  Arsenal news as title hopes remain for the 2023/24 season in more ways than one despite Manchester City beating Tottenham to close in Manchester City could yet be punished by the Premier League later this year Ars After Pep Guardiola's side notched up their ninth domestic win in a row, the eighth in the league, by beating Tottenham on Tuesday,   even Arsenal's best efforts look like it won't be enough. The game in north London had been billed as the last chance for the odds turn back in favour of the Gunners. City now know that all they need to do is beat West Ham at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday to secure a fourth title in a row. Only two years ago they had a similar situation on the final day against Aston Villa and went 2-0 down only to come back miraculously to lift the trophy. They have history with that sort of thing. Sergio Aguero, anyone? To make matters worse, although it is David Moyes' last game in charge of the Hammers, they have not won at the Etihad Stadi...

Victor Boniface, Nathan Tella and their Bayer Leverkusen teammates are set to break a 59-year-old record ahead of Thursday’s Europa League second leg semi-final clash with Roma. Leverkusen stretched its unbeaten run to 48 games on Sunday after hammering Eintracht Frankfurt 5-1 in the Bundesliga. The win means that Leverkusen equaled the record for the longest unbeaten run across all top-level matches since the introduction of European competition, according to UEFA. Leverkusen shares the mark with Portuguese giant Benfica, which set the record between 1963-65. Leverkusen will now have the opportunity to break the record on Thursday when they host Roma in the second leg fixture. The all-time mark of 62 games unbeaten was set by Scottish club Celtic from 1915-1917, however, those matches were all in the domestic league. Meanwhile, Xabi Alonso’s men have already wrapped up the Bundesliga title – the first in the club’s 119-year history, ending Bayern Munich’s 11-year dominance in the proc...

  EPL: Man Utd take decision on sacking Ten Hag before FA Cup final against City Published   on   May 7, 2024 By   Ifreke Inyang   Manchester United will not sack manager Erik ten Hag before the team faces Manchester City in the FA Cup final later this month, according to Mail Sport. The Red Devils suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat at Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Monday night. The result has ramped up pressure on Ten Hag, with United fighting to qualify for any European competition next season. But it is understood that there are no plans to dismiss Ten Hag before they play City in the FA Cup final at Wembley on May 25. The belief is that nothing will be gained by removing Ten Hag with four games – three Premier League and the FA Cup final – still to be played before the end of the campaign. Although this may offer Ten Hag belief he can continue for a third season in charge if United beat City at Wembley, the final decision will be taken after that ma...
