Arsene Wenger and Arsenal sent a club scout to watch France international star Thomas Lemar in AS Monaco’s clash against Besiktas, according to reports emanating from France. Mercato365.com report that Arsenal are still after the winger, and were closely watching him during Wednesday night’s UEFA Champions League clash. If the reports are right, it looks like Arsene Wenger’s comments denying a new offer for the player might be an attempt to manage the expectations of fans. Seem fans are expecting Lemar to join in the next couple of transfer windows, so it’s probably a smart idea not to fuel that transfer speculation before any deal is agreed with either club. Whichever way, Thomas Lemar didn’t do his valuation many favours against Besiktas last week, as he … [Read more...]
Chelsea manager could be fired if his team loses to Manchester United on Sunday – Report
There are increasing fears at Stamford Bridge that Italian manager Antonio Conte could be handed the sack letter at Chelsea if they lose to Premier League rivals Manchester United on Sunday afternoon.

The reigning Premier League champions go into the Manchester United fixture off the back of a 3-0 loss away at Rome to AS Roma and should another humiliating performance follow, the club hierarchy could take action on the former Italy Head Coach’s position.

The change of position did backfired and the Blues fell to a disappointing loss against the Italia Capital club, which now leaves Conte’s men second in their UEFA Champions League group.

Conte: This Is Why Matic Will Ignore Me On Sunday
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is having a feeling that former blues midfielder Nemanja Matic will not be sentimental towards him or his former teammates when they clash with the red devils on Sunday. When Chelsea hosted Manchester United last season at Stamford Bridge, some Chelsea fans booed former manager Jose Mourinho for reasons best known to them, and Serbian midfielder Nemanja Matic could face something similar to that when he play against his former club for the first time since he joined United this summer. But his former manager at Chelsea believes Matic will only see him and his former Chelsea teammates as just enemies and 'only opponents'. "The most important [thing] is to play for your place [and] for your club [and] for your fans." Conte … [Read more...]

With Spain international David De Gea staying in-between the sticks, we expect the Portuguese boss to … [Read more...]
Photos: Injured Star Back With Teammates Ahead Of Chelsea Vs Man United
Man United players arrived for a late afternoon training session yesterday ahead of their next premier league game at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

And for club supporters, it will be something exciting to see that Frenchman Paul Pogba was among the stars driving in for the training session at Carrington. Last season when Chelsea host Manchester United at Stamford Bridge, the West London club thrashed the visitors 4-0 to humiliate former manager Jose Mourinho. When they met again at Stamford Bridge some days after in the FA Cup, Chelsea still emerged 1-0 victors, sending the red devils … [Read more...]
Alexis Sanchez closing in on January move as he shows support for club he’s joining next
Arsenal star Alexis Sanchez has shown his support for Sergio Aguero, with his recent social media post. The report surrounding the future of Sanchez was one of huge talking points of the summer, with all of Chelsea, Bayern Munich, PSG, Manchester United and Manchester City having shown interest in the 28-year-old. A summer deadline day transfer to the Etihad Stadium to join up with former coach Pep Guardiola failed to materialize, mainly because of Arsenal’s inability to sign Monaco forward Thomas Lemar. As a result, Alexis Sanchez was left with no choice but to remain at Arsenal, though it is still suggested that the South American will depart the Emirates Stadium, either in the New Year for a reduced fee or for nothing in the summer when his contract … [Read more...]
Man United Sure Of Signing One Of These Superstars To Replace Playmaker
Many players have been linked with Manchester United in recent times, but these two are regularly in the news - Antoine Griezmann and Mesut Ozil. The Atletico Madrid player almost joined those at Old Trafford in the summer following his links with Man United all through the transfer window. But considering Atletico's transfer ban that hinders them from registering new players until January, the Frenchman decided to stay back at Madrid, and even signed a new contract with the La Liga club meant to extend his stay at the club. And in the past few weeks, Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has been continuously linked with a move to Old Trafford as his current contract with the North London club will expire at the end of this season. There are speculations that … [Read more...]

Arsenal heavily linked with a move for Filip Benkovic
Arsenal’s interest have been drawn to the availability of Dinamo Zagreb’s youngster Filip Benkovic ahead of the January transfer window. As per report from the Mirror, the Gunners are keenly interested in the 20-year-old who himself has been linked with a move to one of the top four leagues in Europe. It is reported that Arsenal are prepared to challenge arch rivals Tottenham and Chelsea for the defender despite having not had enough top flight experience under his belt. The lad has recorded 22 appearances for Zagreb in the last two seasons but seem to have convinced the world that he could cut the mustard on the big scenes. The Arsenal’s defence is fast aging, with the likes of Per Mertesacker and Laurent Koscielny at the odd side of 30. Hence the need to … [Read more...]
Shocking! Chelsea star Praise opposition player; fans and Coach won’t like his comment
Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has refused to comment on Nemanja Matic’s move to Old Trafford from Stamford Bridge this summer.

Arsenal manager speaks on January transfer move for 22-year-old attacker
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has refused to speak on the club's possible interest in Manchester City and England forward Raheem Sterling according to the dailystar. Arsenal were strongly linked with a swoop to sign the 22-year-old in the summer but a deal failed to be completed despite his representative hinting the pacey attacker would be open to a transfer. Raheem Sterling’s prospective transfer to the Emirates looked to hinge on Chilean Alexis Sanchez sealing a controversial move to the Eastlands club from the North London club in the most-recent summer transfer window. Alexis Sanchez failed to complete his move to the Etihad before deadline day but could still seal a move to City having entered the last 12 months of his Arsenal contract. Indeed, the … [Read more...]

Reigning Premier League champions, Chelsea have turned down the opportunity to secure the services of Portuguese Superstar midfielder Andre Gomes.

Jose Mourinho, Man City, Chelsea, Arsenal, And The Premier League Pressure
If not for a late strike from Anthony Martial at Old Trafford, Manchester United would have shared points with Tottenham Hotspur the same way they did with Liverpool the previous weekend. The club's boss Jose Mourinho is not happy with criticism of his style of play after he was accused of parking the bus against Jurgen Klopp's side at Anfield in October. And even though Man United played better against Spurs last weekend, anything but a win would have increased the pressure on Mourinho. And obviously pleased with the win, the Portuguese manager 'shushed' his critics after full-time. The win against an in-form Tottenham Hotspur seems to have strengthened Mourinho's resolve in regards to how his team should line up against other big boys in the premier … [Read more...]
