Manchester United take on Everton in the League Cup later tonight and the Red Devils will be hoping to book their place in the semi-finals of the competition with a win. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men are coming into this game on the back of 6-2 win over Leeds United and they will be full of confidence. Meanwhile, Everton are in a similar situation as well having beaten Arsenal, Leicester City and Chelsea in their last three games. Both teams have the capability of picking up a win here and it will be interesting to see who comes out on top. Everton are going through a bit of an injury crisis right now and they will be without the likes of Lucas Digne, Fabian Delph, Allan and James Rodriguez. Andre Gomes is a doubt after picking up a hamstring injury against Arsenal and it will be interesting ...
Manchester United have recovered brilliantly after a stuttering start to the season, and could find themselves just two points behind Champions Liverpool if they win their game in hand. The Red Devils may look to bolster their squad in January, as another Bruno Fernandes-type signing could help them mount a genuine title challenge this term. According to reports from The Athletic, signing a striker is a priority for United next month. Erling Haaland of Borussia Dortmund tops Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s list, and the Red Devils boss has been trying to sign him for a long time. The report claims that another option for United could be Dominic Calvert-Lewin. The Everton striker has been in red-hot form this season, scoring 11 goals in 14 Premier League appearances. The 23-year-old has admirer...

Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli could be on the move in the January transfer window, according to reports from The Atheltic. The 24-year-old has dropped down the pecking order at the north London club, and he could be allowed to leave in January. Alli has managed just one Premier League start this season. He has made two starts in the Europa League, and has one goal and assist to his name. The report from the Athletic claims that nothing has been decided yet regarding Alli’s future. The England international could still have a future at Spurs if he impresses in the coming weeks, or if anyone gets injured. A potential move to Everton? According to a recent report from The Telegraph, Premier League rivals Everton and Newcastle United have shown interest in signing him on loan. W...

Last season wasn’t much of a pulse-raiser for the neutrals. Throughout the campaign, Liverpool dominated the Premier League, with the biggest threat to their title ambitions being the COVID-19 pandemic. It was, all things considered, a bit boring. The beginning of the 2020/21 season gave the watching fans hope of an enthralling title race this time around. Jurgen Klopp’s men showed some signs of weakness after a humbling 7-2 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa, before star defender Virgil van Dijk picked up a season-ending injury. But alas, the Reds recovered in fine fashion. The last week has seen them secure a vital late win over Tottenham Hotspur, as well as a dominant 7-0 victory against Crystal Palace, leaving them four points clear at the top of the table on Christmas day. So, are we ...
Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli has once again been linked with a move away from the London club. The 24-year-old midfielder has dropped down the pecking order at Tottenham and it seems that he might have to leave the club in order to play more often. According to the Telegraph, the player could be loaned out when the transfer window reopens in January and Tottenham are thought to be willing to listen to offers for the midfielder. The report further claims that Everton and Newcastle United have been credited with an interest in the England international, however, Daniel Levy would prefer to send the player overseas. Everton and Newcastle could certainly use some creativity in their midfield and Dele Alli could prove to be a smart addition to their side especially on a loan deal. The To...
Former Manchester United defender turned popular football pundit Rio Ferdinand has showered praise on the Everton defence and particularly Ben Godfrey following their latest win. Everton have moved to fourth in the Premier League table following their 2-1 win against Arsenal at Goodison Park last weekend. After a slump in form, the Toffees have now picked up three wins in a row, beating the likes of Chelsea, Leicester City and Arsenal. Ferdinand feels that Everton’s resurgence is down to their solid foundation at the back. With Lucas Digne and Seamus Coleman injured, Carlo Ancelotti was forced to use the likes of Mason Holgate and Godfrey at the back, and it clicked for them. Godfrey, who joined the Toffees during the summer transfer window for a reported fee of £25m from Norwich, has...
That Carlo Ancelotti would improve Everton in his first full-season was expected, but taking them into top four after 14 games is some progress. It’s marvellous. Leicester, Everton and Spurs in the top 4. How marvellous. But what can we possibly do about Liverpool? — Gary Lineker (@GaryLineker) December 20, 2020 The question is — can Everton successfully retain their place? Ancelotti in an exclusive interview with Liverpool Echo recently stated that he wants gradual progress at the club. While the Italian will aim for the top-four spot, he will be satisfied if the Toffees can get into European places. Everton started their Premier League season brilliantly. It was a blitzkrieg and took everyone by surprise. They were flying after picking up four wins and a draw in their opening five Premie...
Arsenal goalkeeper Bernd Leno says there is no time for the players to feel sorry for themselves after an eighth Premier League defeat of the season ramped up the pressure on manager Mikel Arteta. Sunday is an unhappy first anniversary for the Gunners boss as he reflects on a 2-1 reverse at Everton that extended their winless run to seven league matches and left them just four points above the Premier League’s bottom three. “A lot of things are going wrong for us but we don’t have time to feel sorry for ourselves, we have to fight for every ball, for our team-mates,” said Leno. “Now the confidence is not at the top level but the only thing that can be said is we should stick together and come out of this situation.” The 28-year-old German said Arsenal showed a good attitude in the second h...
Leicester City are prepared to cash in on the out of favour winger Demarai Gray in January. According to 90min, Leicester City believe that this is their final opportunity to recoup some money for Demarai Gray before he becomes a free agent in the summer. The report further claims that Tottenham and Everton are interested in signing the 24-year-old winger. It will be interesting to see if either side make a move to sign the Leicester City winger next month. The 24-year-old is yet to make an appearance in the Premier League for Leicester City and he has played just once in the League Cup for Brendan Rodgers’s side. Demarai Gray needs to play regular first-team football in order to continue his development and fulfil his potential. Therefore, a move away from Leicester City would be id...
