Jose Mourinho has unleashed a clear dig at Arsene Wenger and Jurgen Klopp by reacting to their comments surrounding Manchester United’s signing of Paul Pogba for an excess of £100 million.

Pep Guardiola’s 2009 ‘revolution’ of Barcelona was not so much the invention of a new system, but rather the insistence on a playing style that’d been utilized by great European footballing sides since the mid-1900s. Key to his idea of attacking football was developing a Barcelona side that could attack from any position on the field — Sergio Busquets was promoted from the Barca B squad, Dani Alves was purchased from Sevilla for €29 million and, most importantly, Gerard Pique returned from Manchester United for the ridiculously low price of €5 million.

Alright, that's it. Nothing to see here. Go back to your daily lives. Paul Pogba will be a Manchester United player. It's finally over. 

When you play a friendly against a team with the word "Viking" in its name, it's only natural that they will give you a sword. Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger found this out when the Gunners played Norwegian club Viking FK, and the Norwegians thoughtfully presented the Frenchman with a sword.

A six-word summary of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's Manchester United career so far: one game, one goal, one trophy.

Before we talk about Zlatan, though, we have to talk about Jesse Lingard, because goodness, this goal.

It’s been the prolonged transfer saga of the summer, there's always got to be one, and it finally looks set to end this weekend: Paul Pogba is ready to undergo his medical at Manchester United and rejoin the club he left in 2012 according to

Most Liverpool fans were either bracing themselves or saying "whatever it's just a friendly" over and over when the Reds took on Barcelona at Wembley on Saturday. When the 90 minutes were up, though, fans were left with a 4-0 scoreline in favor of the scousers and the kind of performance that blows season expectations way out of proportion.

So let's do that.

We'll start with Sadio Mane, who for my money was the best player on a field that had Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi on it. Mane scored Liverpool's first goal, in the 15th minute.

The Boleyn Ground, the former home of West Ham United, was one of the greatest stadiums in all of English football. Located in raucous Upton Park, East London, the ground was a constant source of sound and fury for visiting opposition. This year, West Ham will move into the Olympic Stadium in nearby Stratford.

Having called the Boleyn home since 1904, many supporters were worried about the ramifications of moving to the larger, less-soulful Olympic Stadium.

Wayne Rooney's testimonial match was played Wednesday, and it was emotional for all involved. Everton, his first Premier League team, and Manchester United, likely his last, fought to a 0-0 draw that brought to mind Rooney's recent form. 

This was truly a game indicative of Rooney now who people think should maybe play in midfield or maybe stay in the dressing room and fold towels or something and not younger Rooney, who ran around on the field and did stuff. Here's a blow-by-blow account of the action.
