League Two Manager Shows Off Insane First Touch, Flicks Ball Away From Opposing Player And Celebrates

Mark Hughes is the manager of League Two club Bradford City. While youngsters might write him off as just another manager, it’s important to remember he's a two-time Premier League winner with Manchester United and made 72 appearances for the Welsh national team, scoring 16 goals. 

The former forward turned manager showed the world he still has a trick or two up his sleeve during Bradford City’s Football League Trophy match vs. Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday. 

When his side cleared the ball toward his touchline, Hughes decided it was time to bust out the skills.

Scott Parker Failed Because Patrick Vieira Succeeded

Bournemouth’s sacking of Scott Parker has many scratching their heads, and for good reason. Parker helped his side earn promotion back up to the Premier League, with very little investment and without the glitz and glamor of many other sides in England’s top flight. Often this tremendous feat would be rewarded with some considerable amount of faith, and yet Parker is out of a job just four games into the Cherries’ return to the first division.

Early-Season EPL Sackings: Do the Numbers Justify Managerial Moves?

We are less than a month into the Premier League season but we already have our first managerial firing, as Bournemouth manager Scott Parker received his pink slip on Tuesday after just four league matches.

The season started promisingly for the team with an opening day win against Aston Villa, then went downhill with three massive defeats against Manchester City, Arsenal, and Liverpool (by a combined score of 16-0). Even with the poor results against the trio of title contenders, the Cherries are in 17th place, one point above the relegation zone. 

Pulisic, Snubbed From 5th Straight Start, Storms To Locker Room After Southampton Defeat

Christian Pulisic’s situation at Chelsea worsens by the day and took an even worse turn during Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat to Southampton on Tuesday.

Before Chelsea’s Premier League game, it was announced that Pulisic wouldn’t be allowed to leave the club for a summer loan or transfer. The summer transfer window closes on Thursday.

Dean Henderson's Early-Season Heroics Show Why He's The Most Underrated EPL Keeper

As with most conversations early in the season, the focus in the Premier League right now is on how top players are performing at new clubs. There is significant buzz around Erling Haaland (six goals) and Gabriel Jesus (five goal contributions), and rightly so.

Yet the best new signing — scratch that — the best player in the EPL so far this season has not been a prolific attacker. He's a loanee goalkeeper for one of the worst teams in the division, but Nottingham Forest's Dean Henderson has been doing all he can to keep the newly promoted club in the first tier.

Nottingham Forest Left Unimpressed By Richarlison's Sudden Display Of Juggling Ability

It's always a Brazilian, isn't it? 

On Sunday, with Spurs cruising to a 2-0 victory over Nottingham Forest at City Ground, Tottenham's Richarlison had a little fun at the expense of the 30,000-strong crowd and drew a stern rebuke from the opposing team's manager for expressing himself out on the pitch. This is basically a week in the life of Neymar.

Allan Saint-Maximin Keeps Newcastle Unbeaten With Thunderous Volley In The 90th-Minute

WOLVERHAMPTON, England - Allan Saint-Maximin struck a thunderous volley in the final minute to rescue a point for Newcastle United in a 1-1 draw at Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Sunday.

Leonardo Sernicola Scores Incredibly Satisfying Goal Against Torino

Stop what you’re doing and watch this goal from Cremonese left-back Leonardo Sernicola.

Late in his side’s eventual 2-1 loss to Torino, Sernicola unleashed a spectacular effort that is ever so satisfying to watch. His teammate Cyriel Dessers chested the ball into his path, but as he approached it, it fell at an awkward height and Sernicola had to improvise. A hop and strike with the inside of his foot preceded a beautiful curling goal that nestled perfectly into the top corner.

Was This Cristiano Ronaldo’s Last Game For Manchester United?

His Last Game For Manchester United?

Cristiano Ronaldo has been linked to a move away from Manchester United ever since the end of last season and with the transfer window closing in a matter of days, there’s reason to be believe that this would have been his last game with the club.

At least that’s what Bruno Fernandes made it out to be when he scored the only goal in Manchester United’s 1-0 victory against Southhampton this Saturday.

USMNT Strikers In Hot Form With Multiple Goals And Assists This Weekend

If someone had asked me close to this time last year which USMNT strikers would go to Qatar I would have had Ricadro Pepi top of mind. Fast forward to present day and the job for the starting striker at the World Cup with the USMNT is there for the taking with several bidders.

Josh Sargent is in the best form of his career, Jordan Pefok has been a menace in front of goal for Union Berlin and Haji Wright is racking up the goals in Turkey. All three USMNT strikers had goal contributions this weekend.
