After going on loan to Real Betis, Manchester United winger Antony has spoken out about a possible permanent move away from the team. In the January transfer window, the Brazilian, who paid £86 million to join United in 2022, finished a six-month loan to the Spanish team. His status as an outcast player was highlighted by the fact that he had only started one Europa League game and none in the Premier League prior to that. His 96-game total of 12 goals and 5 assists was an astonishing return on an amazing investment. He was connected to a permanent and…

After leaving his sphere of influence at Sporting in November, Ruben Amorim has had nothing short of a nightmarish start to his reign at Manchester United. With only 29 points, 28 goals, and a -6 goal differential from 24 games, United is sagging in 13th place in the Premier League. In his first 13 league games as manager, Amorim has experienced seven defeats, which is more than in his final 75 games as Sporting manager. After a respectable draw against Liverpool, United appeared to be turning things around when they eliminated Arsenal from the FA Cup at the Emirates Stadium.…
Similar to his predecessor Erik ten Hag the previous season, Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim has had difficulty at the left wingback position. Luke Shaw is still out, and the Portuguese would be foolish to have too much faith in him considering his dismal injury record. After a rough one-and-half years, Tyrell Malacia has left for PSV Eindhoven on loan. Patrick Dorgu is anticipated to take over starting Friday’s FA Cup match against Leicester City after the experiment with using Diogo Dalot as a temporary left wingback failed horribly. However, Amorim is also watching for young players through the…
It is an incredibly proud moment for Nottingham Forest to have the City Ground being lined up to host an England international fixture. And perhaps further down the line, more such prestigious occasions will follow. When the stadium redevelopment is eventually completed, there is no reason why it cannot open plenty of other similar doors for the Red Details are still being finalised for Thomas Tuchel’s Three Lions to play Senegal in a friendly on the banks of the Trent on June 10. If all goes to plan, it would be the first time the City Ground has hosted an…
Newcastle United’s game plan started long before the game kicked off with an elaborate warm-up act catching out Mikel Arteta Gary Neville was caught napping by Newcastle United’s tactics in the Carabao Cup shoot out against Arsenal. The former England and Manchester United star was working as a pundit for Sky Sports and made a note of Newcastle’s warm-up as Kieran Trippier, Fabian Schar, Sven Botman and Dan Burn, as a left-back, acted out a fake warm-up exercise. But when the teams emerged for the game, Newcastle instead lined up with a five-man defensive rearguard that included Lewis Hall as…
Liverpool go into the Carabao Cup semi final one goal behind Tottenham and Gary Neville does not think that the Reds can make it to Wembley. Asked to predict how the match will pan out on The Overlap US, the 49-year-old said: “I think Tottenham. I think Tottenham are going to get a draw. “I don’t know how they’re going to get a draw at Anfield, but I feel like it’s going to be an emotional, mad night where something happens.” “Postecoglou said earlier on in the season… I’m maybe not hanging my hat on what he’s saying entirely, but…
The story of deadline day for Leeds United was whether they could persuade Southampton to approve a loan move for Cameron Archer, which they ultimately failed to do. The £15 million Southampton striker was strongly linked with a move to Leeds United during the January transfer window, and the club made a loan approach to sign Archer. However, Southampton turned it down because they wanted to keep him. It saw Leeds fail to sign a single player, losing Joe Gelhardt to Hull City and Charlie Crew to Doncaster Rovers. Real Betis saw a £10m bid rejected for Mateo Joseph, with…
Leeds United should have made things much easier for themselves with a 2-0 victory over Coventry City, a scoreline that was extremely flattering to the home side. Frank Lampard’s Coventry City looked like a tough test for Leeds this week, with four consecutive league wins behind them and the playoffs in sight. Daniel Farke’s team, meanwhile, hoped to prolong their unbeaten streak with a positive outcome. Leeds defeat Coventry 2-0, but could have made it much more pleasant. Joel Piroe and Jayden Bogle scored in the first half to put Leeds two up before the half-hour mark, capitalizing on their…
Burnley and Sheffield United, the promotion rivals, are now five points behind Leeds. Leeds United are currently at the top of the Championship. The Whites took another step closer to promotion with a win against play-off contenders Coventry City Friday night. A 13-game unbeaten league run has left the Whites in charge of their own destiny. They are five points ahead of Burnley and Sheffield United in the race for promotion. Their success has been based on a solid defence. Daniel Farke’s team has kept an astounding 19 clean sheets in 31 games. Much-maligned goalkeeper Illan Meslier made two important…
Barry Ferguson believes Cyriel Dessers’ performance for Rangers against Union Saint-Gilloise last month was “exceptional” and expressed his satisfaction that the Nigerian will remain at Ibrox for the time being. The striker has been linked with a move away from Rangers since the summer transfer season, with speculations intensifying as the winter window neared its end. No advances were made, and the Germans chose to maintain their talisman for the time being. Ferguson spoke on the Go Radio Football Show (5 February) on the Rangers’ decision to sign Dessers. “Well certainly the past couple of weeks, he’s been in really…
