Stoke City nips Everton in seven-goal thriller

The days of Stoke City bunkering in and hoping for the odd set piece scoring chance are long gone. The Potters scored overturned a 3-2 deficit to win, 4-3, on a penalty kick from Marko Arnautovic at Goodison Park Monday. The controversial penalty decision against John Stones helped Stoke City jump up to eighth in […]

Spurs show title contender status with gritty win over Watford

To say the 2015-16 English Premier League season has been a wild one would be a gross understatement. Months of waiting for tiny Leicester City to fall off has lead only to the Foxes still sitting atop of the EPL table, Watford have gone from relegation favorites to fighting for a European spot and Chelsea […]

Does Liverpool’s 1-0 win over Leicester City say more about Liverpool or Leicester City?

Someone finally figured out how to keep Leicester City from scoring. Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool held the EPL league leaders to no goals for the first time this season in a 1-0 game. After Divock Origi had an apparent hamstring injury, Christian Benteke was subbed on and scored the game winning goal in the 63rd […]

Could Jürgen Klopp’s high tempo style be leading to a high number of injuries?

On Saturday, Liverpool were the first team to hold league leaders, Leicester City, scoreless for a full 90 minutes. The Reds won 1:0, with Christian Benteke scoring the lone goal for the home side. Benteke came on as a substitute, however, and not the kind of tactical sub managers love to take credit for. No, […]

Who should Manchester United fans want as their manager?

After another completely lifeless performance in a 2-0 loss to Stoke, their fourth loss in a row, Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal’s seat has never been hotter. With several high profile managers either available or becoming available, several writers and fans have begun calling for the Dutchman to lose his job. United fans have […]

Tears for Piers: The Boxing Day 2015 edition

Piers Morgan is a very polarizing figure. He’s a very opinionated person and really doesn’t care what anyone thinks of him. To be honest, I can kind of respect him for that. But a lot of times, Piers Morgan can be irritating, especially irritating when he’s talking about his beloved Arsenal Football Club. It’s not […]

WATCH: Cuco Martina curls an unbelievable goal against Arsenal

Stop what you are doing and watch this incredible goal by Southampton’s Cuco Martina against Arsenal. Martina put Southampton up 1-0 and although it looked like it would be a late entrant in the Best Goal of 2015 race, he sure didn’t expect to be scoring that. Forget Beckham, it's time to bend it like […]

Watch: Christian Benteke puts Liverpool in the lead and channels his inner LeBron

Jürgen Klopp opted to start Divock Origi in place of Belgian striker Christian Benteke today. Origi didn’t last long, however, and he was subbed out late in the first half after picking up a hamstring injury. Benteke came on with the game still scoreless and didn’t have much of an impact until shortly after the […]

Van Gaal’s days numbered at Manchester United, but is it really his fault?

As the final whistle blew and the scoreboard read 2-0 Stoke City, the visiting Manchester United walked away embarrassed and throughly defeated by a side with little of the history, big name players or lofty wage bill of themselves. It wasn’t the first time in the 2015-16 campaign under Louis Van Gaal, but it may […]

WATCH: Marko Arnautovic curls a rocket to put Stoke up 2-0 on Manchester United

If this was a must win for Louis van Gaal to keep his job as Manchester United manager, he sure started out in one of the worst ways imaginable. First, Stoke went up 1-0 after Memphis fell down and they went up 2-0 in the 26th minute, after Marko Arnautovic curled this incredible strike to […]

WATCH: Liverpool FC First Team ‘Enjoy’ a Secret Santa

The Liverpool First Team took some time off of training the other day to take part in a Secret Santa. While there were some great ones, like Philippe Coutinho knowing exactly what to get Jose Enrique, others were not so lucky (sorry, Joe Allen). Jurgen Klopp even got in on the fun, with Nathaniel Clyne […]

Leicester City won’t be sellers in January transfer window

Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez — the Leicester City duo sit atop the English Premier League score charts and sit atop most big clubs wish lists heading in to the January transfer window. Easy call — sell high if you’re the Foxes. At least that seems to be the logic, and in most years a […]
