Manchester United voted against imposing a spending cap in the Premier League, talkSPORT understands. Clubs have agreed in principle to bring in the cap, known as ‘anchoring’, for the start of the
Sunderland may be destined for a midtable finish under Mike Dodds but it's still all to play for at the top and bottom of the Championship. It's a dramatic promotion race with four teams still competing for a top two spot, while the relegation battle is far from settled Sunderland's season hasn't gone as planned but they'll be keen to bounce back and compete at the top end of the table next time around under a new permanent manager. For now, though, here's a look at what's going on elsewhere in...
Leeds United take on Middlesbrough on Monday night and they know nothing less than a win will do as the club push to win automatic promotion back to the Premier League. Leicester City picked up three crucial points on Saturday and that means Leeds now find themselves sitting two points adrift of the top two with three games to go. Games in hand complicate things at the top, but Leeds know a win at the Riverside Stadium would be enough to move up to second until the weekend at the very least....
Newcastle have reportedly been sending scouts to keep an eye on Gallagher. They were interested in him last summer and Chelsea could be looking to sell. Chelsea is a 'CESSPIT of over-inflated egos'.. will Pochettino turn bickering youngsters into harmonious team?
Leeds United were left stunned on Friday when they were handed a shock 4-0 defeat by 17th-placed Queens Park Rangers. Despite holding the lion’s share of possession and attempting 15 shots towards goal, Daniel Farke’s side simply couldn’t find a way though and left Loftus Road with a mauling. Leeds are now at serious risk of missing out on a top two finish, as Ipswich Town are seriously threatening to unravel their efforts this season. The Tractor Boys are currently level on 90 points with the...
Leeds signed off for eight days without a game by falling to their first home league defeat of the season in Saturday lunchtime’s Championship hosting of Blackburn Rovers in which the Whites blew the chance to move back into the top two. Defeat for Leicester City at Friday night’s hosts Plymouth Argyle opened the door for Leeds for whom even a point would have taken them back into the division’s automatic promotion places, albeit having played one game more than the Foxes. As it happened,...
Daniel Farke must continue to manage his own emotions and keep himself in check over the remainder of the Championship season, says Tony Pulis. With just two more games to play over the regular season, Leeds United find themselves sitting inside the top two and that's where they'll hope to stay come May 4. Wins over QPR on Friday and Southampton on the final day of the campaign will give them the best chance of doing that, but as it stands, their fate is not in their own hands. Leicester City...
Then Leeds director of football Victor Orta turned his attention to Arne Slot during a search that unsuccessfully explored the possibility of taking Carlos Corberan from West Bromwich Albion and Andoni Iraola from Rayo Vallecano. Corberan promptly signed a new contract at the Hawthorns and Rayo Vallecano blocked Leeds’ approach for Iraola, who was not minded to force his way out of the LaLiga club. The Whites then appeared to believe Feyenoord boss Slot was potentially obtainable, until he...

Leeds United returned to winning ways on Monday night at Middlesbrough to move back into the top two. Leeds have the opportunity to consolidate that position on Friday night when they travel to face QPR for what is their final away game of the season. A win at Loftus Road would take Leeds four points clear of Ipswich in the league table and while Kieran McKenna's side will have two games in hand by that point, the pressure will well and truly be on. Leeds can only focus on themselves, of...

Football finance expert Kieran Maguire expects clubs to follow Leeds United’s example in potentially suing Everton, who could face punishment for a third financial breach. Everton have already been deducted points on two separate occasions after being found guilty of breaching the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules (PSR). One of those breaches came during the period in which they pipped Leeds to survive in the top-flight, with the West Yorkshire club among several...
