Arteta wants players to 'keep fighting' as Arsenal suffer 'painful' defeat

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta said players should keep fighting in order to turn things around as the club suffered a defeat against Manchester City, which he termed as "really painful".Manchester City defeated Arsenal 4-1 in the Carabao Cup quarter-final here on Wednesday."A really painful moment, again. We started the game by conceding a really early and really soft goal and after that, in this moment, to get through that is obviously difficult. But the players reacted to be fair and they started to grow as the game was moving forwards," the club's official website quoted Arteta as saying."We scored a goal, a really good goal and after that I think that we were the better team for the next 25 minutes. But when we had the best moments in the game, we conceded another soft goal and that makes it even harder. But still, we kept going and we had an open situation where we could've played Laca through and we missed the pass and then they scored the third goal in an offside position. ...

Carabao Cup loss sees Newcastle United facing up to another bleak season

The carrot was a first cup semifinal in 16 years. The opponent was a second-division club fielding a team mostly containing reserve players. This was Newcastle's players' big chance to give their disillusioned fans something to smile about, three days before Christmas. They blew it. A listless performance in a 1-0 loss to Brentford in the English League Cup quarterfinals left Newcastle facing up to another bleak season and its manager fearing the worst. I have to accept what's coming my way is part and parcel of being the manager of Newcastle, Steve Bruce said. The criticism is fully justified. With the Brentford Community Stadium empty during the pandemic, Newcastle's players were spared criticism from the team's match-going fans at the final whistle. Instead, the backlash came over social media, with renewed calls for Bruce to be fired and questions to be asked about the direction of a northeast club still up for sale after the aborted takeover attempt by Saudi Arabia's sovere

English Premier League clubs reject controversial overhaul plan

A plan to transform English soccer engineered by Liverpool and Manchester United was rejected by Premier League rivals at a meeting on Wednesday. Liverpool and United worked with the English Football League on a plan that would have provided more cash for the three professional divisions below the Premier League, but it was denounced by critics as a power grab by the wealthy elite to strengthen their control. The plan known as Project Big Picture was criticized by the government and Premier League leadership ahead of Wednesday's video call between clubs. "All 20 Premier League clubs today unanimously agreed that Project Big Picture will not be endorsed or pursued by the Premier League, or the FA," the Premier League said in a statement. "Further, Premier League Shareholders agreed to work together as a 20-club collective on a strategic plan for the future structures and financing of English football, consulting with all stakeholders to ensure a vibrant, competitive and sustainabl
