    Lukaku Struggles To Make An Impact At World Cup - What This Means For The Striker's Future

    With two lacklustre performances by young Belgium and Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku at this year’s World Cup, could his Chelsea career be over before it even really began? This World Cup was a chance for Lukaku to show the world what he can do and possibly cement his place in the Chelsea team next season. This was a particularly good opporunity for him due to the fact that Belgium’s other main striker, Christian Benteke, was ruled out of the tournament with an injury.

    Manchester United Looking To Sign £20m Midfielder Who Has Made 20 Key Passes This Season, But Where Would He Fit In? 

    Manchester United have been said to be after an energetic, box-to-box midfielder who can both defend and create, but most importantly link the midfield unit to the strikers. That's my take, anyway. It would make sense, then, that the Daily Star are reporting the Red Devils to be interested in Valencia playmaker Ever Banega, who has racked up 20 key passes in his 12 outings for the La Liga outfit.

    Why Tottenham Need To Bite The Bullet And Drop Soldado

    When Gareth Bale was sold to Real Madrid in the summer there was a contingent of the Tottenham fanbase who were starting to sweat in terms of how they replace him. Instead of splashing the whole lot on one player, Andre Villas-Boas decided to spread it across a number of outlets - one of those being Roberto Soldado, who has caused mixed emotions in north London.

    Player Report: Manchester City And QPR After Spanish Playmaker, But What Can He Offer?

    Queens Park Rangers have been in the news this week regarding a potential fine for overspending last season, but it appears that they have an expensive player in their views and are willing to fight Manchester City for his services. The player I refer to is Valencia playmaker Carles Gil, who is currently plying his trade on loan at Elche, who were promoted to La Liga last season.

    Why Brendan Rodgers Needs To Bite The Bullet And Drop Liverpool Defender

    Brendan Rodgers is a man who likes to dabble with his tactics. Each week we learn something about the Northern Irish manager and the way he likes to play the game, and recently it's been his 3-5-2 formation. It takes a special kind of player to operate in a backline like this and everyone needs to be on the same page, but unfortunately some have proved that they're not. I'm talking about summer acquisition Aly Cossokho.

    Can Danny Welbeck Become A Key Player For Manchester United?

    With uncertainty surrounding the future of Manchester United strikers Javier Hernandez and Wayne Rooney, there is a huge reliance on Robin van Persie to scored goals. Or is there? Danny Welbeck only managed one league goal last season, but a double against Swansea on Super Sunday may inspire him onto becoming a 15-20 goal a season striker for David Moyes.

    What Can Tottenham Fans Expect From Roberto Soldado? (Video)

    At the age of 28 it is fair to say that Roberto Soldado has had to battle to gain the recognition that he deserves as one of the best strikers in Europe. After joining Real Madrid at the age of 15 he has not had an easy ride to the top and was never really given a chance at the historic club. But can Tottenham get the best out of him and make a genuine title challenge?

    Which league is the best? - the stadiums

    Whilst the English Premier League is the self-proclaimed greatest league in the world, and attracts the most viewers from a worldwide audience, is it actually the best league regarding quality of players, teams and football played, or is it just that the increased media coverage makes people believe that it is the finest on offer? I decided to take a closer look at how it compares with other European leagues by focusing on the stadiums in each country.

    Is Gareth Bale really worth the money? Should Tottenham sell up? (video)

    It looks as though the Gareth Bale transfer rumour to Real Madrid is going to last until the window closes at the end of August. Media reports claim that an apparent £80m offer was refused by Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy, who then stated that the Welshman was absolutely not for sale.

    David Villa: Barcelona's loss is Atletico Madrid's gain (Video)

    News that Atletico Madrid only had to pay £4.5m to sign David Villa from Barcelona seems like one of the best pieces of transfer business we are likely to see this summer. For Spain's all-time top scorer, and still relatively young striker, to leave Catalonia for such a low fee is a real bargain for the Madrid based club, who are looking to replace Radamel Falcao. Why is he such a good player and what are Atletico going to get from him?
