Premier League Upset Night: All 3 Big Clubs Lose, Manchester United Suffers 3 Consecutive Defeats! Manchester City Sensation, Liverpool's Title Win Seems Certain Introduction: The "Black Christmas" of Premier League giants, who will fall from the throne? After Christmas, the Premier League arena should have been a time for various strong teams to continue their competition, but unexpectedly, there was a collective "upset" drama! Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Manchester City, these four Premier League giants all lost on the same match day, which surprised many people. Liverpool became the biggest winner in this chaos, and the suspense of the championship seemed to disappear overnight. What exactly happened behind this "Black Christmas" of the Premier League giants? Let's uncover the mysterious veil together! Manchester United 0-2 Wolves: Red Devils in relegation zone crisis! Exciting subheading: B fee red, Manchester United less than one person was washed by the Wolves! At the beginning of the game, Manchester United and Wolves were still fighting back and forth, but no one expected that in the second half, B fee's impulsive foul directly turned two yellow cards into one red card and was sent off. Manchester United instantly fell into a passive state, while Wolves seized the opportunity and took the lead with a goal from Cunha. Manchester United coach Amorim made several substitutions, but still could not change the defeat. In the last minute of the game, Cunha sent another assist, and Huang Xican sealed the deal, and Manchester United suffered a 0-2 defeat! This defeat caused Manchester United to suffer three…

During the first half of the game, at the 33rd minute, Zirkzee was substituted and rushed straight to the locker room. He later returned to the bench wearing a coat. Eager to showcase his skills in front of the home fans, he unexpectedly ended up retreating in disarray, with his frustration clearly visible on his face. Players who perform poorly can seek solace on the bench, but Amorim had to remain on the sidelines, enduring the scorching gaze of angry fans as the price for his tactical blunder. In the first 20 minutes of the match, Newcastle entered the penalty area 10 times, scoring 2 goals from 5 shots, while Manchester United never penetrated their opponent's penalty area during this period, appearing very passive on the field. Through strong confrontations to gain possession, they patiently organized outside the Red Devils' defense, with hardly any hindrance in continuous lateral passes, completing crosses in front of the helpless red-clad wing-backs, ultimately sounding an air raid alarm over Lisandro Martinez... The two goals scored by Newcastle followed the same process, with Eddie Howe's offensive tactics perfectly exploiting Manchester United's weaknesses, and Amorim's rotation decisions fell right into their hands. Since the big win against Everton, Manchester United has been plagued by misfortune in multiple consecutive matches. In the Manchester derby, there were incidents of key players leaving early and own-goal assists, and when visiting Molineux, they received a red card for "helping teammates win." Vitor Pereira sincerely thanked the Red Devils for their "gift" in the post-match interview last round, expressing pity for…

Translation of the article content into English: If La Liga's Real Betis sells Aserane Diao to Como, Manchester United winger Antony may transfer to the team in the coming days. The Red Devils hope that these two chain-reaction transactions can be successfully concluded, which will greatly improve the club's financial situation. The Brazilian winger, who cost 100 million euros, has been on the fringes of the Red Devils for the past two seasons. Despite changes in head coaches, his situation has not improved. After the halfway point, he has never started in the Premier League, and Ten Hag, Van Nistelrooy, and Amorim share the same view of him. Among them, since the appointment of the 39-year-old Amorim, Antony has been a substitute who only comes on at the end of the game. After joining Manchester United from Ajax, Antony has played 94 games in all competitions, scoring 12 goals and contributing 5 assists. The 24-year-old Brazilian winger lacks the necessary speed, dribbling, and crossing abilities for the Premier League, is insufficient defensively when playing as a wing-back, and is unwilling to play as a left-back. Recent rumors suggest that Betis wants to loan Antony, but whether an agreement can be reached may depend on whether the 19-year-old Spanish forward Diao leaves in the winter window. According to Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Betis is about to sell Diao to Como in Serie A for 9.1 million pounds, and the funds from this transaction may pave the way for Antony's future involvement. Whether a loan agreement can be reached may depend…

From the current situation of Manchester United, if they want to revive and regain their former glory, apart from continuing to strengthen in the transfer market and buying players suitable for Amorim's needs, there is no other better way to save the team. Since the club has chosen Amorim, it is necessary to give him time and rebuild the team according to his coaching philosophy. Objectively speaking, there are not many players in Manchester United's current squad who fit his tactical style. This cannot be blamed on the players. The path of reconstruction will inevitably be accompanied by a period of pain. This is a problem of the club's own decision-making, and only the senior management can bear this responsibility and bear this cost. Casemiro leaves Manchester United for 15 million pounds, or reunites with Cristiano Ronaldo. Recently, according to Brazil's "UOL" media, Manchester United midfielder Casemiro has decided to bid farewell to Old Trafford and intends to transfer to the Saudi Arabian professional league in January. It is reported that in order to reduce salary pressure, the Red Devils are willing to sell the player at a low price, with a price tag of only 15 million pounds, to save a weekly salary expenditure of up to 350,000 pounds. Through the dual benefits of transfer fees and wage cuts, the club is expected to gain more than 33 million pounds in financial space. Since Casemiro transferred from Real Madrid to Manchester United in 2022, he has played more than 100 times for the team and also helped the team…

This season, under the leadership of two successive head coaches, Manchester United's performance has been consistently poor, which was unexpected by the management. Originally, according to the management's plan, Manchester United did not intend to make big transfers during the winter transfer window. However, it now appears that in response to Amorim's strong demands to quickly lift the team out of its slump, the owner Ratcliffe is prepared for reinforcements. At least in the center forward and left wing-back positions, Manchester United is expected to welcome top-level new signings simultaneously. At the same time, the club is also carrying out a cleanup of surplus players. In the attacking end, Manchester United's recent efficiency has been unconvincing. In the last three games, they have conceded seven goals, with an average of over two goals per game. The high-priced attackers have collectively failed to deliver, leaving head coach Amorim at a loss. As the team's de facto star player, Rashford has become the team's biggest "burden." Just two seasons ago, Rashford was one of the most efficient forwards in the Premier League, almost single-handedly shouldering the majority of Manchester United's scoring tasks. However, since signing a contract with Manchester United worth a weekly salary of 325,000 pounds, Rashford seems to have suddenly lost his motivation, and his performance has been hovering at a low point since last season. After Amorim joined the team, Rashford had a brief moment of brilliance, scoring three goals, but he was soon benched by Amorim, unable to even make the matchday squad. The main reason is the…

Manchester United's recruitment efforts over the past few seasons have not been particularly successful. Based on this season's performance, apart from the acquisitions of Bruno Fernandes (B fee) and Mazraoui achieving some success, other players such as Antony and Hojlund who cost nearly 100 million euros, as well as Ten Hag's former Ajax players like De Ligt, have not performed particularly well. Despite bringing in several players from the Eredivisie, specifically his former Ajax players, Ten Hag's "Dutch contingent" has not achieved success, and Amorim is not very satisfied with these players. In an interview, Amorin also expressed dissatisfaction with Manchester United's current squad, believing that they are not adaptable to his three-center-back system. It is certain that Manchester United will make personnel adjustments. According to information from The Mail, Manchester United views Porto striker Aguer and Paris Saint-Germain left-back Nuno Mendes as key targets for recruitment. Among them, the Portuguese defender previously worked with Amorin and now has less than 2 years left on his contract at PSG. If he does not renew his contract, PSG is willing to sell him. Whether Aguer and Nuno Mendes can adapt to Manchester United and Amorin's tactical system remains to be seen, but based on this news, Manchester United may really go from one extreme to another. It cannot be denied that every head coach has their own coaching style and recruitment tendencies, and it is completely understandable to prioritize their former players. However, completely negating previous recruitment achievements and making large-scale changes to the squad, even if it leads to success,…

Who is the most special coach in the world? Once known as "the Special One," Mourinho remains a central figure in discussions even after moving to the Turkish Super League. In a recent interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, he openly discussed many interesting topics, giving everyone a glimpse of the real Mourinho. Mourinho is like a bird without roots, traveling through various European leagues and leaving championship trophies at each stop, along with more controversies. From the Portuguese league to the English Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, and now the Turkish Super League, Mourinho's presence can be seen everywhere. Traditional giants such as Chelsea, Real Madrid, and Inter Milan have all won various championships under his guidance, making him truly unique. Looking back on Mourinho's coaching career, it started with consecutive European titles with Porto, which caught everyone's attention. He then reached his peak at Chelsea, Inter Milan, Real Madrid, and Manchester United. After experiencing disappointment at Old Trafford, Mourinho began to decline, coaching Tottenham, Roma, and Fenerbahce, teams that are no longer traditional powerhouses but still managed to bring home championships. The only exceptions were his time at Tottenham and his recent stint at Fenerbahce, where he did not win any championships. Despite Roma not being a top team, they reached the finals of European competitions for two consecutive years and won their first European title, which is enough to prove Mourinho's appeal. Therefore, many people are curious about what the real Mourinho looks like. After successfully undergoing a minor gallbladder surgery, Mourinho revealed many interesting stories…

According to the latest reports, Premier League giants Liverpool and Manchester United will compete for Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkes in January. The 21-year-old player transferred to the Cherries from AZ Alkmaar for a fee of 17.87 million euros in the summer of 2023. This Hungarian defender has been impressive this season at Bournemouth, achieving an 82% pass accuracy rate in the Premier League and averaging 4.4 interceptions per game. Additionally, Kerkez likes to make forward runs and deliver crosses into the box, which has resulted in him contributing 8 assists and 5 goals in 57 matches for Bournemouth. According to Caught Offside, both Liverpool and Manchester United are looking for a quality left-back in January, and Milos Kerkez is one of their top targets. However, it is reported that Bournemouth will demand 50 million pounds to part ways with the Hungarian player. Although Liverpool has two excellent left-backs in Robertson and Tsimikas, the former is already 30 years old. Head coach Arne Slot seems keen on signing Kerkez as a future reinforcement. Ruben Amorim's team is lacking in left-back options, with Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia also lacking form and fitness. Last season, both spent most of their time receiving treatment, and this season they have struggled to make an impact. This season, Shaw and Malacia have played in 3 and 5 club games respectively. So far, neither has scored for Manchester United. According to Caught Offside, other Premier League teams such as Chelsea, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur are also monitoring Kerkez's situation. However, Manchester United and Liverpool are the…

Teng Hahe was sacked, and when Manchester United finalized Amorim, the prospects were promising. At that time, Amorim, who coached the Portuguese Super League defending champion Sporting Portugal, won consecutive victories in the Portuguese Super League and the Champions League, leading the Portuguese Super League standings strongly, and on the Champions League stage, they defeated Manchester City 4-1. In the 16th round of the Premier League, it was the first Manchester Derby in Amorim's coaching career, leading Manchester United to defeat Guardiola's team, the defending Premier League champions, 2-1 away from home. Also favored was Amorim's favorite player at Sporting Portugal, Yorkres. When Teng Hahe coached before, Manchester United had long been in a state of weak attack. In the ninth round of the Premier League, Manchester United lost 1-2 to West Ham United away from home, which was Teng Hahe's last game before being sacked. At that time, Manchester United had 3 wins, 2 draws, and 4 losses in 9 games, accumulating 11 points, ranking 14th in the Premier League standings. In 9 games, Manchester United scored 8 goals and conceded 11, with their attacking power ranking third from the bottom among the 20 teams in the Premier League, only scoring 2 more goals than Crystal Palace and Southampton during the same period. If Amorim can bring his former protégé Yorkres from Sporting Portugal to Manchester United during the winter window, can the Red Devils' offense be greatly improved? The honeymoon period between Amorim and Manchester United has passed, and it seems that there was never a honeymoon to…

Just last season, a few months ago, Manchester United's genius new star Kobe Menu was still the standout in the team. This young man played his part in England's rise to the final of the 2024 European Cup during an outstanding season in his first participation in high-level football matches. In November 2023, Erik ten Hag belatedly brought this local youngster into the Manchester United squad for the first time, starting him in the Premier League match against Everton after he was injured in the preseason. Menu's performance as the best player in the Premier League at Goodison Park set the tone for his personal glory in the 2023/24 season. For this graduate of the Manchester United youth academy, a significant highlight came in February when Menu locked down all three points for the team in dramatic circumstances against Wolves. He cleverly weaved through the home team's defense and then sent the ball into the corner of the goal with elegance. A Premier League star was born. However, this talented midfielder returned to Molineux Stadium on Boxing Day, embodying the rookie wall problem that any young player often encounters. In the disappointing 2024/25 season so far, 19-year-old Menu has performed poorly. In his 50th appearance for the first team, Menu looked like a shadow of the player who shone last season. As Samuel Luckhurst said, Menu struggled in midfield. Now deployed in midfield alongside summer signing Manuel Ugarte, this Manchester United youth talent seems somewhat behind the pace, winning only twice in eight duels, failing to complete a dribble, and…
