“I’m not happy with he amount of points we’ve got so far, for sure, you know,” said Carrick.

“I’m not hiding, there’s no hiding from that. I think it could have been different for a couple of little things here or there, but the reality is the reality, we’ve got to accept it, you know. We need to put things in a direction, in a positive direction quite quickly, that’s

Despite the late elation sparked by Solanke’s 92nd-minute equaliser, Tottenham remain in the relegation zone with just three points from their opening six matches.

It is just the fourth time the club have failed to win each of their opening six games of a league season, after 2008-09, 1955-56 and 1912-13.

Spurs have often looked lively in attack this season, but they have lacked conviction in front of goal and

When they restructured their debt in June, United added $125m (£94.36m) to their main debt. On 23 September, they said £63.5m had been spent on land for their proposed new stadium, the precise funding model for which is still to be determined.

“It’s crazy when you think about it,” says Ryan Cardwell, former youth scout at Liverpool and Southampton.

“In what other kind of world would 15 and 16-year-olds be spoken about in the media like this?”

This summer alone, all six of the Premier League’s wealthiest clubs either signed a highly-rated academy player from another, or lost a youngster to a direct rival.

“It is such a competitive market,” Cardwell explains.

Fulham 1-1 Manchester United: Matheus Cunha rescues point for visitors

By Total Football News

Matheus Cunha’s deflected strike rescued a point for Manchester United late on to deny Fulham a first Premier League win of the season.

Lisandro Martinez’s bizarre own goal at Craven Cottage had looked set to condemn the visitors to a third consecutive defeat.

However, with just a minute of the 90 remaining, Cunha’s shot from 20 yards took a wicked deflection off Fulham centre-back David Affengruber, wrongfooted goalkeeper Bernd Leno

By Total Football News

Manchester United boss Michael Carrick says it would be “ridiculous” to start thinking how long he has left in the job after “two or three” bad results.

His side visit Fulham on Sunday after an awful week.

After United lost at home to a Manchester City side reduced to 10 men after 23 minutes, Brighton became the first side to come from two goals down to win at Old Trafford

In the 2025 summer transfer window Farke and the club’s new sporting director Adam Underwood made a point of signing tall players who could “add a special physicality” to the squad they were building for the robust demands of the English top flight.

Of the 10 permanent arrivals, eight – Jaka Bijol, Sebastiaan Bornauw, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, James Justin, Lukas Nmecha, Noah Okafor, Lucas Perri and Anton Stach – stand more
