Well, we thought we'd never get here but here we are. The Premier League is drawing to a close. The trophy has been handed out, last place has been decided but there's still a little left to play for on the final day. This season has seen many an emerging young player make their mark in style but the category that continues to quietly deliver is that of the over 30's. So, let's give the golden oldies the credit they deserve by naming our over 30's Premier League XI of the season. 1. Kasper...

News Chelsea's quest for Champions League football comes down to the final day of the season as Frank Lampard's side host Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday afternoon. The Blues can guarantee qualification for Europe's elite competition with a point at Stamford Bridge, with the final spot going to one of Manchester United and Leicester City, who meet at the same time.

Manager Mikel Arteta has previously admitted he is desperate to see Aubameyang sign a new deal and he is optimistic about the Gunners' chances of being able to convince him that remaining at the club would not be a waste of his career. Contract talks are thought to be progressing well According to The Telegraph, talks have gone so well that Arsenal are now...

Barcelona defender Samuel Umtiti is expected to depart Camp Nou this summer, with Serie A hinted as his next challenge. Recurring knee issues somewhat thwarted Umtiti's 2019/20 campaign as he made a mere 13 La Liga appearances, while the Frenchman made just one start following Spanish football's restart last month. Umtiti endured a tough afternoon in his sole start since the restart at Celta Vigo With Barcelona not exactly keen to keep a highly-paid, third-choice centre half on their books,...

Tottenham Hotspur are optimistic about their chances of signing Southampton midfielder Pierre-Emile Højbjerg, despite warning the Saints that they are not prepared to match Everton's bid for the Dane. Southampton had been holding out for £35m, but Carlo Ancelotti's side have had a £25m bid for Højbjerg accepted, with Spurs' own offer sitting at closer to the £15m mark. Everton have already had a bid accepted for Hojbjerg On paper, it's not looking good for Spurs, but The Guardian state that...

Manchester United captain Harry Maguire has revealed that midfielder Paul Pogba apologised to the rest of his teammates for giving away a penalty in Wednesday's 1-1 draw with West Ham. Pogba raised his arms towards his face to stop himself from being hit by an incoming shot, but the ball ricocheted off his hand and forced the referee to award a penalty, from which Michail Antonio stepped up to leave United facing a final-day playoff against Leicester City to seal Champions League football....

Liverpool's 30-year wait to lift the Premier League title finally came to an end on Wednesday as Jürgen Klopp's side took to the Kop to raise the famous trophy. After an exciting 5-3 win over Chelsea earlier in the night, the stage was set for the historic moment for Liverpool. Fireworks were set off outside Anfield even before the game had finished and the party is likely to continue for a little while yet. Here's how some of the key figures in the title triumph reacted. They may not be...

Chelsea manager Frank Lampard aimed a dig at some of Liverpool's backroom staff in the aftermath of his side's 5-3 defeat to the Reds on Wednesday, warning them not to be 'too arrogant' about their Premier League title triumph. Jürgen Klopp's side got their hands on the trophy after the game, and while that will dominate the headlines, the match also featured a fiery confrontation between the two managers after Liverpool scored their second, with Lampard looking particularly frustrated towards...

Jurgen Klopp has told Liverpool fans to be ready for a celebration once coronavirus restrictions are eased, after the club lifted the Premier League title on Wednesday. The Reds rounded off their home campaign at Anfield with a 5-3 victory over Chelsea, with their title win confirmed since June. The manager told Sky Sports, as quoted by the Mirror: "What can I say? If you don't see that we do it for you I can't help you, really. Same, boss ??#LFCchampions pic.twitter.com/L5aM7eA1JF — Liverpool...

As a set of supporters of certain teams within the parameters of one collective sport, we do love criticising. Whether that is in reference to our own clubs or those of others, it's almost impossible not to pick holes and point fingers at others. It's practically in our nature. Have Arsenal been woeful on course to their worst top flight finish in 25 years? You bet. Has Chelsea's defence been very poor despite them hovering around the top four place for most of the season? Indeed, that too....

So, a nice solid win for Liverpool against Chelsea was all that was needed in the penultimate game of the season for Jurgen Klopp's side. But thankfully for the viewers - unless you were caught up in Wednesday's Championship drama, which was also excellent - the two sides put on an entertaining spectacle, full of awesome goals and daft defensive play. There was also some trophy lofting to be seen, if you hadn't heard. That was eventful ?#LIVCHE pic.twitter.com/0vXEFeKjRs — Premier League...

ions Liverpool ensured their Premier League title-lifting celebrations came off the back of a victory, as a barmy 5-3 win over Chelsea saw the visitors' hopes of elite European qualification suffer a potentially crucial blow. The deadlock was broken in mesmerising fashion, with Naby Keita unleashing a rocket that flew beyond Kepa Arrizabalaga off the underside of the bar. Not to be outdone by his teammate, Trent Alexander-Arnold sprinkled his own magic on the affair with a fine bending free...

rmed The Championship always throws up drama. Leeds returning to the Premier League, one side beating another 8-0, and teams waiting until the last possible second to either secure a place in the play offs or avoid relegation. For pure entertainment, not much can match it, and the final day of the division on Wednesday did not disappoint. So, here's all you need to know from the second tier's breathless final gameweek of the 2019/20 season. Promoted THE BAGGIES ARE BACK IN THE @premierleague!!!...

Mason Greenwood's start against West Ham was his 50th appearance for Manchester United at senior level. While that might not sound all that outlandish on the surface, it's an incredible stat when you consider he only turned 18 in October. Making his debut as a late substitute in United's Champions League comeback against Paris Saint-Germain in March 2019, it's been a never-ending dream for both himself and United fans ever since. His strike versus West Ham was his 17th for the season in all...

Who gets the honour of becoming the cover star for the latest instalment of EA SPORTS' FIFA series is always a hot topic. It's an iconic role offered to a world-class talent, so naturally Kylian Mbappe is the man to take up the mantle this year. Smashing countless records before turning 22, as well as lifting a plethora of trophies including the 2018 World Cup, have catapulted the Frenchman into a new footballing stratosphere, with his inclusion on the cover of FIFA 21 adding to his accolades....

oint Manchester United were held to a 1-1 draw with West Ham on Wednesday night, as the visitors left with a well deserved point to mathematically confirm their place in next season's Premier League. A first half dominated by United, but one where they failed to properly test Lukas Fabianski, would go West Ham's way in comical fashion. Paul Pogba - for fear of his life - inexplicably handballed in the box when the ball was struck towards him from 20 yards, with Michail Antonio tucking the spot...

Despite the obvious financial impact of the coronavirus pandemic on clubs, Paris Saint-Germain were still able to make Mauro Icardi's loan move permanent in May for around £45m. Indeed, Les Parisiens' financial muscle and ability in the transfer market has been well-documented. But what perhaps goes often unnoticed as a result of their casual £200m investments is their youth academy. In a team that contains Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, Icardi, Angel Di Maria...the list goes on, why would people take...

West Ham have shown an interest in bringing Atalanta defender Robin Gosens to the club this summer, but could face a battle with other clubs for his signature. Gosens - who plays as a left back - has scored an impressive ten goals in all competition this season and assisted a further eight, which has understandably put his name on the lips of a number of clubs. Gosens' attacking qualities have proven enticing for some Premier League clubs The Irons are one of the clubs said to be interested in...

Hands up if you know Alex Iwobi's best position. Anyone? None of Arsene Wenger, Unai Emery or Marco Silva could figure it out either. Throughout his professional career, Iwobi has been used on the left, the right and through the middle. That could be seen as versatility, but in Iwobi’s situation, it is most likely due to a limited number of great performances in any given position. Iwobi left Arsenal for a princely sum Since Carlo Ancelotti joined Everton in December, the Nigeria international...

Legendary former Spain and Real Madrid manager Vicente del Bosque has given his backing to Xavi Hernandez to be a success as head coach at Barcelona, whenever his time comes. Xavi has long been tipped for a return to Camp Nou - where he spent almost all of his playing career - and was a leading candidate to succeed Ernesto Valverde in January. However, it is reported that the four-time Champions League winner, who is currently in charge of Qatari side Al Sadd, turned down the role due to a...
