Here's a rundown of how the club has pushed for promotion this season. Aleksandar Mitrovic record-breaking season. The biggest story of Fulham's season is the ...
Tony's dealings this coming summer will be a major focus for Fulham fans, and could be critical in the club's Premier League survival. In addition, Marco Silva and the club must sit down this summer and construct a Premier League tactical plan. Now, the club has seemingly perfected that style of play, but once again, a move up to the Premier League begs the question: Will Fulham give the possession style another go in the top flight, or change course to a more traditional counter-attacking side typical of newly promoted clubs? Players like Harrison Reed, Bobby Reid, and Tom Cairney had revivals in the Championship, but it's hard to forget how poor they were just a year prior in the top flight as regulars in the squad. His record-breaking Championship campaign proves he still has the cutting edge, but across three Premier League campaigns with Fulham and Newcastle, he has not been up to standards. A host of current players have already proven they don't belong in the Premier League, and improvements will be needed. Fulham stayed in the Premier League for 13 seasons, enjoying its greatest success through 2008-2012 that included a seventh-place finish and an appearance in the Europa League final, until it was relegated in 2014. It has been a season to remember for manager Marco Silva and Fulham, scoring an insane amount of goals in the chase for a Premier League place. Silva managed to take Parker's vision of Fulham as a possession team — which never truly came to fruition in the Premier League — and mold it into a reality in the Championship. Fulham held an average of 60.6 percent possession through the Championship season, completing a stunning 457 passes per game. Out of contract players include American defender Tim Ream, midfield maestro Jean-Michel Seri, and center-back Alfie Mawson. Ream is expected to leave the club, as he has proven below Premier League levels in both recent relegation campaigns. After relegation from the top flight in 1968, Fulham languished for decades in the lower leagues. A slight dip in late September saw the club drop to fifth place, but it quickly recovered and was top by late November, never again relinquishing its lead.
For a fifth straight season, Fulham is riding the promotion-relegation yo-yo. The Cottagers secured a top-two finish in England's Championship by virtue of ...
As for which clubs Fulham could be replacing in the Premier League, two of Silva’s former employers are in the mix. Its return to the Premier League was short-lived once again, with relegation in ’20-21, but it proved resilient—and dominant—in the second tier this season, never truly having its latest promotion effort in any kind of jeopardy. Whether that will be enough to reinforce the club—and find a suitable replacement for talented 19-year-old attacking star Fábio Carvalho, who is expected to leave for Liverpool—and prevent it from suffering immediate relegation in 2022–23 remains to be seen.
Arsenal are the only club of the English Premier League (EPL) 'Big Six' who have the financial resilience to withstand major future economic shocks, ...
The researchers hope this study can help clubs to better withstand and recover from economic shocks. "The findings show the lack of economic resilience amongst the wealthiest clubs and their reliance on external financial resources puts them at risk if the UEFA Financial Fair Play Regulations (FFP) were to change. This became starkly evident during the COVID-19 crisis (which was outside of the time period when the data was collected) , where a number of EPL teams made it clear that they were struggling financially, or acted in a manner that demonstrated that the financial pinch was being felt." While EPL clubs present a large and increasing contribution to the UK economy, clubs are highly reliant on one major source of income and on key individuals. The results show Arsenal is the only current EPL team that has a strong resilience to changes in the wider economy. From 1993 to 2018, the UK economy more than doubled, whereas the wealth of the EPL clubs is 10 times larger than in 1998 and 30 times larger than in 1993.
Thomas Tuchel says his 'special' Chelsea side will be ready for their crucial upcoming matches in the Premier League as the 2021/22 campaign comes to an ...
"We want to play a physical game again tomorrow, want to demand again from the team. "We will fight hard," said the Chelsea head coach on their final few weeks of the 2021/22 campaign. Crucial matches given the task where we want to be and what we want to achieve.
The Premier League will see a battle of two London giants on Tuesday in Chelsea vs. Arsenal at Stamford Bridge. Here's all the information.
While Arsenal will be playing with a chip on its shoulder, Chelsea is in better form and has the superior team. Chelsea look set to lock up the third spot in the Premier League, and a win against Arsenal would give them additional security in that regard. Chelsea is the superior squad on paper as they boast more talent than the Gunners across the pitch.
The Lions and the Gunners will meet for the first time, playing a midseason friendly at Exploria Stadium.
“This is a great way for our players to get high-level gameplay and for our fans to see us match up with a very exciting Premier League opponent. This is going to be a match that no one will want to miss.” Orlando City announced today that the club will host a friendly match against English Premier League giants Arsenal on Wednesday, July 20 at Exploria Stadium. It will be the first meeting between the two sides and the Lions’ first midseason friendly since meeting Stoke City on July 27, 2016.

“There are hundreds of business projects with Spanish companies in Saudi Arabia. Why only the football can’t?” When you achieve something so important early in the season, that gives you time to prepare in the right way and we have to do that.” Tommy T reckons Manchester United, Arsenal and Spurs should have done better in the race for Big Cup qualification given they have all experienced early cup exits. “At Anfield we were treated to a display of sheer professionalism at the highest level. “Our physios made 71 treatments between Atlético Madrid and the semi-final against Liverpool,” he tooted. In Mitrovic, Fulham have a striker who has scored 40 Championship goals this season, a fine achievement that has prompted some armchair critics to flag up the derisory three the Serbian international scored in the top flight last season and label him a flat-track-bully. “I don’t know what’s going on in their heads or if they’re even following women’s football.” “WE ARE PREMIER LEAGUE!” chanted Fulham’s ecstatic players and fans at Craven Cottage, a refrain they previously sung in 2018 and 2020, only to sink like Boris Johnson’s approval rating upon reaching the promised land. This guy was focused on the job” – Mark McFadden. It would be lazy and unoriginal to state that Fulham’s win over Preston on Tuesday guaranteed their relegation from next season’s Premier League, so needless to say that is exactly what The Fiver will do.

Fulham have clinched automatic promotion and look nailed on to win the league title, while Bournemouth are close to sealing automatic promotion back to the ...
10. QPR – 63 points (43 games) +3 Just four points separates Sheffield United in sixth and Coventry in 11th, while it seems like Middlesbrough have the edge in the chasing pack as they have a better goal difference and also have a game in-hand. Chris Wilder has done a superb job to push Boro up the table and they have four relatively straightforward games (is there such a thing in the Championship!?) to negotiate between now and the end of the season. Carlos Corberan’s Terriers were relegation candidates before the season and so too were Nathan Jones’ Hatters but both Huddersfield and Luton have punched well above their weight and looked nailed on to reach the playoffs. Only Fulham and Bournemouth can still win the title. They’ve lost a few games in recent weeks as they edged towards clinching promotion but in truth they’ve been far too good for the Championship this season and their aim will now be to cement their spot in the Premier League after becoming a yo-yo club.

Here's where you can watch all the Premier League action in the US on Wednesday. We break down the makeup day slate.
The Blues are sitting in third place with 62 points, just five points ahead of Tottenham. They have four matches left to play, so in order for them to even have a shot at finishing in the top two, they’d have to win every single match while Liverpool and/or Man City loses the rest of theirs. DraftKings Sportsbook has Chelsea favored at -120, with the Gunners coming in at +340. The Toffees sit in 17th place with 28 points, just three points ahead of 18th-place Burnley.

On examination, this could be a high-scoring affair, with Chelsea keen to sew up Champions League qualification as soon as possible and Arsenal desperate to stay in the race. From being in a strong position suddenly they must win tonight simply to get back on level terms with fourth-placed Tottenham with both sides having six games to go. 70 minutes to KO: Not long now until the teams are announced but Arsenal will be wearing black armbands tonight. 60 minutes to KO: We have the Arsenal team for tonight. 100 minutes to KO: Arsenal must wish that they could press rewind and start April again. 40 minutes to KO: The teams will be out warming up shortly. 30 minutes to KO: The build-up on UK television is well under way with Sky Sports previewing the game. Chelsea have been the better side and did not deserve to be behind and they hit back immediately after Christensen's blunder had gifted Arsenal the lead. "There is nobody here" they sing in what seems to be a non-stop chant designed to mock their opponents. He leads their attacking statistics with 10 goals and eight assists and he has created 41 chances over the course of the season. Arsenal are looking a threat on the flanks when they do get the ball forward. Dream start for Arsenal and it is a real gift.
