Harry Maguire has been told that he is “too nervous and too slow” to play for a club like Manchester United and should be playing for a “small team from the bottom of the league.” That is according to former United defender Paul Parker, who claimed Maguire’s current predicament at Old Trafford is “embarrassing now.” Maguire retained the United armband under Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag, but the England defender lost his place in the starting XI this season. The 29-year-old United star has been widely criticised since his sensational £80m transfer from Leicester City, with Maguire reduced to 19 appearances this…

Erik ten Hag’s side look open to selling Aaron Wan-Bissaka in this January transfer window according to Fabrizio Romano, and right-back cover for Diogo Dalot appears to be on the agenda. Man Utd Transfer News – Malo Gusto According to Sky journalist Florian Plettenberg back in mid-December, the 19-year-old is highly-rated by transfer chiefs at United, and that he has an estimated price tag of around £34m. More recently, The Daily Mail have claimed that fellow Premier League side Newcastle United have joined the race to sign the teenage…
Manchester United forward Antony was left shaken up after he crashed his £100,000 BMW on a motorway on New Year’s Eve after Man United’s 1-0 win against Wolves, according to reports. The Sun claim the 22-year-old crashed his BMW X6 into roadworks on the M56 near his home in Hale, Greater Manchester, while driving in ‘wet’ conditions. Police were called to the scene where the £80m winger ‘passed a breathalyser test’ before his car was recovered, with the newspaper stating that ‘no one else was involved in the incident.’ A source from The Sun said: ‘It was dark and wet and he made an error…
Scarlett Johansson gushed that it’s ‘very exciting’ to have Angelina Jolie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). The actress, 34, shared her delight over news that the 44-year-old will appear in The Eternals with E! News on Sunday, and said ‘it’s about time’ there were more female stars in the sprawling franchise. Also discussing Salma Hayek and Rachel Weisz’s casting in the MCU, as well as Tessa Thompson and Natalie Portman’s roles, she said: ‘It was amazing. I mean, there’s a lot of women up there that I hugely admire… It’s bananas. ‘I think it’s very exciting. I think it grounds the presence of the…
Margot Robbie was left completely stunned after a Good Morning Britiain producer showed her his tattoo of her face on his back at the Amsterdam premiere on Wednesday night. The 32-year-old actress was lost for words when Ashley Whitt rolled up his top to reveal his Harley Quinn inking, moments after being interviewed by entertainment reporter Richard Arnold on the red carpet. Of course, Australian star Robbie has portrayed Harley Quinn in three films so far. She first appeared as the famous character in 2016’s Suicide Squad, before going on to repreise the role for 2020’s Bird’s Of Prey and most recently The…
A Babylon fan has praised Margot Robbie for embodying the ‘golden age of Hollywood’ in her performance in the new comedy-drama. Glitz, glamour and a whole lot of parties – that’s what springs to mind for me when I think of old Hollywood, and that’s exactly what Babylon delivers as it takes us back to the roaring ’20s. The movie stars Robbie alongside Brad Pitt, Diego Calva, Olivia Wilde, Jean Smart and more as we follow multiple characters throughout their lives in California. Far from her poised and perfect role in the upcoming Barbie movie, in Babylon Robbie takes on the character of Nellie LaRoy, an unknown actor who’s determined to be anything but,…
LIVERPOOL 2-2 WOLVES: A full-strength Liverpool were held by a much-changed Wolves side, who left Anfield frustrated with offside decisions they believe cost them victory Liverpool were forced into an FA Cup replay by a resilient Wolves side, who secured a 2-2 draw at Anfield despite being denied by contentious offside decisions. The home side gift-wrapped Wolves the opening goal as Alisson’s attempt to play out from the back went straight to Goncalo Guedes, who slotted it home past the Brazilian. The much-changed visitors were dominant in the first half but were made to pay for a lack of ruthlessness…
The Dutchman made his debut in Saturday’s FA Cup clash and impressed from the off Cody Gakpo insists his new Liverpool side have plenty to work and improve on after Saturday evening’s 2-2 draw against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup third round. The Premier League pair will need 90 more minutes – plus the potential of extra-time and penalties- at some point between now and January 28 to separate them, following a frantic match at Anfield. Goncalo Guedes gave the visitors an early lead after an awful Alisson Becker mistake, but goals either side of half-time from Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah turned the…
The talking points ahead of Manchester City’s FA Cup third round clash vs Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium. Lewis position in squad could be confirmed In a normal season, an FA Cup third-round tie in the middle of a hectic fixture list would be the ideal chance to rest a senior player and bring in a teenager from the academy to give them some useful experience. This is not a normal season, though, and Sunday’s clash with Chelsea could see Rico Lewis rested for Manchester City in favour of Kyle Walker and Joao Cancelo. Fitness and injury issues have hampered Walker and Cancelo since…
Kalvin Phillips returned from the World Cup with England overweight and faced the full force of Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola’s disdain before returning to the fold Pep Guardiola has warned Kalvin Phillips that he must be in perfect condition year round. But after publicly digging the midfielder out last week for returning from his post-World Cup break overweight, the Manchester City boss is ready to throw him back into his starting line-up. That might be on Sunday in the FA Cup third round against Chelsea after his late cameo in the Premier League meeting between the two sides on Thursday. But certainly against Southampton in the Blues’ EFL Cup quarter-final on Wednesday as they try…
The Blues shot-stopper has been out of action since the return with injury after playing at the World Cup. Edouard Mendy has undergone an operation on a fractured finger after injuring it during training, the club have revealed. The 30-year-old has been absent from the matchday squad since the Premier League’s return with Marcus Bettinelli taking his place on the bench instead. Mendy was replaced as first-choice keeper by Kepa Arrizabalaga once Graham Potter was appointed and has only played five times since then, all coming when Kepa was injured himself. The statement says he will be working with the…
At the end of a lengthy and characteristically measured justification of his tenure at Chelsea, Graham Potter, who has taken six points out of the last 24, picked up a drinks can and gesticulated at it in frustration. ‘It’s not like I’m some robot, just speaking to this can all the time,’ he exclaimed. And it was as though in the last four months Chelsea had finally got to him: Carlo Ancelotti, Jose Mourinho, Antonio Conte, Thomas Tuchel doubtless sympathisers. It also felt good that at last he was being himself rather than the inscrutable version of what he thinks a top-club manager ought to…
