MARCUS RASHFORD’S goals have been vital for Manchester United this season, but he is not the most important striker in the Premier League. The Red Devils ace has netted 15 league goals this season which has helped the club into the Champions League spots. Rashford, 25, netted his most recent goal last night – a crucial one against Brentford in his club’s 1-0 win. The next most prolific player in the squad is Bruno Fernandes, 28, with five goals. Rashford has netted an impressive 36 per cent of Man United’s 42 league goals this season. The Old Trafford side are the lowest scorers…

LISANDRO MARTINEZ HAS warned his team-mates they can no longer ‘disrespect’ Manchester United with weak performances. The Red Devils got back on track with their first win and first goal in four league games with the 1-0 victory over Brentford on Wednesday night. That followed a 7-0 humiliation at the hands of Liverpool, drab goalless draw at home to Southampton and 2-0 defeat at Newcastle where they were easily second best. Centre-back Martinez said: “It’s not possible when you lose this kind of game, especially against Newcastle. “Now every game is a final and you have to play with passion, you have to be ready, you have…

EVERY time Kevin De Bruyne or Mohamed Salah put in a Man of the Match performance, Chelsea fans are hit with a pinch of ‘what might have been’. Unfortunately for Blues supporters, those two are now undisputed world superstars. But, before they reached their current elite level, they were once allowed to leave Stamford Bridge as underplayed, underachieving youngsters. And they’re not the only two either. We’ve taken a look at SIX players who could have been starring in West London, if they had not failed to make the grade at Chelsea before going on to become superstars elsewhere. It’s enough to…

DARWIN NUNEZ’S partner has left shocked fans in stitches with her X-rated sushi joke on Instagram. Lorena Manas, the ex of former Barcelona star Aleix Vidal, was out for a meal with the Liverpool striker when she shared a picture on social media. The snap showed the former Benfica striker tucking into some food surrounded by plates. But Lorena turned the air blue around the Reds ace with her caption. The mum-of-two wrote: “The two things I like to eat the most.” Fans were left astonished by the post with hoards of supporters replying with cry-laughing emojis. Lorena and Nunez met when the now-Liverpool…

From stage crashing to secretly record phone calls, here’s a breakdown of the decade-long feud between Taylor Swift and Kanye West It’s no secret that Taylor Swift and Kanye West’s relationship can be described as volatile at best. The pair’s bad blood first became news when the rapper ambushed Swift’s acceptance speech for Video of the Year at the 2009 MTV VMAs — for which he later apologized. But after years of tension and a long-awaited reconciliation, Swift and West seem no closer to making up than they were following the rapper’s February 2016 release of “Famous” off his The Life of Pablo album (which made jabs at the…

Missouri resident Michael Loftis adopted an “off-the-grid” lifestyle with his family four years ago when they hit the open road in an RV to explore the country. Even with four children under the age of seven, Loftis found the experience exhilarating. “We were already kind of adventurous people. We like being in secluded locations,” said the 41-year-old former real estate broker. Loftis and his family’s journey stretched from the Florida Everglades to Wyoming’s Grand Teton national park. In 2020, Loftis imagined a home base for his family to return to after their trips and began building an off-grid cabin on…

Taylor Swift has baked me a cake. It looks like Jamaican ginger cake – she calls it ‘pumpkin loaf’ – nestled inside a linen pouch bag embroidered with a cartoon wooden spoon, which she also made. She’s aware I’m alone and 6,000 miles from home, meeting her in a bistro in Beverly Hills (no PR, management or security involved), ‘and I thought there’d be nothing homey for you here in a different country’. It’s 2013 and 23-year-old Swift is not only an accomplished baker and craftswoman (and the kind of celebrity, uniquely, who woos reporters with gifts) but the most successful…

AXED Chelsea boss Graham Potter flew off for a sunshine holiday — and checked his old side’s result on the way. He spent £20,000 of his £13million pay-off on a Maldives break with his wife and three children. After changing at Dubai, he was in his Maldives-bound business-class seat when he got his phone out to see Chelsea had drawn 0-0 with Liverpool. A source said: “Graham certainly wasn’t cracking open the champagne, and, if anything, looked a little glum. “He perked up during the flight — perhaps knowing Chelsea still struggled without him gave him a lift. “He played games with his son and also had…

Mohamed Salah’s transformation into one of the best footballers on the planet has been an incredible one. The 30-year-old, who signed for Liverpool five years ago, has been at the heart of The Reds’ success domestically and in Europe over recent seasons. And he’s not done yet either, with the player set to stick around for a few more years at least thanks to a bumper new contract. He has been a machine in front of goal, scoring 156 times in just 254 games – winning three Premier League Golden Boots over the last five seasons. That deadly consistency is no doubt helped by…

LUKE SHAW gave Manchester United fans a reason to worry as he hobbled off against Brentford. The defender headed straight down the tunnel in the 37th minute of the Premier League fixture. Shaw was replaced by Tyrell Malacia by manager Erik ten Hag. As the Red Devils’ defender made his exit from the pitch he was seen holding his hamstring. It is an unfortunate blow for Shaw who was making his 250th appearance for the club. The defender only recently extended his stay the club by signing a new contract. And fans were quick to share their worry for the defender on social media. One Tweeted: “Luke Shaw…

JUST five years ago, Jadon Sancho was a relative unknown quitting Manchester City’s academy to try his luck at Borussia Dortmund. Getting £7million for the young Englishman, then just 17, appeared good business. But with hindsight being 20/20, it may be one of the biggest transfer blunders ever – up there with Chelsea getting rid of Kevin De Bruyne and Mohamed Salah. Fast forward to 2022 and England international Sancho joined City’s local rivals United after the club agreed a £73million deal plus add-ons. The now-22-year-old star isn’t the only player City let slip through their fingers… we take a look at seven of the…

Luke Shaw has signed a new deal at Manchester United which will take his service to over a decade with plenty changing since he first moved to Old Trafford as a teenager Luke Shaw became the most expensive teenager in the world when he moved to Manchester United for £30m in the summer of 2014. The left-back had risen through the ranks at Southampton and, despite some injury setbacks, the England international has played some of his best football in recent years which has earned him a new deal at Old Trafford. It means, by the end of his contract, he’ll have spent over…

CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN is back in first-team training in a huge boost for Manchester United. The Danish star has been missing since the end of January after he was poleaxed by a reckless challenge by Reading’s Andy Carroll in an FA Cup tie at Old Trafford. The tackle had big ramifications on United and left them to dive into the transfer window on deadline day to land Marcel Sabitzer as a replacement. But Erik ten Hag has confirmed that Eriksen is back in training and could be back soon. But the Dutchman said his recovery won’t be quick enough to see him take part in their next…

Chelsea versus Liverpool is the most played English football fixture in the 21st century. These two sides have met 71 times in the last 23 years – a rivalry filled with European Cup battles, domestic cup finals and historic clashes. But this in reality felt like a game between eighth and 11th, as it was. It was a game filled with mistakes and thus, it was the class of N’Golo Kante, on his first start since August, that truly stood out on what was otherwise a forgettable game of football. This was a night of change at Stamford Bridge. Six in total for…

Jordan Henderson and Alisson were involved in a furious argument during Liverpool’s 0-0 draw with Chelsea. Liverpool rode their luck at times as they made away from west London with a point having been under sustained Chelsea pressure for much of the evening, with the hosts missing a gluttony of presentable opportunities. Having made six changes to his starting XI, Jurgen Klopp might have been expecting a bigger and better reaction from his players to Saturday’s defeat at the Etihad Stadium than the one he received. Chelsea, pressing for an opener, almost found one after a bit of miscommunication between Alisson and Fabinho almost allowed them…

The Italian forward failed to impress in three years at Anfield after signing from Roma in the summer of 2012 for £10.5million, with Borini the first signing of Brendan Rodgers’ tenure as manager. Borini scored just three goals in 38 appearances for Liverpool before departing for Sunderland in 2015. Eight years…
