Former Celtic star Kris Commons has delivered a damning verdict on Odsonne Edouard, but his comments are really an indictment of the quality around the Frenchman.

What’s the word?

Edouard is Celtic’s top scorer this season, racking up 20 goals in all competitions, with 14 of those coming in the Premiership.

While Alfredo Morelos has smashed that tally out of the park over at Ibrox, Edouard is the one who will likely end the season with three medals around his neck, and is no doubt one of the best prospects in Britain at the moment.

Former Wigan & Fulham man, Jimmy Bullard recently showed that he’s still got it! Check out the video below…

Commons however, who starred in 227 Celtic games, scoring 89 times and adding 72 assists, said this about the striker on Sky Sports News (29/04/19): “I think the form of Edouard has been hot and cold. When he is good, he is really good. When he is not, he is a bit of a passenger.”

Verdict

It’s quite hard to disagree with Commons’ verdict really, as there have undoubtedly been games this season in which Edouard has been totally anonymous.

However, a striker can only do so much when the team is not performing, and the games he goes missing in are usually the ones in which the passing is sluggish and negative all the way through the team.

As the 21 year-old learns and develops he will have more of an impact outside of scoring goals, but the onus is on the Bhoys to put quality around the young striker, and feed him the ball in dangerous areas whenever possible.

In short, Commons has got it spot on, but his comments reflect much larger issues in the squad that must be addressed this summer, like the need for a playmaker who can stay fit more often than Tom Rogic.

There have never been any doubts about Wilfried Zaha’s ability on the pitch, although major red flags have arisen in his game at times this season that might dissuade some clubs from shelling out the big bucks for his services, ultimately costing him a dream second-chance at European football.

The spellbinding winger has a reputation – deserved or otherwise – for diving and his frustration at not being awarded fouls often leads him to charge down the offender and commit a foul in turn, which he has been typically booked for himself.

It has taken the 26-year-old far too long to realise that his opponents’ unlawful attempts to stop him is a somewhat warped sign of respect for his abilities and that, in rising to their antagonistic exploits, his petulance can cost his team when it matters.

Of course, the number 11’s frustration is understandable, but his sarcastic clapping of Andre Marriner which led to a red card against Southampton on 30th January is inexcusable and an undeniable low-point of an otherwise exemplary campaign.

The talisman’s one-game suspension thereafter seems to have served its purpose in teaching him a lesson though.

Zaha has been in sensational form ever since he collected that red card, chalking up six goals and three assists. Meanwhile, he has been booked just once, compared to seven cautions before that – a pivotal change in his season.

Many football fans dread the transfer window. The Pl>ymaker FC squad name who they’re worried about losing this summer in the video below…

Now the Ivorian seems to understand what it means when he’s kicked all over the park and when he keeps his cool he can can be unplayable, so long may it continue. His 3.7 dribbles per game since the end of January compared to 3.2 dribbles before then shows that this change in attitude has improved his performances even in the area most regard as his strongest.

Palace reportedly value their star man at £75-£80m and, since he’s cut out his petulant antics and become resilient, the tricky speedster has become worth every penny, if not to his potential suitors then the Eagles at least.

Zaha is their attacking soul and with his temper no longer a weakness, the damage he can do on the pitch knows no limits, as Cardiff found out to their detriment on Saturday.

Whether or not the likes of Arsenal and Spurs are willing to cough up that eye-watering sum, Palace shouldn’t budge on their valuation.

A narrow 1-0 defeat was hardly a disastrous result for Manchester City in Tuesday’s Champions League quarter-final first leg and especially when certain circumstances are factored in.

Of their remaining commitments this was feasibly the only one that Pep Guardiola’s men could afford to lose and still go on to complete a remarkable season. Furthermore, not to state the obvious but this was Tottenham Hotspur away, a formidable challenge at the best of times but a test ramped up to significant proportions by virtue of the north London giants boisterously taking recent ownership of their new ground.

On the face of it then, a slender loss that needs rectifying at the Etihad next week wasn’t an apocalyptic outcome and Guardiola certainly seemed to be of that opinion, speaking only of the positives post-game and seeming genuinely sanguine. The more pragmatic of the fan-base meanwhile took stock and leaned on that trusted consolation that is always available after a first leg defeat: it is, when you think about it, merely half-time.

All of the above though doesn’t tell the whole tale. Indeed it sugar-coats the whole tale with a cherry on top.

Because what transpired on Tuesday evening – in both team selection and performance – was another example of the bravest, most innovative, progressive, and singularly minded coach in world football tying himself in knots at the prospect of a Champions League knockout tie. And it’s becoming a problem.

From the announcement of the team line-up an hour prior to kick-off it became painfully apparent that the Catalan had once again succumbed to self-doubt; erring towards a caution he is usually so dismissive of. Riyad Mahrez was surprisingly picked ahead of Leroy Sane due to the former’s more pronounced ability at retaining possession while the midfield was stocked with two holding men at the expense of team architect Kevin de Bruyne – Bernardo Silva’s absence also utterly perplexed until a muscle injury came to light some time later.

There was also one hell of a left-field choice for left field as the combative but limited Fabian Delph was chosen ahead of Danilo or Mendy, this despite the fact that the 28 year old had fallen so spectacularly off the radar of late.

Understandably the supporters were irate at the muddled cop out that appeared on their Twitter timelines and that soon enough grew to immense frustration and finally outright anger as the game played out exactly as they feared. Mahrez – as per – resided in a halfway house, between the player he is and the player Guardiola wants him to be and, with his full-back Danny Rose booked early on and surely dreading the prospect of the tricky Algerian taking him on, he instead contented himself with inconsequential step-overs before laying it off safe.

With Aguero and David Silva largely ineffectual, this left only Raheem Sterling as City’s attacking threat and it was a threat barely deployed as an energetic midfield concentrated on nullifying Sissoko and co rather than causing them untold problems as would normally be the case. To compound matters Delph was to blame for the contest’s only goal.

What was Guardiola thinking? That was the question aired in collective exasperation by City supporters as the final whistle blew. Or, more accurately, what was Guardiola over-thinking?

Worryingly, the celebrated grandmaster has form for this. Last season his history-chasing Manchester City side were absolutely flying and went to Anfield for a combustible Champions League quarter-final first leg having lost in the league only once all season.

That, of course, was to Liverpool and the ferocity in which the Reds dished out that rarest of defeats clearly rattled the outwardly impassable coach, so much in fact that ahead of his trip to Merseyside he then changed his shuffling of a pack that was previously dealing out aces on a weekly basis. Laporte was shifted across to left-back while Gundogan was employed on the right of midfield and, with both players struggling to adapt to unfamiliar roles, it was perhaps inevitable that a rampant home side would take full advantage. They did, winning 3-0.

If that was the by-product of unnecessary circumspection a year earlier the very opposite applied but alas with a familiar end result. In 2016/17 City and Monaco were the high scorers of their respective leagues and Guardiola was happy to facilitate a you-score-one-we’ll-score-one basketball approach. It was a strategy that almost came off too but with City 6-5 ahead on aggregate and just 13 minutes left of an admittedly enthralling double-header it was impossible to change streams and the Ligue 1 champions bagged a late decider.

Indeed, analysing all of the failed Champions League campaigns since Pep Guardiola last won the tournament in 2011 reveals a pattern of gung ho adventure falling short – such as Chelsea’s ‘outjumping’ of Barcelona in 2012 – followed by schizophrenic indecision. For the latter we need look no further than Real Madrid’s 4-0 hammering of Bayern Munich at the Allianz Arena in 2014.

What is particularly noteworthy about these exits is that almost without exception each side were completely dominating their leagues and had coasted through the group stages with swagger to spare. Yet at no point has the intimidatingly cerebral coach considered playing with these strengths only with a tweaking of conservatism. At no point has a happy medium been attained. He has dealt solely in extremes.

If that suggests – as seems likely – that the latter stages of the Champions League has now become an Achilles heel of Guardiola’s then another concern for City fans should be the lack of reasoned voices being listened to around him.

The moment an odd and compromised line-up was first suggested was that which should have prompted a trusted lieutenant to intervene. If only they had the power and influence to do so. When it became crystal clear that Spurs were being spared – that they were more than susceptible to being dismantled with the right tools – that too afforded a golden opportunity for sense to prevail. In the event De Bruyne and Sane scared the hosts stiff for precisely five minutes.

Even the greats have blind-spots. Unfortunately the greats very rarely listen when told where they are.

Manchester United were dumped out of the Champions League by Barcelona on Tuesday, and one stunning stat shows exactly why the Red Devils can’t compete with the big boys anymore.

On the chalkboard

If they’re honest, most Manchester United fans had probably admitted defeat as soon as they saw the starting XI at the Camp Nou.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could not select Luke Shaw due to suspension, so opted instead to deploy Ashley Young on the left side of defence, with Victor Lindelof on the other flank.

Chris Smalling and Phil Jones started out in the middle, something that is surely music to the ears of any opposing forward player.

Here’s the kicker though – three of the back four that started on Tuesday, as well as David De Gea, started a 2-1 Champions League defeat to Basel in December 2011, a match that dumped the Red Devils out at the group stage.

Former Wigan & Fulham man, Jimmy Bullard recently showed that he’s still got it! Check out the video below…

Absolutely atrocious

Let’s put this into perspective shall we? In 2011, Barack Obama was the United States president, Adam Johnson was a Manchester City player and Marcus Rashford was 14 years old.

And yet, eight seasons later, four of the back five (including De Gea) are still being used as regular first team options, despite fans and managers alike yearning for new centre back options every single summer since.

That’s not even the worst part either; three of the four that started both matches have been given new contracts in the last few months, while De Gea, the only one who actually deserves a new deal, is yet to get one. It is mind-numbingly stupid.

Solskjaer didn’t help himself by putting his best centre back in Lindelof at right back, but the fact of the matter is that no manager can build a strong defence around Young, Smalling and Jones.

The latter pair in particular have never proven themselves to be anything more than absolutely mediocre, their reward for which has been to get a shiny new contract, showing just how directionless the club currently are.

Until the owners and Ed Woodward bite the bullet and clear out the massive number of bang average players currently on the books at Old Trafford, it really won’t matter who leads the troops from the dugout, things will only get worse.

Either Liverpool or Manchester City could win the title this season and previous heartbreaks for Manchester United and Chelsea in seasons gone by prove that the margins are likely to be incredibly tight.

Here we are with just a handful of games yet to play and history looks set to be made.

A lot of football fans waste no time in chucking around the word ‘bottlejob’ in the modern game whenever a rival team even so much as trips before the hurdle, let alone stumble over it, but get it in your minds that whoever loses this title race is by no means a ‘bottlejob’.

Liverpool and Manchester City, whoever ends up missing out on the illustrious Premier League title, have recorded seasons seldom seen before in English top-flight history – both of them have been extremely impressive, and whoever does lose out should count themselves as seriously unfortunate.

Watch “Jurgen Klopp’s” hilarious masterplan for winning the title in the video below…

With that in mind, let’s take a look at four of the best teams to fall short of first place in the title race…

Manchester United – 2009/10

Having won the previous two Premier League titles, Manchester United looked good value to add a third successive success to their name, but came unstuck against a formidable foe in Chelsea.

The Blues, managed by Carlo Ancelotti, steamrolled anyone who dared to stand in their way, with their leading man Didier Drogba perhaps in the form of his life.

The Red Devils, however, weren’t at all bad – their 4-0 win over Stoke on the final day saw Chelsea respond with their own 8-0 win over Wigan, showcasing the strength of both teams.

Chelsea – 2007/08

In what is perhaps the unluckiest season for any team to go through, the Chelsea side of 2007/08 were perhaps one of the best sides in Europe at the time, but ultimately ended the season trophyless.

Even more frustrating for them I’m sure, was the fact that the Blues lost out on both the Champions League and the Premier League to Manchester United – they lost on penalties to their domestic rivals in Moscow, and finished just two points behind them in the league.

Astonishingly, Avram Grant was sacked after the campaign. Unlucky, lads.

Liverpool – 2008/09

A rampant Liverpool side with Rafa Benitez at the helm, and spearheaded by Fernando Torres in his prime, could only watch on as arch-rivals Manchester United beat them to a maiden Premier League title by just four points.

Despite beating the Red Devils home and away, and recording a better goal difference than Sir Alex Ferguson’s men could manage, 11 draws ultimately cost them dearly.

Manchester United – 2011/12

The final day to beat all final days. Manchester United thought they had won a record 20th title with a 1-0 win away to Sunderland, and as the seconds ticked away in Manchester City’s game against QPR with the scores at 2-2, players and staff were simply waiting to celebrate.

However, as we all know, Sergio Aguero’s late, late goal saw the title end up in the blue half of the city on goal difference – not even a whopping 89 points earned the Red Devils the title in arguably England’s most thrilling title race to date.

It has a fantastic year to be a Barnsley supporter, hasn’t it?

After taking the risk to appoint Daniel Stendel as their new manager last summer, the Tykes’ fortunes have been completely transformed by the 46-year-old.

Having drilled into his players the style of football that he believed would be successful in League One, the German was proved to be correct as his side fought off competition from Portsmouth, Sunderland and Charlton Athletic to secure automatic promotion alongside Luton Town.

With Stendel facing a busy summer of transfer activity at Oakwell, he may have to find a replacement for goalkeeper Adam Davies.

According to the Yorkshire Post, the 26-year-old is reportedly on the radar of a whole host of clubs with Stoke City, Birmingham City, Hull City and Brentford all interested in signing him when his current deal with Barnsley runs out next month.

If the Tykes cannot agree new terms with Davies and subsequently have to let him go for free, they should consider swooping for one of Scottish football’s rising stars.

Following his move from Rangers to Livingston in 2018, Liam Kelly has emerged as a key player for West Lothian-based side with his outstanding performances in goal helping the club avoid relegation this season.

Although his contract with the Lions doesn’t run out until 2020 (via Transfermarkt), according to reports in the Scottish Sun, a clause in his current deal means that he could leave for as little as £50,000.

With Barnsley one of the sides reported to be interested in Kelly, he could turn out to be a cost-efficient replacement for Davies.

However, in order to secure his services for the 2019/20 campaign, the Tykes will have to fight off competition from the likes of Hamburg and Celtic who are both keeping tabs on the shot-stopper.

By beating these two footballing giants to Kelly’s signature, Barnsley will be sending out a signal of intent to the rest of the Championship that they mean business this year.

What do you think Tykes fans? Should Stendel bring in Kelly if Davies leaves this summer? Or is there another keeper that you think the German should be targeting? Let us know below.

So then, another season of the Premier League is done and dusted and it’s time for the 20 teams to start reviewing their campaigns and putting plans in place for the 2019/2020 term.

Little has changed at the top of the league with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City marching to back-to-back Premier League titles, also picking up the Carabao Cup along the way.

However, it hasn’t all been plain-sailing for the Citizens as they were knocked out of the UEFA Champions League at the quarter-final stage by a Premier League rival once again.

Having said this, it could yet get better for the Etihad Stadium club ahead of the Emirates FA Cup final which will be contested with Watford at Wembley Stadium.

In light of all this, today we review the season of the English champions, from their best result, to whether it was truly a success and who they should sign to improve before next season. Join us…

Best result – Brighton (A) – 4-1

Man City’s best result of the 2018/2019 season undoubtedly came on the final day of the Premier League campaign at the American Express Community Stadium against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Guardiola’s men ventured to the south coast under immense pressure a point ahead of second-place Liverpool, knowing that a victory would seal the trophy for a second successive year. However, if they slipped up, that the Reds would be ready to take the crown.

Disaster threatened to strike when Glenn Murray headed the Seagulls ahead in the 27th minute, but City remained cool and Sergio Aguero replied under 60 seconds later, Aymeric Laporte, Riyad Mahrez and Ilkay Gundogan magnificently following him in to ensure there would be no final twist in the tale.

Best signing – Riyad Mahrez

The Sky Blues only made a handful of signings during the 2018/2019 term, the bulk of them being youngsters who haven’t really threatened the starting Xl.

However, a summer 2018 arrival who wasn’t a starlet and has impressed at senior level in many different matches at various points is attacker Riyad Mahrez.

The Algerian club-record signing from Leicester City recovered from a rocky start which included missing a potentially match-winning penalty at Anfield to register 12 goals and 12 assists and even pop up with a crucial strike on the final day of the season – the stunning third goal against Brighton.

Worst result – Leicester City (A) – 2-1

The Citizens’ worst result of the campaign came during the tricky Festive period, a 2-1 Boxing Day loss to Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

It wasn’t the most severe defeat of 18/19 in terms of scoreline, though it did make for the club’s worst run of results, three losses in the space of four league games and so very nearly cost Guardiola’s boys their title hopes.

Desperately needing a bounce-back three points following a shock home defeat to Crystal Palace, the team fell to Marc Albrighton and Ricardo Pereira strikes – only able to reply with a Sergio Aguero consolation. At that point, they were a full seven points adrift of the top of the table.

Is the manager safe? – Yes

It can be said with a lot of confidence that Pep Guardiola’s job is safe for the foreseeable future after another stellar season.

Having replaced Manuel Pellegrini at the Etihad Stadium ahead of the 2016/2017 campaign, the world-renowned Spaniard has collected a whopping five trophies, including consecutive Premier League and League Cup glories secured this term.

Guardiola is contracted in Manchester until summer 2021 and one would feel that he’d have to do a hell of a lot wrong to get sacked at any stage before then. Although he is yet to show any real signs of UEFA Champions League progression for the Sky Blues.

Who should be sold? 

There isn’t a lot wrong with the current Citizens squad and it would be harsh to suggest that any of the key members should be sold when the summer transfer window gets underway.

But there are a few forgotten men at the Etihad who should go at the campaign’s conclusion. These are fringe central midfielder Fabian Delph, lesser-spotted French centre-back Eliaquim Mangala and current injured third-choice goalkeeper Claudio Bravo.

Delph may have had the quality to deserve a place in the City squad when he signed, but now that just isn’t the case and he needs to make way. The same can very much be said of Mangala who’s rarely made a matchday squad since the start of last August despite recently signing an extension. And the 36-year-old Bravo has spent the term out injured, Guardiola needs a more reliable and fresh enough back-up to Ederson and bright youngster Arijanet Muric.

Goal of the Season 

Many contenders for goal of the season popped up during the campaign for the Sky Blues, including David Silva’s wonderful free-kick at home to Huddersfield Town, Kyle Walker’s low bullet against Newcastle United and Oleksandr Zinchenko’s curling worldie in the 9-0 Burton Albion cup thrashing.

But none of them came near Vincent Kompany’s incredible long-range effort in the key Etihad Stadium beating of Leicester City in Premier League matchday 37.

With City running out of time to find a winner to stay at the top of the table with three points, the central defensive club legend picked up the ball 25 yards out and drilled a rocket into the near right-hand top corner. In the process, leaving Kasper Schmeichel with no chance whatsoever and winning the encounter.

Interesting stat – 14 in a row

One interesting stat from the Manchester powerhouses’ season revolves around their final 14 Premier League matches, from early February to mid-May.

Following the surprise loss away at Newcastle United, City were left with a conundrum whereby picking up three points from each of their final 14 league games would ensure back-to-back titles, regardless of what Liverpool did.

And Guardiola’s men duly took advantage by taking care of Arsenal, Everton, Chelsea, West Ham United, AFC Bournemouth, Watford, Fulham, Cardiff City, Crystal Palace, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Burnley, Leicester City and Brighton & Hove Albion to become the first side to end an English top-flight campaign with 14 successive triumphs.

Success or failure? – Success

In spite of the aforementioned disappointing UEFA Champions League last-eight exit at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur, the Sky Blues’ season can only be ranked as a success yet again.

Guardiola delivered two trophies, defeating Chelsea to lift the League Cup and seeing off the fierce challenge of Liverpool to be crowned champions of England once more. And there’s potential for a third if they can get the better of a Hornets side that finished 10 places and 48 points below them in the Premier League table at Wembley.

City sit on the edge of a highly commendable domestic treble and the last two campaigns have been nothing but successes in the east side of Manchester. Who would bet against the club reflecting on a third consecutive successful term this time next year?

Turning point – Beating Liverpool

As fantastic as City’s season was, there was a period where things weren’t going so great and where a turning point arrived.

Following that forgettable 2-1 loss at Leicester, the Cityzens went to Southampton and picked up a much-needed three points before welcoming Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool to the Etihad Stadium in an encounter that was always going to go a long way to deciding the title race.

Guardiola’s side picked themselves up to stride to a pivotal 2-1 win thanks to Sergio Aguero and Leroy Sane strikes rendering Roberto Firmino’s goal pointless and clawed back a heavy chunk of the seven-point deficit. From here on out, City would only fail to win once in the league in contrast to the Reds’ four draws.

Nuno Santo has insisted that Wolves’ transfer process will be the same next season, regardless of whether the club finishes in a European position, according to quotes per the Express & Star. It’s something that the club now must ensure they follow up on.

What’s the word?

Wolves have done some exceptional business in the two years the Portuguese figure has been at the club. They’ve managed to seal shrewd deals for the likes of Rui Patricio and Joao Moutinho, whilst the signing of Ruben Neves last season was one of the Championship’s most remarkable transfer coups.

Faced with the prospect of playing in Europe next term, talk has emerged about the club’s transfer policy. Next summer will ultimately be a big one at Molineux with the cub looking to build on an excellent first campaign back in the Premier League.

Speaking this week, per quotes from the Express & Star, the Wolves boss revealed that things were unlikely to change.

“Now we have 16 players plus the back-up of the under-23s and the goalies. This is the squad that will go until the end [of the season],” he revealed.

“What is going to happen after that, nobody knows. But the process is the same. We have the base and it’s about maintaining that base. I think 70 or 75 per cent of the squad is the same that was in the Championship, so nothing is going to really change in that aspect,” Nuno added.

Squad overhaul would be a terrible idea

It is imperative that Wolves now follow up on the promise their manager has made this week. They definitely need some added depth and it would be easy to go overboard and plough a significant number of distinctly average squad players into the team.

However, as we’ve seen with the likes of Fulham, that can be detrimental and Wolves fan should fear if their transfer policy was to change.

The £30m signing of Raul Jimenez recently is likely to have taken out a fair chunk of their funds but as we’ve seen already, super agent Jorge Mendes has a habit of finding gems.

We’ve found Raul Jimenez’s No. 1 fan and… it’s a little scary. Check out the video below to see for yourself…

Wolves’ starting XI is settled and it would be foolish to upset the rhythm they’ve gained this season. A few improvements might be necessary but any more than that and it could have a negative effect.

Although a long arduous season is now catching up on the players at Molineux, this can’t be used as an excuse to go overboard during the summer, even if Europa League football is secured.

[ad_pod ]West Ham United fans on Twitter can’t get over what attacker Michail Antonio did on Saturday during the 2-2 Premier League draw with Leicester City’s at London Stadium.Having put Manuel Pellegrini’s men a goal to the good on 37 minutes, the former England international ran straight for the Irons’ new pitch-surrounding claret carpet at their Stratford home.When he got there, Antonio dropped to the ground before gently and comically stroking it, showing his appreciation for the surface which was finally installed last week after years of pressure from supporters.Members of the Claret & Blue Army absolutely loved the ironic display from the 29-year-old, who is known for his funny antics on and off the pitch and renowned goal celebrations.The celebration is all they could talk about in the replies of the Tweet informing them that Antonio had fired West Ham ahead after converting a Mark Noble cross.Who is your club’s worst ever January signing?

أكد أولي واتكينز مهاجم أستون فيلا، أن جده سيكون حزينًا بتسجيله هدفين في مرمى آرسنال أمس، لأنه يشجع الفريق اللندني.

واتكينز سجل ثنائية في فوز أستون فيلا بثلاثة أهداف نظيفة على آرسنال، في المباراة التي جمعت بينهما ضمن الجولة الثامنة من الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز.

وقال واتكينز في تصريحات نقلتها صحيفة “إيفنينج ستاندرد” الإنجليزية: “لست متأكدًا من أن جدي أو العائلة بشكل عام سيكونون سعداء للغاية بالنسبة لي أم لا”.

وأوضح: “إنهم من مشجعي آرسنال وأنا كذلك، لا أعرف هل تسجيلي هدفين في مرمى آرسنال يحزنهم أم يجعلهم سعداء”.

واختتم: “أعتقد أنهم سيكونون سعداء، مثلما أنا سعيد أيضًا، وأشعر بأنني صعدت إلى سطح القمر بالثنائية في آرسنال”.
