So now we know. After a steady, six-month stream of reports, Jose Mourinho finally *is* the manager of Manchester United, taking the place of the recently-dismissed Louis van Gaal. Predicting what lies ahead for United and Mourinho is almost impossible, but nevertheless, we’ve dusted off our JOE crystal ball and had a look at what’s […]

Jose Mario Dos Santos Mourinho Felix has a new job. You might have heard. With his appointment as Manchester United boss finally confirmed on Friday, the former Chelsea manager is clearly wasting no time as he prepares for the start of next season (it’s almost as if he’s been short of things to do for […]

What a difference a year makes, eh? Only last summer, Jose Mourinho – fresh from steering Chelsea to a league title – was inking a whopping £30m 4-year deal to stay at Chelsea. But a matter of months later, Mourinho was gone. With hopes of retaining their league title already up in smoke, he was […]

Manchester United legend Paddy Crerand is a man that likes to speak his mind. The 77-year-old, who was part of United’s first European Cup winning side in 1968, proved this point on Saturday evening during a conversation on Radio 5Live. Crerand was appearing alongside BBC Sport editor Dan Roan following United’s 2-1 victory over Crystal […]

Sick of hearing about Jose Mourinho to Manchester United yet? Yeah, us too. Unfortunately, we’ve still got a bit longer to wait before the former Chelsea boss inks his contract at Old Trafford – but reports indicate that a deal is very close. Very, very close. So close in fact, that it gave Sky Sports […]

Good on you, Leigh Griffiths. He might well be a Celtic player, but the 25-year-old remains a fan of Hibernian and was out to see the team parade the Scottish Cup following their historic win over Rangers on Saturday. https://youtu.be/tO-83GTsfYw Griffiths also joined a terminally-ill Hibs supporter – a man known only as Harry – for […]

After the season of football they’ve just been subjected to, Aston Villa supporters must have thought things couldn’t get much worse. If anything, the news earlier this week has been quite positive for those that hold Villa dear to their hearts. Unpopular owner Randy Lerner finally packed his bags, completing a deal to sell the club […]

For some reason, some football fans are *still* under the impression that Cristiano Ronaldo possesses something of an ego… … and that he’s not a team player… https://youtu.be/ZsKVf0Z48wA But if a recent story from Spain is to be believed, the Real Madrid star is anything but a sore loser. Having missed out on another La Liga title […]

When you think of the world’s great football rivalries, what springs to mind? Barcelona and Real Madrid? Manchester United and Liverpool? Maybe even Boca Juniors and River Plate? The chances are you probably *don’t* think of New York Red Bulls and New York City FC. But make no mistake about it, although it may be one […]

Not even 24 hours on from a dismal second half showing in Basel and Jurgen Klopp is already crafting his Liverpool side for next season. A report in The Guardian claims that the club are close to signing Mainz 05 goalkeeper Loris Karius – a man who’s already got Liverpool supporters quite excited – in a […]

English football will never be the same again. Well… until someone decides to mess around with it again in a decade or so. Anyway, The Football League have announced plans to introduce an extra division from the start of the 2019-2020 season, meaning there will be 100 professional teams in England instead of the existing 92. The […]

It was all going so well. Leading from Daniel Sturridge’s sumptuous curling effort at the break, it seemed Liverpool were destined to leave Basel with the Europa League trophy. That was until Alberto Moreno stepped in. Despite carrying virtually no threat in the first half Sevilla were gifted the chance to equalise thanks to some […]

A big European final. The sort of occasion where a few nerves are understandable for both fans and players alike. Daniel Sturridge however, doesn’t seem too fazed by it all. When presented with a sight of goal (if you can call it a ‘sight of goal’) such as this one, many a striker would’ve been tempted […]

Technically speaking, it’s a ‘neutral’ ground for Liverpool tonight. Not that it feels that way. Tens of thousands of Reds have made the trip to Basel for tonight’s game against Sevilla, greatly outnumbering supporters of the Spanish club. Although tickets were distributed evenly amongst supporters of both clubs, the scenes before kick off revealed that […]

It’s safe to say that Liverpool supporters have enjoyed their big day (so far at least). With their side taking on Sevilla in Basel, tens of thousands of supporters arrived in the Swiss city ahead of tonight’s final. As we’ve seen throughout the day, there are a good deal more Liverpool fans that have made the […]

It’s not *just* Liverpool fans in Basel

Given that the stadium (by European final standards) is the size of a garden shed, the majority of those Liverpool fans who have travelled to Basel for the Europa League will be fully aware they won’t be watching the game from within St Jakob-Park. But is this going to stop them enjoying themselves? Nope, definitely not. Tens of […]

Olympic chiefs made the announcement on Tuesday and comes after International Olympic Committee (IOC) retested 454 selected doping samples from the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008. The IOC takes decisive action to […]
