Talk Show Host James Corden Recruited As Arsenal Head Coach

You may know James Corden from his Late Late Show on NBC or his famous episodes of carpool karaoke. Recently, the popular talk show host took a break from hanging out with celebrities and took on a new role. Arsenal was lucky enough to gain him as their new head coach. 

The team begins their day on the bus where Corden leads the group in singing some pump up songs. Corden’s strategy is to get the players out of their comfort zone, which he does by getting them to chant songs about winning. 

Is It Finally, Finally Theo Walcott’s Time?

Theo Walcott can’t help Sven-Goran Eriksson’s strange decision to include him in England’s 2006 FIFA World Cup squad. The cruciate ligament rupture he suffered in 2014, resulting in a 280-day spell on the sideline, was equally unavoidable.

While Walcott’s progress from young phenom to seasoned veteran has been hindered by an assortment of shoulder, abdominal and groin injuries, it’s often forgotten that he’s only 27 years old. 

Jurgen Klopp Is Still A Delight

If you have not seen Jurgen Klopp's appearance on Monday Night Football (the British one), we urge you do do so. It is a delight, and also enlightening, even if you are not a Liverpool fan.

Klopp talks tactics, his journey to management, Liverpool's current form and many other things, and Jamie Carragher eats it all up with a spoon.

Jesse Lingard Trolls Paul Pogba And Marcus Rashford With Little Brother Levels Of Irritation

What a week for 23-year-old Manchester United winger Jesse Lingard. The Manchester United youth academy product put in his best performance of the Premier League season on Saturday in United’s 4-1 victory over Leicester City.

Starting the match and playing for 78 minutes, Lingard played a vital part in United’s second goal by registering a classy assist for Juana Mata’s 37th minute goal. 

Zlatan Was Willing To Do Whatever It Took To Get Paul Pogba To Manchester United

We know Zlatan likes having good teammates, that's what happens when you win the league pretty much every year of your career.

We did not know how much until we saw the first sentence of this ESPN article:

Mino Raiola has revealed that Zlatan Ibrahimovic jokingly threatened to "break his legs" if he had allowed Paul Pogba to join any other club besides Manchester United.

Liverpool Finally Look Like A Jurgen Klopp Team

Liverpool kind-of, sort-of, maybe are starting to look like what Jurgen Klopp wants them to look like.

This should terrify everybody. 

Liverpool played Hull on Saturday, but really "play" is the wrong word, because there was nothing playful about how hard they ran and scrapped and clawed whenever Hull had the ball.

Let's try again: Liverpool worked Hull on Saturday, both in terms of destroying Hull on the scoreboard and working all game, both with and without the ball.

DeAndre Yedlin Unplayable In First Newcastle United League Start

Newcastle United manager Rafa Benitez’s preference for the tactically astute Vernon Anita at right-back has made league minutes tough to come by for DeAndre Yedlin. However, a three-match suspension for Anita opened the door for the 23-year-old American.

Yedlin was preferred to the Spaniard Jesus Gamez on Saturday for Newcastle’s league encounter with Aston Villa. The American seized his opportunity with a man of the match display but was unfortunately subbed off due to an apparent ankle injury in the 73rd minute.

Manchester United Are Not Quite Dead Yet

While we rang the Manchester United death knell and witnessed as the club bore the skeletons of their proverbial dead (Wayne Rooney taking a spot on the bench for this match), the Red Devils conspired to play out 20 minutes of sensational football — the likes of which haven’t been seen at Old Trafford since the Alex Ferguson days.

Paul Pogba was imperial. Marcus Rashford continued his blistering start to the season and Wayne Rooney’s demotion was entirely vindicated. The champions were simply outclassed.

Jose Mourinho’s Latest Zingers Might Just Be His Best Yet

Jose Mourinho's fractious relationship with the media came to a head on Wednesday when he labeled those who attacked himself and Manchester United after a three-game losing streak as “football Einsteins”.

Mourinho's barb was certainly tongue in cheek, using the platform of United’s 3-1 victory over Northampton Town to fire back at those who’ve already begun to question his ability to handle the Old Trafford hot seat:
