Richard Keys takes another dig at Wout Weghorst and claims that Man United is efficacious playing with 10 men with the striker from the Netherlands in the team. Man United signed Weghorst on loan in January from Burnley after releasing Cristiano Ronaldo, the superstar during World Cup.


He fared better on loan at Besiktas before his move to Old Trafford, scoring 8 goals and offering 4 assists in 16 league games. In Manchester United, Weghorst has been a mainstay team since he arrived in England the previous month but has just scored 1 goal in 10 appearances for Manchester United.

      MARCUS RASHFORD AND ANTHONY MARTIAL DOUBTFUL FOR MANCHESTER DERBY

Published / by index

Manchester United duo Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial have not reported to training, sparking concerns over their participation in the derby against Manchester City this weekend. The pair have been unable to train the Red Devils this week, which suggests they have not recovered fully from their injuries. Rashford has been sidelined since the 3-1 victory over Arsenal due to a hamstring injury.

It was expected that the English forward could use the international break to regain full fitness and return in time for the derby. However, that appears not to be the case. Martial has been out of action for over a month with an Achilles injury. A report from the Times also suggests that the duo will miss out this weekend. Rashford’s absence would be a huge blow as he has earned the reputation as a big game player, highlighted by his impressive performances this season. Continue reading

Published / by index

West Ham are reportedly plotting a move for Manchester United youngster Di’Shon Bernard, who is currently on loan at Hull City. The Hammers have been linked with a number of defenders of late. Indeed, their need for more depth in the area has been apparent this season. Injuries to Angelo Ogbonna and Kurt Zouma have placed added responsibility on the shoulders of Craig Dawson and Issa Diop.


While West Ham have continued to perform, having more options could not have hurt. Indeed, Dawson and Diop are the only senior centre-backs to have been available for a good portion of the season. The Hammers have both established themselves as top-four contenders and gone on a long European run. They advanced to the semi-finals of the Europa League on Thursday night when dismantling Lyon on their own turf. Continue reading
