David Beckham hopes Cristiano Ronaldo stays on at Manchester United | Football News – Times of India

Manchester United are set to undergo major changes after another disappointing season but former midfielder David Beckham hopes Cristiano Ronaldo sticks around for at least another year. United's 4-0 hammering at Brighton & Hove Albion at the weekend means they cannot finish higher than sixth.

Chelsea don’t need open heart surgery, says Thomas Tuchel | Football News – Times of India

Tuchel's side head to Old Trafford looking to cement their grip on third place in the Premier League, while sixth-placed United appear certain to miss out on a top-four finish.

Spurs boss Conte looking forward to reunion with Brentford’s Eriksen | Football News – Times of India

Tottenham Hotspur manager Antonio Conte said he was happy to see Christian Eriksen playing again after his cardiac arrest at last year's European Championship and looking forward to a reunion with the Brentford midfielder in Saturday's Premier League game. Denmark midfielder Eriksen helped Conte's Inter Milan win the Serie A title last season but he had to leave the club as players who have heart-starting devices implanted are not allowed to play in Italy. The 30-year-old spent seven years at Spurs before moving to Inter. He was a free agent when he joined Brentford in January and signed a contract until the end of the season.

Ralf Rangnick exposes Manchester United rebuilding task after Anfield misery

The remaining Manchester United fans inside Anfield were chanting for the club’s owners to sell up when the coaches and players were already back inside analyzing their failings in a 4-0 humiliation by Liverpool. It was a moment, before facing the media, for introspection and self-criticism by interim manager Ralf Rangnick and midfielder Bruno Fernandes at the home of their club’s fiercest rival. “What I tell them in the locker room stays there, obviously, “Rangnick said, before offering a flavour of the damning assessment. “We were just not up to it in the first half. We didn’t win a single second ball. In most of the first ball situations, we were just spectators. We were onlookers.” “If you play like that against a team like Liverpool, then it’s difficult.” Coming from the temporary...

Liverpool thrash miserable Manchester United to go top of Premier League | Football News – Times of India

LIVERPOOL: Liverpool embarrassed Manchester United for the second time this season to move top of the Premier League as Mohamed Salah struck twice in a 4-0 thrashing on Tuesday. Jurgen Klopp's men won 5-0 at Old Trafford in October and expectations of a similar rout were well-founded as Liverpool exposed the massive gulf between the sides with Luis Diaz and Sadio Mane also on target. Liverpool move two points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table, but still need the English champions to slip up in their remaining seven league games of the season to win the title. In contrast to the fine margins separating Liverpool and City, a 22-point gap now lies between the league leaders and United in sixth with only Tottenham and Arsenal's own failings keeping the Red Devils in the race ...

EPL: Ronaldo hat-trick rescues Man United amid fan anger in Norwich win | Football News – Times of India

MANCHESTER (England): Cristiano Ronaldo's 50th club career hat-trick and second Premier League treble of the season earned below-par Manchester United a 3-2 victory over Norwich City on Saturday amid scenes of fan protest at Old Trafford. With Tottenham Hotspur losing 1-0 at home to Brighton & Hove Albion earlier on Saturday, the door was open for United to close on the Champions League qualification places with victory over bottom side Norwich and they just about took advantage. A first-half double from veteran striker Ronaldo seemingly put the hosts on course for a comfortable win in the sunshine, with Norwich struggling to keep pace. However, Kieran Dowell's goal out of nowhere in first-half stoppage time got the visitors back in the contest, before Finnish forward Teemu Pukki co...

Everton lifts survival hopes with win over lackluster United

Everton gained a huge win in its fight for survival and further damaged Manchester United’s flimsy top-four hopes with a 1-0 victory in the Premier League on Saturday. Anthony Gordon’s shot from the edge of the penalty area deflected into the net off the outstretched leg of United defender Harry Maguire in the 27th minute at Goodison Park. It was another lackluster performance by United, which brought two great saves out of Jordan Pickford — both from efforts by Marcus Rashford — early in the match and was frustrated by some obdurate and at times desperate defending by Everton in the second half. Whoever is hired as the full-time replacement for interim manager Ralf Rangnick — and Ajax’s Erik ten Hag looks to be the favorite for the job — is set to arrive at Old Trafford with United out...

Wolves can’t retain Neves if clubs will pay 100 million pounds to sign him: Lage | Football News – Times of India

Wolverhampton Wanderers will do everything to retain midfielder Ruben Neves but will not be able to stand in the way of clubs willing to pay over 100 million pounds ($131 million) for him, manager Bruno Lage said on Thursday. Neves, who was instrumental in Wolves' promotion to the top flight and been their midfield lynchpin for five years, has been linked with a move to Manchester United by British media. The 25-year-old Portugal international has over two years left to run on his Wolves contract, and would command a high price tag in the transfer market. "I don't know if it's United or other teams, what I know is we have a special player here with us. What he's doing this season is very good," Lage told reporters ahead of Friday's league trip to Newcastle United. "I think also the way ...
