The Reggae Boyz, Michael Hector and Bobby Reid, will be plying their trader in the English Premier League (EPL) when the new season begins next month.
Both players are a part of the Fulham FC team that gained promotion to the top flight via the playoffs with a 2-1 win over Brentford on Tuesday.
‘Ole at the wheel’ the sentiments echoed by the jubilant Manchester United fans after finishing third behind champions Liverpool and Manchester City in what could be dubbed as a ‘roller coaster’ season.
In December 2018, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was confirmed as caretaker manager of United for the remainder of that season. Life at Manchester United could not have been better for Ole in his first 10 games. No other United manager had won their first eight straight games at the helm, Ole had nine wins and a draw from his first ten.
Manchester United and Chelsea both secured 2-0 victories over Leicester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers respectively to finish third and fourth in the English Premier League and secure Champions League football for the 2020-2021 season.
When the protracted English Premier League season concludes today, one of three teams near the top of the table will be left bitterly disappointed.
In what has to be one of the most interesting chases for Champions League places in the English Premier League, two of three teams, Manchester United (63 points), Chelsea (63 points) and Leicester City (62 points) will seal their place, while the other will be left holding the bag.
The Premier League returned with a slow start rather than a big bang at Old Trafford on Friday as Jose Mourinho’s men carved out a 2-1 win over Leicester City. World Cup winner Paul Pogba’s 3rd minute goal and Luke Shaw’s 83rd minute strike was enough to hand Mourinho 3 points to start his 3rd campaign as Manchester United manager.
The English Premier League kicks off on August 10th at the Theatre Of Dreams, with many time champions Manchester United hosting former champions Leicester City. Jose Mourinho is keen on silencing his critics, especially his noisy neighbors, while Claude Puel is ‘hell bent’ on stamping his mark on the Foxes. Leicester City will bow into action for the second consecutive time on a opening Friday fixture after losing to Arsenal in a 4-3 thriller last season.
The Foxes will not be outfoxed
