Jurgen Klopp has been fortunate not to have lost too many players to injury so far this season, but a couple of recent fitness issues have been compounded by an unwelcome streak of red cards and subsequent bans. Here, we take a look at those who are…
Tottenham Hotspur and manager Ange Postecoglou have a “top-class talent” in their ranks and he is “on the verge” of being absolutely world class. Spurs are now a completely different side under their new manager. In stark contrast to the Antonio Conte era, Postecoglou’s new-look Tottenham team are displaying an attack-minded style, and one which has resulted in them being top of the Premier League standings. The north Londoners are yet to taste defeat in the league this campaign, and this has been their best start to a season since they won a domestic double in 1961. Making Tottenham’s form…
Manchester City star Jack Grealish has praised Tottenham and Ange Postecoglou for their impressive start to the 2023/24 Premier League season.

While the Lilywhites have played the current bottom four of Luton, Sheffield United, Bournemouth…
Manchester United have launched an investigation into why their first-team squad has suffered so many injuries. With the Premier League season just eight matches in, no fewer than 16 players have been injured or unavailable to manager Erik ten Hag so far. That situation has ensured that the Dutchman has been unable to pick his first choice XI once this season, with new signings Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount among those affected. It has also played a role in what has been an underwhelming start, with United currently in 10th place. Mail Sport understands that officials from the Old Trafford…

In recent years, the Premier League has been no stranger to mid-season international tournaments. The introduction of the UEFA Nations League, EUROs and World Cup qualification and even a World Cup itself taking place last winter really hammered home the amount of matches players are now forced to play across the length of a campaign. But now it’s time for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), with the draw for the competition taking place tonight at the Parc des Expositions d’Abidjan in Abidjan, the economic capital and the largest city in the host nation of the Ivory Coast. The 26…

A former England international has explained why he believes that at his peak, Virgil van Dijk “is the best defender that has ever lived.” Liverpool were a rising force under Jurgen Klopp during the early seasons of his spell on Merseyside. However, what turned the club into one capable of winning the game’s top honours were the arrivals of Alisson Becker, Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah within a 12 months span between 2017-18. Liverpool have gone on to end their Premier League drought and lift European Cup/Champions League number six since then. They’ve regularly been Man City’s closest challengers on the…
