When Phil Jones signed for Manchester United at the end of the 2010 - 2011 Premier league season, he was a young defensive midfielder who had proved extremely versatile in a highly impressive season in an otherwise unimpressive Blackburn team.

Michael Owen, remember him? The once great next hope of English football, from scoring an equaliser for Liverpool away at Wimbledon on the opening day of the 1997 season as a fresh-faced 17 year old, to doing away with footballing reputations and the logic of age as his 18 year old vibrancy tore an impressive

Losing Luis isn’t the end of the world for Manchester United, but rather a new beginning. Luis Nani has spent 5 years hugging the sideline and cutting inside to prove himself at Old Trafford, and boy can he do it well, but he hasn’t lived up to the potential everyone knows he has. Because of
You’ve been hearing from almost every Arsenal fan for the past week or so that loyalty ‘is dead’. But the truth is, we’re in a new age of football – Player power. The new Sky-sponsored Premier League has got as much to do with this supposed lack of loyalty in modern football as Jean-Marc Bosman’s

After Manchester City snatched the title from their neighbours in, quite literally, the last minute of the Premier League campaign, Manchester United are ready to do it all again and try to claim their 20th league title. The Reds travel to Goodison Park to open their account against Everton on Monday night. The last time
After the unquestionable snooze fest that was World Cup 2010, I thoroughly enjoyed Euro 2012. There was much more of an attacking intent from the teams involved, but one constant remained: Spain again emerged victorious, showing the importance of creation, movement and being able to keep possession. The Spanish method, it would appear, has resonated
