Team Focus: Guiltiest Culprits in Club-Wide Collapse at Chelsea Chelsea’s collapse in the early part of this season has been remarkable, even if, in retrospect, the signs were there.

Team Focus: City Collapse Highlights Continued Reliance on Old Guard The puncturing of Manchester City’s aura of invincibility has been remarkable.

Player Focus: How Chris Smalling's Impressive Form is Now the Norm Amid all the chuntering about Louis van Gaal at Manchester United, there has been one undeniable positive: he has elevated Chris Smalling into the sort of player he looked like he might become when he moved to Old Trafford from Fulham in 2010.

They sit two players in front of the back four, and have tremendous pace on the flanks. In three of their four league games this season, they’ve played with three of their four wide men &ndas...

Team Focus: What is Attack and are United Failing at it? “What is attack?” Louis van Gaal asked abruptly after a journalist had challenged how his Netherlands side played in beating Chile at the World Cup last season.

Player Focus: Busy Fabregas Failing to Bring Balance to Chelsea Midfield The focus, understandably, was on John Terry being substituted for the first time ever in a league game by Jose Mourinho. That was the iconic symbol of Chelsea’s malaise: that even the captain, leader, legend couldn’t be relied upon. There are concerns too about Branislav Ivanovic, outpa...

Team Focus: Chelsea Striking Options Thin Beyond Diego Costa

by Jonathan Wilson at lunes, ago. 3 2015 11:15
Team Focus: Chelsea Striking Options Thin Beyond Diego Costa Jose Mourinho’s sense of frustration was obvious. On Friday last week, he told a press-conference that Diego Costa would be fit to play in the Community Shield, despite suffering a hamstring problem in the friendly against Barcelona in Washington DC last week.
