Sky sports pundit gives his thoughts below -

Hello and welcome to this weeks monday night special where today we will be looking at the January transfer window-

So Gary, who do you think has done the best business this window?

Well I think as usual you have to look no further than Norwich City, the media darlings over the last few seasons, their signing of Gareth Bale will give them a real driving force for the second half of the season. After that Brighton have done some good business, adding to their playing squad as they look to try to cling on to a 4th spot finish. Tottenhams signing of Sancho and Everton bringing in superstar Ronaldo are obvious pieces of business to note.

Who are you backing to top the table?
For me you look no further than Manchester City, I think they have the driving force behind them to win the title. As an outside bet Chelsea are more than capabe of winning the league this season, but they must sort out their defence to mount a real challenge.

Who do you think will go down?
Blackburn are already gone in my eyes, I think the new manager will help but I feel they should be building into next season. After that I see Fulham and Bournemouth going through the trap door. Bournemouth in my eyes have huge problems, Transfer ban and huge mismanagement of finances could see them in huge trouble moving forwards.

Overall for a relatively quiet window it has been good viewing, Spurs will be looking to build into next season, I am tipping Man city to win the title and Norwich to possibly break into European places!

BALE AND DRUISSI BECOME CANARIES

Gareth Bale has today announced his arrival at Norwich City *Football Club. The sensational move comes after a brilliant start to the season for Mikel Arteta's men. The Real Madrid superstar cost just £4.1M as his contract is coming to an abrupt end.

Gareth reportedly knows a lot of 'world class' golf courses in the Carrow Road area and that played a major part in his decision to move to Norwich. He then also mentioned something about getting European Football for 'his guy' Stephen Fry.

"I f*$%ing love golf!" Bale exclaimed in front of stunned reporters expecting to talk about the move to Norwich. The multi-Champions League winner and former most expensive player in the world has now agreed the move and will arrive at Carrow Road on the 1st January.

Norwich City have not stopped there in backing there manager, landing Dortmund's talented Argentinian striker Seb Driussi for just £10M. Driussi has found himself out of favour in Germany and Mikel Arteta had repotedly been trying to tempt him to Carrow Road for a long time. Driussi put pen to paper on a deal joining superstar Gareth Bale in the Norwich City revolution. Sebastien has already complained about Bale whom he shared a flight with.

A source on the plane heard the two having a little argument before Gareth moved away to another part of the plane muttering 'He better never talk about Tiger in that way again....'

The two were then filmed having a drink with each other shortly after, laughing and joking, so all now seems to be well between the two new signings.​

MANUEL NEUER: THE GERMAN GUNNER (don't worry, we mean the good kind!)

Robbie Lyle and Jimmy Clarke today unveiled new signing Manuel Neuer who arrives from Bayern Munchen. The legendary Bayern and Germany goalkeeper has signed for a cut price £5M fee and will fill the void left by Leno who left for Blackburn earlier on today.

Robbie Lyle said about the leaving Leno, "I always hated him anyway. Manuel is a much better keeper and doesn't smell like **** and biscuits every time he comes into the training ground."

Neuer was paraded to excited fans at the Emirates and Manuel will surely be set to be #1 for the next few years.​

GUNNERS TO GET DOWN WITH DAKA

Robbie Lyle announces the Patson Daka to Arsenal Football Club after the Gunners paid the release clause to bring the young striker to the club. They've now got a few options up front and hope that Patson can come good, not only straight away but in years to come.

"Daka is a fantastic player and will only get better with time. He is at the perfect place for him to learn his trade and he will be undoubtedly be a huge asset for us as we look to improve our standing in the Premier League." Jimmy Clarke said to the gathered media at the unveiling.

Robbie Lyle wasn't quite as polite and professional as he called out Blackburn Owner @Abdul2604 via Twitter, telling him to 'name a signing as good as that, you lancashire ******."

Patson is expected to feature heavily for Arsenal as they look to launch an assault at the silverware still available to them.​

​

Today we are here in the at the King Power Stadium with Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher after Leicesters game and we will look over the premier league and table, stats and all European football up until 1st of April.

Premier League Table-

​

Gary Neville- 'As we can see Liverpool and Manchester City are again in the box seat for the title, both have been formidable over the last few seasons, but lets just talk about Manchester united! What a job Simeone is doing, the solid counter attacking football has been awesome to watch, they have a real shot of taking the title. Chelsea's drop off will be a concern for them, Frank Lampard will take a champions league finish though I would assume. Brighton Have been solid all season, If they can finish the season off well then that would see them into Europe. Tottenham have picked up form and stormed up the table too. Everton are about where I would expect them to be. Zidane was always a really interesting appointment, not one I agreed with, Tactically he is inept, is this showing an inept plan from boardroom level with Zidane still being in a Job? As we look at the bottom, Blackburn are gone and will need to rebuild for next season in the Championship, And I feel Villa will join them. Debt ridden Bournemouth are now struggling and I feel the bottom 3 will stay as they are.'

There have been large amount of protests at Ewood Park against the board and the chairman regime, A toxic place at the moment and one New manager Pekermann will be wondering how he will turn around.

Zidane Under Pressure? He is the bookies favourite at evens to get the boot. Everton fans are largely discontent he is still in the dugout and protests like at Blackburn may start to arise.

Lampards odds from the bookies have also been slashed. Possibly pressure coming from form, 2 transfer windows and a lot of money spent, surely only a matter of time before the chairman shows him the door.

Jamie Carragher- 'For me, Zidane has to go, he has shown he can not get a team to compete with the top 6, not even close. You only have to look at the job Mourinho has done at Brighton and Arteta at Norwich to see he is underachieving. I would personally like to see Frank Lampard given more time, he will get it right there.'

​

Erling Haaland is the premier Leagues top Goalscorer with 18 goals this season.

Gary Neville- 'This brings me back to the problems at Everton, 66 Million is nothing for a goalscorer like this kid. An absolute steal for United and a player they have been crying out for since Van Persie.'

​

 

[Anderson883]

​

This week we are joined by English football league legend and Grimsby town manager Ian Holloway to take us through the Championship Table.

​

​

Ian Holloway - 'Wow what a season of championship action we have had so far! I think we have to start off with my old club Palace. What a disaster for them so far this season. A mid table finish looks likely and being run by a chairman like they are, I really feel sorry for them. Totally no plan, no philosophy and no direction, I fear for their future as a football club. West Ham have recovered well from last season. The board have added some good players and added that spanish bloke as manager, A bit too much tippy tappy football for me but it is getting the job done I guess. Huddersfield are making a late dash for the play offs and are in great form, Could they be the play offs suprise package? Who knows! Oh by the way, poor old Gillingham...'

​

Ian Holloway - 'Joelinton has been Palace's only saving grace, And god knows how! We usually refer to these sort of strikers as a 'donkey' but he has come at trumps, Premier league bound again next season as he will probably get a move there or overseas.'

 

[Anderson883]

​

The Caraboa cup Semi Final saw an all chairman affair, Everton squeezed past Lowly Bournemouth while Liverpool blitzed Southampton to make it an all merseyside final. Wembley was sure to be packed for a merseyside derby final!

​

A game in which Liverpool Dominated from start to finish. An early strike from Sadio Mane to stun Everton and then A goal after half time to secure his brace and another trophy for the dominating red side of merseyside!

 

[Anderson883]

​

The FA Cup is an all Chairman Semi final, Sky sports pundits have made Liverpool the favourites to do an English domestic cup Double.

 

[Anderson883]

​

Some huge ties in the champions league semi final, still a strong contingent of chairman clubs, But Liverpool play Tottenham and will more than fancy their chances. Chelsea drew French giants PSG but have the Home advantage first which is a plus, While another two Chairman clubs fight it out with United playing City. United the favourites with this one due to form and Home advantage first.

​

Two chairman clubs have made it through to the Europa League Quarter finals. Watford have an extremely hard draw away at Bayern Leverkusen, but they should take heart in how far they have come. Arsenal are favourites to slip past Sevilla, them and Bayern Munich are favourites to win the competition.

ROBBIE READY TO SCRAP CLARKE OVER ARSENAL FUTURE

Arsenal owners have issued an ultimatum to manager Jimmy Clarke after their horrific form after January saw them fall to the depths of 10th place in the league. The only thing that seems to be be keeping Clarke in his job is the fact that Arsenal are currently in two semi-finals in the FA Cup and Europa League. Manchester United and Sevilla await the Gunners in the next stage of both competitions.

Robbie Lyle has commented on the current situation via Twitter, "He needs to sort it out, the amount of money I've spent on that stupid English donkey. BRING US SILVERWARE OR YOU'RE OUT THE DOOR."​

END OF SEASON UPDATE

Well that is it and the season is over. There was a big battle at both ends of the table as Liverpool and Man City were level on points and Fulham and Newcastle were separated by just one point. Not a single one of the 4 teams won and only Liverpool picked up a point which resulted in them securing themselves the title and Newcastle suffered relegation losing their final 7 whilst Fulham picked up that 1 vital winning in 8 games. Newcastle join Aston Villa and Blackburn, who return to the Championship.

Man Utd had a poor run just before winning their last 4 games mean they tailed off and finished 9 points behind 2nd. Chelsea claimed the final champions league spot. After poor starts, Everton and Tottenham take 5th and 6th (amazing 2nd half by Tottenham). And Brighton have also secured a place in the Europa League, if they can get through the qualifying stage.

Wolves' return to premier league was above expectation as they finish 8th with Norwich dropping off to finish 9th. Arsenal will be very disappointed to finish in 10th. Burnley will be disappointed after last season to finish 15th while the Bournemouth chairman will be chuffed as they pick up vital wins to secure their place in the premier league again.

 

[andy_14clark]

Well there was a lot of drama going into the last season as 1st placed Cardiff City travelled to 2nd placed West Ham with anything less than 3 points for West Ham would give Cardiff the title........................................so what happened................

WEST HAM TAKE THE TITLE!!!! What a way to end a ding dong battle for the title as West Ham come out on top with a 3-1 win to take the title from Cardiff's grasp.

Bristol City join West Ham and Cardiff in the premier league, defeating Brentford in the playoff final. There was disappointment for the other relegated Premier League chairman clubs as Crystal Palace finish a lowly 12th and Huddersfield finish 14th. Things will pick up next season with 5 chairman clubs occupying the championship.

​

 

[andy_14clark]

Well the FA Cup final was an all Manchester derby with City coming out on top to make up for their loss in the title race.

3 of the 4 teams in the semi final were from the Premier League but only 1 make it to the final as Chelsea come out on top against Tottenham 4-3 and Man City also lose 4-3 against Real Madrid. Now for the final...................

AND CHELSEA HAVE DONE AT!!!! Super sub Tammy Abraham comes on to score in the 80th minute and give Chelsea the title.

​

 

[andy_14clark]

Well both English teams make it to the semi final of the Europa League bit face each other in what was another close encounter with Arsenal coming out on top 3-2 to make the final against FC Bayern.

​

However, they were unable to get over the final hurdle as they succumb to a 1-0 defeat and FC Bayern secure the title.

HAKIM ZIYECH COMPLETES MOVE TO ARSENAL FOR £45M

Simone Inzaghi has wasted no time in adding the second signing of his Arsenal tenure. Hakim Ziyech arrives from Everton for a fee of £45M. The 29-year-old will offer attacking options going forward and will make other wingers sweat on their futures at the Emirates Stadium.

Inzaghi was quoted as saying that Ziyech is a world class winger and would provide a fantastic options for a few years. His experience already in the Premier League should also serve Hakim well after spells with Chelsea and Everton.​

Chelsea Season Review 2021/22

The slight disappointment of a 4th placed finish for Chelsea this year was overridden by an immense Champions League win!!! Owner Didier Drogba stressed that his patience in manager Frank Lampard has brought success and a great moment, with a massive 3-2 victory over Real Madrid in the final! Back-up striker Tammy Abraham replicated Divock Origi heroics from Liverpool's 2019 triumph by netting the winner.

Following on from the high of such a win, the club has added a valuable depth player for 58 million, in the shape of Declan Rice to help get Chelsea closer to the title.

Rice adds key back-up in vital areas, at CDM and CB. He also presents a homegrown English option for the club and will be a brilliant back-up to have who can still easly develop into a starting player. Didier Drogba says the final piece to his Chelsea puzzle remains a RB, and long term target Max Aarons was reportedly approached again, but terms have not been agreed. Drogba remains hopeful that eventually the deal will get across the line.​
