Premier League

Emblazoned across the wall at one of the Manchester City training gyms is the slogan “CREATE THE FUTURE.” With their massive outlay on player transfer fees, as well as over £200m spent on the Etihad Campus, a training and academy facility, the Citizens are hell-bent on global domination.

Funded by the seemingly limitless wealth of the Abu Dhabi United Group, the Sky Blues have become a dominant force in English football, winning the Premier League title twice in the last four years.

Jamie Vardy is Santiago Munez. Santiago Munez is Jamie Vardy. They are one and the same.

Vardy's story has understandably drawn comparisons to the plot of the movie "Goal!" And now, the writer of that same movie is apparently pitching a project about Vardy's life. It should be deja vu if the writer actually gets the Vardy movie made.

As fans stormed the field, Ross Barkley and Everton thought they’d won the game in the 95th minute. It seemed pretty clear. You score 5 minutes into stoppage time, you win. Bournemouth thought differently. After play resumed, in a matter of seconds, Bournemouth evened the score with a header from Junior Stanislas. And instead of reading "Everton glory," the headlines read "Everton heartbreak" instead.

How did Stanislas' wonder goal come to be? Thanks to the delay of game after fans stormed the field, the match went on for a few more minutes, giving Bournemouth one last chance.

Three short years ago, no one saw this coming. But then again, that was when Jamie Vardy was a little known name playing for Fleetwood Town FC – a far cry from the bright lights of the top of the table in the English Premier League. Despite being a rising star in League One, the third division of English football, Vardy was about as far from a household name as it gets. How far?

The beautiful game is constantly evolving and adapting with the times and technology on and off the pitch. A perfect example of this is the technology used by London and Premier League giants, Chelsea FC.

The last time we could say, "Leicester City are top of the Premier League," interns were still slut-dropping in the Oval Office (probably). The year was 2000, the month October, and Bill Clinton had just a handful of days left to abuse his power inside 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

This clearance did not go according to plan. You can beat the other team, but you can't beat Mother Nature. Somtimes, when you try to beat Mother Nature, Mother Nature strikes back in the most embarassing way possible, as Mothers are prone to do, and makes you lave like a wind own goal or something. 

This defender in an amateur English game found that our the hard war when he tried to send a long ball through the air during a windy day.

It did not go well.

Rafa Benitez is one of the first names you think of when you think of successful managers in Europe. Valencia, Inter, Liverpool, Chelsea, Napoli and Real Madrid are the big name clubs he’s had the luxury of managing, and he has led these teams to many trophies in his time with them.
