A week of swings in FPL with the Wildcard to Bench Boost crowd going against everyone else, and ultimately many did quite similar. But that won't be the case everywhere... Suj and James discuss all the key talking points and games from the weekend as Jarrod Bowen and Igor Thiago rewarded those who held or invested, but there were others with doubles to come who performed well such as Bart Verbruggen and Neco O'Reilly. But O'Reilly may now be out so is it now a case of Marc Guehi versus Rayan Cherki for the third City spot in the double? Can managers dare to take Erling Haaland or Antoine Semenyo on? Coverage of the teams who double, which includes a Bournemouth side who blew the title race back open with a brilliant victory at Arsenal, which means City could be top in 9 days. Plus, why different strategies for 33 may alter the players that are of interest and Tottenham have entered the bottom three.

By: Oliver Fisher During AC Milan’s defeat to Udinese, there were moments on the field that showed a squad that is feeling the heat.

Two of English football’s biggest clubs are set to go head-to-head for one of the Premier League’s most exciting young talents — and the stakes couldn’t be higher. According to CaughtOffside, Liverpool and Chelsea are both preparing summer bids for Bournemouth striker Eli Junior Kroupi, with the Cherries braced to cash in on their prized asset following Dean Huijsen’s big-money exit to Real Madrid last summer. Who Exactly Is Eli Junior Kroupi? If you haven’t been paying attention, now’s the time to start. The 19-year-old Frenchman has been nothing short of sensational in his debut Premier League season — 10 goals and counting, including a match-winner against Arsenal. To put that in perspective, no player has hit double figures in their first Premier League campaign since Robbie Keane managed 12 for Coventry back in 1999-2000. His record-breaking rise at Lorient — becoming the club’s youngest-ever scorer and the youngest player since 1974 to bag a Ligue 1 brace — was just the opening chapter. Why Liverpool Hold the Edge Both clubs can offer Champions League football, but Liverpool appear to be moving faster. Reds director Richard Hughes shares a strong relationship with Bournemouth — his former club — and is [...] The post Liverpool vs Chelsea: The Battle for Bournemouth’s Eli Junior Kroupi appeared first on Football Extras.

After Arsenal’s setback against Bournemouth, there are questions about their mentality, what mindset do they need to carry them over the line in the Premier League title race? Should they embrace the pressure rather than shy away from it? Meanwhile, Manchester City’s experience in high-stakes run-ins could prove decisive. Having been there and done it before, does their winning know-how give them the edge as the season reaches its climax? At the other end of the table Spurs have slipped into the relegation zone for the first time this season, raising serious concerns. Can Roberto De Zerbi implement his philosophy quickly enough to turn things around, or is time already running out in the fight for survival? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Rest Is Football is powered by Fuse Energy.

De Zerbi looks past Simons, Arsenal fans are not helping their team and Ngumoha can give PSG something to think about Football is such that, when you’re down, there’s a good chance the game boots you in the solar plexus, and that’s exactly what happened to Tottenham at the Stadium of Light, Sunderland’s winner coming by way of a deflection. But you can also take steps to help yourself and, though Roberto De Zerbi’s midfield setup made some sense – he picked three hard-runners in order to compete with Sunderland’s physicality – even pre-match, it wasn’t clear who would create their chances. It’s true that Dejan Kulusevski, James Maddison and Mohammed Kudus are out injured, but in that context, it is surely even more important a place in the XI, whether in midfield or out wide, be found for Xavi Simons, left on the sidelines until the 85th minute. Simons is not perfect, but of the players De Zerbi has available he is the only one with the imagination and technique to make things happen. He may lack physicality, but what Spurs need more than anything is quality.

Bacary Sagna insists his heart remains with Arsenal despite his divided loyalties and hopes the Gunners pip Manchester City to the Premier League title.

The dreams of Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney reaching the Premier League could still be fulfilled this season as head coach Phil Parkinson stated that Wrexham's playoff hopes are "not over yet." Wrexham have endured a rough stretch of results at the worst possible time, with back-to-back defeats putting pressure on their push for promotion to the Premier League. To keep the dream alive for owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, head coach Phil Parkinson delivered a defiant message after the latest setback, insisting the playoff hopes are “not over yet.“ The Hollywood duo made no secret of their Premier League ambitions after three consecutive promotions, but the EFL Championship has proven to be the stiffest test yet in terms of the quality of opposition. A 2-2 draw against West Brom followed by heavy defeats to Southampton, 5-1, and most recently Tom Brady’s Birmingham City, 2-0, have seen Wrexham slip to seventh place and out of the automatic playoff positions. Parkinson did not shy away from the reality of the situation when addressing the media after the Birmingham defeat on Sunday: “We’ve had a tough week this week. But we’re not down and out yet. It’s not over yet. People will probably write us off and you can understand that to a certain degree, but inside the dressing room, we’re not writing ourselves off and we’re one win away from getting ourselves going again.“ Since their FA Cup elimination against Chelsea in early March, the Red Dragons have managed just two wins, one draw and four defeats in seven Championship outings. With 15 goals conceded across those matches, the inability to register a single shot on target against Birmingham laid bare some of the attacking concerns that have crept into Wrexham’s game during this difficult run. Carlos Vicente of Birmingham City scores his team’s first goal past goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo of Wrexham. Parkinson also addressed the team’s struggles in front of goal in his post-match press conference. “In every game this season, we’ve carried a threat. We’ve been a goal threat even against Premiership teams in the cup. Today, we just couldn’t find a way to produce that quality. I think the biggest problem we’ve had today is coming on the back of a defeat, and we haven’t had many back-to-back defeats,” he said, a sentiment that rang especially true given it marked the first time Wrexham had lost consecutive matches since August 2025. What’s next for Wrexham in the final sprint? Since the start of March, Wrexham’s form has dipped considerably from the level they had shown throughout the season, but a playoff place remains within reach. Reynolds and McElhenney‘s side currently sit seventh with 64 points from 42 games, four points behind Hull City, who occupy the sixth and final playoff spot. After two consecutive defeats, Wrexham will need to regroup quickly with just four games remaining in the regular season. Their April schedule includes trips to Stoke City, Oxford United and Coventry City, before the campaign closes on May 2 against fourth-placed Middlesbrough, a match that could prove decisive in determining whether the Red Dragons make the playoffs or watch the promotion race from the outside looking in.
