But the issue for Mikel Arteta – and it’s a good problem – is he doesn’t just have one of those players, he now has two.In the last two games, Arsenal have given Eberechi Eze and Martin Odegaard run outs in the attacking midfield…

Gary Neville has delivered his most damning verdict on Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United yet as the under-pressure Portuguese coach readies for a crunch clash against Sunderland this weekend.

United now sit in 14th, having lost three games this season, losing two and drawing one of their six fixtures, which has prompted huge concerns for Neville. Please use Chrome…

Playing more together has been a bit harder than last season because of Alexander Isak, because of [Alexis] Mac Allister, because of Conor Bradley, that Dominik Szoboszlai has played on eight, on 10, on right full-back for the reasons I just said. But we are, in my opinion, too focused on this season, but the last part of last season had a lot of similarities with the start of this season – with one exception that [in] the second part of last season we scored seven set-pieces, which led to a lot of wins, and this season we’ve conceded four,…
