European Super Football

Did you know there are now four European competitions? No, the European Cup Winners Cup isn't coming back. These four competitions are the Champions League, the Europa League, the Europa Conference League and the Fenix Trophy. 2021 saw a Fenix rise from the ashes of the greed of Europe's elite super league fiasco. Minnows could dream of pure football for the fans. It was new, radical & explosive. 2022 we'll be on 🔥 as we crown the inaugural champions of amateur European football. ⚽️ Happy New Year ⚽️ pic.twitter.com/iIoxY4JLDR — Fenix Trophy (@FenixTrophy) December 31, 2021 What is the Fenix Trophy? The Fenix Trophy is already well underway and features Non-League clubs from across Europe. The clubs involved are famous for a variety of reasons including clubs that have been rebuilt and run by fans and clubs featuring significant social and cultural projects. Aside from football, the FENIX Trophy will also promote friendship between clubs from several European nati

English football has wonderful depth. Let's have a look at a recent match from the North West Counties Premier Division.   It involves a match between Lower Breck and Avro FC.  Click here to read the full report from the Avro website . New Avro boss Alex Frost began his managerial career with a win and a clean sheet as Avro stayed fifth in the Premier Division table. They picked up a 2-0 victory against Lower Breck at the Anfield Sports and Community Centre. With both Lewis Lacy and Liam Ellis serving suspensions after their red cards last weekend and James Dwyer injured, the new man in charge paired Kyle Jacobs with Sam Rathbone at the heart of the defence and added Jack Morrow to the midfield. The only other change saw Louis Potts start up front in place of Oumar Camara, who dropped to the bench. The opening quarter of an hour was fairly even, with no clear cut chances for either side. However, Avro took the lead when Potts pursued Rathbone’s long clearance, forcing a mistake by

Derby County are in the news again News reports indicate that Derby County boss Wayne Rooney turned down the chance to talk with Everton about their managerial vacancy.  He wants to stay and help Derby out of the mess that threatens their entire existence.    (Wayne Rooney also had a spell playing for Derby) Rooney said: "Everton approached my agent and asked me to interview for the job, but I turned them down, It was a difficult decision. I believe I will be a Premier League manager and that I am ready for that 100%." He added: "If that comes with Everton, great. But I have a job at Derby, which is important to me." Derby were docked 21 points, their main signings were free agents and loan deals. He turned down the Everton managerial job because helping Derby avoid relegation is "important" to him. I'd be the happiest human if Wayne Rooney manages to keep Derby up. Legend! ❤ #mufc pic.twitter.com/rq7Ey2a1QY — UtdFaithfuls (@UtdFaithfuls) January

Manchester United winger Amad Diallo has joined Rangers on a six-month loan. The 19-year-old Ivory Coast winger has made only nine appearances since his switch from Atalanta last year. His only goal for the club came in a Europa League match against AC Milan. Rangers sporting director Ross Wilson was delighted with the temporary addition and described it as "a really exciting signing for us". He added: "Amad and United had an array of options this window across the Premier League and in Europe." Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst told his club's website: "He is a player who I have been aware of for some time and when the opportunity to sign him came up, we were very keen to make it happen. "He will add a lot to our squad and provide even more competition for the players in the forward areas."

Manchester United 1 - 0 West Ham United Marcus Rashford scored the winner with virtually the last kick of the game as Manchester United leapfrogged West Ham into the Premier League's top four. It seemed certain to be another frustrating afternoon for the hosts, who were stifled by the Hammers' organisation and otherwise came no closer than Fred's second-half effort that was saved by Alphonse Areola. You can watch the highlights in the video below. Reaction from the men in charge Man Utd interim boss Ralf Rangnick told BBC's Match of the Day: "The atmosphere (in the dressing room) is amazing. Quite rightly the boys were celebrating. They know what a massive win this was. "Those are the best kind of wins when the other team has no time to come back. We are extremely happy with the performance and the level of physicality we played with bearing in mind we played three days ago at Brentford." West Ham boss David Moyes added: ""We had a good defe

The Joint Administrators of Derby County have released a statement to update fans on the current situation. It starts: This statement provides a summary of progress to supporters and the media in respect of Derby County Football Club. As we have previously reported, we are dealing with a large number of sensitive issues and felt that issuing reactive statements in response to the recent statements issued by various related parties would at best be unhelpful and also may hinder or prejudice discussions we are having with the same parties. Our perceived lack of recent communication has therefore been both tactical and deliberate. The full statement which can be read here includes a section on the claims from two EFL clubs. This section says: "These have been well documented both by us previously and more recently, by others making statements. We do not think it would be helpful, in view of the sensitivity of these matters, to elaborate on the discussions we have been having other

Full time: Arsenal 0 - 2 Liverpool Liverpool reached their first Wembley final for six years as a double from Diogo Jota set up a Carabao Cup final against Chelsea. Watch the highlights of the match in the video below. This was the place for all the tweets and reaction from the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final between Arsenal and Liverpool. The first match had finished 0-0.  Pre match build up Phil McNulty, a BBC Sport reporter, said: "Two strong sides fighting to face Chelsea in The Carabao Cup Final. Liverpool are still without Mo Salah and Sadio Mane, who are away at Afcon, but there is enough quality in their side and Arsenal's to suggest this will be another tight encounter following last week's goalless draw at Anfield." This is what the Arsenal boss had to say before the match. 🗣 A few words from the boss tonight... 💪 COYG! #CarabaoCup pic.twitter.com/xABt2hn2OQ — Arsenal (@Arsenal) January 20, 2022 One Arsenal fan replied to the tweet with a sim
