Quite Deluded Moyes & Zouma have it all wrong There appears to be something amiss with David Moyes and Kurt Zouma’s arithmetic because both seem to be under the impression that West Ham are on the cusp of qualifying for Europe. This baffling, delayed sense of urgency appears to have the squad fired up for a European push about a month later than they should have been. Zouma’s comment that the Hammers have “three cup finals” this season might explain the lack of fight or urgency in matches against Crystal Palace or Fulham—the squad clearly didn’t think those were significant…
Tottenham Hotspur star James Maddison took to social media on Friday evening to voice frustration with the side’s latest exploits after three back-to-back defeats. Manchester United, Newcastle United and Chelsea have closed the gap on Ange Postecoglou’s side with four matches left to play as the race for European football hots up. Spurs face Liverpool and Manchester City in their next three as the side looks for a change in fortunes. Tottenham Hotspur have conceded nine in their last three Premier League defeats, the 2-0 defeat to Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night following a 3-2 loss in the…
Leicester City boss Enzo Maresca has described guiding the club back to the Premier League at the first attempt as “the best feeling” after the Foxes celebrated their Championship title triumph. City fell to a 2-0 defeat to Blackburn Rovers on the final day of the 2023/24 season, but it remained a day of celebration at the King Power Stadium. The result meant Blackburn avoided relegation to League One and both teams celebrated at full-time. After the game, Leicester lifted the Championship trophy with Jamie Vardy, Marc Albrighton and Ricardo Pereira doing the honours in front of a packed stadium.…
So West Ham United seem all set to replace current manager David Moyes when the 2023/24 campaign ends. David Moyes fielded all sorts of questions during his pre-game press conference yesterday, but the one answer we all wanted to hear was whether he’s accepted the fact that West Ham will replace him this summer. Surprisingly, the 61-year-old Scot suggested that he still has the hunger needed to remain in charge of the Hammers. That’s all well and good, but I firmly believe the decision will be taken out of his hands this summer. A recent report claimed the Julen Lopetegui…
Tottenham will travel to Anfield this weekend with their backs against the wall after recent disappointments. Tottenham need a response at Anfield after recent setbacks but Liverpool need to send off legendary manager Jurgen Klopp with a massive performance in one of their last home games of the season. The Reds have dropped off after disappointing results against Everton and West Ham. Their chances of winning the league title have evaporated in the last few weeks, but they will look for a strong end befitting a great goodbye to a manager who has brought more joy and good memories than…
David Moyes looks set to be replaced at West Ham this summer. Former Everton chief executive Keith Wyness has claimed West Ham fans “will regret” pushing manager David Moyes out of the club as the appointment of a new boss appears to grow nearer. The former Everton and Manchester United boss is expected to walk away from the London Stadium this summer and can certainly leave with his head held high after guiding the club to their first piece of major silverware in 43 years. Moyes‘ contract is up for renewal at the end of the season but West Ham…
Kalvin Phillips’ West Ham United career may have come to an early end due to an injury, likely marking his final appearance for the Hammers. This development was reported by The Athletic, which has increasingly shown strong connections at the club. The 28-year-old England international, who joined on loan from Manchester City until the end of the season, is expected to sign for his former club Leeds United for a significantly reduced fee after a disappointing loan stint at the London Stadium. Phillips has made 10 appearances for David Moyes’ side, including eight in the Premier League, but is now…
Highlights of the Sky Bet Championship match between Leicester and Blackburn Rovers. Sammie Szmodics’ second-half double ensured Blackburn’s Championship survival following a 2-0 win at newly-crowned champions Leicester. The division’s top scorer Szmodics found the net just when Rovers’ survival hopes were in the balance as relegation rivals, and Blackburn manager John Eustace’s former club, Birmingham had just taken the lead against Norwich. That scenario meant if Leicester were to win the game, then Rovers would slide into League One. But, after 68 minutes, the ball broke kindly on the halfway line for Szmodics who raced clear as Leicester’s defenders…
N’Golo Kante and Riyad Mahrez may have moved on from the Foxes for big fees, but Danny Drinkwater’s departure shouldn’t be overlooked either. Looking at their 2013/14 promotion-winning squad, Jamie Vardy was signed from non-league outfit Fleetwood Town, Kasper Schmeichel arrived from Notts County, Anthony Knockaert was poached from French outfit Guingamp and Riyad Mahrez had come in during the January of 2014 from Le Havre. Both Knockaert and Mahrez were successful at the King Power Stadium – and it was clear that the Foxes had richly benefitted from the French market – with Claudio Ranieri then going on to…
Tottenham need to use the summer transfer window wisely to overcome present difficulties. Football, by nature, is fickle, with the shifting mood over at Tottenham Hotspur emblematic of the superabundance of feelings that can drift through the climate of a football club throughout a campaign. Battered and bruised after a wretched 2022/23 campaign that led to an eighth-place Premier League finish that meant no European endeavours this year – it also meant that Harry Kane, who had scored 30 goals top-flight goals, opted to move abroad to Bayern Munich. It also led to the shrewd appointment of Ange Postecoglou from…
