WATCH: Bertrand Traore’s laser has Chelsea up on Stoke

Guus Hiddink has been getting Chelsea more organized and getting results. He has been giving Chelsea youth players chances to play and one of them has been 20 year old Bertrand Traore. Traore rewared the temporary manager by filling in for the injured Diego Costa and scored a great goal. Brilliant strike from Bertrand Traore!

WATCH: Harry Kane’s golazo put Spurs ahead, Sanchez equalizes for Arsenal while down a man

What a difference a few minutes makes. After a rather stupid Francis Coquelin red card, Tottenham went into overdrive just minutes after that foul on Harry Kane. First, Toby Alderweireld was able to get open and score off of the corner to equalize. Next, just two minutes after the equalizer, Harry Kane blasted an unbelievable […]

WATCH: Aaron Ramsey’s backheel flick puts Arsenal up 1-0 over Tottenham

In a must win game for both teams’ Premier League title aspirations, Aaron Ramsey put Arsenal up 1-0 thanks to a crafty pass from Hector Bellerin and a fancy backheel flick from Ramsey.

Spurs, Arsenal face elevated stakes in North London Derby

Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal never need any additional motivation to perform well in the North London Derby, but the tension for Saturday’s edition at White Hart Lane is as high as it has been in years. With the two sides sitting second and third in the table behind Leicester City, getting points from this match […]

Are Manchester City now out of the Premier League title race?

With the 3-0 loss to Liverpool yesterday, Manchester City sit on tied on points, though with a game in hand, with city rivals Manchester United. They may have won the Capital One Cup, but Manchester City now find themselves in a scrap for 4th, not just the title. We have to ask, does this loss take Manchester […]

With Manchester City’s loss, fourth place in the EPL has broken wide open

Last weekend, it was pretty much a certainty that in some order, Leicester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal and Manchester City would finish in the top four. All of a sudden, Manchester City has lost three straight EPL games and didn’t play last weekend. This has caused a lot of teams to get within reach of […]

The top four EPL teams apparently didn’t want to win the title this midweek

Earlier this week, I said that this week was the most important week of the remaining English Premier League schedule because with two games this week, the title picture can be drastically different. Apparently none of the four teams took my advice as only Leicester gained a point and Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester City all […]

Could a Jose Mourinho-Louis van Gaal team be exactly what Manchester United need?

Coaching egos may only be outstripped by those of the players they manage, but the thought of two of the biggest egos in modern football — Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho — teaming up together seems far-fetched. However, according to Barney Roaney of The Guardian in the U.K., it is a possibility that Manchester […]

Video: Riyad Mahrez sets up Andy King goal for Leicester City with amazing pass

A year ago today Leicester City were at the bottom of the Premier League table, but when players like Riyad Mahrez are making sublime passes like the one to set up Andy King, you can see why they’ve turned it around. Leicester City found themselves behind early against visiting West Bromwich Albion, but they turned […]

With 3 points since Christmas, what happened to Crystal Palace? Could they get relegated?

Oh how the mighty have fallen. On Christmas Day, Crystal Palace was in 6th place, tied with Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United for 4th. Just two months and 10 games later, Palace sit 14th, 15 points behind the top four. This was a team that I thought could have been a dark horse to grab […]

With potential 12 point swings for those in the top four, this week is the most important week of the EPL season

This week marks the final midweek slate of games for the English Premier League season. This means that by this time next week, all 20 teams would have played in two games and thus have the ability to win anywhere from zero to six points. For the top four contenders for the EPL title, this […]

Leicester City’s win over Norwich shows they are title favorites

It used to be a familiar sight at Old Trafford. When Sir Alex Ferguson was winning Premier League titles in the 90’s and 00’s it seemed like it almost happened weekly. A smaller club would come in to Old Trafford and their tactics would be that of ‘damage control.’ They’d keep nine or 10 men […]

What can Manchester City and Liverpool learn from the Capital One Cup Final?

The Capital One Cup final was a taxing match for both sets of fans. It was an exciting, nervy match that needed to be decided by penalty kicks. Now that the dust has cleared a bit, the rest of the season can continue. There are a lot of lessons that both sets of players can learn […]
