West Ham forced into Lopetegui sack by most damning verdict possible as ‘favoured option’ emerges
West Ham will hold talks over sacking Julen Lopetegui after drawing up a shortlist of replacements, with the ‘dressing room unhappy’ at the situation.
West Ham will hold talks over sacking Julen Lopetegui after drawing up a shortlist of replacements, with the ‘dressing room unhappy’ at the situation.
It genuinely feels more likely that Pep Guardiola resigns than he turns this around. Liverpool and Bukayo Saka are brilliant. Newcastle and Everton are not.
West Ham place immense importance on games against Arsenal, as David Moyes recently revealed. Julen Lopetegui should be grateful they pulled their punches.
Ruud van Nistelrooy might have made a mistake in taking the Leicester job. Evanilson and Chris Wood are brilliant, while Marc Guehi had his redemption.
Liverpool are famously yet to beat a Proper Team but when can Arne Slot’s double table-toppers hope to prove themselves properly and end that streak?
Kylian Mbappe was ‘scared’, ‘clumsy’ and ‘downright useless’ for Real Madrid against Liverpool as Anfield became his ‘hell’. The Spanish press is here.
Ruud van Nistelrooy is expected to become manager of Leicester, but only after their owner is done accusing the players of getting Steve Cooper sacked.
Gary Neville reckons Liverpool ‘could run all over’ Manchester City at Anfield and has made a frankly unbelievable claim about Jamie Redknapp.
Virgil van Dijk decided not to take the same course of action as Mo Salah when asked about his Liverpool future – but his agent has taken a drastic step.
Jude Bellingham believes Real Madrid deserved to lose to Liverpool in the Champions League due to a difference in attitude and tactical approach at Anfield.
Jamie Carragher has had ‘a bit of stick in the changing room’ at Liverpool after his recent comments about ‘selfish’ Mohamed Salah, a teammate has revealed.
Arsenal were phenomenal in victory over Sporting, to the point you wonder why they don’t simply do this all the time. Ruben Amorim can’t have enjoyed that.
Only Newcastle and West Ham get more minutes out of their best-paid player than Liverpool, whose Mo Salah panic is overshadowing problems at six other clubs.
Ruben Amorim is a Premier League winner. Hear us out. There is praise for Ange Postecoglou and Gary O’Neil but Man City, Steve Cooper and Sean Dyche get it.
Of course Spurs followed defeat to Ipswich by thrashing champions Man City. Dejan Kulusevski was sensational. Two players were atrocious for Pep Guardiola.
Mikel Arteta can do better but Julen Lopetegui may be sacked for his reluctance to use youth. Ruben Amorim has inherited solid foundations from Erik ten Hag.
Ruben Amorim will face Ipswich in his first game as a manager in England, much like Arne Slot. The Liverpool coach had a better start than most.
West Ham have given Julen Lopetegui his latest pointless two-game job-saving ultimatum. It is not working, probably never will and should end now.
There are back-up keepers but also a record transfer and a Manchester United jewel among the Premier League summer signings we have still yet to see debut.
Manchester City cannot be blamed for doing all they can to keep Pep Guardiola. But a one-year deal feels weirdly desperate from the world’s best-run club.
Ruben Amorim has overseen his first Man Utd training session, instantly proving he might be better than Tony Adams. But not good enough to sell Antony.
Ruben Amorim built his Sporting revolution on the back of players who flopped in the Premier League – and frequently embarrassed Wolves in the process.
Neither Pep Guardiola nor Unai Emery had lost four consecutive games before this weekend. By 10pm on Saturday both had been swept up in this Liverpool wave.
Julen Lopetegui ambled to another uninspiring result and performance as West Ham manager in the David Moyes derby, while Roy Keane nailed Dean Henderson.
Manchester United makes up about four per cent of the coaching career of David Moyes, but nearly all of his interviews. It is obvious why but no less boring.
Arsenal have lost Edu to Nottingham Forest so it is only right that they raid a Premier League rival for his replacement. Liverpool should be worried.
Bournemouth, Joe Gomez and Nottingham Forest’s assistant are praised. But Arsenal and Julen Lopetegui are in trouble and Cole Palmer must improve.
Alejandro Garnacho should be dropped but Manchester United have made an actual good signing! As have Chelsea with Moises Caicedo, it turns out.
Aston Villa have achieved some incredible things under Unai Emery but their Premier League form is of some concern. Their tightrope tactics are not working.
Arsenal midfielder Mikel Merino might not recognise Newcastle but there will be more emotional reunions for Ruud van Nistelrooy and Arne Slot.
