Man United, Man City competing for one of Europe’s most underrated stars

Manchester United and Manchester City have both performed well below expectations in the 2024/25 Premier League season thus far, though that means very different things for these two clubs. Man City are used to winning the Premier League title, so their status as a club not even guaranteed to reach the Champions League is, in a way, just as much of a shock as it is to see Man United still toiling in the bottom half of the league table despite a very active summer transfer window - and a new ownership group and manager at the helm. Both Manchester United and Manchester City could use a splash in the summer 2025 transfer window, and the two Premier League powerhouses are headed back to the Portuguese top flight for a potential boost. Trincao could be the next Bruno Fernandes in Englan...

Manchester United have a world-class Andre Onana upgrade in mind

Manchester United remain in shambles this season despite making a bevy of summer transfers last year, bringing in a new ownership group in INEOS, and even a new manager in the middle of the season in former Sporting CP phenom Ruben Amorim. It's all made no difference with Man United stuck in the bottom half of the Premier League and now even out of the FA Cup - the competition they won to spare themselves last season - after falling to Fulham on penalties. There is still so much more work to be done for Manchester United and Amorim, and, as is usual, they are being linked to some very ambitious moves on the summer 2025 transfer market; the kinds of move they may need to make in order to go from zero to hero in an increasingly competitive Premier League. Mike Maignan is one of the wo...

The only Manchester United player left to believe in

Manchester United truly and undeniably stink. The Red Devils turned in yet another putrid performance this weekend, falling on penalties in the FA Cup to Fulham, sealing their elimination in a tournament they somehow won last season amidst a sea of rotten displays domestically. Now, Manchester United don't even have the FA Cup to hang their hats on, as they remain inexplicably in the bottom half of the Premier League table despite a new ownership, an offseason filled with high-profile signings across all levels of the squad, and even a new manager appointed at midseason. With injuries continuing to derail the team's young talents, the result against Fulham was a reminder that there is only one player on this team capable of consistently delivering at the Manchester United level - a l...

How Antony will fit Real Betis: Analyzing his best position in lineup, playing style, and expectations

Manchester United spent nearly 100 million euros to bring Antony from Ajax to Old Trafford at the behest of Erik ten Hag, who coached the Brazilian forward in the Dutch Eredivisie. Despite high expectations and no shortage of individual skill, Antony failed to make an impact at Manchester United since joining in 2022 and was phased entirely out of the starting lineup, even by Ten Hag, who had given his signing every chance to succeed. Now, Antony is out, as Manchester United have a new manager in Ruben Amorim and were able to find a landing spot for the 24-year-old, jettisoning him to LaLiga side Real Betis. According to Fabrizio Romano, all parties involved have reached a verbal agreement to a loan deal that does not contain a buy option, which means Antony will be back at Manche...
