Transfer news: The latest rumours from Man Utd, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool and more

He did not rule out the possibility they had underestimated Albion or even allowed their minds to wander to the international fixtures. “Is it down to the fact that the players went to international games and had their minds not completely [there]? “It is true that we were in positions before where, financially, we had to sell our best players.

And what makes it better than a two day weekend is the addition of Monday Night Football. On top of all that we've got Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher returning to the screens for Monday Night Football on April 10th for Arsenal vs Crystal Palace. The two former defending rivals turned fellow pundits will be joined by a special guest on the night too. It is set to be the first media appearance from the Italian, certainly in this country, since his sacking from the Premier League champions.
