Ahead of Sutton United's FA Cup tie with Premier League Arsenal, the roly-poly goalkeeper Wayne Shaw shows us what Arsenal's stars can expect when they visit Gander Green Lane on Monday.

The Gunners suffered a crushing 5-1 defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions League in midweek and they will be hoping to avoid further humiliation when they travel to the National League side.

Sutton have already shocked Football League trio Cheltenham, Wimbledon and Leeds on their way to the fifth round - the furthest the club have ever been in the competition - and now they will be looking to add a Premier League scalp to reach the quarter-finals.

Shaw was on hand to show us what Arsene Wenger and his side can expect when they travel to a side 105 places below them in English football's standings.

Mali looks like U23 side and not U17 says Iran U17 coach

By
Image
Head Coach of the Iranian u17 side has accused Mali if age cheating at the ongoing U17 world cup in India. Iran were last Tuesday trashed 5-1 by Mali during the round of 16 match between both sides. Hadji Drame, Lassana N’Diaye, Fode Konate and Seme Camara were on the score sheet in the match dominated by Mali. "They sometimes look like they are an U-23 team and not in the same category as us (U-17),” said Al-Rubaye in the aftermath of the match.  “It’s quite visible in the way they play, the way they shoot and their abilities, like speed and physicality. “It's unfair sometimes because there is a big difference between African teams and others.” Yet Mali coach Jonas Komla shrugged off any insinuations that his side may be fielding overage players. ''In football, it is important to accept the results. In a tournament of this stature, there are clear rules and testing for every player is performed before the World Cup. We have passed all t...

Real Madrid are the first team to win the UCL trophy back to back after a 4-1 win over Juventus

By
Image
He did what he always does. And Real Madrid did what they have done so often since this rather magnificent trophy was first awarded in 1956. Cristiano Ronaldo, at 32, is still demanding centre stage. He won an FA Cup final at this stadium in 2004 as a callow youth against Millwall. It was his first ever trophy. On Saturday night he secured his 20th. The opposition was somewhat more glamorous here, the prize more treasured but the performance remained the same. He did what he does, which is to lead from the front and ensure that, if silverware is at stake, he is the man left holding it at the end. But Real Madrid are the team who appropriated the old European Cup at its outset. Now they are dominating the modern era. This was their 12th trophy of all time. But never before in the modern era of the Champions League has the trophy been defended. It has now. Three wins in four years begins to look like a team of the calibre of Ajax, Bayern, Liverpool, AC Milan. Don't mention it on L...

PSG to sell Cavani next season because of Neymar quarrels.

By
Image
Neymar is not comfortable. The Brazilian has not just found himself at home in Paris. His quarrels with Cavani have caused a bad atmosphere in the locker room, and his relationship with Emery is not the best.  Al-Khelaïfi is concerned about this. The sheikh of PSG does not want his star to be upset, and that is why he has given carte blanche to make any request.  'Ney' is clear: he wants Cavani out next season. To replace it, the ex of Barça has a name in the head: Karim Benzema.  The '10' has a good relationship with the Frenchman, and believes that he would be the perfect player to accompany him and Mbappé in attack.  Benzema has proved to be a striker who does not mind playing for others, and is that it takes years in the shadow of Cristiano Ronaldo without giving any problem. He is a striker who stands out by combining with his teammates and not being selfish facing the goal. That's what Neymar wants.  The PS...

Barça club takes advantage of the president of Real Madrid to take the one in Brazil they see as a natural replacement of the Real Madrid side Barça has managed to take the lead to Real Madrid in the negotiation to close the signing of what in Brazil and see as the natural relay of Marcelo: Guilherme Arana. The Barça club has long been tracking this young defender of Corinthians and is already moving his son to lay the foundations of the agreement that should take him on his way to Barca in the short or medium term.  His performance throughout this year is being absolutely spectacular and that has caught the attention not only of the entity presided over by Florentino Pérez, but also of other clubs in the Spanish League such as Atlético de Madrid or Sevilla.  Marcelo, who signed just a few weeks ago the extension of the contract that links him to Real Madrid, has experienced a serious drop in performance since his last injury.  The player who signed the wh...

Is it normal, this? I don't think.'. Conte thinks Chelsea rivals are favoured in the premier league

By
join us on Facebook  Antonio Conte has complained that the Premier League title race would be closer had fixtures been arranged more fairly. The Chelsea manager, who believes even another run of 13 wins in a row might not challenge Manchester City, is still irritated by the timing of his side's meeting against Pep Guardiola's team from September. Conte is also annoyed that Chelsea have one fewer day to rest than Liverpool for next weekend's fixture after both clubs play in the Champions League. Chelsea were superb in beating West Bromwich Albion 4-0 to record a fourth win in succession but they remain nine points behind leaders City. Conte believes that his team's 1-0 loss at Stamford Bridge, coming with a day's fewer rest than City, is proving pivotal. 'We played against Atletico Madrid away and we came back at five o'clock in the morning on Thursday and we played on Saturday against Manchester City. 'I think in the game one team was favo...

By

The news of Christiano Ronaldo  leaving Madrid had cooled off, and it is almost certain the Portuguese player will be available for Madrid this coming season. Ronaldo, who didn't travel to USA with the rest of the squad, for the preseason tour will likely play his first game for Real against Barcelona in the Spanish super cup. This also mean he may miss the champions league super cup against his formal team Manchester united on 8 Aug in Skopje.
