Manchester City team news and Erling Haaland injury update ahead of Everton’s trip to the Etihad Stadium on New Year’s Eve. Pep Guardiola has revealed that Julian Alvarez will not be available for Manchester City’s clash against Everton. The Toffees sit just one point and one place above the Premier League relegation zone ahead of the trip to the Etihad Stadium. And after four successive defeats, most recently a 2-1 loss to Wolves, things don’t get any easier as they prepare to face the current champions. City delivered a 3-1 victory over Leeds United on Thursday night as they kept…

Latest Wolves transfer news from BirminghamLive brings you Manchester City’s reported interest in Rayan Ait Nouri Rayan Ait-Nouri in action for Wolverhampton Wanderers Manchester City reportedly see Wolverhampton Wanderers’ star Rayan Ait-Nouri as a ‘plausible target’ to resolve their left-back problems. The reigning champions looked at the Frenchman late in the summer, after their approach to sign Chelsea’s Marc Cucurella fell through. Meanwhile, Sergio Gomez who City signed instead is ‘not fully trusted to start games yet’ according to The Athletic. Pep Guardiola is apparently keen to bring in another player to add depth to his squad and Ait-Nouri remains a potential target.…

Jurgen Klopp believes Darwin Nunez’s tough start to life at Liverpool mirrors that of Robert Lewandowski’s at Borussia Dortmund. Over the summer, Nunez moved to Anfield from Benfica in a deal that could rise to a club-record £85million, but so far he has struggled to live up to that price tag. While nine goals and four assists in 20 appearances is not a bad return, the striker has been criticised for missing big chances, particularly in the recent defeat to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup. It may be early days but some have been quick to label the 23-year-old a flop, but Klopp…

Liverpool star Roberto Firmino shares injury update ahead of Leicester City fixture Roberto Firmino, who has seen himself sidelined ever since the season restart, is currently edging closer to a return and will certainly bolster the Liverpool attack on his return. A calf injury sustained in training has seen him out for so long, and the Reds’ #9 spoke about his return to action. Speaking to talkSPORT, the former Hoffenheim striker was optimistic about returning to action soon and even though he is not in contention to face Leicester City on New Year’s Eve, he could be back in the…

Liverpool have reportedly opened talks with Brighton & Hove Albion for midfielder Moises Caicedo. The Reds have already bolstered Jurgen Klopp’s squad days ahead of the January window officially opening by securing the services of Cody Gakpo. An agreement has been reached with PSV that will see the Dutch forward become a Liverpool player on January 1. It doesn’t look as if the club are finished there, though, with significant news emerging on Caicedo. Journalist Rudy Galetti took to Twitter to relay news regarding the Reds opening talks with Brighton for Caicedo on Thursday evening. He added that an enquiry…

One Manchester United new summer recruit whose initial contributions have been swept under the carpet in recent weeks is Tyrell Malacia. The Dutchman’s arrival was not filled with the usual hype and it happened so fast that fans were left in shock. But the full-back from Feyenoord was a specific request from Erik ten Hag who was a big admirer from his Ajax days. And while his start was slow, he soon showed his ability on the pitch and made five straight starts in the Premier League following Luke Shaw‘s horror show in the opening two games. But a disappointing…

There is plenty of cautious optimism emanating from the Manchester United faithful right now, with the appointment of Erik ten Hag at the helm earlier this year a big step in the direction of stability and greener pastures over the horizon. However, reports stemming from last month state that the Glazer family are open to discussion regarding the sale of Man United. There has been friction between the club and the fanbase in this regard for some time, with the situation teetering on untenable, illustrated by protests against the prestigious outfit’s ownership and wayward direction. Consequently, according to the Daily…

Manchester United have been linked with a move for Enzo Fernandez in the new year, and now a new update has emerged on the club’s competition for the player’s signature. According to Portuguese news outlet O Jogo, the Red Devils are set to intensify talks to sign the Argentina and Benfica midfielder. As per the report, Man United are not alone in their aggressive pursuit to sign Fernandez in January with bitter Premier League rivals Liverpool also set to hold further talks to secure the World Cup winner’s signature. It’d be a major coup After missing out on their target Cody Gakpo to the Merseysiders earlier this week, Manchester United will surely be doing…

Champions Manchester City predictably proved too good for Leeds United as Premier League action returned to Elland Road – and it was their Leeds-born striker that just as predictably did much of the damage. Erling Haaland’s first game at the ground of the team he has supported since his early upbringing in the city saw him score twice in a 3-1 win and he would have left with the match ball and another three goals had it not been for the heroics of goalkeeper Illan Meslier. The rising superstar of world football was given the rare honour of being applauded…

Roberto Firmino could leave Liverpool post the signing of Cody Gakpo Liverpool’s options in attack are pretty much stacked until the summer as the timely arrival of Cody Gakpo now means that the team at least has one uninjured left-winger. However, one of Liverpool’s forwards runs out of contract next summer and there is no official news on an extension yet. The Reds’ #9 Roberto Firmino is out of contract in June 2023 (Transfermarkt), and following the signing of Gakpo, Bobby might see himself pushed further down the pecking order which is not an ideal situation for a player of his quality.…

Casemiro was Manchester United’s man of the match in the win over Nottingham Forest and rightly took the plaudits. The Brazilian was outstanding, along with Marcus Rashford, who was hailed as ‘unstoppable’ by Erik ten Hag. One player who was a little overshadowed amid the outpouring of praise, was Christian Eriksen. The Dane provided a smart assist for Rashford’s opening goal of the game, with a corner-kick routine playing out to perfection. Eriksen is putting up impressive assist numbers Eriksen has quickly shaken off his World Cup disappointment, with a goal against Burnley and an assist against Nottingham Forest. His whole performance against Forest…

Bought when he was one of the most promising young stars by then-manager Louis van Gaal, Luke Shaw was always destined for the very top. A double leg break and some initial hiccups later, it finally seemed like the England man’s time had come. But a rocky relationship with Jose Mourinho ensued and at that time, a departure seemed highly likely. It seemed like the young defender would leave Old Trafford without having come close to fulfilling his enormous potential. But a resounding comeback and some decent displays under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer later, the main problem holding back the 27-year-old emerged — Shaw himself. It had become…

Sea turtles are among the most beautiful and peaceful animals on earth. They drift through the ocean with elegance and tranquility. For many who swim or scuba dive in the ocean, encountering a sea turtle is one of the most memorable experiences ever. To share the reef with them for a few minutes on their own terms is a magical experience. Occasionally, scuba divers may encounter a turtle grabbing a snooze on the coral or on the sea floor. A full grown sea turtle has only a few predators and they will rest on the ocean bottom with confidence, even…

Scientists have uncovered a rare find at the deepest point off Australia’s coast, which offers a remarkable glimpse into an unknown world. A group of scientists have landed the deepest fish ever caught off Australia’s coast. The team reeled in two unknown and possibly as yet undiscovered species of snailfish from a depth of 6177m, roughly 370 kilometres off the coast of Perth. It was part of a study by the newly formed Minderoo and University of Western Australia (UWA) Deep Sea Research Centre. Going by the saying: “If it ain’t broke don’t fix it”, the team used a yabby…

A rare Greenland shark that washed up on a U.K. beach could be at least 100 years old, but experts aren’t sure why it became stranded. The dead shark was first spotted on the sand in Newlyn Harbour, Cornwall, on the southwest coast of England, on March 13. But before experts could examine it, the tide came in and took the carcass back out to sea, according to Cornwall Wildlife Trust(opens in new tab) Twitter posts. The shark was then rediscovered floating off the coast of Cornwall on March 15 by a recreational boating company called Mermaid Pleasure Trips and was brought back to…

It’s one of the world’s last remaining prehistoric rainforests and it’s the most peaceful, mystical forest we’ve ever set foot in, with tons of hiking options to choose from.

The forest is dense, verdant and wild. The Whirinaki Forest is home to towering old-growth native trees, namely tōtara, kahikatea, mataī, miro and rimu. Some of these trees are…

The Rosamond Gifford Zoo in Syracuse, New York, has welcomed not one, but two new bundles of joy. The Asian elephant twins were born on October 24 to parents Mali and Doc, according to a news release from the zoo. The birth of twins was a shock for zoo staff, according to the release. Less than 1% of elephant births are twins – and when twins are born, they rarely survive. The first baby was born at around 2 a.m., weighing in at 220 pounds, says the release. Then, 10 hours later, Mali delivered a second male calf, much to the surprise…

Leopards are typically found living in trees. The tree is a much safer location for them than the ground. And because they have good balance, they can ғɪɢʜᴛ in the trees without too much difficulty because they don’t let themselves fall from the tree during intense battles. Of course, there is another species in the trees that the leopard cannot defeat. Compared to the leopard, this animal is more vicious, aggressive, and sᴋɪʟʟed at ғɪɢʜᴛing in trees. Since that time, they have refused to let any other animals share this secure refuge with them. That is the baboon. Sometimes baboons…

A group of researchers stumbled upon a grisly scene during a field study in Macedonia last year: a dead nose-horned viper with a centipede’s head sticking out of its ruptured abdomen. After a post-mortem, the scientists think it’s possible that the centipede quite literally eviscerated the snake from the inside out. “All of us were astonished, as nobody has ever seen something like this,” Ljiljana Tomović, a herpetologist at the University of Belgrade, told Live Science in an email. [Amazing Images of Snakes Around the World] Tomović and colleagues were tagging reptiles on May 14, 2013, on Macedonia’s Golem Grad, a 44-acre (18 hectares)…

Luckily, the baby elephant was rescued by its mother, whose maternal instincts kicked in. Elephants are just one of many animals that display maternal instincts to protect their young from predators and harm. Read on to know the full details of the encounter between the crocodile and the elephants. Mother Elephant Stomps on Crocodile Preying on Its Calf Mothers are always…
