Dias wins FWA

Ruben Dias wins vote ahead of Manchester City team-mate Kevin De Bruyne and Tottenham’s Harry Kane; Nine City players received votes which accounted for 50 per cent of total votes cast; Fran Kirby named FWA Women’s FOTY earlier this month.

Ruben Dias wins vote ahead of Manchester City team-mate Kevin De Bruyne and Tottenham’s Harry Kane; Nine City players received votes which accounted for 50 per cent of total votes cast.

‘Dias is the leader we all need’

Reflecting on his award, Dias said: “It’s a huge privilege, I’m very, very happy. I could not have done it without the success of the team, without everyone in the team deserving this award. Only by that, as a defender, am I able to be here to receive this prize. “Essentially, when I came I wanted to meet everyone as fast as possible, understand how the team plays. I knew the manager and the players, I knew a bit about the philosophy of the club because I am fan of football and I know City from the last few years. “I had an idea of what I was coming to and I wanted to integrate myself as fast as possible.”
Dias is the first defender to win the award since Liverpool’s Steve Nicol back in 1989. The 24-year-old believes his recognition ahead of his goalscoring team-mates is a reflection of the team’s unity. He always says what the award means to him.

“It means something because normally the ones who finish off the plays get the spotlight, but me receiving this award is a major example of our team,” he explained.

“We work and build our game, it reflects the togetherness we have on the pitch. The spirit that runs through this team with these players, how we play like a family.”

A Fighter

Man City have kept 14 clean sheets and conceded just 21 goals in the Premier League this season. After joining from Benfica last summer for £65m, Dias has made 31 appearances for Man City this season, scoring one goal.

His partnership with John Stones at the heart of Guardiola’s defence, which has conceded only 32 goals in total in the league.

After just one win in their first three league games, Dias’ increasing influence in the side helped them go on a staggering 21-game win streak in all competitions, including 15 successive victories in the Premier League.

Dias joins Chelsea’s Fran Kirby, who was named FWA Women’s Footballer of the Year for the second time in her career earlier this month.

The Footballer of the Year trophy has been awarded since 1948 when Sir Stanley Matthews was its first recipient.

Gerrard inducted into PL Hall of Fame.

May 20th, 2021

A Real Captain 👏

The Premier League adds Steven Gerrard to its Hall of Fame 🌟

Gerrard scored 120 goals and provided a further 92 assists in 504 Premier League appearances for Liverpool over his 16 years at the club. In his 17 seasons at Anfield, Gerrard won two FA Cups, three League Cups, the UEFA Champions League, UEFA Cup, FA Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup.👏👏

He won the Premier League Player of the Month award on six separate occasions but failed to get his hands on the title itself, finishing as runners-up in the 2013/14, 2008/09 and 2001/02 campaigns.

Well deserved 👍

Gerrard is the fifth of six players to be announced into the Premier League Hall of Fame. The midfielder joins Alan Shearer, Thierry Henry, Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, Frank Lampard and Dennis Bergkamp already inducted.
CLUB STATEMENT: SAM ALLARDYCE

May 20th, 2021

West Bromwich Albion Football Club can confirm Sam Allardyce will step down from his post as head coach at the end of the season.

The Baggies boss has released a statement detailing the reasons behind his decision, which can be read, here.

Allardyce, 66, said he felt unable to commit to Albion for the long term.

He said: “West Bromwich Albion made me a generous offer to stay at The Hawthorns that shows the commitment of an ambitious club. After serious consideration, I have decided not to accept that offer.

“If I were to stay and achieve promotion next season the expectation would be for me to continue for at least another season and, sadly, that is not a commitment I feel able to make at this stage of my career.”

Sam Allardyce will leave his role as West Brom manager at the end of the season.

Allardyce’s long-time assistant Sammy Lee and first team coach Robbie Stockdale will also depart The Hawthorns and the trio leave with the club’s best wishes for the future.

Sporting and technical director, Luke Dowling, said: “Sam, Sammy and Robbie came in at a really difficult time for the football club and worked tirelessly in their efforts to keep the club in the Premier League.

“Unfortunately, collectively, we were unable to achieve our goal of surviving relegation. In the second half of the season we played with passion and desire, delivering some memorable results with organised, entertaining football.

“Ultimately, we were unable to accumulate the points total required to keep us here, but Sam certainly restored pride with a number of resilient displays.

“Sam, Ken (Chief Executive, Xu Ke) and I have discussed at length our plans for the future and we very much hoped to have Sam in charge for next season and beyond.

“Sam and his coaching staff have been excellent to work with and I would like to thank them all for their efforts.

“Sam has given his reasons for leaving and we respect his decision. He has been brilliant to work with and I wish him, Sammy and Robbie all the very best in the future. They will always be welcome at The Hawthorns.”

Albion will now begin the process of sourcing a replacement for Sam Allardyce as head coach. Allardyce’s final match in charge will be away to Leeds United on Sunday.
Premier League final day

May 20th, 2021

The #PL table heading into the final day of the season.

Champions League, Europa League & Europa Conference League places to be decided on Sun may 23.

One point separates third-placed Chelsea and fifth-placed Leicester City with one game to go.
So, it all comes down to the final day of the Premier League season. Three teams competing over 90 minutes in an attempt to secure a place in next season’s Champions League.

Champions Manchester City have already sealed a spot in the 2021-22 group stage along with Manchester United, who can finish no lower than second.

PL Champions.

A maximum of five English teams can play in the Champions League. Chelsea winning the Champions League against Manchester City on 29 May but finishing fifth would see England’s five team quota fulfilled.

However, Chelsea will be guaranteed third place and a Champions League spot if they beat Aston Villa at Villa Park on Sunday (16:00 BST).

Liverpool and Leicester go into the final day level on 66 points and separated by goal difference – although the Reds have the edge. If Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 1-0 at Anfield, Leicester would have to beat Tottenham by a five-goal margin to finish fourth.

Who’s in the Europa League mix?

Only 32 teams are in the Europa League group stages from now on, down from 48 in previous years.

The fifth-placed Premier League team will qualify for the Europa League group stage – as will the sixth-placed team as FA Cup winners Leicester can finish no lower than fifth.

Going into the final day of the season, Leicester are fifth while West Ham, who are four points behind, are sixth.

Tottenham and Everton are also in contention for sixth spot.

Why seventh place gets into Europe

The Europa Conference League is effectively a step down from the Europa League Uefa’s new third-ranked competition?

The team that finishes seventh in the Premier League will qualify for the play-off round which takes place over two legs on 19 and 26 August.

One of West Ham, Tottenham, Everton and Arsenal, who are at home to Brighton on the final day, are in contention. Leeds can still mathematically finish in a European spot.

However, 10th-placed Leeds, home to relegated West Brom on the final day, would require a set of highly improbable results – including a huge swing in terms of goal difference – to make it.
Mbappe shines as Paris SG won the Frence cup.

May 20th, 2021

Kylian Mbappe scored one and assisted the other for Paris St-Germain.

Paris St-Germain won the French Cup for the sixth time in seven years by beating Monaco at the Stade de France.

Mauro Icardi put Mauricio Pochettino’s side ahead after 19 minutes, slotting in from Kylian Mbappe’s pass after he had pounced on a defensive error.

Mbappe then sealed victory for the 14-time winners with a delightful chipped finish nine minutes from the end.

It is PSG’s second trophy under former Tottenham boss Pochettino, following the Trophee des Champions in January.

Second trophy in Paris

Defending champions PSG are one point behind leaders Lille going into the final round of Ligue 1 fixtures as they chase a league and cup double.

They visit 16th-placed Brest on Sunday at 20:00 BST, while Lille are away to mid-table Angers.

Cup of French Champions
Juventus Console themselves in what has been a rough season.

May 20th, 2021

Gianluigi Buffon, 43, will leave the club this summer after lifting the Coppa Italia for a fifth time

Federico Chiesa’s winner reclaimed the Coppa Italia for Juventus, who won it four straight years from 2015-18. Federico Chiesa’s cool finish earned Andrea Pirlo his first major trophy as a manager as Juventus beat Atalanta in the Coppa Italia final.

Chiesa, who had earlier hit the post from Cristiano Ronaldo’s neat backheel, exchanged passes with Dejan Kulusevski to win a 14th Italian Cup for Juve.

Juventus, fifth in Serie A with one game remaining after winning the title for nine successive seasons, were facing the prospect of a first season without a major trophy in a decade as new boss Pirlo, who took over last summer, struggled to find his feet.

But they created the better chances throughout against an Atalanta side who were unable to add to their solitary 1963 cup triumph, losing a second final in three seasons after their 2019 defeat by Lazio.

34 Career Trophies for Ronaldo.

Atalanta never threatened a second leveller and their frustrations boiled over late on as Rafael Toloi, who had been substituted several minutes earlier, was sent off for dissent shown from the sidelines.

The final was played in front of 4,300 fans at Sassuolo’s Mapei Stadium.

It was the first high-profile football game in Italy to have been played in front of supporters for more than a year, after the country was hit heavily by the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.
