[ad_1] Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta has revealed how Thomas Tuchel’s reenergising of the club’s changing room played a huge part in their shock Champions League success in 2021. Tuchel succeeded Frank Lampard as Chelsea boss in January 2021 and less than five months later was celebrating victory in European club’s football primary competition, after beating Manchester City in the Champions League final. Chelsea were a lowly ninth in the Premier League table when Tuchel took over, and although they had progressed through to the knockout stages of the Champions League, the Blues had offered little to suggest they were capable of making it to theRead More →

[ad_1] Palmeiras manager Abel Ferreira has called out Manchester United’s Erik ten Hag over his scheduling complaints, insisting the Dutchman does not know the meaning of being overloaded. Marcus Rashford limped off injured during the recent 2-0 win over Everton, after which Ten Hag blamed United’s hectic schedule for the issue and challenged the Premier League to make a change. That was United’s third game in just six days, but Ten Hag found no sympathy from Ferreira who, despite watching his side win the Campeonato Paulista, was in no mood to humour the United man’s concerns. “Football here has some fantastic qualities, but there areRead More →

[ad_1] Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti says he intends to ‘respect’ his contract at the club, amid continued speculation that he could become Brazil’s new boss. The veteran Italian also moved to deny suggestions that his assistant and son, Davide, will be departing the Bernabeu in the near future. The senior Ancelotti has been the subject of intense speculation, with officials from the Brazilian FA making it abundantly clear that they are keen to hire him at the end of the season, but he has always brushed off the rumours. As 90min reported recently, Ancelotti is keen to remain in Madrid but has not yetRead More →

[ad_1] Gameweek 30 could be the one we look back on when this season comes to an end. There were some massive moments at both ends of the table which could end up deciding the final look of the Premier League table, and as always, the goals didn’t disappoint either. Here are the best strikes from gameweek 30. Breaking the deadlock in style 🔥@McTominay10 x @RemingtonUK#MUFC || #MUNEVE — Manchester United (@ManUtd) April 8, 2023 The goalscoring phenom that is Scott McTominay was back at it again this weekend. A smart run from the Scot, who flashed real composure to fire Man Utd ahead againstRead More →

[ad_1] Manchester United captain Harry Maguire insists he has done himself ‘justice’ with his performances this season, but is adamant that he won’t be satisfied until he plays every game. From being one of the first names on the teamsheet under former manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Maguire has unceremoniously tumbled down the pecking order at Old Trafford this season – Erik ten Hag has preferred a Lisandro Martinez-Raphael Varane partnership and will also often turn to Victor Lindelof from the bench if he wants an extra layer of defensive protection. Maguire was dropped in the wake of the humiliating 4-0 defeat to Brentford back inRead More →

[ad_1] Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) have confirmed they have opened an investigation into an incident involving Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson and one of the assistant referees from Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal. After the half-time whistle was blown, Robertson went to confront official Constantine Hatzidakis, who brushed off the Scot and appeared to catch him in the face. Robertson and Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson furiously reported the incident to lead referee Paul Tierney but their heated protests resulted in a yellow card for the left-back. Now, PGMOL have confirmed they will look into the incident. “PGMOL is aware of an incident involving assistantRead More →

[ad_1] Jesse Marsch has failed to finalise a deal with Leicester City to become their new manager, sources have confirmed to 90min. Leicester opened talks with Marsch on Friday but, after coming close to agreement over the weekend, the American has now walked away from the process. Marsch is understood to have wanted reassurances about the club’s long-term plans, especially if they were relegated this season. He has now walked away from the opportunity after talking with his own coaching staff about the job. Leicester had moved for Marsch after failing to persuade Graham Potter to walk straight into the job after he left ChelseaRead More →

[ad_1] Bayern Munich midfielder Ryan Gravenberch has argued he is enjoying his battle for minutes in the German capital. Few midfielders in world football were as highly rated as Gravenberch when he made his £20m move from Ajax to Bayern in the summer of 2022, but his spell in Munich has not exactly gone to plan. Indeed, the 20-year-old has managed just one start in the Bundesliga, and none of his 17 appearances in the competition have lasted longer than 45 minutes. “I had certainly hoped and also expected that I would play more at Bayern,” Gravenberch told Ajax Showtime. “It’s a shame for me,Read More →

[ad_1] Jurgen Klopp has revealed his disappointment at Ibrahima Konate’s miss in the final seconds of Liverpool’s draw with Arsenal. The Reds were thoroughly outplayed in the opening 30 minutes of the game on Sunday, conceding two goals and a boatload of chances. However, after a confrontation between Trent Alexander-Arnold and Granit Xhaka sparked the Anfield crowd into life, Liverpool began to find a route back into the game. First Mohamed Salah would make it 2-1, before Roberto Firmino would bag an 87th minute equaliser. It could’ve gotten even better for Liverpool too as the Reds spurned a number of glorious chances to win theRead More →

[ad_1] Liverpool recovered from a two-goal deficit to hold Premier League-leading Arsenal to a 2-2 draw in a breathless encounter on Merseyside on Sunday afternoon. First-half goals from Arsenal’s Brazilian Gabriels, Martinelli and Jesus, gave the visitors a heartily deserved advantage. Yet, the hosts recovered to claim a point through Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino in the 87th minute – though that tells very little of an enthralling story of a contest. Mikel Arteta reverently likened Anfield to a ‘jungle’ before the match and Jurgen Klopp underlined the theme when detailing his side’s out-of-possession approach. “When they have the ball,” Klopp urged, “we have toRead More →
