Clint Dempsey Makes The Greatest Podcast Appearance Of All Time On ‘The Crack’

I’m not a podcast person. I listened to Season 1 of Serial on a road trip and only finished it because I was on a road trip. I then avoided the format for like six years until Grant Wahl’s American Prodigy: Freddy Adu, because I need to know where my son Freddy is and what he’s doing at all times. 

But I’m back at it with The Crack Podcast, which I started simply because I love DaMarcus Beasley and Oguchi Onyewu, but I continue because it’s hilarious, informative and generally fucking excellent.

Watch: Mason Mount’s Transcendent First Touch Sets Up Lovely Chelsea Goal

If Mason Mount were American, we’d have elected him emperor of soccerdom already. Instead, he’s a British lad with a boring face who keeps doing astonishing things on the pitch that really deserve more credit. Mount’s brilliant assist sent Chelsea on its way to a 2-0 victory over Fulham at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Late Aleksandar Mitrović Goal Takes Serbia Top Of World Cup Qualifying Group

After coming back from 2-0 down to earn a controversial draw against Portugal on Saturday, Dragan Stojković's Serbia defeated Azerbaijan on Tuesday thanks to a brace by Aleksandar Mitrović.

The18 Decides Which Premier League Teams Deserve To Be Relegated

Watching March Madness over the weekend has made me realize that the world of sports is incredibly cruel. Talent is often not enough to defeat an opponent, and sometimes outplaying the other team isn't even good enough to earn a victory. 

In the Premier League, the teams on the receiving end of this bad luck are usually found in the lower reaches of the league table. Generally speaking, the relegation zone contains three of the worst teams in the league, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they are the three clubs that deserve to be relegated.

American Antonee Robinson Sees Red In Battle Against Pulisic’s Chelsea

What could have been a showcase battle between two Americans on Saturday turned into a horror show for one of them as Chelsea defeated 10-man Fulham 1-0 at Craven Cottage. Neither American had a particularly good day at the park, but the Antonee Robinson red card vs Chelsea proved killer for Fulham.

Fulham Coach Calls Last-Minute Fixture Switch vs. Spurs ‘Scandalous’ — Mourinho DGAF

LONDON — Fulham manager Scott Parker has criticised the Premier League for re-arranging his side's game at Tottenham Hotspur for Wednesday, giving him only 48 hours to prepare his players.

Fourth-placed Spurs were scheduled to face Aston Villa on Wednesday but that match was postponed after a COVID-19 outbreak forced the closure of the Midlands club's training ground.

Instead, Tottenham's home game with Fulham, itself postponed two hours before kickoff on Dec. 30 after a COVID outbreak amongst the Fulham squad, has been squeezed in.
