Newcastle Thought They Could Buy Bastian Schweinsteiger In 2008

There's nothing we love more than a stupid transfer decision made by a team we don't support, which is why we were delighted to find out that in 2008 Newcastle tried to buy Bastian Schweinsteiger. Really.

Chevrolet Invited Fans To Submit Questions For Man Utd Players. It Turned Into A PR Disaster

It hasn’t been the dream beginning that many anticipated following three straight victories to open their 2016-17 Premier League campaign, and many within the Manchester United camp are already beginning to feel the heat.

Wayne Rooney has been in dire form, and his inclusion in the starting XI has been relentlessly questioned. Zlatan Ibrahimovic hasn’t scored a Premier League goal since September 10th. Paul Pogba has hardly justified his gargantuan transfer fee, and Jose Mourinho’s personnel choices, including the ostracizing of Bastian Schweinsteiger, have been criticized.

Bob Bradley vs. Ryan Giggs: Swansea Gave The Job To The Right Man

Former USMNT coach Bob Bradley was appointed manager of Swansea City this week, the Welsh side eliminating Francesco Guidolin like 20,000 emails being wiped from the Clinton Family Server. Having saved them from relegation only a matter of months ago, it feels like a rough deal for Guidolin. The British press, however, have reserved their sympathies for another supposedly wronged man: Ryan Giggs.

Why, you might ask, is a multi-millionaire former footballer with a penchant for other people’s wives receiving the sympathies of Fleet Street?

Bob Bradley Is Back In The Spotlight And Throwing Shots At Jurgen Klinsmann

Bob Bradley is quickly proving he can hang with the best managers in the Premier League, at least in terms of banter.

Bradley's first press conference as manager of Swansea City included a shot at his successor as USMNT manager, Jurgen Klinsmann.

Here's the excerpt everyone's talking about: 

"From the day I got fired from the U.S., I've not said one thing publicly about that team. I don't appreciate the way it was done; I think they made a mistake," Bradley said.

The Future Of American Managers Abroad Hinges On Bob Bradley At Swansea

Bob Bradley is the coach of Premier League side Swansea City. Let that sink in for a second. 

Crazy, right?

Well, if you’re Bob Bradley, then no, it’s not that crazy. According to Bob Bradley, he is on the same managerial level as Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp and Carlo Ancelotti. So the chance to manage a club in the Premier League makes sense. 

What Exactly Does Mesut Ozil Do?

There’s no doubting Mesut Ozil’s quality. You don’t win 81 caps and a World Cup for Germany, a La Liga title with Real Madrid and collect two FA Cup winner’s medals with Arsenal by riding on the coattails of others. However, a criticism of that nature is frequently thrown at Ozil. His languid style leads to cries of having gone AWOL during big matches — particularly during his time with Arsenal.

Robbie Savage Doesn't Know What A Job Interview Is

We can forgive Robbie Savage's ignorance of the hiring process because, as a person who has spent his career as a footballer and football pundit, he probably hasn't gone through it very often. We are going to make fun of him anyway, though, because he has some thoughts on Ryan Goggs and job interviews and those thoughts are frankly hilarious.

Antonio Conte Finally Busted Out his 3-5-2 at Chelsea

Well, the moment Chelsea fans have been thinking about since last spring has finally arrived. Antonio Conte has officially unveiled his 3-5-2. 

Conte had tremendous success with the formation while managing Juventus and the Italian national team. When his hiring was announced at Stamford Bridge, everyone wondered what this would look like in the Premier League. 

We finally found out on Saturday morning when Chelsea traveled to Hull City. And the performance was . . . interesting. 

Bob Bradley Is Getting His Chance To Coach In A Major League

With Premier League side Swansea City languishing in 17th place following a dismal start that’s yielded four points from seven matches, the Swans have acted quickly to fire manager Francesco Guidolin and replace him with former USMNT boss Bob Bradley.
