There is nothing to do not love Declan Rice, but we have to apply some perspective before we explain it from world class to score two free kicks against Real Madrid. He comes across as a great guy, I like to hear him speak and he talks with great honesty. I am sure he is […]
At Arsenal they call this their biggest game for 20 years. That says a lot about the work that Mikel Arteta has done to bring Arsenal back to this level, but also something about the lows they have experienced by the end of the Arsene Wenger and then. Now that they are here, what is
There were no flashy artists -with a 'Trident' of Masten or huge 'umbrella' Luifel when Everton started to create a stadium to replace Goodison Park. In contrast to the £ 2 billion blockbuster 'Eiffel Tower of the North' by Manchester United, the Merseyside Club just had their architect phase a series of fan workshops in
England added a veneer of respectability to an evening of boredom with a few second half blooms against Latvia on Monday evening. But don't fool yourself that this was the start of the revolution. Thomas Tuchel would come in like a whirlwind. So far he has been more on a light breeze. These are of

It was the morning after England was demolished by Germany in the final of Germany and Sir Trevor Brooking soaked through the rubble in a Malmo hotel. An obvious problem in the eyes of Brooking, when the technical director of the FA, in conversation with a small number of newspaper reporters, was that we did

Thomas Tuchel is right to encourage more dribbling from England because it is not enough in the modern game. The real trick is to identify the right players who can do it. For someone so fast, dynamic, physical and competent as Marcus Rashford, it is a no-brainer-je must tell him that he has to run
Nobody can listen to what Thomas Tuchel said and hears something other than a two-footed at Gareth Southgate. No clear playing style, no clarity, no rhythm, no repetition of patterns. If Southgate belongs, you can't imagine that he will be too in love. He will think it's hard. I find it unnecessary and unfair. When
Tuchel was wrong to criticise Southgate’s approach, writes SUTTON Read More »
The problem is that we know what is happening now. Eight qualifying games in the World Cup and Harry Kane will be the goals. He is always on this point and there is absolutely nothing about his domestic form or his suitability to suggest that it will be different against Albania, Latvia, Andorra and Serbia.
Thomas Tuchel MUST solve the Harry Kane conundrum, writes IAN LADYMAN Read More »
A Manchester United star left a brutal message on the Bruno Fernandes game ball after he scored a Europa League-Hattrick on Thursday evening. Fernandes dragged United to victory against Real Sociedad in Old Trafford and scored two penalties on the way to a match -winning trio of goals. He scored his third of open game

With their Dead-Rubber Champions League Last-16 second stage against PSV Eindhoven, Arsenal can now look ahead. The 7-1 Drubbing of PSV in the Philips Stadium last week made a hassle on Wednesday evening. It is Real Madrid with whom the Gunners will be confronted next month in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, but the

This is not a hagiography of Mikel Arteta. I am not all-in on the Arsenal boss. To begin with, who gets a dog to help the team binding and calls it 'victory'? It feels like something from a leadership manual David Brent. That poor chocolate Labrador, stuck with such a name for the rest of
