Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag could be without Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof for his team’s Premier League fixture against Wolves at Molineux due to illness. Manchester United wonderkid Rhys Bennett could be given the nod for the Premier League game against Wolves on Saturday. Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag is facing a selection dilemma at centre-back due to the impact of the World Cup. He was forced to start Luke Shaw in the unfamiliar role against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday due to the unavailability of Lisandro Martinez. The Argentine is expected to be available to play at Molineux, although there are still doubts over Harry Maguire and Victor Lindelof due to an illness sweeping through the…

Manchester United star Jadon Sancho isn’t currently involved in the action at Old Trafford. With Manchester United failing to sign Cody Gakpo, and looking unlikely to sign a new forward at the current moment in time, Jadon Sancho could be given a lifeline at the club. The England international has recently returned to action after Erik ten Hag deemed him not physically or mentally capable of playing for the club. But, when he graces the field again, a starring role may beckon… Manchester United expected big things from Sancho when they signed him back in the summer transfer window of 2021 after a four-year pursuit. Jose…

According to CBS, Ronaldo has signed a deal in the range of £172million, despite previously expressing his ambition to play in the Champions League once again in his career.…

Chelsea are seriously interested in signing Enzo Fernandez from Benfica in the January transfer window and are willing to pay the £105million release clause in his deal. It’s not even January yet and Chelsea are already conducting plenty of business behind the scenes. David Datro Fofana was confirmed as the Blues’ first signing of the window earlier in the week and the club are wasting no time in bringing their second player in. Chelsea are now working tirelessly in their efforts to sign Enzo Fernandez from Benfica. The west Londoners and the Portuguese club are locked in talks over the 21-year-old midfielder, who…

Chelsea have reportedly made strong progress in talks with French midfielder N’Golo Kante over a new contract. The 31-year-old now has just over six months left to run on his current deal and will be able to enter discussions with foreign clubs over a pre-contract agreement in January. Kante’s consistent struggles for fitness over the past couple of years have plunged his future into uncertainty, and Barcelona are believed to be mounting a charge to sign him next year. A recent report claimed that the France international was pushing for the Blaugrana to offer him a contract, while Saudi Arabian giants Al-Nassr are also said to be interested…

Frank Lampard has revealed that he tried to sign in-form star Erling Haaland during his tenure in charge of Chelsea three years ago. Haaland – who signed for Manchester City in the summer – has been a revelation since arriving in England and has already reached 20 Premier League goals before the new year. However, things could’ve been very different – Lampard revealed – as he lifted the lid on Chelsea’s attempts to lure the Norwegian talisman to Stamford Bridge in 2019. The City striker has settled extremely quickly in England and Lampard put that down to the player being able to perform at a ‘top level’…

Manchester City were not expecting to include Julian Alvarez in their squad against Everton but he could now be an option off the bench. Julian Alvarez trained with Manchester City on Friday ahead of their Premier League game with Everton after returning earlier than expected from Argentina. Alvarez had been given time off to celebrate after his role in their World Cup victory in Qatar less than a fortnight ago. The young forward was set to return in the New Year, with Pep Guardiola giving that timescale in his pre-match press conference. However, Alvarez then trained with the group later that afternoon after returning to Manchester earlier…

Pep Guardiola has defended Jack Grealish’s form and says the playmaker ‘doesn’t need goals’ to succeed at the club. The England international came under fire following City’s 3-1 win at leeds United for passing up a number of opportunities in front of goal. Grealish managed just six goals in 39 appearances in all competitions during his debut season at City following a £100m move from Aston Villa. The midfielder has just one goal to his name so far this term and his influence on the side is not what it was when he captained Villa. But, despite criticism, Grealish did provide two…

Kevin de Bruyne has been voted ahead of Paul Scholes, Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard as the best midfielder in the Premier League’s history. Back in May 2022, De Bruyne produced one of the all-time great individual performances, as he scored four times in Manchester City’s win over Wolves. The Belgian midfielder’s hat-trick was completed in 17 first half minutes, which helped Pep Guardiola’s side take a giant step towards Premier League glory. City ended up being crowned champions after a dramatic final-day comeback victory against Aston Villa. De Bruyne’s performances during the 21/22 season have led to comparisons to the legendary…

The Good, Bad and Ugly: Liverpool beat Leicester in odd fashion. Mohamed Salah and Darwin Núñez spurned chances, but one ‘weakness’ never materialised at Anfield. Liverpool have moved to within two points of the Champions League places thanks to a triumph in bizarre circumstances, with two own goals proving sufficient. Yet more woe in front of goal for Darwin Núñez went unpunished as Jürgen Klopp’s side extended a fledgling winning streak. Mohamed Salah, too, missed at least one very presentable opportunity, with the visiting defence proving the most adept at putting the ball in the back of the net. But…

Liverpool moved within two points of the Champions League placed with a vital, but somewhat unconvincing, 2-1 home victory against Brendan Rodgers’ inconsistent Foxes. A shocking brace of own goals from Leicester City defender Wout Faes gifted Liverpool their fourth consecutive Premier League victory. Leicester did begin the game in excellent fashion, as Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall took advantage of a comical miscommunication in the Liverpool back four to sweep the Foxes into a surprise fifth minute lead. Unfortunately, it was cancelled out by Brendan Rodgers’ summer signing who swiped at a low cross from Trent Alexander-Arnold and sent the ball spinning over his…

Liverpool’s defensive woes showed no sign of improvement as they parted like the Red Sea to gift Leicester’s Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall the opening goal inside five minutes at Anfield. Liverpool were slammed for their “schoolboy defending” after Leicester breached their defence to take the lead at Anfield. The Reds fell behind inside five minutes of the Premier League clash on Friday (December 30) evening with Foxes midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall making the most of a massive gap in their backline to race in and score past Alisson. Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher called out his former side’s defenders for gifting the visitors the lead. He said on…

Margot Robbie’s latest film, Babylon, has failed to meet expectations after grossing a mere $3.5 million domestically since its release on December 23. The film, also starring Brad Pitt, Tobey Maguire, Olivia Wilde, marks her second box office flop after her period comedy thriller, Amsterdam, was panned by critics. By Monday, TMZ reported that industry experts are predicting that it will take home $5.3 million, which is definitely a disappointing opening weekend. The three-hour-and-nine-minute flick, which had a budget of over $79 million, takes place before the Hays Code was introduced in 1930, prohibiting profanity, nudity, drug use, sexual ‘perversion,’ inter-racial relationships and much more on screen. The film boasts an…

Trent Alexander-Arnold handled ‘biggest talent’ threat for Liverpool as Jürgen Klopp gets boost. Liverpool’s 2-1 win against Leicester was a game high on octane and less so on quality. Liverpool’s two goals, courtesy of two comical Wout Faes moments, sealed the three points for Jürgen Klopp and continued the Reds’ climb up the table. They now sit in sixth place, only two points behind Tottenham in fourth. The win over The Foxes won’t go down in the annals as one of the finest performances under Klopp, but a win was secured and that’s all that matters in the end. Yet one of the…

Erling Haaland’s staggering goalscoring exploits have major bookmakers fearing huge losses on him this season. The Manchester City striker has raced to 20 Premier League goals during his debut campaign, reaching the landmark in just 14 appearances since a summer move from Borussia Dortmund. Punters with Sky Bet backed him to double that tally before a ball was even kicked, with several hundred bets placed at 250/1 for the Norwegian to net 40 or more times. Odds came down to 150/1 as the market generated more interest, with the price then tumbling to 6/5 as Haaland’s stunning start to life in England continued. The windfall…

The Blues are trying to react after a poor spell before the Premier League break for the World Cup but it could be too little, too late for Graham Potter and his side. Bernardo Silva has said Chelsea are a long way behind pacesetters Arsenal and Manchester City this season as Graham Potter’s side attempts to make a serious challenge for the top four. Having lost four of their last five league games heading into the domestic break, the Blues dropped off the pace. A 2-0 win against Bournemouth at Stamford Bridge proved to be the perfect return – other than Reece…

No matter who you are, there are two things about Marvel Cinematic Universe that can’t be denied. One of them is the fact that MCU is the true king of the box office and the other is the presence of the most appealing and adorable characters in the franchise.

Manchester City are reportedly a big fan of Portugal’s forward. Manchester City are reportedly preparing an audacious swap deal with AC Milan in order to secure the services of Rafael Leao. Leao has shone at Milan this season scoring seven goals and grabbing nine assists in 20 appearances for the Italian giants. The 23-year-old’s appearances were limited to cameos off the bench at the World Cup but that did not stop him making an impact against Ghana and Switzerland. Pep Guardiola is thought to be a big fan of the winger and according to Calciomercato, he is set to offer Jack Grealish…
