Just In: Man United have found perfect David de Gea replacement

Image
Manchester United have reportedly lined up goalkeeper David de Gea replacement in the person of Everton shotstopper Jordan Pickford... The 31-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season, though United have the option of extending his deal by a further 12 months. The Spaniard is the club’s second highest earner behind Cristiano Ronaldo, earning a basic salary of around £350,000-a-week. But De Gea’s performances have not reflected his status as one of the highest earners in world football and the former Atletico Madrid ace has made an indifferent start to the campaign...

Reece James injury Update and return Date finally revealed

Image
See the latest update on Chelsea defender Reece James injury and possible return date. Reece James has been in outstanding form this season but hobbled off against AC Milan in the Champions League earlier this week and is set for a short spell on the sidelines. The England international performed expertly well in the reverse fixture against the Italian champions and became the youngest Chelsea player to score and assist in the same Champions League game in the 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge. But his outing at the San Siro was less successful after he lasted just 62 minutes before he was forced off with a knee problem. According to Evening Standard, James will undergo further tests before Chelsea discover the extent of the damage. The report claims that Graham Potter's side are 'optimistic' he'll make a quick recovery and Phillips reckons he's likely to sit out the meetings with Aston Villa and Brentford and is targeting the visit of Manchester United on Saturday week.

Why sending off Tomori was the correct call in Milan’s UCL loss to Chelsea

Image
The red card to Fikayo Tomori was a key moment in Milan’s loss to Chelsea yesterday but despite seeming harsh, it was technically the correct call according to the laws of the game. In the 17th minute of the match, the English defender was beaten to a through-ball by Mason Mount and found himself on the wrong side of the Chelsea man. Mount managed to get a limp shot away after jostling with Tomori and eyebrows were instantly raised when referee Daniel Siebert pointed to the spot and produced a red card, sending off the Rossoneri centre back. Replays showed that Tomori had his right hand clutched on Mount’s shoulder and he seemingly made two attempts to pull back the Englishman, who did his best to stay on his feet. A penalty was seemingly a harsh call but the sending off further infuriated and confused fans, especially those who thought of the ‘double jeopardy’ rule.  In Law 12 of the IFAB’s Laws of the Game, denying a goal scoring opportunity in the penalty area is only a yellow c...

The major reason why Casemiro is not starting Man Utd games

Image
The major reason why Casemiro is not starting Man Utd games Casemiro shocked the football world by leaving Real Madrid to join Manchester United in the summer in a deal that could rise up to £70 million with add-ons. On paper, it made very little sense for the Brazilian. He left the European champions for a club that are not even in the competition this year. But then, rumours suggested that Casemiro was almost going to double his wages with his move from Real Madrid. On the other hand, for Los Blancos, it was perhaps way too good of an offer to turn down, since the Brazilian is 30 years of age. Real Madrid have been proven right in their decision since then as Aurelien Tchouameni has seamlessly stepped in in the absence of Casemiro and his ceiling might be even higher than the Brazilian legend. On the other hand, Casemiro has not even been able to establish himself in the starting XI of Manchester United. We saw another example of that this week as he was only brought off the bench, a...

Manchester United vs Burnley 2024

Image
Manchester United could muster only a point against Burnley on Saturday after substitute Zeki Amdouni scored a late penalty to rescue a 1-1 Premier League draw for the relegation-threatened side. Burnley's 87th-minute penalty, awarded after goalkeeper Andre Onana fouled Amdouni in the box, cancelled out a late strike by Antony and leaves Erik ten Hag's team sixth in the standings. The draw was a blow to United's fading hopes of a European qualifying spot, as they sit six points behind fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur who have two games in hand. Burnley, who are 19th, kept alive their survival hopes with the draw. United squandered numerous chances and had Onana to thank for keeping Burnley off the scoresheet before Antony broke the deadlock in the 79th minute. The Brazilian intercepted a poor pass and sprinted into the box before finishing into the bottom corner. A fan handed Antony a Sonic the Hedgehog toy, which was hoisted aloft in celebration. The good mood at Old T...

Graham Potter's dream Chelsea line up with Christopher Nkunku and 3 new signings

Image
Graham Potter's dream Chelsea line up with Christopher Nkunku and 3 new signings Graham Potter’s Chelsea career is officially up and running after he earned his first Blues victory in dramatic circumstances. It’s been almost a month since Potter replaced Tuchel in the Stamford Bridge dugout, but the trip to Crystal Palace represented the first Premier League match under his stewardship. And Chelsea got off to the worst possible start at Selhurst Park, falling behind after just seven minutes. But Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang - signed by his predecessor - scored the equaliser, before Conor Gallagher smashed in an injury-time winner. The result lifts Chelsea to fifth in the Premier League table with sights firmly set on the top four. After spending more than £200million in the summer window, new owner Todd Boehly clearly displayed his intentions and he looks set to do so again for his new boss. In fact, Chelsea appear to have already got a head-start on their rivals, with reports claimin...

Chelsea FC XI vs Aston Villa: Predicted lineup, injury latest and confirmed team news for Premier League game Graham Potter will be without Reece James for Chelsea’s trip to Aston Villa on Sunday as the club await on news confirming the extent of his injury. The 22-year-old came off with a knee injury at AC Milan and will now be assessed by a specialist amid concerns that he could be out for several weeks and require surgery. James could even miss selection for England’s upcoming World Cup campaign in Qatar with N’Golo Kante also likely to miss to France’s tournament. Furthermore, Wesley Fofana has been ruled out until after the World Cup, leaving Chelsea without three major players. Without James on Sunday, the Blues will likely move into a back four and look for attacking impetus elsewhere on the pitch. Chelsea had already been accustomed to coping without Kante and Fofana ahead of a busy period in the Premier League - with Brentford and Manchester United to come next week. Kepa Arri...

Man Utd Best Line up against Everton

Image
Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is likely to make some changes to his starting XI after suffering a 6-3 defeat to their city rivals Manchester City last weekend. The Red Devils saw a streak of four successive league wins come to a crashing end at the Etihad Stadium, with only a late brace from substitute Anthony Martial making the scoreline appear less embarrassing for his side. The France forward scored from the bench again to help Man Utd turn the game around against Omonia in the Europa League on Thursday, and he appears to be in line for his first start of the season having impressed during pre-season before suffering a serious tendon injury. Marcus Rashford, who bagged a brace despite only coming on at half-time of his side's 3-2 win in Cyprus in midweek, could shift to the left flank in order to accommodate Martial through the middle, with Jadon Sancho likely to make way after being hooked at half-time. Ten Hag branded his side as being "not very good" in his po...
