Conte makes champion Chelsea a happy family again
- May 13, 2017
Antonio Conte was fielding a question in his post-match news conference when David Luiz and Diego Costa appeared from out of nowhere, barged past a couple of reporters and dragged their manager out of his chair and out of the room. "The club was desirous to erase the memory of the preceding season, its worst in recent times where it finished an abysmal 10th position on the league standings". (more...)

Cesc Fabregas: Chelsea must wrap up EPL title on Friday
- May 13, 2017
Three more points would put Chelsea out of reach of Tottenham, who face sixth-placed Manchester United on Sunday. We have the possibility to do this on Friday against West Brom, but for sure it won't be easy because West Brom are a really good, physical team so we must pay attention. (more...)

Liverpool fans feeling the heat after monster Man City win
- May 13, 2017
Allardyce said: "Let's bounce back. But we have two more games at home and one more game to play than Liverpool". "That is the gap we have to improve and David is one of them", the City boss added. "Maybe they dribble well, maybe badly, a good cross but they don't lose the ball". There were times when City were magnificent, and not just Silva. (more...)

Daniel Sturridge ready for Liverpool starting spot, says Jurgen Klopp
- May 13, 2017
Meanwhile, Liverpool have lost just one of their last 10 Premier League games, but a goalless draw with Southampton last weekend dented their European hopes. "Everything is still in our hands", Klopp told British media. For all of us, it was unlucky that, at important moments, he was not available. West Ham are unbeaten in the last five meetings against the Merseysides and the Croatian tactician is expecting another brilliant performance from his players in-front of a packed home crowd.

Sterling claims he deliberately left controversial Silva strike
- May 13, 2017
City's second came seven minutes later, Sane's quick feet taking him into the box where he was taken out in comprehensive fashion by Yohan Benalouane . The second half became an increasingly physical contest, after Albrighton was caught by Fernandinho's forearm as they chased a loose ball down the touchline. (more...)

Shkodran Mustafi remains hopeful over Arsenal's top-four chances
- May 13, 2017
But it remains to be seen if the Gunners can overturn a poor run which saw them lose six of 11 league games. Where can I watch Stoke vs Arsenal? While every club in the top flight is set to play their final league game on the second last Sunday of May, there is a possibility that Liverpool and Arsenal may have to play each other again.

Pochettino, Son and Pedro land Premier League awards
- May 13, 2017
And Pochettino admits that while he needs to strengthen his squad, and will purchase players during close-season, Spurs will not be able to match their rivals in the transfer market. My goal was to score 10 goals but now there are three games more and I just wanted to keep scoring more goals, more assists and make more points. Tottenham racked up six successive wins in 29 days, scoring 16 goals and conceding just once, before seeing their mini-streak halted by a 1-0 defeat against West ... (more...)

Oilers take command of series with another win in Anaheim
- May 13, 2017
Like a year ago the Ducks may have to sit John Gibson if they are going to win, but after riding with him in their 1st round sweep of the Calgary Flames it's time for the Ducks to play better in front of him. The Oilers were not just headed home to a city on fire, they were returning to an arena where they've gone 11-1 in their last 12 games. He also picked up shutouts in the Oilers' first two wins over San Jose in the opening round, jump-starting their postseason run. (more...)

Paul Merson predicts West Ham v Liverpool
- May 13, 2017
A trip to West Ham, a team Liverpool have not beaten in their last five meetings and who effectively ended Tottenham's title challenge a week ago, poses another challenge for them. Bilic is facing a selection headache with captain Mark Noble, midfielder Cheikhou Kouyate and strikers Andy Carroll and Diafra Sakho all missing due to their respective injuries. (more...)

Conte aims for double after EPL title win
- May 13, 2017
I think we've deserved it, we've worked hard. Conte felt Eden Hazard and Pedro looked lethargic and wanted to inject some more life into his attack in the second half and felt vindicated with Batshuayi's victor. "I am happy. Very happy". Conte's substitutions made the difference, especially Batshuayi, coming on for Pedro , and netting just his second league goal of the season that clinched the title. (more...)

Middlesbrough 1 Southampton 2: Rodriguez and Redmond end winless run
- May 13, 2017
I feel responsibility for what has happened and I will take that because that's how I am. After failing to win their previous five Premier League matches, Southampton got back on track with victory over Middlesbrough. Goalkeeper Victor Valdes (ribs), defender Daniel Ayala (ankle) and midfielder Gaston Ramirez (groin) remain doubts and are unlikely to feature. So between defeats from Arsenal 0-2 in the last round and 4-2 from Chelsea on April 25, Southampton played a draw with Hull City and ... (more...)

Conte: Losing to Arsenal pivotal to Chelsea title chase
- May 13, 2017
You don't need to be a fly on the wall at Cobham to see this, it's clearly evident just from watching any of his teams play - they are very well-drilled. Batshuayi was an unlikely hero as the £33m striker stepped off the bench and scored only his second Premier League goal and Conte admitted it has been a tough time for the Belgium striker. (more...)

Louis Oosthuizen and Kyle Stanley Take Lead into Weekend at Players Championship
- May 13, 2017
Jordan Spieth failed to make the cut. Neither Stanley nor Oosthuizen was counting on an easy ride the next two days in spite of the lead. A few times, maybe take the bogey. Johnson needed 31 and 29 putts, respectively, in the first two rounds. They were at 9-under 135, two shots ahead of J.B. Holmes, who fell out of a tie with bogeys on his last two holes for a 69.

Miocic insisted that he wasn't going to lose. Though, I'm sure Junior dos Santos and Jessica Andrade will have something to say about that. I was just working on timing, working on conditioning, working on techniques that are new to me, getting old techniques better and just keep working. (more...)
