FRIDAY: LEEDS V WEST HAM Leeds have been strong at home this season as they've collected points in all but one of their home games so far this season. They've been in the majority of their games this season and especially at home where the Elland Road factor has definitely played a part. I thought West Ham would put in a performance against Brentford on Monday as Nuno had an international break to work with his players and get them gelled into his way of playing. But they put

Spain have produced a number of talented players over the years and especially since the turn of the 21st century as the majority of great Spanish players have come since then. The only great Spanish player I can think of from before the 21st century would have to be Alfredo Di Stefano who was around during the 50's and 60's and had a great career at Real Madrid. The majority of the great Spanish players were part of the side that dominated international football for a few ye

Managerial Appointments happen all year round because a manager could be sacked at any moment throughout the year. The majority of managerial changes happen during the season as a certain number of teams may be out of form or in a position they don't want to be in and when that happens, the club have no choice but to change the manager. A lot of changes do happen in the off season as well and they happen because a manager's contract may have expired or a team has just had a t

Postecoglou sacking was expected, but the owner must look at himself Ange Postecoglou was sacked just minutes after his Nottingham Forest side were beaten 3-0 by Chelsea and the decision was very much expected to happen because of the poor results they've had since he took over and the fans already turning on him. But when I look back at the decision, the owner Angelos Marinakis has to have a good look at himself as he made the decision to appoint Postecoglou and sack Nuno Es

SATURDAY: NOTTINGHAM FOREST V CHELSEA Ange Postecoglou's future at Forest was up for discussion before the international break after failing to win any of his first seven games in charge. He's definitely under pressure and if he loses this game, that could well be it for him as there are rumours that the club are thinking of replacing him with Sean Dyche. Chelsea got a much needed win before the international break against Liverpool which will have given them a great deal of

France have produced many talented players over the years and especially over the last few years where they've seen a number of talented players come through. They arguably have the best youth system in the world because of the young players they've produced and what a lot of them have gone on to achieve since. That's certainly been the case for the last five to six years because the players they've produced during that time have been some of the most exciting talents in Euro

The summer transfer window is the window when every club makes a move as they'll want to improve their squads ahead of an upcoming season. The majority of the the greatest players to have played in the Premier League have moved clubs during the summer window both from another Premier League club and from a club abroad and almost all of them have made a big impact at whatever club they've joined. The best summer signings have arguably been players who have come from overseas b
