Chris Sutton the player was much like Chris Sutton the pundit: People seem to either love him or hate him. Those that enjoy his work will say he’s passionate and honest, while those that dislike him will say he’s arrogant and biased. Growing up I supported the blue half of Glasgow and that meant Sutton […]

There was a huge buzz when Manchester United beat Manchester City to the signature of Alexis Sanchez back in January. Yet it has so far not really worked out for the Chilean at Old Trafford. Alexis has played eight times for the Red Devils. In that period, he has missed a penalty but scored the rebound […]

I loved the Italian World Cup 2006 winning team. They had so many superstars in that squad and in various positions too. They had defensive discipline (well they were Italian after all), they had great passing midfielders and sublime forwards who could unlock the sternest of defences. They also had a squad with such a […]

I was watching a TV show on Sky Sports just before the last Old Firm game and former stars Barry Ferguson, Neil Lennon, Kris Boyd and Kris Commons were discussing the fixture.

Had Jack Wilshere left Arsenal at the end of last season on a Bosman, many wouldn’t have batted an eyelid. A lot might have mourned the lost potential but they’d have probably thought it was the best thing for all concerned given the midfielder’s injury issues. But fate decided it would be this summer and […]

Morning reports have suggested that Arsenal may look to appoint Brendan Rodgers as their new manager, if the Gunners decided to call time on legendary boss Arsene Wenger’s tenure at the club. Arsenal collapsed in the League Cup final against Manchester City this past Sunday and are struggling in the race to finish in the Premier […]

I think quite a few at Manchester United had a point to prove against Chelsea last weekend; Nemanja Matic, Paul Pogba and Jose Mourinho to name a few and I believe they were all happy with the valuable win. Striker Romelu Lukaku possibly had the biggest issues to overcome as some believed he still had […]

This Sunday, Manchester United welcome Premier League champions Chelsea to Old Trafford as both sides look to cement their places in the top flight’s Champions League places. A lot of the media will concentrate on the friction between the two managers. Former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is now United’s gaffer and he hasn’t been slow […]
