Premier League- Matchweek 4-Chelsea vs Bournemouth Review





Premier League - Saturday 1stSeptember – Matchweek 4 Review - Chelsea vs Bournemouth 

Chelsea can still improve despite opening the 2018/19 Premier League season with four successive victories, according to head coach Maurizio Sarri.
Goals from substitute Pedro and Eden Hazard gave the Blues victory over Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
The result leaves Chelsea level on points with. league leaders Liverpool, who have a better goal difference, heading into the first international break of the season.
Sarri replaced Italian compatriot Antonio Conte in the summer ,after Chelsea finished a huge 30 points behind champions Manchester City last season.
"I'm very happy with 12 points in four matches. But I always think we can do more. We can improve," said Sarri
"I think now for us it's better to think of the next match. Because the gap at the beginning was 30 points. I think it's very difficult to cover this gap in only one season."
Bournemouth produced a resolute defensive display and missed two clear chances when the game was stuck at 0-0. 
"Chelsea are a different team this year, a totally different way of playing," said Cherries boss Eddie Howe, whose side won 3-0 at Stamford Bridge last season.

England U21 vs Austria U21 Review

England U21s 5-1 Austria U21 European Championships 2020 Stadium MK Thursday 15 th October 2019 Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah, who is on loan at Leeds United, claimed tonight’s match ball as England U21s smashed Austria 5-1 to go top of the qualification group. England started positively, with Burnley winger Dwight McNeil winning an early corner for the Young Lions, which ultimately ended in nothing. England continued to threaten the Austrian defence, as Nketiah chips the ball into an open net, only for it to be disallowed for a clear offside. Dwight McNeil, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Phil Foden combined for another early chance, but the Man City midfielder drove the ball wide of Fabain Ehmann’s net. Nketiah was caught offside again, this time chipping his shot wide, but England fans were hopeful that their attacking threat would eventually amount to something. Lukas Malicsek threatened with Austria’s first real chance of the game in the tenth minute...

Arsenal vs Cardiff Preview - Game 4

Image
Cardiff vs Arsenal Preview Cardiff City play hosts to Arsenal in Sunday’s early kick off in Wales, with the Gunners wanting to build momentum following last weekend’s victory against West Ham, being the first competitive win in the Emery era.  Defeats against Man City and then Chelsea were arguably expected for the Gunners, and the losses for the North London side were not at all embarrassing. A 2-goal comeback against Chelsea was encouraging, and a late goal certainly hurt the Gunners.  The 3-1 victory against West Ham was not a vintage performance but a win nonetheless, despite some understandable West Ham grievances, the 3 points were crucial for Arsenal and Emery.  Arsenal will come into the game with confidence, yet back to back victories for Cardiff show signs of promise for the Bluebirds.  The worry for the Welsh side is that they haven’t scored a goal, yet this season and Warnock and his side will certainly hope that comes against t...
