Ranking The 10 Worst Chelsea Transfers Of The Todd Boehly Era So Far

In the summer 2022, Todd Boehly kicked off a new era at Chelsea that can only be described as disastrous. The former 2020/21 Champions League winners under Thomas Tuchel quickly fired the beloved German manager, brought in Boehly's pick Graham Potter from Brighton, promptly fired him, and have since entered a tumultuous relationship with ex-Tottenham coach Mauricio Pochettino. Chelsea have gone from regular Champions League contenders and European champions to a team that basically has little hope of getting back into any sort of European competition. They are spending more money than anyone else yet getting results equivocal to the likes of Wolves and Fulham within the Premier League. Other than success under Pochettino in cups, there isn't much to love about the Blues right now. ...

The 3 Best Liverpool Academy Prospects Jürgen Klopp Developed

As Liverpool prepare to wave farewell to Jürgen Klopp and thank him for everything he has accomplished at one of the most prestigious institutions in world football, many are taking time to reflect on his impact and legacy at Anfield. For the most part, Klopp upgraded Liverpool by making shrewd signings on the transfer market - such as the vaunted trio of Sadio Mané, Roberto Firmino, and Mohamed Salah - and changing the mentality around the club both tactically and, in a matter of speaking, spiritually. He also helped develop young talents into the stars they are today, including a trio of players who have been, are currently, and, most importantly, will be important to Liverpool's success. Here are the three best Liverpool academy players Jürgen Klopp helped develop. Trent Alexa...

Best Premier League U23 Player Rankings: Arsenal dominate; Hope for Chelsea; Don’t sleep on Everton

Here is a ranking of the 10 best U23 players in the Premier League right now during the 2023/2024 season. 10. Everton CM James Garner Everton may be near the bottom of the Premier League table, but they do have a number of young talents worth betting on for the future, with center midfielder James Garner quietly standing out alongside Amadou Onana. While Onana is the one getting looks from the likes of Barcelona, Garner has been arguably even better this season with 2.6 tackles and 1.5 interceptions per game. He's even making a difference offensively with 1.2 key passes and 1.3 fouls drawn per game. At 22, Garner is a young general in midfield for Everton and can become one of the best at his position in the Premier League. 9. Manchester United RW Alejandro Garnacho Famou...

Best U23 players in the world for 2024: Man City and Arsenal make it, Jamal Musiala or Jude Bellingham No. 1?

Who are the best U23 players in world football as the year 2023 closes? Is most of the young talent concentrated in the Premier League or more spread out amongst different leagues? And is Jude Bellingham or Jamal Musiala the best young player? Let's rank the top 10 U23 players in the world before 2024 begins. 10. Manchester City LW Jérémy Doku It may seem too soon to rank Jérémy Doku in the top ten of the world's best U23 players, given this is his first season with Manchester City and he hasn't even logged 700 minutes for the Citizens. However, Doku was already exceptional for Rennes before Pep Guardiola wisely snapped him up for City, where he has remained one of the world's finest dribblers with four dribbles completed per match in the world's most competitive league. A g...

Best Premier League wingers 2024: Man City dominate, West Ham in, Mohamed Salah or Bukayo Saka?

The Premier League is loaded with attacking talent right now, especially when it comes to wingers in the primes of their careers. With about half of the 2023/24 season in the books, let's try to rank the 10 best wingers in the English top flight based on overall pedigree and current performance. 10. Dejan Kulusevski, Tottenham Since Son Heung-min is playing as a striker, Dejan Kulusevski is the Tottenham winger who gets ranked on the list. He's having another very strong season for Spurs, who were in the Premier League title mix for much of the season. Even now, Tottenham are in contention to return to the Champions League after missing out on European football entirely. Kulusevski has helped step up with Harry Kane gone to Bayern Munich, scoring goals but doing a lot more crea...

10 things you need to know about Kai Havertz

Arsenal attacking midfielder Kai Havertz is one of the most talented players in world football, and he's also establishing himself as one of the most versatile. Here are 10 things you need to know about one of Arsenal's newest signings, going back to his days with Chelsea and Bayer Leverkusen before arriving in North London. What is Kai Havertz's best position? This has often been a subject of debate, since Havertz has worn a number of hats during his young career thus far. He's even played left back for the German national team. Havertz is at his best when he can play as a support striker or attacking midfielder behind a striker. As a lone man up top, his finishing isn't consistent enough, and he isn't enough of a presence to be a true 9. Further, he doesn't have the unique skill-set...

Ranking the 10 best Arsenal players of the 2010s decade

In many ways, the 2010s were an awkward period for Arsenal. During the 2000s under Arsene Wenger, the Gunners were, at one point, the most dominant force in English football. They were literally "Invincible" at their peak and would later push Barcelona to their limit in a Champions League Final. And most recently, Arsenal have pushed Manchester City, the champions of Europe, to their limit as legitimate Premier League title contenders with a fresh squad under Mikel Arteta's direction. However, in between, there was a time when it looked like Arsenal would struggle to get back to the point of being a perennial force in the Champions League - let alone return to the summit of English football. For as much as he received criticism, Wenger was the stability point for Arsenal in those dar...

Ranking the 10 best Spanish footballers since 2000

The Spanish national team was the most dominant side in world football from 2008 to 2012. In that time span, they won the European Championship twice and the World Cup once, proving just about impossible to beat behind a Tiki-Taka style of play that was perfected by Pep Guardiola in Barcelona. It is, therefore, unsurprising that when looking back at the best Spanish footballers of the century thus far, many of those players were key cogs in the Blaugrana wheel. Of course, when Spanish footballers are discussed, you had best believe there are plenty of rival Real Madrid players represented. These two historic clubs will unsurprisingly dominate the list of the 10 best Spanish footballers since the year 2000, but if you look closely, you'll find two players who were superstars without spen...

Ranking the 10 best transfers in Real Madrid history

Nobody makes blockbuster signings quite like Real Madrid. From David Beckham and Zinédine Zidane to Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale, Los Blancos have made some of world football's most iconic transfer splashes over the decades, using these superstar signings to mark different eras of the club. But while the Galácticos are known for the glitz and glamor, the most impressive thing about Real Madrid is how sustainably the club has been run over the last decade after president Florentino Pérez learned from his mistakes in his first run. Real Madrid have become a club capable of making huge signings like Jude Bellingham, but they are also able to unearth gems outside of the top five leagues or invest in top talents for less than 10 million euros. All the while, they generate plenty of reve...

Ranking the 10 best Liverpool players of the 2010s decade

Liverpool have a storied history in the context of world football, but even the most successful and well-supported clubs have a dark period. From the 2009/10 to 2015/16 season, the Reds were in the top four of the Premier League just once, finishing second in 2013/14 behind Luis Suárez's 31-goal season. It wasn't until Jürgen Klopp's arrival in that 2015/16 season that Liverpool began turning things around. Klopp helped bring consistent winning back to Liverpool, assembling a juggernaut of a front three in Sadio Mané, Roberto Frimino, and Mohamed Salah. History will remember that attack as one of the best trios to ever grace the Premier League. Even if others will have better statistics, nobody will match the cohesion those three do. But it's not all about the attacking players, nor ...
