Chuba Akpom Waves Goodbye To English Football
As the season gets closer and closer with the pre-season fading into the distance, more players are starting to make transfers elsewhere around Europe. Whilst the major leagues are certainly much more publicised when it comes to players coming and going, there are often plenty of moves that happen that people don’t even realise have happened. That’s the nature of any given transfer window, especially in the summer.
One such move that quietly went through in the last few days is the departure of Chuba Akpom from Arsenal,

Finding Celtic’s Priority
The Scottish Premier League is set to kick off once again this weekend, with Celtic, once again, being viewed as the clear favourites to take home the title – and is anyone really all too surprised by that? They play with a ruthless efficiency that isn’t seen throughout the rest of Scottish football, and in Brendan Rodgers, they’ve got a hungry young manager who has been proven to find success wherever he’s gone, which is something that some fans continue to dispute.
Can Alphonso Davies Be A Superstar?
As we look ahead to the start of the Championship season this weekend and the Premier League season next, it’s easy to forget that many of the top European leagues don’t actually kick off for another few weeks. Many of the clubs that millions upon millions of fans follow from around the globe are waiting to see some of the world’s best spring into action, and with that in mind, we thought it’d be best to round-up some of the most notable recent transfers from the Bundesliga over in Germany.
Can Swansea Bounce Back From Relegation?
The new Championship season is just a few hours away from kicking off, and whilst the World Cup has been a fun distraction, we’ve certainly missed the feeling of watching domestic football on a week to week basis. There’s just something different about the style of play, the fanbases and the overall atmosphere of these games that make things feel special.
As we look ahead to the start of yet another new campaign,

Higuain Closes In On AC Milan Move
Whilst many fans are focusing their attention on what’s happening in the English Premier League there’s also been substantial new developments over in Italy, too. Serie A is widely considered to be one of the ‘elite’ top divisions in European football, and now, they’ve helped their claim of being the number one overall with the recent transfer of Cristiano Ronaldo from Real Madrid to Juventus.
It was a move that came out of nowhere in many ways,
Burnley Attempt To Make History
Football is a game of slim margins, and nobody knows that better than sides who compete in Britain – and more specifically, England and Scotland. Whilst certain other leagues around the world can be quite unpredictable, nothing can quite compare to the tension and last minute drama associated with things over here. So then, when you consider that Burnley and Aberdeen couldn’t be separated in the first leg of their UEFA Europa League tie, it makes you wonder what on earth is going to go down tonight when they square off yet again.
Can Arsenal Keep Their Momentum Going?
It’s easy to get caught up in the excitement surrounding Arsenal Football Club right now, and if you’re a supporter, then we don’t blame you. The Gunners have spent so long in the shadows over the last few years under the tutelage of Arsene Wenger, but it finally seems as if they’re ready to burst into life with Unai Emery bringing a whole new style to the club. Some thought that this would be a season of rebuilding and others felt a touch more confident,
Paul Pogba Linked With Barcelona Switch
The summer transfer window has produced some major moments in the last few years with big-time players swapping to other clubs around Europe and the world, and the 2018 summer window has been no different. With the main story being Cristiano Ronaldo’s shock move from Real Madrid to Juventus you’d think that everything else would be redundant – but you’d be wrong.
There are several stories that have broken in the last few days that are both causes for concern and cause for excitement,

The Real Resurgence vs Jose’s Horror Show
The pre-season period is finally starting to wind down, and that means that domestic football is right around the corner once again. Before that, though, the final series of International Champions Cup matches need to take place, with one of the biggest being set to go down tonight – Real Madrid vs Manchester United. It’s a rivalry as old as time with both of these clubs being viewed as the two biggest in world football,

Tottenham Have Team Chemistry to Win in Pre-Season
Tottenham take on AC Milan as their pre-season schedule continues and they will be hoping to pick up a win from this one.
Pochettino’s Master Plan?
We recently spoke about the ins and outs of what we think is going to happen with Tottenham Hotspur in the lead-up to the new domestic season, and now, we’ve got a little bit more to work with after their recent game against Barcelona. Whilst it clearly took them a while to get going they certainly resembled a team who were more than willing to get their head down and get stuck into the game when they needed to the most,
PSG Look To Bounce Back Against Atletico Madrid
Pre-season friendlies, as we’ve discussed at length in the last few weeks, often don’t hold much value when it comes to what you want to accomplish throughout the course of your domestic season. You could even argue that this is the case even more so than usual given the recent success of the World Cup, because this tends to be the ‘dull period between one international tournament ending and another big season of European football beginning (disclaimer: yes,
