiership. […]

Preview and odds for Premier League tie There’s a Premier League classic in store tonight as Manchester United host Arsenal at Old Trafford. But this isn’t the bygone days of Ferguson v Wenger. Tonight sees an under-fire Jose Mourinho welcome an Arsenal side flourishing under Unai Emery. Old Trafford hasn’t been kind to the London […]

Sadio Mane has been a Fantasy Premier League favourite since he banged in two goals in the opening gameweek of the season, setting the tone for a fruitful campaign. This form has seen 32.3 per cent of FPL players recruit the Senegalese attacker, who has now racked up 80 points, the ninth most in the league […]

Kieran Trippier has once again been a standout player for Tottenham this season, playing a key part in four clean sheets and chipping in with four assists and a goal too. His impressive form has seen him earn 59 Fantasy Premier League points. In Gameweeks 13 and 14, however, the full-back was sidelined with a […]

It can be difficult to measure the predominant feeling of a football club’s fan base, but Arsenal’s appointment of Unai Emery seemed to be considered underwhelming by large swathes of the Gunners’ support. The former Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain boss may have won eight trophies in his previous five seasons in management, but he is […]
