Arsenal's defender Gabriel Magalhaes will be sidelined for the remainder of the season due to a hamstring injury that necessitates surgery, confirmed the Premier League team.  The Gunners player suffered a hamstring injury in the first half of their 2-1 win against Fulham in the Premier League on Tuesday night.  Gabriel will now be absent for the remainder of the Premier League season, as Arsenal also strives for the Champions League title with a two-legged quarter-final against Real Madrid starting next week.  In response to the injury following the game, Arteta informed reporters: “Concerned because he always wants to stay on and he had to leave."  "He's uncertain about its size and what it truly is, but he sensed he couldn't go on."  When questioned about Gabriel's fitness for the Champions League match against Real Madrid next week, Arteta responded: “It depends; there’s a week ahead, but given how he usually is… challenging.”  Transfer specialist Fab...

Jude Bellingham sends message to Real Madrid opponents regarding Kylian Mbappe's performance

By Damerex -

• Kylian Mbappe scored a remarkable hat-trick to secure a 3-1 victory against Man City. 

• The Frenchman has decisively recovered from a disappointing beginning. 

• Jude Bellingham enthusiastic about the future with new teammate 

Jude Bellingham has stated that Kylian Mbappe is currently "soaring" at Real Madrid, cautioning teams throughout Europe that they will find it difficult to contain the French star. 

Following his notable free transfer to Madrid in the summer, Mbappe experienced a notoriously poor beginning to his time in Spain but, after reaching "rock bottom" with several missed penalties in December, has returned to his brilliant form in 2025. 

Mbappe's hat-trick on Wednesday versus Manchester City raised his season total to 27 goals in 37 matches for Los Blancos, prompting Bellingham to commend his new teammate's influence this year. 

"It's fantastic; you enter matches aware that he will make an impact if you pass him the ball," Bellingham said to TNT Sports following the win against City. 

"You understand that when Kylian receives the ball in zones where he enjoys receiving it, he's going to pose a threat." Right foot, left foot, you witnessed the various types of goals today. 

"It's truly amazing what he has accomplished in his career." I understand he began slowly and was adjusting to life here, but now he’s thriving, and it’s delightful to see. 

Mbappe subsequently acknowledged that his period of adaptation had concluded and he promised to achieve significant success with Madrid. 

"I aim to perform strongly here, I seek to leave an impression on the season," he stated. "I aspire to make history with Real Madrid." My adjustment phase is over, and it's time for me to demonstrate my abilities. 

"It was an ideal evening for the group." Facing Manchester City is always a challenging match, but we were confident that we would be very tough to beat at home. We must proceed in this manner if we aim to achieve our goals this season.

Trophyless XI of players pursuing FA Cup success includes English duo Eze and Watkins

Fulham, Brighton, Bournemouth, and Crystal Palace are seeking their first trophies as they compete for FA Cup triumph in 2025. But what concerning the players without pots? We have you supported with a lineup assured to secure sixth place in the Premier League.  GK: Bart Verbruggen [Brighton] Netherlands' top player Verbruggen kicks off our trophyless XI, as his Brighton team gets ready to face the Premier League's third-best squad, Nottingham Forest, in the FA Cup quarter-finals this Saturday.  Brighton aim to get back at the team that scored seven against them and Verbruggen on February 1. Verbruggen allowed all but two of the attempts that Forest directed on goal, resulting in the Seagulls facing their worst league defeat since the 9-0 loss to Middlesbrough on the opening day of the 1958/59 season in the second division.  Verbruggen is among the top young goalkeepers in Europe yet couldn't secure any titles during his three years at Anderlecht, which is regrettable giv...

Man City predicted to be ‘dissolved’ following FFP ‘private prosecutions’ with Haaland suggested for a move to Forest

By Damerex -

Man City could confront being 'liquidated' due to 'private prosecutions', while a potentially 'humorous' alternative 'resolution' might trigger Erling Haland to Nottingham Forest.  The true ‘greatest’ influence of Man City FFP…  Acknowledging all the warnings, I believe that everyone is missing the main issue if City is deemed guilty. You have listed five penalties, but the greatest effect will likely come from the private prosecutions, which I think have been retained by Man Utd, Liverpool, and Arsenal. United clearly have the greatest need for funds, thus the absence of prize money, sponsorship, and commercial opportunities is an issue they will be eager to tackle concerning titles and trophies. Liverpool and Arsenal will also be bold in pursuing compensation, and we then look at the European teams that have faced disadvantages.  I have made this argument previously, but this could be crucial for City as a club. The club cannot sustain this without the...

Arsenal supporters charged with ‘arrogant self-importance’ and far worse allegations

By Damerex -
Image
Are Arsenal supporters the most unbearable? That is the hypothesis. Liverpool sporting a ‘hollow crown’ has not been well-received.  Now regarding Real Madrid…  My forecast was that the sole way this Arsenal team could defeat Real Madrid across two matches was to secure victory in the first and remain solid in the second.  This is due to our inability to dismantle a team that parks the bus, which will happen at the Bernabeu if we drop the first leg. Especially not a second game at their location. I honestly can’t envision us pulling off a smash and grab like Thierry did previously.  I believe a draw in the first leg has a similar impact, as they'd be clever at home and wait for an opportunity to score.  Nevertheless, following tonight, the 'keeping it tight' aspect is in shambles with the London Colney treatment room bustling once more (does each squad member have their own table?). I was counting on Saliba and Gabriel to understand their French and Brazilian of...

Man Utd confronts a ‘significant challenge’ as Amorim prepares for a record offer for Fernandes

By Damerex -
Image
According to reports, Man Utd is preparing for a historic transfer offer from Real Madrid for Bruno Fernandes during the summer transfer window.  The Red Devils are enduring a difficult season, with Ruben Amorim’s team sitting in 13th place on the Premier League table after 29 games.  Man Utd appointed Amorim to replace Erik ten Hag in November, yet results and performances have declined under the Portuguese manager.  Amorim is facing challenges in getting his Man Utd team to adjust to his style of play, philosophy, and tactics – yet one player who has risen to the occasion is Fernandes.  Fernandes has made a remarkable impact with 16 goals and 14 assists in 44 matches across all competitions this season, despite the team's difficulties.  This has caught the eye of La Liga powerhouses Real Madrid, with the Daily Star reporting that Man Utd is ‘prepared for a record transfer offer’ from Los Blancos during the summer transfer window.  Real Madrid are poised t...

Bukayo Saka makes a perfect comeback, but Arsenal's 24/25 season comes to a premature conclusion after another injury setback

By Damerex -

Bukayo Saka shone brightly with a goal in his comeback during the 2-1 victory against Fulham, yet Arsenal may soon see their season come to an abrupt halt following yet another significant setback...  In reality, Arsenal's chances of winning the Premier League title concluded prior to the international break.  The slim chance of something amusing occurring during what is poised to be a rather tedious conclusion hinged on Mikel Arteta’s team defeating Fulham on Tuesday night and Liverpool prolonging their ongoing two-match winless streak against Everton on Wednesday evening.  Arsenal delivered on their promise, though they didn't do so entirely convincingly…  Even with Saka's positive return to the bench following his hamstring injury, Arsenal's ongoing issues persisted, and one could easily believe – particularly during the first half – that the Fulham match felt like a meaningless fixture as a minor hurdle on the way to summer break.  As they have throughout mu...

Identify the sole two players in the Premier League with star quality

By Damerex -

Did you believe that Bukayo Saka or the current Ballon d’Or winner possesses 'star quality'? As though it makes a difference regardless...  ‘Is the Premier League experiencing a shortage of superstars?’ is an opening line from Sam Wallace in the Daily Telegraph that stems entirely from the absurd situation of the international break concluding with an FA Cup weekend lacking any of England's most popular clubs.  You realize you are drifting into middle age when you begin to ponder where all the true superstars have disappeared to; wasn’t it more enjoyable when you could leave your door unlocked, men were men, women were something unspecified, and the Premier League overflowed with star talent? The issue? It never truly was.  In the latest Forbes ranking of the top-earning athletes in 2024, which generally aligns with the most renowned players globally, the Premier League features three individuals: Erling Haaland, Mo Salah, and Kevin De Bruyne.  In 2020, the Premier L...

Man City placed sixth in FA Cup ‘don’t care’ ranking, which includes four teams with no title

By Damerex -

Seven Premier League teams are in the FA Cup quarter-finals, with four of them being over 115 years old and competing for their first trophy victory.  The inquiry is: How much should the seven remaining premier clubs care about this historic tournament?  7. Nottingham Forest  If you had given Nottingham Forest supporters the choice between Champions League qualification or a domestic trophy at the season's outset, they likely would have chosen the trophy – once they stopped laughing.  With Champions League participation nearly secured, we believe Forest prefers a visit to the Allianz Arena over Wembley. The proprietors would certainly do so – consider all the cash.  6. Manchester City  This year's FA Cup is notably open and thrilling, making Man City’s anticipated 4-0 victory in the final a disappointing letdown.   Pep Guardiola typically avoids trophyless seasons, but securing City’s spot in next season’s Champions League holds more significance than ...
