Manchester United are through to the next round after a hard-fought-for win against Everton. United at times had to weather the storm and did so brilliantly to emerge 3-1 winners against the Toffees. United got their goals through Antony, an own-goal from Conor Coady and a penalty from Marcus Rashford. Again, as in recent weeks, Rashford stole the show. Beyond his stoppage-time penalty, it was Rashford’s incredible contribution that forced United’s second goal. His powerful cross on the outside hit Coady to go past a helpless Jordan Pickford. Rashford predominantly played on the left before Alejandro Garnacho’s introduction which saw the Englishman moved…

Former England boss suggests Liverpool appoint Lionel Scaloni if Jurgen Klopp leaves Speaking to OLBG (h/t Liverpool Echo), former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson has suggested Liverpool hire Lionel Scaloni as their next manager if Jurgen Klopp gets sacked. Scaloni has been one of the hits in football management since taking over the Argentina job in 2018. He led his country to a Copa America title in 2021. He followed that up by lifting the World Cup in Qatar last month. The former West Ham United player’s tactical ingenuity has been hailed by many because the South American side needed something special after losing their opening…
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag will consider the FA Cup as a sterling opportunity to clinch a piece of major silverware in his debut season in charge of the prestigious club. With the Red Devils devoid of silverware since defeating Ajax Amsterdam in the 2016/17 Europa League final, and currently adrift of the expectation of Champions League football, finishing sixth in the division last term, Ten Hag is rekindling the fire at the club and giving impetus to the magnitude of playing on the Old Trafford turf. Currently fourth in the league after 17 matches with a game in hand on third-placed Newcastle United – with both sides on 35 points – Ten Hag…

The state of Washington is home to several beautiful forests that attract visitors and hikers each year, and while they are all wonderful, Hoh Rain Forest is especially unique. This forest is like no other in the United States, with its thick, towering greenery and moss-covered trees. In fact, it’s quite reminiscent of the Forbidden Forest from Harry Potter. Chances are you probably won’t see any werewolves or unicorns in the area, but the astonishing natural beauty of Hoh Rain Forest is truly a fantasy of its own. In Hoh Rain Forest, cloudy and wet days are the norm. The…

A snorkeler in Australia hardly believed her eyes when she spotted a sand mullet fish with a wedding band wrapped around its neck. ShareWait, is that a fish wearing a wedding ring? Image credit: Susan Prior Norfolk Island local Susan Prior was swimming off the east coast of Australia when she beheld the strange site.

The wolffish has the face only a mother could love, but it’s surprisingly affectionate. And it produces antifreeze. ShareCould be a nightmare for a kid, but these guys actually make friends with humans. Source The only thing the Atlantic wolffish (Anarhichas lupus) has common with wolves is that it has sharp teeth and a strong jaw to help it rip apart its prey. Its teeth are so prominent, in fact, that some even poke out of its mouth, giving it an appearance that is creepy and funny at the same time – at least by human standards. But those enormous chompers have a…

After seeing this snake with legs, many people felt extremely bewildered. The fact that most mutants do not have particular abilities does not make them any less interesting. Consider this snake, which was discovered recently in Southwest China. You should be able to tell what distinguishes this snake from others based on the image. Specifically, the strange clawed limb protruding from its side. Dean Qiongxiu, the woman who discovered the snake, said she found it attached to the wall of her bedroom. Qiongxiu, shocked and terrified, proceeded to beat the snake to death with her shoe before preserving the beast…
Weird animals. This lamb in Spain has a leg growing from its head. Watch the video of this bizarre condition. Image This strange condition is called polymelia. It is a birth defect where an additional limb grows from a random part of the body. Sheep are not the only animals to suffer from polymelia. Ducks, cows, frogs and dogs have all been born with extra limbs. Image Humans can also suffer from polymelia. For instance In July 2007 a child was born with four legs in South Africa.
Erik ten Hag looks to be busy adding to his Man Utd squad this January and is already putting plans in place for the summer by renewing the Red Devils’ interest in a previous target Manchester United have reportedly pencilled in a summer swoop for Napoli star Kim Min-Jae as Erik ten Hag attempts to bolster his defence at Old Trafford. The Red Devils have been linked with the centre-back for some time with the South Korean’s performances for the Italian giants since his arrival from Fenerbahce not going unnoticed. He has only been at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona since July but has stepped…
John Stones won the Player of the Match award as he produced an impressive performance in Manchester City’s 1-0 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night Pep Guardiola has hailed John Stones’ performance in the 1-0 win over Chelsea – and believes the centre-back is in the form of his Manchester City career. Riyad Mahrez’s second-half strike proved to be the difference between the two sides at Stamford Bridge as City closed the gap on Premier League leaders Arsenal to five points. Guardiola’s side had hit a bump in the road with a 1-1 draw against Everton on New Year’s Day but bounced back with a dogged win. After…
Manchester City were helped in their 1-0 win over Chelsea by the half-time substitution bringing Rico Lewis onto the pitch Man City fans chanted for Rico Lewis before Pep Guardiola purred over the defender Pep Guardiola said that Rico Lewis is fundamental to the Manchester City team after he sparked a drastic turnaround against Chelsea. The 18-year-old came on for the experienced Joao Cancelo at half-time while Kyle Walker was also hooked as Guardiola recognised that his experimental formation had not worked at Stamford Bridge. With Rodri moving back into his natural position, City effectively went from having no defensive midfielders to having two.…
Jack Grealish provided the assist for Riyad Mahrez’s winner for Manchester City against Chelsea. Jack Grealish has admitted both he and Riyad Mahrez were surprised that Kepa Arrizabalaga didn’t come to collect the ball for Manchester City’s winner goal against Chelsea. Graham Potter’s squad had already been ravaged by injuries in the build-up to the game against City and were dealt another blow when Mason Mount was ruled out before kick-off. Chelsea’s luck went from bad to worse early in the first half too when Raheem Sterling and Christian Pulisic were forced off with separate injuries. Despite Potter’s options being limited, Chelsea still…
Jose Enrique has told Roberto Firmino to consider his future at Liverpool. The Brazil international has been an outstanding servant for the Reds since joining for £29 million back in 2015, under Brendan Rodgers. But there is a sense that his time at Liverpool is coming to an end. Firmino is out of contract in 2023 and now there’s links to Saudi Arabia – as covered by HITC Sport – and it was reported today that Barcelona would keen. Not only that, but when Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz are fit, coupled with the addition of Cody Gakpo, then the 31-year-old, already behind Darwin…
Former Liverpool player Danny Murphy says Nat Phillips is ‘way off’ being good enough for Jurgen Klopp After the injury to Liverpool centre-back Virgil van Dijk against Brentford, many would naturally raise questions about who could replace the player for the duration he will see himself sidelined due to the same hamstring issue. Liverpool have Joel Matip, Ibrahima Konate, Joe Gomez and Nathaniel Phillips to choose from and one would believe that Matip and Ibou would be the first-choice pair in the absence of Van Dijk. Gomez can also put in a shift at right-back and could provide the manager with multiple…
Journalist Neil Jones has given his backing to reports claiming Liverpool are set to sign Matheus Nunes. The player is currently at Wolves. The Telegraph surprised many this week by reporting that Liverpool are nearing a deal for Matheus Nunes.

Former Manchester United forward Louis Saha has tipped Marcus Rashford to mirror the exploits of Erling Haaland and Kylian Mbappe and even possibly eclipse them. Saha remarked that Rashford has the ability to score up to 40 goals a season and compete with the world’s best players. Haaland and Mbappe are widely considered to be the best two of the upcoming generation of football stars and are seen as the heirs to Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Saha said, ” Those two guys [Mbappe and Haaland] have great pace and awareness that very few players have. They’re so good at getting in the right…
Manchester United have reportedly cast their eyes in the direction of Patrick Schick, with focus on bolstering the centre-forward position as the club look to rise up the ranks in the Premier League. This is according to reports stemming from Spain, which chalk Schick’s name onto the list of candidates to take Cristiano Ronald0’s role in the side, after the legendary Portuguese forward came to a mutual agreement with the club to terminate his contract in acrimonious circumstances in November. Offensive “genius” United’s issues in attack have been laid on the table for all to see this season, with Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford the only two established players capable of adopting…
Manchester City are interested in West Ham United star Declan Rice stemming back to reports from October 2022 and his potential arrival at the Etihad could allow Pep Guardiola to get rid of summer flop Kalvin Phillips. According to ExWHUEmployee (via Caught Offside), West Ham are still keen on the England international having failed to sign him from Leeds United in the summer. He said: “Kalvin Phillips is someone that West Ham, David Moyes especially, 100% rates.

Ibrahima Konaté has an opportunity to prove he can replace Virgil van Dijk at Liverpool. The Frenchman has a big task ahead of him. Virgil van Dijk is arguably Liverpool’s most important player and has been for five years. Certainly, there’s a stark contrast between the side before and after his arrival in 2018. The Dutchman quickly established himself as the world’s best centre-back and Liverpool improved dramatically as a result. But that comes with a massive, ominous question – how do you replace him? After all, if you are so dependent on one player, you’re set to take a big…
