Chelsea berada dalam prestasi yang agak teruk kerana banyak sebab walaupun telah melabur banyak untuk membeli pasukan pada musim panas lalu dan Januari tahun ini.

Ten Hag’s side are going into this weekend’s Premier League fixture high in confidence, having knocked Barcelona out of the Europa League before winning the Carabao Cup. United have not beaten their north-west rivals at Anfield since January 2016 but Ten Hag is hopeful that will change this Sunday. “I’m looking forward to it, the ambience, the atmosphere,” said Ten Hag. “It will be great, it will be hostile against us, but we like that. “It is, of course, a test, but we’re facing Liverpool, we’re really looking…

Barcelona compromised their usual free-flowing football to earn a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Real Madrid in the first leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final clash Carlo Ancelotti has criticised Barcelona’s tactics and claimed that they didn’t deserve to beat his Real Madrid side 1-0 in a fiery Copa del Rey semi-final first leg. An own-goal from Nacho midway through the first half gives Barca a slender advantage over their arch-enemies going into round two, as Xavi’s team produced a superb defensive display to grind out a victory. Real Madrid dominated possession in the 102nd edition of El Clasico but failed to register a shot on target in a…

Cristiano Ronaldo has won five Ballon d’Ors in his sparkling career but elected to sell one of his replica trophies back in 2017. Typically, those who have had the honour of winning the Ballon d’Or hand over the replica version to the club they won it playing for. Or alternatively, it ends up in their own personal trophy collection or museum. But when it comes to his 2013 Ballon d’Or, Ronaldo asked for it to donated it to charity, as per MARCA. It went to auction, with all the proceeds going to Make-A-Wish, the charity which helps children suffering from serious…
The Ballon d’Or award has been caught up in a scandal after a player claims his votes were altered when made public. Juvenal Edjogo, who played for the likes of Levante, Alaves and Tenerife, was eligible to vote for the 2013 prize as he was captain of the Equatorial Guinea national team. The 43-year-old is adamant that he had both Didier Drogba and Andres Iniesta in his top three contrary to official voting forms stating he had opted for both Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Since that point, the midfielder has completely dismissed the significance of the awards as a…
Carlo Ancelotti was far from impressed by Barcelona’s defensive performance during Real Madrid’s 1-0 defeat to their El Clasico rivals on Thursday night. The feisty first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final was decided by a first-half Eder Militao own goal after Thibaut Courtois had parried Franck Kessie’s strike straight into the helpless defender. Real Madrid failed to register a single shot on target, and and although Ancelotti admitted the result ‘hurt’, he remains confident that the LaLiga champions can turn the tie around when the teams meet again at the Nou Camp in just over two weeks. Despite Barcelona putting in a…
Casemiro has been brilliant for Man United but there is a problem Erik ten Hag must address. Casemiro has transformed United (Image: Ash Donelon/Manchester United via Getty Images) No summer signing has had as much of a positive impact on their new club this season as Casemiro. Not even Erling Haaland and his freakish ability to stick the ball in the back of the net has been as transformative for a side’s fortunes as Casemiro. Many turned their noses up when Manchester United spent £60million on a player aged 30 but he has already shown he is worth every penny. Not only has the Brazilian lynchpin done…
Carlo Ancelotti appeared in the press room at the Santiago Bernabéu after the Clásico in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals: “Barcelona didn’t deserve to win and that’s obvious. This defeat will not cause any after-effects because we are satisfied with our performance. It’s very difficult to control the game against Barcelona as we did today. We are aware that we have to come back, but it wouldn’t be the first time we’ve come from behind in a tie. We’re hurt by the result, but we will go into the second leg confidently. “It was a good game. We played an intense game,…
Cristiano Ronaldo has denied a ‘completely false’ claim by a married Venezuelan influencer that she had sex with the footballer last year.

Georgilaya claimed Ronaldo sent her a text and invited her to his hotel room after she posed for selfies with Ronaldo and his Portuguese teammates, reports The Sun. She said: ‘When I read the message, I thought that if I went there we would just talk, get to know…
Fred believes Erik ten Hag and Casemiro have helped transform the mentality at Old Trafford for Carabao Cup winners Manchester United. After limping from game to game towards the end of a wretched 2021-22 season, the Red Devils have looked rejuvenated since the summer appointment of the meticulous Dutchman. Ten Hag has overseen a sea change in quality and culture at United, who picked up their first trophy in six years after beating Newcastle in Sunday’s Carabao Cup final. They overcame Barcelona to reach the last 16 of the Europa League last week while also coming back from 1-0 down to beat West Ham 3-1 and make…
LONDON: Luis Enrique dan Zinedine Zidane antara calon utama yang bakal menggantikan pengendali Chelsea sekiranya Graham Potter dipecat. Potter menerima tekanan hebat di Stamford Bridge selepas deretan keputusan hambar yang menyaksikan Chelsea hanya menang sekali dalam 11 perlawanan terakhir, dan hanya menjaringkan enam gol dalam enam perlawanan terakhir, selepas berbelanja besar pada Januari. Walaupun menerima sokongan padu pemilik, Todd Boehly sehingga saat ini, dipercayai dua perlawanan berikutnya menentang Leeds dan Borussia Dortmund akan menjadi penentu masa depan bekas bos Brighton itu, yang hanya menang sembilan kali dalam 26 perlawanan. Jika gagal merakam kemenangan pada aksi hujung minggu ini dan Selasa…

There is no doubt that Khvicha Kvaratskhelia is currently one of the most in-demand players in Europe, having enjoyed a blistering 2022/23 campaign. In just 20 league matches, the attacker has racked up ten goals and eleven assists for Napoli, almost single-handedly leading the Partenopei‘s charge for the Serie A title.

Recent reports even indicate that the Spanish champions are contemplating a €100 million swoop for the youngster at the end of the season.

It’s a frosty December morning in Madrid. But inside its swish Hotel Ritz, there is the warm buzz of money and power. Real Madrid president Florentino Perez and Barcelona counterpart Joan Laporta enter together, just as the breakfast event at which they are the star guests is about to begin. The diminutive pair of 75-year-old Perez and Laporta, 60, are guided to their seats under carved ceilings and glass chandeliers by the much taller Bernd Reichart, CEO of A22 Sports Management — the company promoting the stalled European Super League project. Neither Perez nor Laporta are here to say anything but to be seen offering…

The Brazilian midfielder was once again instrumental for United as they beat Newcastle in the League Cup final.

However, the midfielder accepts that while United are doing well, they are still some way off the top two.
