Major League Soccer take notice – Chelsea’s John Terry may be set to transfer from Stamford Bridge at the end of this season.
Last season Terry was regarded by many as one of the top defenders in the Premier League. Despite his age and history of injuries, the captain has experienced a renaissance during Jose Mourinho’s second stint at Chelsea manager, leading the west London club to the league cup and Premier League double.

It's no surprise that Sir Alex Ferguson has a special place in his heart for Ronaldo. After all, the legendary Manchester United skipper brought Cristiano Ronaldo up through the ranks at United and, some would argue, cultivated him in his youth to become the world class player he is today. Ferguson has even gone so far as to say that Ronaldo is, in a nutshell, a better player and asset to a team than Messi.
This Saturday’s lunchtime kick-off in the Barclays Premier League sees BFFs 4 EVA Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger square off at Stamford Bridge for the 15th time as Arsenal travel to Chelsea. Wenger has only bested his Portuguese adversary once in 14 previous attempts, and never in a Premier League tie. Yet while the Gunners come into the tie sitting fully 13 places higher than Chelsea, they also follow a very underwhelming Champions League performance against Dinamo Zagreb, a tie which they lost 2-1.
West London will be the scene of a huge derby Saturday as Arsene Wenger looks for his second straight win over Jose Mourinho and Chelsea.
Mourinho and the Blues have struggled since these sides first met in the Community Shield match at Wembley at the beginning of August.
Arsenal took home the hardware that day with a 1-0 victory and Wenger enjoyed his first ever victory over the “Special One”.
While the 2nd Republican Nominee Debate on Wednesday contained about as much substance as a Dr. Seuss book, it was nevertheless a spectacle that forced viewers into wrestling with some of life’s most pressing conundrums: Is Donald Trump actually a 14-year-old girl in an ill-thatched, middle-aged billionaire’s body?
David Attenborough is perhaps best-known for his narration of the television series "Planet Earth" and for his nature show on the BBC.
What he is not known for is soccer commentary, but that's just what happened when someone (who we must say is a proper genius) put audio of David Attenborough's narration over a clip of Manchester United practicing.
The bit about Wayne Rooney in particular made our day better.
After its 2-0 victory over Newcastle United on Monday, East London’s West Ham United sits in an impressive fifth place in the table after five matches, ahead of such prominent clubs as Everton, Tottenham, Liverpool, and Chelsea. The results have to be reassuring for fans of West Ham, as the club is facing perhaps the most important season in its history. So just what is at stake for the Hammers this season?
Your flight to Heathrow is arranged. You have packed a primary umbrella, a backup umbrella and an emergency umbrella. You have your Oyster card ready to use on the Tube. Plans have been made to visit a proper chipper (fish and chip shop). I highly recommend Golden Union near Liberty of London. Fantastic! A trip to the British Museum is on the agenda. As are many visits to pubs.
The Premier League returned from its first international break with a vengeance: you had Anthony Martial becoming the reincarnation of Thierry Henry against Liverpool; Chelsea going full crisis; and, of course, West Ham providing some hot Monday Night Football action:
