Man Utd’s £63m transfer target was ‘far from the level of Glenn Murray’ Gaetan Bong says there was ‘nothing to suggest’ Sporting sensation Viktor Gyokeres would ‘explode one day’ given he was ‘far from the level of Glenn Murray’ during their time together at Brighton. A teenage Gyokeres caught the attention of Brighton scouts with his goalscoring exploits for Swedish outfit Brommapojkarna and the attacker went on to complete a move to the Amex Stadium in January 2018. But Gyokeres failed to make an impression on the south coast, scoring just one goal in eight appearances for the Seagulls’…

 ‘It would be daft’ – Thomas Tuchel told to build England team around Chelsea star | Football Thomas Tuchel has been told it would be daft not to make Chelsea star Cole Palmer the focal point of his new-look England team. The German was appointed as Gareth Southgate’s full-time successor in October last year but officially began his new job at the start of January. And the former Bayern Munich and Chelsea boss has already been pictured in the stands at various Premier League matches as he considers the makeup of his first squad for the March international break. Tuchel…

Ronnie O’Sullivan speaks out on Ali Carter rant: ‘Do I regret saying it? Probably’ Ronnie O’Sullivan wishes he hadn’t unleashed a rant on Ali Carter after their Masters final last year, but says his comments were just ‘heat of the moment stuff’. The Rocket beat the Captain 10-7 in the Alexandra Palace final 12 months ago, extending his own record to eight Masters titles. Carter had led 6-3 but the seven-time world champion came back strongly in the second half of the match and got his hands on the trophy yet again. It was a fairly ill-tempered affair between…

Teddy Sheringham criticises Man Utd for missing out on two ‘top players’ | Football Teddy Sheringham has criticised Manchester United for missing out on transfer deals for Harry Kane and Declan Rice and says the club must get back to signing ‘top players’ who ‘lead by example’. United have spent in excess of £1.6 billion on new recruits in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era but the club have had little to show for it when it comes to major silverware. Under Erik ten Hag alone, the Red Devils splashed out in the region of £600m, with the likes of…

Darren Ferguson slammed for leaving Ashley Young’s son on bench and denying moment of history against Everton | Football Darren Ferguson has been heavily criticised on social media after leaving Ashley Young’s son, Tyler, on the bench and denying the pair a moment of history in Peterborough’s 2-0 defeat to Everton in the FA Cup. Much of the talk in the build-up to this evening’s third-round tie between League One outfit Peterborough and five-time FA Cup winners Everton had centred around the potential father-son meeting at Goodison Park. The duo were upstaged somewhat just hours before kick-off, as the Toffees…

 ‘No role for him’ – Chelsea flop told to consider January transfer window exit | Football Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku has been urged to consider his future at Stamford Bridge as he continues to struggle for minutes in Enzo Maresca’s side. Much was expected of Nkunku, who joined the club in the summer of 2023 having scored 58 goals across his final two seasons at RB Leipzig. But an injury-affected first season saw the French international make just 14 appearances in all competitions last campaign. Back fit, the 27-year-old has still found it difficult to break into the first team…

Darren Ferguson reveals Everton player ‘had a pop’ at him for leaving Ashley Young’s son on bench | Football Darren Ferguson revealed that one of Everton’s players ‘had a pop’ at him for refusing to bring on Ashley Young’s son, Tyler, during Peterborough’s 2-0 defeat at Goodison Park. The history-making meeting between the father-son pair had dominated the headlines leading up to tonight’s FA Cup third-round tie. Ferguson handed Young his first-team debut in Peterborough’s League One clash with Stevenage earlier this season and the 18-year-old was named among the visitors’ substitutes on Merseyside this evening. When Young’s old…

28 Years Later producer gives crushing update on ‘wholly different’ horror film In 2002, Danny Boyle introduced the world to a zombie-infested London with horror classic 28 Days Later with Cillian Murphy in the starring role of Jim. Months ago, the internet caught its first glimpse of the horrors waiting in 28 Years Later as the trailer for the much-anticipated sequel dropped. The rumour that Cillian, 48, was returning for this instalment spread quickly, especially as an emaciated man with a Peaky Blinders-esque trim appeared in the trailer. Despite the actor’s prominent cheekbones, it turned out this zombie was not…
