After kicking off the new premier league season on a fly, Manchester United were only able to share points with Stoke City last weekend with a 2-2 draw. The Old Trafford club were, however, able to return back to winning ways by winning Basel 3-0 in the Champions League on Tuesday night. They will now be clashing with Everton in their next premier league game and should rightly be considered favourites to emerge victors after full-time to get all three points from the game. After winning their opening two games of the new term, Everton have been quite average despite splashing the cash to bring in new players during the summer transfer window. The Goodison Park club have lost their last three matches in all competitions and have conceded no fewer than 8 … [Read more...]

Carlo Ancelotti linked with shock move to Arsenal
According to ESPN, Bayern Munich coach Carlo Ancelotti will consider a return to the English Premier League next summer, should the German Bundesliga team trigger a release clause in his three-year deal. Despite being regarded as one of the best tacticians in world football, the former Chelsea boss’ time at the Bundesliga club has been a rough one since replacing Spaniard Pep Guardiola last summer.
