Leeds fans have brutally mocked Kalvin Phillips with a ruthless chant after Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola accused him of being “overweight”.

He suffered a shoulder injury soon after his arrival which has kept him in the treatment room at the Etihad Stadium. The midfielder was still called up to the England squad for the World Cup, though he played just 40 minutes as the Three Lions reached the quarter-finals. He returned to City after the tournament, but was…

Gakpo’s move from PSV to Anfield for a reported £37million was confirmed by the Reds on Wednesday night. The Dutch international had been a long-time target for United and after a successful World Cup campaign it was thought that Erik ten Hag would move for the forward in January to replace Cristiano Ronaldo.

It has been almost a decade since Sir Alex Ferguson retired and almost a decade since Manchester United have tasted anything more than fleeting success. Their last Premier League title challenge came under Fergie, his parting gift in the form of a milestone 20th English league title – extending their own record. In the years since, United have sporadically won cup competitions – the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League once each – but haven’t been remotely close to winning the two trophies that matter most – the Premier League and Champions League. Money has been spent in the transfer market…

Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag is reliant on the Glazers when it comes to transfer backing at Old Trafford. Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag wants a new striker to join the club when the transfer window reopens next month. However, with the Red Devils only able to sign players on loan, it’s clear he’s being let down. The Glazers are penny-pinching once again and, with the Americans reluctant to spend any more money as they look to sell the club, their stance is an insult to everybody associated with it. Manchester United lost Cristiano Ronaldo last month, terminating…

Recent reports have suggested that Manchester City are plotting an eye-watering swoop for World Cup breakthrough star Josko Gvardiol but Pep Guardiola may be better off putting his faith in academy graduate Taylor Harwood-Bellis. Foot Mercato have claimed that City have submitted a bid of around £85m for the 20-year-old centre-back, who was crucial as Croatia finished third at the World Cup in Qatar. While he is undoubtedly a hugely impressive young centre-back, it would be another example of City spending big money rather than giving opportunities to promising youngsters, and Harwood-Bellis has shown with his performances on loan at…

The Uruguayan has impressed many of the Anfield faithful but been on the end of a considerable amount of ridicule from those further afield and many of these observers may assume that the signing of the Dutch international could spell the end of the former Benfica forward’s days in the starting line-up.

It may have massive jaws, but the gulper eel’s ultra-black skin ensures it remains well hidden in the depths of the ocean Compared with the enormous size of their jaws, gulper eels (Eurypharynx pelecanoides), also known as pelican eels, have one of the tiniest skulls of any animal.
