Transfers XI 15/16Info Bola Hot

Transfers XI 15/16Info Bola Hot

The 2015/16 season has seen a surge in new talent coming from overseas clubs and transfers between Premier League clubs. We take a look at some of the best transfers this season and their impact on the Premier League. 
Christian Fuchs and Robert Huth

 It would make perfect sense to put these two players under the same roof. Robert Huth and Christian Fuchs have been part of a miracle that is Leicester City, seeing their side reach the top of the Premier League and with one hand already on the title it demonstrates their impact. Alongside club captain Wes Morgan and right back Danny Simpson, this Leicester back four have been near on impossible to break down and the addition of these two players speak for themselves. With 15 clean sheets, they are a huge factor as to why Leicester are sitting at the top of the table.



Toby Alderweireld 

 Continuing with the theme of defenders, Tottenham's back four has been strengthened with the addition of Toby Alderwireld. Having recently been named in this year's PFA Team of the Year, the Belgian centre-half has had a terrific season. Forming a formidable partnership with fellow countryman Jan Vertoghan, Tottenham have conceded the least amount of goals in the Premier League this season and still remain in the hunt for the title. Not only has Alderweireld proven to be a rock at the back, his goals have been important from set pieces too and added to the fire power that Tottenham possess.
Jan Kirchoff

 Despite the torrid season that Sunderland have had, Jan Kirchoff has become a spark in their team. Joining in the January transfer period from Bayern Munich's second team, Sam Allardyce has seen the 25-year-old become an important aspect of his survival campaign. Being in the central midfield role, Kirchoff has looked to steady the ship and Sunderland have recently been picking up results.
N'Golo Kante

 Arguably the signing of the season. Kante simply cannot get any more praise from viewers of the Premier League. Like Alderweireld, Kante was named in the PFA Team of the Year and has been one of Leicester's key players this season. Known for his incredible energy, interceptions, and persistence, Kante would get into any Premier League side. His performance's this season has seen him get a call-up to the French national squad, and will be sure to feature in the summer tournament. Signing for just €8 million euros, he has been incredible. 
Michail Antonio

 Taking the step up from the Championship to the Premier League has often been proven as a hard task. Not for West Ham midfielder Michail Antonio. The English winger has settled in very quickly to the Premier League scoring goals and helping West Ham push for the top 4. Antonio has also shown his versatility playing as a right back as well as a right winger. His name has often crept up regarding an England call-up, and with English wingers not performing to their best, he could be in with a shout.




 Dimitri Payet

 West Ham's new golden boy Dimitri Payet has taken the Premier League by storm. Scoring goals for fun, assisting and having the second highest chances created show just how much West Ham value him. Included in this year's PFA Team of the Year, Payet saw himself in the shortlist for Player of the Year too. Already having his own song given to him by the West Ham faithful, Payet is quickly becoming a legend to the club helping them push for a Champions League spot and given them their best Premier League season ever. 




 Andre Ayew

 Swansea's new golden boy and second top scorer for the club in 2016 Andre Ayew, has been a spark to a miserable season for Swansea. Scoring 10 goals in 31 appearances for the Welsh side, Ayew has become one of the first names on the team sheet. If Swansea do not look to invest in this summer's transfer winder, they could see Ayew move on as his talent this season has shown he is capable of playing at a higher club.

Andros Townsend

 Newcastle certainly splashed the cash in the January transfer window and Andros Townsend has proven to be worth every penny. The relegation scrap has become closer by the week and with Townsend's goals, Newcastle have a real chance of survival. He has given the Newcastle fans something to cheer about and after having a good spell with England under Hodgson he could be in contention for returning if he keeps up his form.
Georginio Wijnaldum


Another addition to Newcastle's squad this year was Dutchman Georginio Wijnaldum. In his first season at the club, Wijnaldum is their top scorer and a fan favourite. Without him Newcastle would be relegated already that's for sure. Georginio became only the second ever Newcastle player to score more than three goals in a match when he scored four against Norwich. It's fair to say that even if Newcastle stay up, there will be a high amount of interest from other clubs trying to get his signature. 



 Kevin De Bruyne

 Manchester City's attacking midfielder has continued his incredible season at Wolfsburg becoming a goal scoring and assisting machine. The young Belgian is a key factor to City's top four push and their Champions League season as they prepare to face the second leg of the semi-final against Real Madrid. With injuries this season preventing him from playing nearly every game since he joined the club, next year under Guardiola could see De Bruyne become shortlisted for Player of the Year.
Roberto Firmino

 Joining from German club side Hoffenheim, Roberto Firmino has settled well into the Premier League. Becoming a favourite of Klopp, his 9 Premier League goals have kept Liverpool in the top half of the table. Linking with countryman Phillip Coutinho, Klopp has bags of talent at his disposal and there is no doubt Firmino will continue to feature and be a big part of the club's push for Champions League football next year.
Anthony Martial 

 Manchester United's big money signing Anthony Martial has begun to live up to his price tag. The 20-year-old is United's top goalscorer this season and proving to be a real asset to the club. The future is certainly bright for Martial and it is very likely that we will be seeing him in the Euro's for France this summer. Paying £57 million for what was a teenager is a huge risk, but the United fans are finally seeing the potential Martial has and can be very excited for next season. 
Jermain Defoe

 Sunderland's saviour Jermain Defoe may single-handedly keep them in the Premier League. His 17 Premier League goals have been crucial this season and he has continued to prove just how good a striker he still is. If Sunderland manage to survive this season, their fans can thank one man, Jermain Defoe.

The Chelsea VerdictInfo Bola Hot

The Chelsea VerdictInfo Bola Hot

After an eventful season to say the least, we got in touch with massive Chelsea fan @UberChelseaFC on twitter and got his views on the Blues' campaign so far.  We set him 10 questions and here's what he had to say:

1 - Rate the season out of 10
3, It possibly should be lower but since Christmas, the main aim after Jose was sacked was to rekindle that consistency and belief and Hiddink has achieved that.

2 - What's the main thing that's gone wrong for Chelsea this season?
The players got way too confident and arrogant believing that no one could beat them. A poor summer transfer window didn't freshen up our squad and every other team figured out how to play us. We needed new faces and a new dimension, the board didn't achieve that.


3 - Player of the season
Its a hard one because no player has really stood out for me all season. If I had to give it to anyone, it would be Willian because through the early troubles of the season, he was the only one that actually put in a shift so he gets my vote.

4 - Signing of the season
Most people would vote for Pedro but I have to give it to Kenedy. Every time he plays, a new dimension and threat is brought to the whole team. Attacking minded and decent defensively and has a bright future ahead of him.

5 - Best team performance
Arsenal away. Even though they were down to 10 men, we defended solidly and attacked with purpose. It was a brilliant result away from home and the clean sheet put the cherry on top so that gets my vote

6 - Worst team performance
Bournemouth at home. Attending the game, it was awful. Players turned up not even caring about the badge on their chest and we deserved to lose. We had plenty of chances but no desire to put them away and for me, that was the nail in the coffin of the Jose era at Stamford Bridge. Truly awful day.

7 - Worst player of the season
I would normally say Hazard BUT I am going to say Oscar. Hazard has had injuries and lack of self confidence but Oscar has been started most games this season and just been ridiculously bad. No effort going back and forth and it looks as if he is off during the summer as a result of that.

8 - Who do you most want to sign this summer? (Realistically)
Personally, I feel we need a man that is passionate about football and wants to play week in week out no matter what whilst putting in a shift so of course it's going to go to Kante. Has has a ridiculously good season for Leicester and I wouldn't mind a man like him at Chelsea.

9 - Are you happy with the appointment of Conte?
I haven't really seen much of Conte but what I do know is that he doesn't take laziness or a lack of belief well and that's what this team needs. They need a kick up the ass and put them back into shape and I believe Conte will do that. He could be the one that turns them back into Champions especially with no European distractions so it will be an interesting season for Chelsea

10 - Prediction for next season.
This season was a transition season. The club know what they need to do and the players know what they need to do and without the distraction of any European football, I believe we will be right up there pushing for the number 1 spot but we shall see. Another up and down season could be ahead but we have to look at this as a step closer to a proper club. Every club has their bad moments and the best come out with wounds but carry on fighting, that's what I want to see and hopefully we do that and have something to cheer about come May 2017.

So there you have it, a true Chelsea fan's verdict on their season! Thanks to @UberChelseaFC for getting involved with an honest and realistic account on all things Stamford Bridge!

The Top 5 New Football StadiumsInfo Bola Hot

The Top 5 New Football StadiumsInfo Bola Hot

Football is growing year on year and with this comes increased demand, so to accommodate this, clubs have been forced to develop their stadiums or even build new ones. This is becoming increasingly common so we though we'd take a look at the top 5.

Barcelona
Barca may already have one of the best stadiums in world football but they're not stopping there. Scheduled to be completed in 2021, Barcelona are renovating the Camp Nou to increase it's capacity to an enormous 105,000! Currently, only one big stand is covered by a roof but they plan to build a roof over the entire stadium to keep the noise in, although I'm sure it's just to make sure Leo Messi doesn't get abducted and taken back to his home planet!




Chelsea
Chelsea have been looking to expand now and it finally looks as though they'll get their wish. They plan to start from the beginning by demolishing Stamford Bridge and building an entirely new stadium on top. The design is interesting to say the least but it does look extremely modern and will be able to hold 60,000 fans.


Tottenham
Spurs were initially in the mix for the Olympic Stadium but they lost out to West Ham and decided to expand somewhere else. The new ground will house 61,000 fans (surely this was done on purpose by a very bitter Spurs fan to surpass the Emirates capacity?). The stadium has a more European look and Tottenham will be hoping this remains the case as they look to succeed in European competition.




Valencia
Valencia's bid to expand their stadium has not been plain-sailing. The build was initially planned to hold 74,000 but due to construction problems this has been reduced to 65,000. Despite this, it's not all doom and gloom as the new exterior looks very impressive and Gary Neville won't be managing there!



Atletico Madrid
In a rather sad story, Atletico are being forced out of the Vicente Calderon by the City of Madrid as they have reclaimed the land on which the stadium sits. Next season will be their last in the infamous build as they relocate to Madrid's Olympic Stadium instead. Although it initially held a mere 20,000, they're seriously renovating it to increase the capacity to a mighty 70,000. 


So there we have it, 5 exciting new developments in the world of football stadia! Which one is your favourite? Let us know in the comments below!

Top 5 Free Transfers This SummerInfo Bola Hot

Top 5 Free Transfers This SummerInfo Bola Hot

We're coming to the end of another season of football and clubs are beginning to think about next season. Whether they're looking to build upon a strong campaign this time out or need to completely shake the place up, clubs will be keeping an eye out for any bargains in the transfer market and the best bargain is a free one. So here at the top 5 free transfers coming up this summer as their contracts run out!

First up is none other than Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The big Swede's contract at PSG is up this summer and he has made it no secret that he won't be sticking around in Paris. Although the serial goalscorer seems to have his heart set on a move to the Premier League, I'm sure some ridiculous wages would tempt him anywhere. Ibrahimovic would undoubtedly be a great signing and could be the difference between a league title and a near miss!



Next is Manchester United's (for now) Michael Carrick. The deep-lying playmaker has been a part of the United set-up for 10 years now and looks to be moving on when his contract runs out at the end of the season. An established Premier League player, Carrick could be a decent signing for a number of clubs on a free.

Another Premier League player out of contract in the summer is Chelsea's John Terry. The defender could still be offered a short extension at Stamford Bridge but this is looking more and more unlikely. Terry isn't getting any younger but no one can doubt his ability.
Mathieu Flamini's name can be added to the list too as his contract his up this summer. The Frenchman could be on his way out of the Emirates and with so much experience behind him, I doubt he will have too much trouble finding a new club.

Martin Demichelis is another who may have to look for a new team this summer as his deal expires in June. The Argentinian has been prone to a few errors during his time at City but has also shown he can be a top-class defender on his day. Demichelis is reaching the end of his career but has another few seasons in him yet and could be a good bit of business.

Who do you think would be the best free transfer?
