The Arsenal FA Cup 2014 - 2015 run is coming to a close, on May 30th, they will face off against Aston Villa in the championship match for the title of Champion. Should the Gunners win the game-which they are strongly favored to do-they will not only have clinched their second consecutive FA Cup victory, but they will have also set a new record in the annals of the long-standing football tournament. Right now, both Arsenal and Manchester United have won the Football Association event on 11 previous occasions. Last year, the Gunners tied the record by beating out Hull City in the final match; this year, the soccer club has the chance to break the record, and to become the most successful team in FA Cup history.

By no means have Tottenham Hotspur had a bad season. They are likely to finish in sixth place on the Premier League table for 2014 2015-the same slot they occupied last year-and have scored more goals along the way. They even managed a marquis 5-3 victory over Chelsea on New Year's Day, a fireworks spectacle of a match that will stand as one of the most definitive contests of the entire 2014 2015 campaign.
However, despite the progress that new manager Mauricio Pochettino has made this season, the Spurs still have many of the same woes they had 12 months ago. For instance, they didn't get any closer to qualifying for the Champions League, were eliminated from the Europa League in the round of 32, bowed out of the FA Cup early, and lost the League Cup final to Chelsea. In other words, the wearers of the Tottenham Hotspur away jersey 2014 2015 got close to greatness plenty of times, but have mostly watched it elude them.
With that in mind, we put together a list of - May 19, 2015

Didier Drogba Player Profile Vital Stats:
Height: Six feet, two inches
Age: 37 years
Native Country: Ivory Coast
Current Club: Chelsea FC
Tall, talented, and resilient, Didier Drogba has been a consistent presence in the professional association football world for the better part of two decades now. After a low-scoring season at Chelsea FC, though, it looks like Drogba's lengthy and impressive senior career could finally be drawing to a close. With his contract at Chelsea expiring, and no real rumors or speculation about where he could end up next year, it's unclear right now whether Didier is considering retirement or looking to do a brief stint at a less high-profile club before closing the curtain on his senior career. One thing does seem certain, though, and it's that Didier won't wear the Chelsea jersey again after this year.

Slots three and four have remained more of a mystery in recent weeks, with the Manchester United V Arsenal fixture an opportunity for both sides to claim the coveted third podium position (and perhaps even shoot for Manchester City's runner-up spot). But on Sunday, Man United more or less blew their final opportunity at pushing into the top three, with a 1-1 draw against Arsenal.
The Pre-Match Situation

Memphis Depay led PSV Eindhoven to a title in the Dutch Eredivisie this year, netting 22 goals in league and 28 overall to become the football club's leading scorer. From the looks of it, though, Depay will be trading his PSV jersey for a Man Utd shirt next year. Reports suggest that Manchester United sign Memphis Depay, and have agreed to pay £31 million for the young Dutch winger. Depay, of course, has played under Man United manager Louis van Gaal as part of the Netherlands national soccer team-something that should make him a natural fit at Old Trafford.
Are you excited about the transfer? Are you ready to welcome the talented and promising Depay to the English Premier League for the next stage of his already impressive career?
