The football blog for fans of all clubs
At the end of season awards last week, Paul McGuinness was the United coach who had the hardest task.

[…]

West Ham v Reading 16:00  – West Ham may have been forgiven for thinking they were extras to the David Moyes show in their last outing, as the Hammers lost 2-0 to Everton in Moyes’ last home game in charge of the Toffees. However, Kevin Nolan twice went close to raining on the soon […]

Much of the speculation has focused on which stars the big-spending Citizens want to sign, with Napoli’s £50 million-rated Uruguayan striker Edison Cavani and Cagliari defender Davide Astori said to top their shopping list. However, UEFA’s Financial Fair Play regulations and the Premier League’s squad size restrictions mean there are likely to be more exits […]
This time last year it was all going so well for Roberto Mancini and Manchester City. Two goals deep into injury time during the last match of the season against QPR meant the Italian had delivered City’s first title in 44 years in the most dramatic circumstances imaginable. The long wait was over. City, who […]
Chelsea won the Europa League final this evening following an injury time winning head from Branislav Ivanovic, after Benfica had earlier had a goal wrongly disallowed for offside. John Terry was not in the squad after being ruled out through injury yet still took to the pitch wearing his full kit. The Chelsea captain received […]
In his 26 years in charge of Manchester United, he’s pretty much done everything he could have achieved several times over. A total of 38 trophies, amounting to nearly three every two seasons, is pretty impressive; but the fact that they’ve won 13 Premier League crowns is even more astonishing. Their latest league win was […]
Chelsea defender David Luiz says everyone at the club would welcome Wayne Rooney with open arms. The England striker, once a firm favourite with betting fans in the first goalscorer markets with Paddy Power, has appeared to fall down the pecking order at Manchester United in recent months and outgoing boss Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed […]
The cruel truth is that our season seems over. Sunderland inspire so little confidence that many, maybe most supporters feel at least they’ll know the worst by tomorrow night. In other words, Wigan fail to win and we survive, they win and we go down, since few consider Sunderland up to doing the job for […]
Pompous, arrogant, so full of self confidence it borders on delusions of grandeur. Sorry, I’m waffling but that is what came to mind when I was deciding who is the typical French footballer. I mean they’ve had their fair share of these egotistical, overrated and more often than not, offensive to look at footballers. So, […]
