Newcastle United’s failure to strengthen their midfield in January proved costly as they fell out of the top four and lost the League Cup final to Manchester United.

Manchester United seem increasingly linked with a summer move for Harry Kane. On paper, it makes sense.

However, if the side does reflect deeply, the deal…

A quick scurry of a finish, Stretford End is ecstatic and Marcus Rashford points to his head yet again. While the above is certainly the story of the goal-hungry Manchester United forward, it cannot be denied that he is doing a lot more than just pointing at his head. In fact, in recent games, the…
Manchester United ought to consider themselves lucky to secure a 2-0 win over Leeds United.

Harry Maguire’s lack of game time under Erik ten Hag has prompted interest from a Premier League club. Maguire, 29, enjoyed a fine World Cup with England this winter. But his performances in Qatar haven’t managed to influence team dynamics in his favour at Manchester United. If anything, Ten Hag’s seemingly successful experiment of deploying…
Erik ten Hag’s Luke Shaw experiment is arguably one of the best recent gambits in football.
