Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham: Player ratings as Spurs turn on the second half style

Late Manchester United missed the opportunity to move into the Champions League places as they conceded a 95th-minute equaliser in a 2-2 draw with Southampton at Old Trafford on Monday evening. In a breathless opening half, Anthony Martial pounced on James Ward-Prowse's error and raced through, but was denied by a smart Alex McCarthy save. While Ward-Prowse wasn't punished for his lapse of concentration, moments later Paul Pogba was. The United midfielder was dispossessed by Danny Ings, who fed...

Will Gerrard, Tuchel or Rodgers be the next manager sacked?

As days at the office go, Leicester had a bit of a mixed one against Bournemouth on Sunday. Everything was going smoothly for Brendan Rodgers' side in the first hour; they were 1-0 up, comfortably dominating the game and playing some really sharp football. The amount of character being shown? Off the charts. Then Leicester completely fell to pieces. In the space of two minutes, Kasper Schmeichel hammered a goal kick into his own teammate, Wilfred Ndidi conceded a penalty and Caglar Soyuncu saw...

Once touted as the crown jewel in England's talented youngsters, the boy from Reading had been treading water for some time. Some miles north-east in London, great friend and former youth teammate Tammy...

FIFA 21: Manchester United Player Ratings for Ultimate Team Revealed

In 2018, Didier Deschamps arguably had the most terrifying depth on the left wing that any manager has ever boasted going into a World Cup. His France side could boast the crochets of the two-footed Ousmane Dembélé, the creativity of Thomas Lemar and the frightening pace of Kingsley Coman, while the main man Antoine Griezmann was no stranger to playing on the left. Faced with this embarrassment of riches, who did Deschamps end up starting there for the vast majority of the tournament? None...

Man City weren't perfect at Chelsea but still cut gap to league leaders

Them Gone are the days when every summer transfer window brought with it peril for Liverpool. Even at the height of Brendan Rodgers' tenure, when the Reds were last title challengers, the risk was there of key players being stripped away, resulting in a recruitment drive that didn't always bear fruit. Rickie Lambert. Mario Balotelli. Christian Benteke. You shudder at the thought. Now, the Reds are in an unfamiliar position of strength. The only players keen to leave the club are doing so just...

Sinaloa violence forces two postponements

arke A 4-0 drubbing at the hands of West Ham this past weekend finally condemned Norwich to the relegation they've been staring in the face for over nine months now.

But while it's been a disappointing year for supporters who initially had high hopes of staying up - owing to a promising start to the season - it's now time to readjust, reassess and get behind...
