Tottenham open talks with Jesse Lingard after Mourinho requests transfer

Transfer Info, Premier League

Tottenham have reportedly opened talks with Jesse Lingard after Jose Mourinho told Daniel Levy to sign the Manchester United star. Lingard has fallen down the pecking order at the club and even failed to make Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s matchday squad for the 3-1 defeat against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Premier League

Manchester United suffered a 3-1 defeat at home to Crystal Palace on Saturday and Patrice Evra feels Solskjaer is protecting his players too much. United fell behind to an early goal by Andros Townsend before Wilfried Zaha doubled the lead for Palace. Donny Van de Beek came off the bench to score, but a second Zaha goal finished the scoring.

Zidane gives brutally honest comments On Gareth Bale’s move to Tottenham

La Liga, Premier League

Zinedine Zidane has given his thoughts on Gareth Bale's move to Tottenham on a season-long loan. The French manager hasn't ever had the best relationship with the forward and it shows with his reaction to the transfer. The Welshman fell out with his Zidane last campaign and was frozen out of the team, starting onlya game since March, and their relationship became very frosty. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); That breakdown saw Bale seek a move away from the club, with Real Madrid agreeing a loan deal with Tottenham that will see the La Liga giants pay a large proportion of his wages. Zidane was influential in Real signing Bale back in 2013 and, despite their recent friction, was quick to highlight the massive role the 31-year-old has played at the club b...

Van de Beek blasts Man Utd teammates after defeat to Crystal Palace

Premier League

Donny Van de Beek scored a goal on his Manchester United debut but was left disappointed as they were beaten 3-1 by Crystal Palace in a display he described as ‘not good enough’. The midfielder came off the bench in the 67th minute and scored 13 minutes later, but the goal was not enough to rescue the Red devils from being 2-0 and then 3-1 down. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); It was a very poor performance from the United as they were outplayed by the Eagles, who secured three points with a goal from Andros Townsend and a brace from Wilfried Zaha.
