This game was like a suspenseful thriller with twists and turns, causing the audience's emotions to fluctuate - initially with the wild joy of Tottenham fans, followed by the anger of Chelsea fans, and finally the despair of Tottenham fans. For a moment, it seemed as if the heart of every football fan was gripped by an invisible hand, squeezing tightly. From the start of the game, Tottenham's performance was astonishing. Their offense emerged as if from a black hole, not only quickly breaking the deadlock but also leaving Chelsea dazed within just ten minutes. In the 1st minute, a mistake by Chelsea's Cucurella on the defensive line presented Tottenham with a golden opportunity. Tottenham's Solanke quickly pounced and scored, making it 1-0. Then, in the 10th minute, Cucurella stumbled again, giving Kulusevski a great chance. He didn't hesitate to cut inside and score, putting Tottenham ahead 2-0 instantly. It was clear that Tottenham fans had already begun to envision this match as a resounding victory for them, while Chelsea fans were anxiously pacing like ants on a hot pot. Everyone started to wonder whether Chelsea, this wealthy team, could find their rhythm in the remaining time. Football is unpredictable. Although…

Former Manchester United coach reveals why Ten Hag 'insisted' on signing his £82m flop Erik ten Hag, former Manchester United manager.‌ Benni McCarthy, a former Manchester United coach, has explained why former head coach Erik ten Hag insisted on "keeping" the £82 million flop Antony.‌ Last month, Manchester United had a dismal start to the 2024/25 season, ranking 14th in the Premier League, leading to ten Hag's dismissal.‌ The Dutchman achieved success in his first season at Manchester United but performed poorly in the 2023/24 season, with the team finishing eighth in the Premier League.‌ Ten Hag retained his position after winning the FA Cup last season, but the decision by INEOS to keep the head coach was quickly proven foolish as their struggles in the 2023/24 season continued into the start of this season.‌ The former Ajax boss failed in several key areas, as he was unable to implement a clear playing style and the team made several poor signings.‌ Antony, who joined Manchester United for an initial transfer fee of £82 million in the same summer as ten Hag, has become one of the worst signings in Manchester United's history because his value has fallen far short of expectations.‌ After Ruben Amorim joined, Manchester United made some positive progress, but due to losing four out of nine games in all competitions, the team ranked 13th in the Premier League.‌ McCarthy, who worked with ten Hag at Manchester United, revealed the reason why the head coach "insisted on playing Antony."‌ ‌"Tactically, when we were making plans, the head coach…

According to Fichajes.net, Arsenal is interested in signing Marcus Thuram from Inter Milan in January 2025. Prior to this, the Gunners have lacked a natural finisher in their attacking line this season. The Frenchman joined Inter Milan on a free transfer from Borussia Mönchengladbach in July 2023 and has become a regular for the Serie A giants. This season, Thuram has been impressive in attack, scoring 13 goals and providing 6 assists in 21 games. His offensive talent has not gone unnoticed, as the Gunners hope to sign him to strengthen the center-forward position. The Frenchman can play as a striker and on the left wing when needed. Therefore, his versatility can alleviate Arteta's firepower and flexible tactics in attack. The report claims that the Gunners currently lack the presence of a lethal finisher due to Kayo's injury. It is believed that if Thuram is signed, he can enter the attack and improve scoring ability. Due to their excellent start to the season in Serie A and the Champions League, Inter Milan may be reluctant to sell Thuram. However, a lucrative offer could help convince them to part with the Frenchman. Thuram's contract with Inter Milan expires in June 2028, and the transfer market values him at 75 million euros. "It's hard to find a stronger player than him in the league" - Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta praised Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka in this way. Arteta praised winger Saka for his outstanding performance after becoming a regular at the Emirates. Saka has become one of the game-changing players in…

In an interview with Amazon Prime ahead of the match against Everton, Pep Guardiola admitted that Manchester City need to sign players in January. Guardiola said: "If possible, we must bring in new signings, definitely, definitely. We are struggling at the moment, especially in defense and midfield positions. I believe the team has to buy new players, but I don't know what will happen. The winter transfer window is not easy, everyone understands. Even the players are asking 'Will we buy anyone?!'" Antony's agent, Pedroso, told GIVEMESPORT that many clubs are interested in signing his client in January. Pedroso said: "Yes, many clubs have contacted us about signing Antony in January. These teams want to understand Antony's situation, so I can confirm that there is indeed substantial interest. To be honest, Manchester United has never expressed a plan to sell or loan out Antony to us, we haven't received such information. It can be said that Antony's future is closely related to the interests of Manchester United. If the club thinks it would be good to loan him out for training next month, then we will discuss this possibility together. Otherwise, Antony will strive to compete for his position under the new coach Amorim." In an interview with Amazon Prime, Van Dijk stated that he can maintain his peak form for another 3-4 years, with his contract expiring next year. The Liverpool captain said: "I love this club, the club loves me, I love the fans here, and the fans love me, which is a very good foundation for success.…

When a coach hailed as a "legend" in the football world repeatedly declines invitations from top clubs, what lies behind this? Is it a protection of his own status or disdain for the current state of certain teams? Zinedine Zidane's "indifferent attitude" towards Manchester United has once again sparked heated discussions. Why can't the "Red Devils" attract this "triple crown" coach? Zidane, who wrote history with three consecutive Champions League titles at Real Madrid, is considered one of the few "legendary coaches" in the football world. His brilliant record as both a player and a coach has made countless clubs eager to have him. However, since leaving Real Madrid in 2021, he has not accepted any coaching invitations. Manchester United, as a traditional powerhouse in the Premier League, has experienced frequent changes in managers in recent years. Whether it was Mourinho, Solskjaer, or Ten Hag, none of them were able to bring about a true revival for the team. Naturally, Zidane became a multiple-time target for Manchester United. As early as the Mourinho era, Manchester United extended an olive branch to Zidane, and in recent years, they have repeatedly hoped to invite him back to the coaching bench. However, each invitation was rejected by Zizou. Zidane's disinterest in coaching Manchester United has never changed. He once privately revealed that he places great importance on the triple crown legend he created at Real Madrid and is unwilling to risk coaching a team in chaos, which could potentially ruin his coaching reputation. The current state of Manchester United is obviously one of…

The Christmas matches in the Premier League have arrived, with several top teams' performances drawing attention. Liverpool defeated Leicester City 3-1 in the 18th round, while title contenders Chelsea lost 1-2 to Fulham. Additionally, Manchester City drew 1-1 with Everton, Tottenham lost 0-1 to Nottingham Forest, and Manchester United suffered a 0-2 defeat against Wolverhampton Wanderers. This season's Premier League standings have become chaotic, with Italian giants Juventus letting go of one player, which has also affected the Premier League landscape to some extent. Juventus took a significant loss by selling their top central defender for 15.2 million euros, who is now shining in the Premier League and has become the core of his new team's defense. In the latest Premier League standings, Liverpool tops the table with 42 points from 17 rounds, followed by Chelsea with 35 points from 18 rounds, Nottingham Forest with 34 points from 18 rounds, and Arsenal with 33 points from 17 rounds, ranking second to fourth. Newcastle and Bournemouth both have 29 points from 18 rounds, ranking fifth and sixth. Manchester City, Fulham, and Aston Villa all have 28 points from 18 rounds, ranking seventh to ninth. Furthermore, Tottenham has 23 points from 18 rounds, ranking 11th, and Manchester United has 22 points from 18 rounds, ranking 14th. Nottingham Forest and Bournemouth are two dark horses in this season's Premier League. The former finished 17th last season, while the latter finished 12th, both showing significant improvement this season. In the latest round, Bournemouth drew 0-0 at home against Crystal Palace. In this match, Bournemouth's…

On December 27th, in the Premier League Boxing Day fixture, Manchester United faced off against Wolverhampton Wanderers away from home. Bruno Fernandes' red card changed the course of the game, leaving United with ten men after the 47th minute. They ultimately lost the match while playing a man down. Wolves player Cunha scored one goal and provided one assist, directly scoring from a corner kick and then assisting Hwang Hee-chan's goal. The defeat to Wolves, with a scoreline of 0-2, has made it clear to Amorim that the £55 million new star is lazier than Rashford, having played 15 games without scoring or assisting any goals. Last season, Manchester United finished 8th in the Premier League, and this season they are likely to rank even lower. Currently, United has only managed 6 wins, 4 draws, and 8 losses in 18 Premier League matches, accumulating 22 points and sitting in 14th place, which is the seventh from the bottom, with an 8-point lead over the relegation zone. Despite having a squad value of 790 million euros, placing them among the top in the league, their league position is disappointingly low. There are several high-priced but underperforming players in the United squad, whose individual abilities do not match their market value. These include Marcus Rashford and Joao Felix at 55 million euros, Garnacho at 50 million, and Menu among others. Menu, who shares the same valuation as Rashford, also seems overpriced. In the match against Wolves, Menu started and was substituted after 63 minutes. He had 3 key passes and 1 tackle,…

After Manchester United's 0-2 loss to Wolverhampton Wanderers, coach Ruben Amorim's actions at Molineux Stadium sparked transfer rumors. The 39-year-old Portuguese coach entered the field and embraced Matheus Cunha, the opposing team's core player who had one assist and one goal in the match, playing the role of a nemesis for the Red Devils. United's failure to neutralize Cunha was a key reason for their defeat; he scored directly from a corner kick to open the scoring and assisted Hwang Hee-chan in stoppage time to secure the win. Interestingly, Cunha has long been rumored as a potential target for United, with the 25-year-old former Atletico Madrid player previously linked with a move to Old Trafford. If Cunha were to transfer to United, he could play as a center forward or one of the two number 10 positions in Amorim's 3-4-3 formation, potentially replacing Bruno Fernandes, who has faced criticism over the past two years. The 30-year-old B Fee renewed his contract this summer for a weekly salary of 300,000 pounds, only to fall victim to the curse of United stars whose performance declines after a pay raise. In addition to Cunha, United has also been linked with Barcelona's Dani Olmo this week, who is facing registration issues in the new year. If Barcelona cannot register him, Olmo could be available for a free transfer. His agent, Andy Bara, is reportedly in Manchester and watched the City vs Everton game. Should this situation occur, United would consider signing Olmo, but there is one problem: the team's current poor form means the…
