Erik ten Hag is not thinking about the possibility that Manchester United will sack him after their dreadful start to the season continued with Sunday s 3-0 loss to Tottenham.
United suffered yet another humiliating Old Trafford defeat on matchday six, with Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke scoring in a routine win for Spurs, while the Red Devils saw captain Bruno Fernandes sent off shortly before half-time.
Ten Hag s side were also beaten 3-0 by Liverpool on their last home Premier League outing, making this the first time they have lost back-to-back home league games without scoring since November 2021.
Those two matches – a 5-0 thrashing at the hands of Liverpool and a 2-0 loss to Manchester City – proved to be Ole Gunnar Solksjaer s fi…
Lille midfield playmaker Renato Sanches claims he almost moved to the club s Ligue 1 rivals Paris Saint-Germain in 2018.
The Portugal international joined Lille from Bayern Munich for a club-record €25million in August.
However, the 22-year-old revealed he would have been playing in France sooner had Bayern been prepared to sell him to PSG the previous year.
It is true that I had a serious offer from PSG, Sanches told Telefoot.
But my club and my former coach Niko Kovac did not want let me go.

Roberto Mancini agreed a new five-year contract with Manchester City on this day in 2012.
However, just 10 months later the City dream had soured and the title-winning manager wound up being sacked.
The Italian manager took charge at the Etihad Stadium in 2009 and helped accelerate the club’s revolution under owner Sheikh Mansour.
Mancini was rewarded with a long-term new deal after steering City to their first top-flight title in 68 years, when the Manchester side won the 2011-12 Premier League.
Sergio Aguero’s last-ditch winner toppled QPR and saw City edge out rivals and neighbours Manchester United to claim the league crown.
Mancini replaced Mark Hughes in December 2009, leading his side to the 2011 FA Cup before swiping the English champi…
The Saints beat their divisional rivals, the Buccaneers, last Sunday to get within one win of Tom Brady’s team in the standings. Sadly, the Saints lost Jameis Winston to a season-ending injury, which has put their Super Bowl hopes in doubt.

Another week of the NFL season is upon us and we’ve got some absolute juicy NFL odds this week headlined by the Bengals and Ravens on Thursday night along with the Super Bowl matchup between the Eagles and Chiefs on Monday night.
This week’s trend report features a mixed bag of standard and weirdo trends to consider as part of your handicaps. Of course, I’ve also got a variety of Under NFL betting trends to look at as low scoring continues to dominate the season.
While Overs edged out Unders 8-6 in Week 10, Unders are still hitting at close to 60% and have been wildly profitable in primetime. Night games have gone Under in 25 of 32 games this season with Monday night Unders on an 11-1 tear!
Does this mean your NFL picks sho…
Noah Gray may be the backup tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, but he is still very much part of this offense and will be involved in the Super Bowl gameplan. The great thing about Super Bowl odds is there are a load of options even for guys that are not the stars of the game.
Gray has already seen nine targets in these playoffs and averaged a sturdy 10.9 yards per reception this season. Even if his recent volume regresses, Gray can break off one long catch that could make bettors money on the NFL odds.
After looking at the Noah Gray odds, these are my favorite NFL picks surrounding the Kansas City tight end come February 11.

The Kansas City Chiefs continue to lead the market, with the San Francisco 49ers and Baltimore Ravens hot on their heels.
While that’s not changed much from Week 1, there are a handful of teams that have seen their odds rise or fall in dramatic fashion.
Join me as I run down the latest NFL odds below.

Eric Ramsay was looking ahead to Minnesota United’s most difficult run of games since he was appointed head coach in March. A road trip featuring games in Colorado and Los Angeles in the space of five days, before returning to Minnesota, posed a logistical task as well as a sporting one. Tight schedules and travel have caught out many newcomers to MLS, but the former Manchester United assistant coach was keen to embrace that side of the league.
“Part of the appeal of this league to me, and part of the reason I wanted to take my first steps here as a head coach, was because some of the things we’re having to deal with are things you wouldn’t necessarily have to deal with at home,” Ramsay says.
“Altitude, …
