Football is a cruel world. Footballers are crueller. Adnan Januzaj was a walking example of the need for a thick skin in this business as he was snubbed from being brought on as a late substitute at Carrow Road – not once, but twice. Primed to enter the action with 20 minutes left to play, […]

Jose Aldo is supposed to be better than this. The legend of Jose Aldo is supposed to be better than this. The decade unbeaten Jose Aldo is supposed to be better than this. The inspiration, the trailblazer, the immortal Jose Aldo is better than this. Somewhere along the way, he lost himself. Somewhere in those generation-defining 13 […]

Sign him up. The summer is in sight and the transfer rumours are swirling again. And they’re setting off in a blaze with Robert Lewandowski’s comments about the possibility of playing in England. The 27-year-old is one of the hottest pieces of property in the world and he was bound to have been linked with […]

#FreeMcGregor. That’s actually a thing. Conor McGregor retired. And then he didn’t retire. The MMA world went into meltdown. And then it went into more meltdown. Whatever theory you have behind the Dubliner’s decision, whatever you read into his statement, The Notorious has been pulled from UFC 200 and combat sports Conor McGregor fans are […]

No more weight of the world on their shoulders. Gabriel Agbonlahor is continuing to lead by example. The Aston Villa man, who was named club captain at the start of the season, has hit the headlines again – and, as you probably guessed, they’re not for any footballing feats. The attacker – who used to […]

As Saturdays go, Lewis Kinsella’s probably wasn’t up there with his best. The 21-year-old Aston Villa defender saw his club drop out of the Premier League for the first time as their defeat at Old Trafford confirmed what Joleon Lescott was hoping to have confirmed long ago. Joleon Lescott putting his foot in his mouth? […]

The British government has ordered a probe into Premier League doping claims whilst the clubs have come out to deny the allegations. Each of Leicester, Chelsea, and Arsenal have issued statements over the ‘false’ story that named them in the scandal. The Sunday Times ran a report alleging that a London-based doctor prescribed performance-enhancing drugs to Premier […]

Well, we hope this is an April Fools’ joke anyway. Southampton have unveiled the new club crest to come into effect from the 2016/17 season and beyond and it is definitely different, that’s for sure. The Saints are moving with the times and that old football at the top of their classic badge has been […]

Would you give up some money to help out a struggling former employer? Maybe you’d throw in a few quid, but for former Leicester City striker Emile Heskey, the stakes were a little higher. The former England international apparently donated £100,000 to his old club long before the Foxes’ unprecedented run to the summit of English football began. The […]

Thank God. Fernando Alonso walked away unscathed from a horrific crash in the Australian Grand Prix on Saturday. The Spaniard’s car flipped twice and went airborne before slamming into the wall, disintegrating en route. Somehow though, he got out and walked away and proclaimed afterwards to Network Ten, “I’m happy to be here. It was […]

Well the season’s over anyway – may as well relax… Only joking, it’s not over just yet. Arsenal’s 2-0 win at Everton on Saturday gave them new hope in their Premier League challenge. Again. Write them off at your peril. The Gunners hit cruise control against Roberto Martinez’s side – who were booed off afterwards – and […]

Fair play to him. It would’ve been easy for Marouane Fellaini to ignore all the criticism and hide from his detractors. But he has come out, stood up tall and stared them down, one-by-one. With an…interesting explanation. The Man United midfielder has been criticised on more than one occasion for the regularly with which his elbows […]

A vision in green. As if it wasn’t enough that Ireland are going to the Euros, with Jon Walters and Wes Hoolahan to lead them there, they can now boast this fine outfit. Umbro have released the brand new home jersey for Euro 2016 and they have not disappointed. With a completely different collar, a white trim […]

He’s a good player. Fresh from setting Arsenal on their usual February decline, Messi is back in Spain doing what he does to most teams: destroying them. Barcelona beat Rayo Vallecano 5-1 on Thursday night away from home to stretch their lead at the top of La Liga to eight points. And, whilst you might […]

Priorities. It was a huge night in the league. Spurs blew their chance of going top. Arsenal blew their chance of catching Spurs. Man City blew their chance of catching Arsenal. Leicester all the while were just p*ssing themselves laughing as a 2-2 home draw with West Brom on Tuesday night transpired to be an […]

Stop teasing us. Just one look, that’s all Republic of Ireland fans were allowed on Wednesday morning when Umbro revealed just a peek of the country’s Euro 2016 jersey. We’ve already been told that this is the greatest kit we’ve never seen (it can’t be much worse than Nike’s rumoured England effort)… And there’s already an option […]

Sunday was a bad day for the alpha male buried away somewhere deep inside Adam Lallana. He tried squaring up to Yaya Toure, it didn’t end too well. https://twitter.com/UberFootbalI/status/704018848467591168 Then he missed the penalty that teed up the winning spot kick for his arch nemesis. Just before hand, he had the chance to strut his stuff. […]

Gigi Buffon, the legend that is, has revealed he was close to plying his trade in the Premier League. Not once, not twice, but thrice. The Italian stopper – one of the greatest of all time, if not the greatest – revealed he was approached on three different occasions by three English rivals for his signature. […]
