Guardiola, the FA, and Boris Johnson Walk into a Bar

As June gets closer and the World Cup flaunts its sinuous curves, it's time to consider what happens to the FA if the Anglo-Russian relations get worse. Political tensions between the UK and Russia are sparking like an over-filled plug socket and a series of "My dad's bigger than your dad" battles between the respective…

Virgil: An Addition to Poetry in Motion

At last, the Virgil van Dijk saga is at an end, but not in the way that most would’ve expected. City, yet again, seemed poised to flex their financial muscle, and with a Premier League - and God knows what else - winner’s medal almost a certainty, van Dijk looked set for a move to…

Chelsea vs. Arsenal threatened to break into something entertaining, but a rare disciplined performance from the Gunners meant the game ended in deadlock.…

Panicked Palace

De Boer: the first of many to be bucked off the Premier League’s managerial circus. Did he deserve to go? Probably not. But there did seem to be a certain inevitability that followed this brief saga. A former Allardyce and Tony Pulis team, in the hands of a fancy Dutch manager who wants his players…

Careless, Reckless or Excessive Force – The plight of the Premier League Refs

  12:30pm. Manchester City vs. Liverpool. The stage is set for an incredible game. Two titans of English football, new and old, ready to rut like autumnal stags.

Newcastle United’s Turbulent Summer – Rory Mellon

Walking out of St James’ Park there was a tangible buzz in the air, a jubilance that hadn’t be emitting from the iconic stadium for over a decade. There was a sense that at long last, a sleeping giant was awaking and under Rafa Benítez Newcastle United were entering a new golden age.   On…
