Manchester United have finally got themselves a proper No.9. One that moves, heads footballs, scores goals and everything. Now Ole Gunnar Solskjaer just has to keep him.

All encouraging Arsenal performances come with many, many caveats – they turn corner after corner yet still haven’t arrived anywhere decisive – and any wins over this sadly limp and lifeless Sheffield United side come with even more, but this win was badly needed. It barely matters that the resistance from the Blades was almost […]

Manchester United gave a mature response after an understandably childish end to the first half. Tottenham and Jose Mourinho are not working. 1) The game’s gone. Where? Dunno. But it has. Tottenham and Manchester United played for 90 minutes plus stoppages, scoring one and three regulation association football goals respectively. Some players were very […]

Here was a game that in its final stages came with a now-familiar feeling for both sides. A sense of dread that a great deal of good work could once again count for nothing. For West Ham, this feeling was about the individual game as for the third game in a row a 3-0 lead […]

Newcastle owe this win entirely to Allan Saint-Maximin – a special player the likes of which other relegation contenders cannot call upon.

Thomas Tuchel continues to rattle through his Chelsea to-do list at breakneck speed. After the Blues’ best attacking performance of his reign so far, the new manager may well be thinking about checking off perhaps his most-pressing task.

If Liverpool are to answer Jurgen Klopp’s calls for some positive momentum, in the absence of a thumping win, that was perhaps the perfect way to start.

In most transfers, one party usually becomes the patsy. But the loan move of Jesse Lingard to West Ham is one of those rare instances of a deal working out perfectly for everyone involved. The Hammers cannot believe their luck. Just over a year ago, they were a laughing stock when it came to recruitment. […]

For Manchester United, that’ll do. This was, in truth, a pretty rubbish game and United weren’t all that much better than a desperately tame and fearful Granada side who have doomed themselves to die wondering having fallen to a tie-killing 2-0 defeat without ever really laying a glove on a United side who managed only […]
