Thomas Müller may have been the man to score Bayern Munich's 100th goal of the league campaign on the season's final day, but it was his assist for the game's opener which will enter the record books.

The Frenchman didn't need to take a touch before rifling the ball into the corner to bring Müller's...

Well, well, well. Liverpool have done it. It is finally their year. You could debate in the pub for hours over whether Liverpool have stepped up this season or if City have let their foot off the gas, but frankly it's both. The Reds have been mesmerising to watch and even when they haven't played well, they've won. They may have already won the EFL Cup this season with the Champions League and FA Cup also up for grabs, but City have a lot of catching up to do in 2020/21. Let's take a look at...

aven ​Like Arrigo Sacchi and the offside trap, Jurgen Klopp and gegenpressing and Pep Guardiola overthinking Champions League knockout ties, Antonio Conte's fetish for wing-backs is a love story that dates back to the start of the fiery Italian's coaching tenure at Juventus in 2011. And along the way, Conte's never been blessed with the most naturally gifted of flankers; from workhorses Stephan Liechtsteiner and Kwadwo Asamoah at the Bianconeri to misfits Marcos Alonso and Victor Moses at...

Aston Villa manager Dean Smith's position as manager has been called into question, after defeat against Wolves made it eight Premier League games without a win.

Smith is under enormous pressure at Villa right now They are yet to taste victory, though, with Smith's side picking up just two points from a possible 12. Villa...

Rice has been converted to a midfielder in the last few years Rumours of interest in Rice...

There's a reason that football is widely monikered 'the beautiful game', and it's due to mavericks like Francesco Totti. To many, Totti is remembered as a one-club man, a legend of the sport who gave his entire career to his beloved hometown side, AS Roma. For others (mainly found in the darkest corners of social media), he is an overrated, overhyped wannabe who either wasn't good enough to land a move to a bigger team, or didn't have the bottle to venture outside of the Italian capital to...
