Van der Sar rates Onana above Raya in world class keepers list

Former Manchester United and Netherlands goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar has named André Onana among his small group of world class goalkeepers, placing the Cameroonian ahead of Arsenal’s David Raya in his latest ranking. In his assessment, van der Sar listed six goalkeepers as truly world class at the moment: Alisson Becker, André Onana, Thibaut Courtois, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Manuel Neuer and Emiliano Martínez, praising their consistency at the top level. By contrast, he placed Raya in a second tier of goalkeepers he believes are not yet world class, alongside names like Jan Oblak, Marc André ter Stegen, Yann Sommer, Nick Pope and Jordan Pickford. Van der Sar said he worked with Onana for several years at Ajax and remains convinced of his quality, highlighting his reflexes and ball playing ability, even though he admitted the Manchester United keeper still makes […]

Rooney warns struggling Tottenham face relegation fight

Wayne Rooney says Tottenham Hotspur are now in a relegation fight after their poor Premier League form continued with a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United. The loss extended Spurs’ winless run in the league to seven matches and left them 15th in the table, six points above the relegation zone.​ Tottenham finished 17th last season, a disappointing campaign that led to the sacking of Ange Postecoglou despite the club winning the Europa League. Rooney said on his show that, given their current form and position, it is realistic to say they are battling to avoid the drop.​ He noted that clubs such as West Ham and Nottingham Forest are picking up results, which increases the pressure on Spurs as they look over their shoulders.

Man City face Anfield test as Arsenal close in on title

Arsenal can take another big step towards the Premier League title when they host Sunderland on Saturday before Manchester City travel to Liverpool for a daunting clash at Anfield.​ The Gunners already hold a six point lead at the top as they chase a first league crown since the 2003/04 Invincibles season. Aston Villa remain third but a recent dip in form has allowed Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool to close in on the Champions League places.​ City’s latest setback came last weekend when they squandered a two goal lead in another second half collapse at Tottenham.

Age, eligibility rules blocked my Man United move — Mikel

Former Super Eagles and Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel has revealed that strict age and eligibility regulations prevented him from joining Manchester United, despite the Premier League giants’ strong interest when he was a teenager. In an interview with Sky Sports, Mikel said he was just 16 when he spent about a month training at Old Trafford, regularly working with the United first team under Sir Alex Ferguson. The legendary manager, he recalled, was keen to keep him at the club. However, Premier League work‑permit and eligibility rules for non‑European players blocked the move. At the time, foreign players from outside Europe were required to have played in at least 75 per cent of their national team’s recent senior matches to qualify. Mikel had not yet featured for Nigeria’s senior side, so he did not meet the criteria. He added […]

Why I asked my mother before signing Greenwood – Longoria

Marseille president Pablo Longoria has revealed that he consulted his mother before approving the controversial signing of former Manchester United forward Mason Greenwood in 2024, calling it one of the toughest decisions of his career. He said he wanted an opinion completely detached from football, money and club interests before giving the green light.​ Longoria explained that the club viewed Greenwood’s arrival as a huge sporting opportunity but carried out extensive due diligence on the case first. Greenwood was suspended by Manchester United in January 2022 following his arrest on suspicion of attempted rape, assault and coercive behaviour, with all charges later dropped in February 2023 after key witnesses withdrew.​ Speaking to The Telegraph, Longoria said he called his mother, Begona Longoria, a former prison system worker in Spain who once received a state medal for her service.
