If you follow English Football you’ve probably heard someone say something about “the magic of the FA Cup”.  Over the years this magic seems to have faded. With the money and subsequent superstar talent now in the Premier League and the popularity and level of competition and talent in the Champions League, cup competitions have taken a back seat.  My faith has been restored and I’m here to tell you that the magic is real. Don’t believe me?  Just ask Wigan Athletic and Rochdale AFC supporters.  They certainly believe. Let’s start with Wigan Athletic.  For half a decade the club has been on a downward roller-coaster-like spiral that has found them currently fighting at the top of the English League 1.  They actually won the FA Cup and were relegated from the Premier League in the same season in 2013.  Well, they’re making some noise this year. The bandwagon is loaded up, and I’m driving!   Their FA Cup campaign this season saw them beat Premier L...

For the last time! Neymar and Ronaldo reports are all fake news! Don't buy into the click bait. PSG spent a ton acquiring Neymar, and despite media fake news reports that he is unhappy, he has been performing well for PSG. Most likely all this fake news revolves around Ronaldo seeking a new contract at the end of the season.  I don't think Real Madrid are keen to tie up their coffers for another contract with Ronaldo. Don't pay any attention to these reports now, because this is all you will read and hear about during the summer after the seasons are put to bed. You can't make this stuff up. In an already active January transfer window, it looks like Chelsea will have something to do with Aubameyang to Arsenal:  - Giroud to Chelsea for 15million transfer fee  - Aubameyang to Arsenal for 55million transfer fee  - Batshuayi to Dortmund on loan from Chelsea Dortmund forcing the complicated deal as they only will sign off on Aubameyang only if ...
