Manchester City suffered a blow on New Year’s Eve but they are not out of this yet Mikel Arteta looks concerned as Manchester City take on Arsenal (Image: Stuart MacFarlane/Arsenal FC via Getty Images) Leaving the Etihad Stadium is rarely deflating but following the result against Everton this weekend, many will have felt a sinking feeling. City had the better of the first half against Frank Lampard’s Toffees and deservedly went into the interval a goal up. However, instead of inspired play from the opposition turning the match around, it was actually a moment out of both teams’ control which would…

Manchester City‘s emerging star Rico Lewis has left former BBC pundit Noel Whelan blown away by his recent performances. Despite only being 18-years-old, Lewis has managed to force his way into the Man City starting XI in recent weeks, starting the two most recent games ahead of Joao Cancelo, against Leeds United and Everton. The right-back has made five appearances total in the Premier League, while he has also featured twice in the Champions League this season, scoring once, and he has now been the subject of praise from Whelan for his efforts.

Jamie Carragher has claimed Liverpool no longer look like a “Jurgen Klopp team” after emphatically questioning their recruiters – especially when it comes to their midfield. Liverpool’s first game of January may have served as a reminder that they might need to utilise the current transfer window to reinforce their squad. They suffered a shock 3-1 defeat to Brentford, which raised further questions of their ability to finish in the top four. Klopp’s side have suffered from inconsistency this season, which has been a stark contrast to the previous campaign in which they fought well on four fronts, succeeding in…
The Reds’ head coach launched a rant at the center referee in Tuesday’s capitulation at Brentford. Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp launched a scathing attack at the match referee as his side fell to a disappointing defeat in Tuesday’s Premier League clash with Brentford. The German coach and his men found themselves on the wrong end of a 3-1 scoreline at the Brentford Community Stadium, a result which he believes was unfair. The 2019-2020 Premier League champions have seen their title charge blighted by a series of injuries to several key players and, on Tuesday, had their poor run of form…

Manchester United are ‘100% open’ to selling right-back Aaron Wan-Bissaka despite his re-emergence in the team, according to an update from renowned transfer guru Fabrizio Romano. The Englishman may have earned some playing time since the 2022 World Cup but it is clear that he doesn’t feature in Erik ten Hag’s long-term plans. Diogo Dalot has very much made the right-back spot his own when he is fit and Wan-Bissaka has often looked too limited technically to thrive in this United side, despite a slight uptick in Dalot’s absence. Numerous recent rumours have claimed that the defender could move in the near future with the…

Mohamed Salah will be hoping to break a Liverpool Premier League record in Monday’s fixture against Brentford. Despite an indifferent start to the campaign, the Merseyside giants have recorded four straight victories to boost their chances of regaining a spot in the top four of the standings. Should Jurgen Klopp’s side prevail in West London on Monday evening, they will move ahead of Tottenham Hotspur and into fifth position, a point adrift of fourth-placed Manchester United having played a game more than the Red Devils. Although their hosts are currently on a five-match unbeaten streak in the top flight, Liverpool are favourites to record a…
Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag could welcome three players back to his squad against Bournemouth. Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag has suggested he expects to receive a triple boost ahead of Tuesday’s Premier League clash against AFC Bournemouth. However, Jadon Sancho’s return to action still isn’t imminent as he continues an individual training programme at Carrington. United have won their three games since the season resumed after the World Cup break, scoring six goals and conceding none. The period of results, part of an impressive five-match winning run, has been made all the more eye-catching by Ten Hag’s weakened…

Last week it was reported that Liverpool were in ‘pole position’ to sign Chelsea target Enzo Fernandez. As reported by Rudy Galetti, Jurgen Klopp’s side were favourites to sign the Argentina international, who won a World Cup in December.

According to the Italian journalist, the Blues’ pursuit of the Benfica midfielder is ‘really advanced’ and it does, at this stage, look like he’s heading to Stamford Bridge. Romano told Caught Offside: “At the moment there…

They call her “The Carrot.” The fish has been swimming in the Bluewater Lakes in Champagne, France for about 15 years and during that time has evaded most anglers.

Phil Foden, Joao Cancelo and Kyle Walker have not started any of Manchester City’s three games since the World Cup ended. Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola has hinted that bad “body language” in training is the reason for some of his first-team regulars not playing as much lately. City dropped two valuable points against Everton on New Year’s Eve with both Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo being unused substitutes. Guardiola has surprisingly opted with talented teenager Rico Lewis to start at right wing-back in all three of City’s games since the season resumed after the World Cup. Nathan Ake has also…
Neil Lennon believes Caomhin Kelleher needs to leave Liverpool to ‘fulfill his full potential’. The young shot stopper is Alisson Becker’s understudy at the moment but does feature for the Reds in domestic cup competitions. Although it’s hard to see the Ireland International replacing our No. 1 as first choice anytime soon, he is contracted to the club until 2026 and has clearly learnt a lot from the former AS Roma ‘keeper. “Kelleher will need to leave Liverpool to fulfill his full potential,” the former Celtic manager told Football Odds (via The Kop Times). “It will be difficult for him to displace Alisson…
Former manager Stuart Pearce ripped into Antony after his underwhelming performance against Wolverhampton Wanderers. The Manchester United winger is not in the best of form and looks lost. He was relatively quiet throughout the game and did not offer much going forward. Pearce went on to state: “Antony has got no intention of tracking back, Wolves can get a lot of joy down that side.” Later on he said: “Antony has failed to make an impact – he’s given away the ball on far too many occasions.” “He irritates the life out of me. Every time he gets the ball he…
If a prize is being handed out for the world’s cutest creature, the Siberian flying squirrel is certainly in with a chance of winning. Squirrels are considered as furry lovely little critters that have the power to make one go “aaaaaaaw”. But these squirrels take the cuteness factor to a whole new level. Flying squirrels can be spotted from the Pacific coast to the Baltic Sea in Japan and Europe. These creatures are classified as Old World flying squirrels. Even though flying squirrels do not hibernate, they do sleep for many days at a time throughout the winter. A Siberian…
This tree is called “Majesty”. Majesty, the Fredville Oak, is seen by many tree lovers and experts as the most impressive oak in Great Britain. Some even think of it as the most impressive tree of any in the country. Also it is one of the biggest oaks in the UK. Most of the other super big oaks are (often ruined) pollards with a short trunk and a small crown, but this is a healthy maiden tree with a long trunk and still a substantial crown. In the early twentieth century the tree lost an enormous limb at 3 – 4…
Using a camera to explore the ocean floor — roughly 820 to 1,200 feet below the surface — off the coast of Puerto Rico last week, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientists got a rare opportunity to observe something they hardly see: a live shark embryo. During the deep sea journey, researchers witnessed 12 different kinds of fish, from bigeye soldierfish to silk snappers with its remotely operated vehicle Deep Discoverer, the NOAA said in a news release. They also witnessed an array of colorful coral and sponges along Desecheo Island. But it was a tiny translucent egg case floating nearby that really caught…
