Swansea City s 3-2 victory at Newcastle United saw them reach a new club record number of points in a Premier League season, and manager Garry Monk was full of praise for his players.

Goals from Nelson Oliveira, Gylfi Sigurdsson and Jack Cork sent Swansea to victory after they battled back from going behind to Ayoze Perez s 20th-minute opener at St James Park.

It s very satisfying, Monk said. I m extremely proud of the players and the staff, the fans  we should be extremely proud of this squad.

I knew if we could get the players to commit we could achie…

Andrey Arshavin wants to help Zenit St Petersburg retain the Russian Premier League title after rejoining the club from Arsenal.

Luciano Spalletti s Zenit side finished top of the table in the first half of the season, but will now compete in a group made up of the top eight sides to determine the title winners.

I want to play and I want to make Zenit champions this year, Arshavin told Sport Express.

I will do everything in my power to lead the team to the title.

Arshavin, 30, arrived back at his former club with just minutes remaining in the Russian transfer window, and said the last-minute move was not a straightforward process.

Friday was a difficult day, he said.

Everything was decided at the last minute. I guess my transfers ca…

Arsenal are ready to reignite their interest in signing West Bromwich Albion centre-back Jonny Evans, according to the Mirror.

The Gunners and Premier League leaders Manchester City were strongly linked with a move for the Northern Ireland defender during the summer with both have bids turned down by the Midlands club.

However, Arsene Wenger is ready to go back in for the twenty-nine year old when the transfer window reopens next month.

Evans moved to the Hawthorns in the summer of 2015 and has since racked up seventy-seven appearances in all competitions, scoring four goals.

Prior to his that he spent over a decade at Manchester United, playing for them just shy of two hundred times and helping them win three Premier League titles and two League Cup…

December 10, 2016 will not be a date that endures in the final analysis of Pep Guardiola s illustrious coaching career but it is likely to burn sharply in the Manchester City manager s mind.

Following a chastening 3-1 loss to title-bound Chelsea the previous weekend, Guardiola s men were 2-0 down inside five minutes and 3-0 behind within 20 at the King Power Stadium before Jamie Vardy completed a hat-trick in a resounding 4-2 win for Leicester City.

It proved to be the last hurrah of Claudio Ranieri s magical Leicester stint, with Vardy and Riyad Mahrez fleetingly rediscovering the form that stunned the Premier League in 2015-16.

But they had accommodating opponents. City were truly abject.

During a frantic opening to the match, it was broadly clear Guard…

Kyle Walker will miss England s first World Cup group game against Iran on Monday, but says he will be ready to go after that.

The Manchester City defender has not featured for club or country since undergoing groin surgery six weeks ago, but was still selected in Gareth Southgate s 26-man squad for the tournament in Qatar.

England s first match against Iran comes too soon for Walker, but the 32-year-old feels he will be fit to play in the Three Lions second group game against the United States on November 25.

To represent your country at a tournament is a great achievement due to the circumstances leading up to it, Walker told ITV Football.

Just because of the injury, it was an operation I had and it was touch a go.

But it s full credit to the…

Hansi Flick expects Robert Lewandowski to be fit and available for Bayern Munich s clash with Union Berlin on Saturday.

Without the star forward due to a minor injury, Bayern recorded a 2-0 win over Lokomotiv Moscow in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Niklas Sule and Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scored second-half goals to lift Bayern onto 16 points in Group A.

Flick said Bayern would be bolstered by the return of Lewandowski against Union Berlin.

Similar to Niko, we ve seen with Choupo that it felt good for him in the end to score the goal, the Bayern coach told a news conference.

Also, for us, this second goal was important in order to finalise the game calmly and patiently. 

And I expect Robert Lewandowski to be 100 per cent�…

Carlo Ancelotti has been impressed by the form of fit-again Bayern Munich star Javi Martinez as the new Bundesliga season approaches.

The versatile Spain international, able to play in defence and midfield, has seen his career in Germany continually interrupted by injury since moving to Bavaria from Athletic Bilbao in 2012.

The 27-year-old started just 11 league games last season due to knee trouble, having ruptured his cruciate ligament in a separate incident in 2014.

Martinez, though, has started both the Super Cup win over Borussia Dortmund and a DFB-Pokal triumph at Carl Zeiss Jena, drawing high praise from his new head coach. 

To be honest, I ve been very surprised by Martinez, Ancelotti was quoted as saying by ESPN.

He was the best play…

Wilfried Zaha s decision to play for Ivory Coast has deprived England of a player with the ability of Brazil star Neymar, according to Yannick Bolasie.

England manager Gareth Southgate tried to persuade Zaha to commit his future to the Three Lions, but the Crystal Palace winger chose to join up with the Ivory Coast squad for the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations.

Everton s Bolasie, who played alongside Zaha at Palace, believes the 24-year-old is starting to show the kind of form that led Manchester United to sign him in 2013.

Bolasie told Radio 5 live: Wilf is getting back to the level [he was at] before he left for United.

Now he s got the goals and the assists and I do think England have missed out there.

Zaha has scored four times in 19 Premier…

AC Milan midfielder Suso is adamant that he made the right choice in leaving Liverpool for Serie A.

The Spaniard was highly rated at Anfield and had broken into the first team as a teenager, impressing on numerous occasions in the first half of the 2012-13 season.

However, he soon fell out of favour and, after going on loan to Almeria in LaLiga the following season, he eventually departed Liverpool for good and joined Milan on a free transfer in July 2015.

Now 22 and fresh from an encouraging loan spell at Genoa last term, he is back in San Siro and has made seven league starts this term.

When I was running down my contract with Liverpool, AC Milan came with the proposal, he told Milan TV. 

Such a chance I could not pass up and I think I have …
