Sunderland are battling for a top-half finish heading into their final games of the season having seen their play-off bid tail off in a major way. The Black Cats have gone through two managers and now find themselves searching for a new permanent boss ahead of the summer. But how do the club compare to their rivals when it comes to money spent on agents? The FA have now published the figures for the Premier League and Championship, and here we round up all of the clubs from the second tier and...
Manchester United are prepared to play the waiting game for Dan Ashworth – which could hand under-pressure Erik ten Hag a stay of execution. Ashworth has agreed to become Man United’s first ever sp
Leicester City man Conor Coady will be watching the Foxes' promotion rivals through his fingers this weekend. Leicester are second in the Championship table at present, a point behind league leaders Ipswich Town and a point above Leeds United, who have won just one of their last five games. Enzo Maresca's side have a game in hand to their advantage, which will be played next week against Southampton, but the final three weekends of the Championship season promise to be tense and full of drama. ...
Leeds United continued to stutter in the Championship promotion race after losing 1-0 at home to Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. A first home defeat of the season came at the worst possible time, with Sammie Szmodics’ calm finish in the 82nd-minute proving decisive. Leicester City’s defeat at home to Plymouth Argyle handed Leeds the chance to reclaim a top-two spot but another poor attacking display saw points dropped for a fourth time in the last five games. Later on Saturday, Ipswich Town were...
Ipswich Town remain hopeful that Wes Burns will be able to make some impact on the remainder of their Championship season. Burns has been missing since picking up a hamstring injury before the international break. The issue saw him drop out of the Wales squad last month, while he has been forced to watch three key games in the Championship promotion race from the sidelines as the Tractor Boys push for promotion to the Premier League. His absence was probably felt by Kieran McKenna's side last...
Leeds United dropped out of the Championship’s top two on Saturday as their 15-game unbeaten run came to an end at Coventry City. Daniel Farke’s side lost the game 2-1 and that ensures they now sit third in the table, behind league leaders Leicester City and Ipswich Town. As such, the Whites know nothing less than three points will do when they return to action on Tuesday night to host Sunderland at Elland Road. In fact, it’s fair to say the Whites need to pick up at least something close to...
Leeds United are closing in on the end of their 2023/24 Championship campaign with only four games remaining to determine whether they go up automatically or face the play-offs. A run of one win in four has seen Daniel Farke’s side drop out of the top two but points dropped elsewhere means they are within touching distance of Ipswich Town and Leicester City. Leeds host Blackburn Rovers on Saturday afternoon and can climb back into the top-two, even if only for a few hours before Ipswich host...
Former Leicester City defender Christian Fuchs has thanked Coventry City for doing them a ‘tremendous favour’ by beating Leeds United on Saturday. Leicester put themselves back in the driving seat for automatic promotion after beating Birmingham City 2-1 on Saturday, although they needed a late Stephy Mavididi goal to do so. The Foxes climbed from third to first with the win, having seen Ipswich Town lose at Norwich City before Coventry beat Leeds 2-1 at the CBS Arena. The last week has proved...
Madrid beat City on penalties to. The defending champions have often been blasted for supposed lack of history. Exhausted Man City?! We're all tired, but it's dangerous to spread that message. Big games are what it's all about: Listen to the
Leeds approached Saturday afternoon’s clash at Coventry City sat in the division’s second automatic promotion spot, one behind leaders Ipswich Town and one point above third-placed Leicester City who have played a game less. The Whites then received a huge boost in the day’s lunchtime kick-off as Ipswich fell to a 1-0 defeat in the East Anglian derby at Norwich City, putting United’s automatic promotion destiny back in their own hands ahead of kick-off at Coventry. But Daniel Farke’s Whites then...
Man City wanted to poach Kobbie Mainoo from United when he was younger. Mainoo gave a glimpse of what they're missing by donning a sky blue jacket. Could Erik ten Hag find himself back at Ajax? Listen to the
The City fans had gathered outside of the Etihad stadium in anticipation for their Champions League quarter-final second leg tie against the Spanish outfit, when Ferdinand appeared.
