England‘s World Cup ambitions ended in familiar sights of tears and broken aspirations as the curse of missed penalties came to haunt them. After going a goal down, the Three Lions were brought back into the game via a Harry Kane penalty. They again had to chase the game when Giroud put France ahead. 2-1. …
The Qatar World Cup gained a reputation for some impressive, controversial-free refereeing in the group stages of the tournament. There weren’t really too many mistakes made by the referee in the initial stages, with VAR also doing their job just as intended. But that entire reputation has turned upside-down as we move into the business …
Chelsea are absolutely flying. In more ways than one. Since Graham Potter was appointed as manager of Chelsea, he has won 6 games out of a possible 9, drawing the other three and losing none. It is as good a start as any. Last night, Chelsea battled RB Salzburg for a confirmed spot in the …
With two out of three days of the midweek Premier League game week done, we can now look at some of the highs and lows of FPL. This GW, continuing the theme from the weekend, was much better for defenders and not so much for the attackers. Only 8 goals were scored over seven games, …
The dreaded GW12 is upon us. With Man City and Arsenal fixture blanks, this is anyway a challenging week to field a playing XI in FPL. To add to that, Tuesday’s deadline is quite possibly the shortest turnaround time one could possibly get. With just one full day between game weeks, managers need to be …
Fan culture in football has evolved in numerous ways over the past few years, especially in regard to fanfare around players.

The much-hailed Premier League Derby Weekend certainly did not disappoint, with plenty of action and reaction for everyone and their brother.

The international break is almost over and Premier League football is back, and of course, so is FPL. The return of club football brings with it two tasty derbies to feast upon – the Manchester Derby and the North London Derby. And then there are a host of other matches that are bound to bring …
Football is no stranger to fashion fails, and no, we aren’t referring to the weird apparel choices of some players. Instead, these include errors that relate directly to the very kits players wear, and most of them could have been avoided pretty easily. Take for example Chelsea who audaciously forgot to pack their away kit …

The Premier League season is less than a month away. It’s like football never went off the air, but for avid fans, the gap between the already concluded season and the new one is of a lifetime. Patience is thin, but the clubs have much to offer in terms of pre-season friendlies before the season …
