Jerome Boateng Transfer To The Emirates Becomes A Doubt


Arsenal are in the market for some new defensive reinforcement and have been linked with moves for RB Leipzig star Dayot Upamecano and Bayern Munich centre-back Jerome Boateng.

According to reports, the Gunners' board is slightly concerned with Mikel Arteta's alleged top transfer target, Jerome Boateng.

Arsenal's defence has been shaky for the past few seasons, and Arteta has identified it as the area he wants to strengthen.

RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano has been linked with a transfer to north London in recent months, but would cost the cash-strapped Gunners a bomb.

Bayern Munich star Boateng is the other centre-back on Arsenal's radar and would be a considerably cheaper option.

Reports in Germany claim the Bundesliga giants could offload the defender for free as long as his wages are paid in full.

Boateng earns around £200,000-a-week at Bayern Munich, which is immediately problematic for Arsenal as it would made the German the club's joint second-best paid player behind Mesut Ozil.

Secondly, according to Goal, the Arsenal board are reportedly concerned over the defender's lack of playing time this season and how this has impacted his fitness.

The Gunners need a player to come in and hit the ground running this January, especially if they are breaking the bank to get him to the club.

And it seems the Arsenal hierarchy will only splash the cash if they're convinced it will be a worthwhile investment

Mauricio Pochettino fired at Tottenham Hotspur

During the international break, Mauricio Pochettino has been axed as Tottenham Hotspur manager.

The club sits 14th in the Premier League table, without a win in its last five league games.

“We were extremely reluctant to make this change and it is not a decision the Board has taken lightly, nor in haste,” the club said in its official statement.

Regrettably domestic results at the end of last season and beginning of this season have been extremely disappointing.

“It falls to the Board to make the difficult decisions – this one made more so given the many memorable moments we have had with Mauricio and his coaching staff – but we do so in the Club’s best interests. 

Mauricio and his coaching staff will always be part of our history. I have the utmost admiration for the manner in which he dealt with the difficult times away from a home ground whilst we built the new stadium and for the warmth and positivity he brought to us. 

I should like to thank him and his coaching staff for all they have contributed. They will always be welcome here. We have a talented squad. We need to re-energize and look to deliver a positive season for our supporters.”

Reports had suggested over the past few days that his position was becoming more and more untenable, but there was no indication that a change was this imminent. The Telegraph reported Monday look Daniel Levy during the international break about the direction and they suggested the game against West Ham United this weekend could be “make or break” for the Argentine.

Pochettino had been with the club since joining in 2014. They reached the Champions League final last season, losing to Liverpool.

Supercomputer Predicts Final Premier League Table For 2019-20 Season

Supercomputer has predicted how Premier League table for 2019-20 season will finally be.

We are two months into the 2019-20 Premier League season and already, the competition has seen a fair share of twists and turns.

Liverpool FC and the Citizens are at the top of the table right now, with the Reds at the top.

While we are almost certain that Liverpool and City will continue with their dormancy at the top of the table, we are yet to say with certainty as to who will take home the coveted trophy at the end of the season.

Given the nature of the competition, a few other teams are also likely to be in contention for the title of Premier League Champions for 2019-20.

We are also unsure as to how and where the other teams will finish their ongoing campaign.

That being said, TalkSport has claimed that their supercomputer already knows how the final league table will look like, at the end of this season.

Let's have a look on what the super-computer predicted:

20. Newcastle United (relegated)
19. Brighton and Hove Albion (relegated)
18. Watford (relegated)
17. Aston Villa
16. Norwich City
15. Crystal Palace
14. Sheffield United
13. Burnley
12. Wolverhampton Wanderers
11. Southampton
10. Bournemouth
9. Everton
8. West Ham United
7. Leicester City
6. Manchester United
5. Arsenal (Europa League qualification)
4. Chelsea (Champions League qualification)
3. Tottenham Hotspur (Champions League qualification)
2. Manchester City (Champions League qualification)
1. Liverpool (Premier League champions, Champions League qualification)

English Premier League Golden Boot Has GoneTo The Wire



The Premier League hotshots look like finishing the season level on goals scored - but what happens to the Golden Boot in that situation?


Unlike the World Cup where the Golden Boot is decided by assists if a number of scorers are level, the Premier League instead shares it between the players.

It happened previously when Chris Sutton, Michael Owen and Dion Dublin shared it in 1997-98 and and then again in 1998-99 when Jimmy Floyd-Hasselbaink, Michael Owen and Dwight Yorke shared the spoils.

This year it looks like we will have three players - Salah, Mane and Aubameyang on 22 goals.

McDonald Extends Fulham Contract



Fulham's encouraging preparation for their return to Premier League has continued with a contract renewal for midfielder Kevin McDonald.


The Scottish international has inked a new two-year deal that takes him through to the end of the 2019-20 season, with an option to extend for a further year.

He was signed from Wolves two years ago, the 29-year-old McDonald has accrued 90 league appearances for the London club, scoring thrice as they won the Championship play-offs last term.

His commitment caps a positive week for Fulham following the arrivals of goalkeeper Fabri and Germany forward Andre Schurrle.

"Obviously I'm delighted," McDonald told the club's official website. "I feel settled here, it's a great place to play, it's got everything needed for a Premier League club, and thankfully that's what we are.

"Hopefully we can kick on this season, it's been a great couple of years and - having extended my contract - I couldn’t be happier."

McDonald's maiden Scotland cap came in a 1-0 friendly loss to Costa Rica in March.

Calum Chambers Extends Arsenal Contract



Arsenal manager Unai Emery revealed Calum Chambers would be part of his plans in 2018-19 after the defender signed a new long-term contract at the club.


Chambers joined Arsenal in 2014 and has since made 83 appearances, as well as having a successful loan spell at Middlesbrough in 2016-17 and picking up three England caps.

He made 24 appearances last season as Arsenal finished sixth in the Premier League and reached the Europa League semi-finals.

Emery told the club's official website: "I'm delighted Calum has extended his stay with us.

"He played an important role last season and will be part of my plans this season."

Divock Origi To Prove Worth at Liverpool After Wolfsburg Loan Spell



On loan Liverpool star Divock Origi believes he has returned to Liverpool as a more experience and mature player following his loan spell i Germany at Wolfsburg.


The striker was part of Belgium’s squad at the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, scoring the winner for his country in the 1-0 triumph over Russia in the group stage, but failed to make the cut for this year’s tournament following an indifferent campaign in Germany.

Origi netted six Bundesliga goals and also scored in the two-legged relegation play-off victory over Holstein Kiel, helping Wolfsburg maintain their top-flight status.

While failing to find his best form during the 2017-18 season, Origi insists his temporary stint overseas has made him a more complete frontman as he aims to prove his worth at Anfield.

"It was a learning season for me," Origi told Liverpool’s official website. "It was a bit of a change of scenario. I learned a lot mentally and grew a lot. I think I've come back more mature.

"As a team, we had a difficult season, but we fought until the end and managed to stay in the league.

"I am very excited for the new season. I just have to keep my focus on enjoying myself on the pitch and giving everything.

"The next few weeks will show. The feet do the talking on the pitch, so we will see how it goes. I am positive."

Liverpool's campaign ended in frustration, as their Champions League hopes were snuffed out by Real Madrid at the final hurdle, but Origi is confident Jurgen Klopp's side will continue to make progress in 2018-19.

"Every year since I have been here, we have progressed so much. Even now, I have come back and can see we've progressed even more," the 23-year-old added.

"It was a great season with a difficult end, but it will make us stronger. We've always come back from setbacks, so I am very excited to see what is going to happen in this new season."
