All the headlines were about Manchester United capturing Radamel Falcao, while Arsenal merely “settled” again after missing bigger targets.

Following the resolution of Radamel Falcao's season-long loan switch from AS Monaco which completed Manchester United's sixth signing of the summer, some fans and members of the media have labeled the club's transfer spending spree as a 'galactico' policy.

After two hours of watching Rebecca Lowe, Robbie Earle, and Robbie Mustoe break down Deadline Day on NBCSN, I still can't decide if this would be a good thing for Major League Soccer. The signal-to-noise ratio is ridiculously low, a confluence of tabloid pressures, gullibility, and potential for news (albeit slim) creating a ridiculous din, […]

AS Monaco fans and season ticket holders woke up today to find star striker, Radamel Falcao, has been sent on loan to Manchester United only weeks after the sale of Golden Boot Winner James Rodriguez to Real Madrid and they are upset. They took to their self-published website, Planet ASM, in order to give a […]

Chelsea finished third last season behind runners-up Liverpool and Champions Manchester City, in a season during which the Blues often seemed less than capable of beating opponents they should have. Chelsea manager José Mourinho dubbed the squad “a little horse” last season, implying that they were underdogs in the race for the title. It came […]

The most important talking point of Serie A’s day 1 was the AC Milan comeback. The Rossoneri, leaded by club’s legend Filippo Inzaghi at his debut on the bench, won for 3-1 at home against Lazio. The Rossoneri side deserved the three points, thanks to an amazing performance in front of their public. Italian star […]

Before the final whistle had sounded, the brow-furrowing and hand-wringing and calls for Carlo Ancelotti’s head had already begun. Real Madrid, looking less than resplendent in their hot pink away kits, were staring at a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Real Sociedad – a team they beat 9-1 on aggregate last year and a […]

The 28-year-old reportedly earns £300,000-a-week, but United will not be expected to cover the full amount. News of a deal between the two European clubs […]

Does Juventus need another attacker? Whether it be a new striker or an additional attacking-minded midfielder, is one needed? It’s early in the Serie A season, but coach Massimiliano Allegri has already shown that he will at the very least, occasionally rely on Antonio Conte’s trend of using the 3-5-2 system. This system immediately limits […]

Argentinian forward, Lionel Messi, suffered a leg muscle injury as confirmed by his club FC Barcelona after their 1-0 win at Villarreal earlier today.

The deal for Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez to leave Old Trafford is all but finished, according to Sky Sport's Guillem Balague who stated that Hernandez is going to Real Madrid on a one-year loan deal.
