March 24, 2023 by ClownTown

The current season of the Premier League saw certain teams join back after a long break. One of them was Nottingham Forest, which joined back after a break of twenty-three years. However, their position was tentative at best, without wins so far. However, in the recent match that they played against Southampton, they were able to garner a win. As a result, Nottingham Forest is now out of relegation possibility.

Taiwo Awoniyi was the player who scored the one goal which helped Nottingham Forest wins over Southampton. This has been their first win away from their home ground. Southampton now remains at the bottom of the Premier League table. Forest obtained a victory score of 1-0 over them when Brennan Johnson pointed out the midfield error in the 27^th minute by Lyanco, the Brazilian defender. Southampton has set the worse record so far in the game against Nottingham Forest. Che Adams fired wides for which boos were heard.

Chelsea very keen on strengthening defence withBenoit Badiashile

January 29, 2023 by ClownTown

Chelsea are to reinforce the squad in the January transfer window, as the club look to provide a backing for the newly appointed Graham Potter, who has been going through a terrible form after a decent start to his life at the club. Due to a number of injury problems so far this season, Chelsea have been left short of options at the back. Even summer signings like Wesley Fofana have already been injured for a decent chunk of the campaign. As the Premier League gets back to action after the World Cup break, it is clear that the blues need to strengthen in a number of positions – especially in defence.

Chelsea have prioritised the signing of a new centre back over another places. The club have identified French international Benoit Badiashile as a huge transfer target. The 21-year-old is on the books of French outfit Monaco and the blues have been targeting him for around £ 35 million. The initial offer from Chelsea is reported to be worth around £ 31 million but there can be sizeable improvements on this figure over the next few days if Monaco are willing to sell. After coming through the youth ranks at Monaco, Benoit Badiashile has gone on to become a crucial player for the team. He has featured in 135 appearances for the club.

CHELSEA EQUAL UNWANTED PREMIER LEAGUE RECORD

Chelsea have matched an unwanted record after they were beaten again away from the Premier League this season. The Blues were on the receiving end of a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Southampton despite taking the lead. To this effect, they have now lost at least two of their opening five games for the second time in the Premier League era. They lost three of their opening five games during the 2015/16 season under manager Jose Mourinho as they failed to successfully defend their league title from the previous season.

New signing Raheem Sterling was the star of the show during the Leicester City game at the weekend after he scored a brace to lead 10-man Chelsea to a 2-1 home win in the league. He made it three goals in two games with the opening goal against Southampton midway through the first half. However, the hosts were level within five minutes thanks to the stunning strike from young midfielder Romeo Lavia who was signed from Manchester City this summer.

EVERTON IN TALKS TO SIGN MAN UNITED MIDFIELDER JAMES GARNER

October 18, 2022 by ClownTown

According to The Athletic, Premier League club, Everton are in negotiations with Manchester United for young midfielder James Garner. The 21-year-old came through the ranks at Manchester United before making his first team bow under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. However, Garner made just a handful of first-team appearances and was largely consigned to the reserve side.

Garner spent the 2021/22 season on loan at Championship side Nottingham Forest, playing a key role in their promotion to the Premier League. A return to Carrington this summer was much anticipated, but it could prove to be a short-lived one for the young Manchester United midfielder. Erik ten Hag does not appear to have the 21-year-old in his plans for the 2021/22 season. This will prove to be a hindrance to the youngster’s development, and an exit could beckon. There is no shortage of clubs interested, with several teams keeping tabs on the situation.

Tottenham could still make a move or two before the transfer deadline, as Antonio Conte is keen on adding options that strengthen the squad. The manager could look for opportunistic signings that could add quality depth.

While Spurs have strengthened significantly during the window, Conte has been looking for an attacking midfielder to complete his squad. With not much time left in the transfer window, the Lilywhites are in need of upping the ante in their search for a player. The Italian manager wanted to bring Nicolo Zaniolo in this window, but AS Roma’s demands have made it difficult for Tottenham to spend huge sums. They even attempted to get him on loan, but no move materialised. Hence, Tottenham are considering Ruslan Malinovskyi as an alternative, with the Ukrainian in the last year of his contract.

Tottenham Hotspur talisman Harry Kane continued his impressive form with a brace as he helped his team come from behind to beat hosts Rangers at Ibrox. Kane scored twice in the second half to secure an excellent comeback victory over the Europa League finalists from last season. Kane and his Spurs teammates trailed at the half-time interval to the strike from Croatian forward Antonio Colak. The new signing scored for the home team on 24 minutes, but his goal turned out to be mere consolation for the Scottish Premiership giants.

Kane has been in good form during pre-season this summer with three goals in his first two friendly games. The England international took his pre-season friendly tally to four goals in three games with the Spurs equaliser five minutes into the second half off the assist from South Korean star Son Heung-Min. Kane made it five pre-season friendly goals in three matches with the second Tottenham Hotspur goal six minutes later. His second goal turned out to be the winner at the expense of Rangers. Son and Kane have a very good understanding in the Tottenham Hotspur attackas witnessed in the Premier League over the years.
