London, Aug 14 (Ians) Chelsea and Liverpool played to a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge in an intriguing Premier League opener.
With Mauricio Pochettino making his Chelsea managerial debut and new additions to their squad, the Blues started slowly. Liverpool asserted dominance early, with a rejuvenated Luis Diaz capitalising on Mohamed Salah’s precise cross from the right, reports Xinhua.
Chelsea gradually found their rhythm and equalized when Axel Disasi capitalized on questionable defending, netting a goal in the 37th minute. A potentially goal-bound effort from Ben Chilwell was later deemed offside. Both teams showed glimpses of brilliance, but their performances hinted at the need for more reinforcements before the transfer window closes.
While Brentford and Tottenham both missed key forwards, the teams showcased an exhilarating 2-2 draw, with all goals recorded in the first half. Tottenham’s new coach Ange Postecoglou watched his side go ahead in the 11th minute,...

London, May 5 (Ians) Manchester City have the chance to move four points clear at the top of the Premier League this weekend in what could be a decisive round of matches at both the top and bottom of the table.
Pep Guardiola’s side host Leeds United, who this week brought in Sam Allardyce to replace Javi Gracia as head coach, following a disastrous April which saw them lose five out of seven matches and concede 23 goals.
Allardyce’s first job is to stop the flood of goals, but that won’t be easy against a rival boasting Erling Haaland in attack. The only good news for Leeds is that City will have to keep one eye on next Tuesday’s Champions League visit to Real Madrid and Guardiola will be keen to keep his key players as sharp as possible.

London, May 1 (Ians) Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta believes that Chelsea will be “dangerous opponents” in Tuesday’s match despite sitting in the bottom half of the Premier League table.
Chelsea are currently in 12th place in the standings and have struggled to meet expectations this season while Arsenal are at the top of the league table at the moment but have not been at their best in recent weeks.
With a wealth of talent at Frank Lampard’s disposal and the excitement generated whenever the Gunners meet their London rivals, Arteta isn’t taking Chelsea lightly as the team aims to get back to winning ways.
“I don’t know what their approach will be. They are really dangerous because when you look at the individuals that they can put on that field, for sure they have huge threats so we need to be aware of that,” Arteta said in a pre-match press conference.

Manchester, April 27 (Ians) Pep Guardiola hailed the devastating connection between Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland after Manchester City’s pivotal 4-1 victory over Arsenal.

City goes into the match five points behind the league leaders but with two games in hand, and a repeat of their triumph at the Emirates Stadium earlier this campaign would leave them just two points behind their rivals.
Arsenal fought back from 2-0 and 3-1 down to take a point against Southampton on Friday but has conceded seven goals in three games. The bad news for coach Mikel Arteta is that defender William Saliba is unlikely to have recovered from his back injury to be able to play, while a hamstring problem will sideline City’s Nathan Ake.

Pires also believes legendary football manager Arsene Wenger is one of the finest managers in the world. “Oh, for me, Arsene is one of the best managers.

In a London derby, Arsenal were the dominant side throughout the game and could have won by a bigger margin in the end. The 1-0 result sees Arsenal move back to the top of the league with 34 points from 13 games.
Manager Mikel Arteta remains unbeaten in all of Arsenal’s Premier League visits to Stamford Bridge since he took the reins in December 2019. The Gunners entered this contest on the back of three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five games across competitions. They defeated Fc Zurich 1-0 in their last game, securing qualification to the Europa League round of 16.

London, Oct 8 (Ians) Southampton’s defenders will have to steel themselves later on Saturday for their visit to Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium, because although they know the threat waiting for them, nobody has been able to stop it so far.
Erling Haaland has scored a hat-trick in each of Man City’s last three home games and also netted twice in their Champions League win against Copenhagen in midweek and expect to add to that against a visiting Southampton that conceded 13 goals this season.
Pep Guardiola’s side have netted 29 goals in eight league matches (including six against Manchester United last weekend) and this looks like a match that is not going to end goalless, reports Xinhua. The weekend in the Premier League has plenty of other interesting matches with Arsenal’s home game against Liverpool the standout.

London, Sep 18 (Ians) Teenager Ethan Nwaneri became the youngest player in Premier League history as he came off the bench in Arsenal’s comfortable victory over Brentford, breaking the record previously held by midfielder Harvey Elliott.
The record was previously held by Liverpool teenager Elliott, who was 16 years and 30 days old when he came on for Fulham in 2019.
Young England underage international Nwaneri was introduced in the final moments and replaced goal scorer Fabio Vieira for Arsenal’s 3-0 win over Brentford.
Nwaneri has featured at Under-18 and Under-21 levels for Arsenal this season and the attacking midfielder earned a spot in Mikel Arteta’s squad with the likes of Martin Odegaard and Emile Smith-Rowe unavailable due to injury.
The schoolboy was promoted to first-team training this week having made his Under-21 debut at the beginning of September.

London, Sep 16 (Ians) Preparations for the funeral of Queen Elizabeth II on Monday mean that a shortage of police has led to the postponement of three Premier League matches scheduled for this weekend, with just seven matches to be played.
The games between Chelsea and Liverpool, Manchester United and Leeds United and Brighton and Crystal Palace have all been put off due to the lack of police, and while new Chelsea coach, Graham Potter will be grateful for more time to work with his squad and Brighton will be able to find a replacement for Potter, the postponements will only lead to further congest an already crowded fixture calendar.
Nottingham Forest and Fulham play a match between two recently promoted sides, with Forest still smarting at how they allowed Bournemouth to come back from 2-0 down to win 2-3 in the last game at the City Ground.

Casemiro is in line for his debut after signing from Real Madrid and will slot in ahead of the defense, while Harry Maguire will once again be watching from the subs bench — probably sitting close to Cristiano Ronaldo as Marcos Rashford leads the attack.
Southampton have improved in recent games, and United will have to be wary of their dangerman, Che Adams, who has netted four goals in the past week.

Exclusive: The next installment of Amazon Prime Video’s popular sports doc franchise All Or Nothing is set to be filmed at London-based soccer club Arsenal over the 2021-22 season, I can reveal.
The team reported back to training this week – minus those still on international duties such as England’s Bukayo Saka – and are being told about the series as this goes to press. I understand the deal is not 100% finalized but it is likely a formality at this stage.
The cameras will be arriving at Arsenal for a crunch season in the reign of manager Mikel Arteta, with the team coming off the back of a disappointing 2020-21, finishing eighth in the Premier League and exiting the Europa League in the semi-finals. The team did however close the year strongly and could look to pin hopes on Saka, one of the breakout stars of the English national team...

Milan, March 19 (Ians) Substitute Paul Pogba struck just minutes after his half-time introduction to give Manchester United a 1-0 win at AC Milan to progress 2-1 on aggregate to the last eight of the Europa League.
Midfielder Pogba, on his return from injury, fired in high at the near post in the 49th minute on Thursday to give United the honours in the battle between former European champions, Dpa reported.
United led the first leg at Old Trafford until being denied victory by an injury-time equalizer but made no mistake in the return despite a lethargic first half.
"Obviously, we're very happy we're through," United full back Luke Shaw told BT Sport. "I'll be honest, and the lads and staff would agree, we weren't good at all especially first half we were awful.
"Second half it always helps to have a world class player like Paul (Pogba) to make a difference and he did that.

Although Arsenal showed moments of good football, City always looked to have another gear as they continued to cruise towards the league title.
Manchester United remain second after a 3-1 win at home to Newcastle United, who are now firmly in a battle to avoid relegation.

Coronavirus does not discriminate.

The Luther star took to Twitter to announce that he tested positive for Covid-19 earlier this morning, and will now begin a period of self-isolation. Elba was quick to reassure fans that he feels Ok, and isn’t currently displaying any symptoms – the Who estimates that the incubation period for Covid-19 is anywhere between 2 and 14 days, during which time a person is said to be highly contagious.

Arsenal are set to move for Barcelona starlet Sergi Samper and will meet his £8.4 million buyout clause, according to Metro.
Mundo Deportivo reported that the midfielder could be Wenger’s second signing of the summer as he is a long way from breaking into Luis Enrique’s first team plans.
Players such as Cesc Fabregas, Jon Toral and Hector Bellerin have already made the move from Barcelona’s La Masia academy to North London.
Arsene Wenger has stated that he needs a potential successor to Mikel Arteta and after missing out on Arturo Vidal this week the 20-year-old could be a perfect fit.
Samper is seriously considering Arsenal’s offer, having grown frustrated playing for Barcelona’s B team but the Catalonia-based side would rather agree a loan deal.

4. Predicted Starting lineups
This is almost certainly how Arsenal will lineup for the clash, with the team practically picking itself. Their back four and goalkeeper are sure starters due to injuries to January signing Gabriel, who has been ruled out of the clash with a hamstring injury and Mathieu Debuchy, who is still on the road to recovery from a shoulder injury. Although it is doubtful they will start ahead of David Ospina and Kieran Gibbs, Wojciech Szczesny and Nacho Monreal face late fitness tests and could make the Arsenal bench.
Mathieu Flamini, Jack Wilshere, Mikel Arteta and Abou Diaby are all expected to miss out due to injury meaning Arsene Wenger’s only decision in midfield is whether to include Tomas Rosicky or not but it is more likely he will opt for the midfield threesome of Coquelin, Ramsey and Cazorla.
Louis Van Gaal’s selection is more of a mystery,...
