The 24-year-old former Arsenal winger started match and played for 62 minutes when he was taken off for Theo Walcott. According to WhoScored, the Nigeria international took one shot which was not on target, played one key pass, had a pass accuracy of 86.7%, took 44 touches, made one tackle, one interception and one clearance, and put in six crosses. Some Everton fans were not impressed with the display produced by Iwobi against Villa on Thursday evening. Below are some of the best comments: He only creates chances for the other team.

‘The guy is a disgrace’ – Some Tottenham fans react to the latest update on Ndombele

Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Tanguy Ndombele will miss the rest of the season with an injury. Mourinho said: “I know Ndombele will not help us because the injury will keep him out for the next two matches”. The Frenchman has had a horrible debut season with the Londoners this year. He has been struggling with injuries and form since the start. It will be interesting to see if Ndombele can turn his Tottenham career around next year. When Spurs signed him, he was expected to be a game-changer for them. The former Lyon ace is a world-class talent and his ability is beyond question. However, he will have to get himself fit in order to make an impact and justify the fee Spurs paid for him. Ndombele has been linked with a move away from Spurs already and it will be interest...

Ryan Mason & Spurs legend react as Kane grabs 201 club goals

Tottenham Hotspur striker Harry Kane scored his 200th and 201st club career goals against Newcastle United in yesterday’s 3-1 victory at St. James’ Park. The England international has scored 15 league goals in 27 appearances this term and will hope to bag a few more when his side face Leicester City and Crystal Palace in the last two games of the season. Kane has missed nine league games this term due to injury, and Tottenham could have been strongly challenging for a top-four finish had that not happen. The 26-year-old is the most prolific Englishman on the planet right now, and scoring 201 goals in 350 club appearances says it all. 185 of those goals have come for Spurs, with the other 16 for loan clubs Millwall, Leyton Orient and Leicester. Former Tottenham duo Ryan Mason and Graham Rob...

‘Once a Blue, always a blue’, ‘Wow’ – Some Everton fans love what Carragher has said

The decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sports to overturn Manchester City’s two-year ban from the Champions League has divided opinions. The Etihad Stadium outfit were initially banned from Europe for allegedly breaching Financial Fair Play rules, but they have since been declared innocent. Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher isn’t a fan of FFP and he reckons it is hindering traditional big clubs such as Everton from investing heavily in the transfer market. Clubs aren’t allowed to spend more than they earn so as to prevent them from potentially going bankrupt, but that has only allowed the rich sides to invest heavily. Carragher believes the FFP is preventing the Goodison Park outfit and co. from having a squad capable of winning silverware and challenging the heavyweights. FFP!Do...

Report: Leeds looking to beat competition to signature of France youth international

According to Goal.com, Leeds United are interested in bringing Liverpool left-back Yasser Larouci to Elland Road this summer. The 19-year-old has only played twice for Jurgen Klopp’s side since arriving from La Havre in 2017, and he wants to leave in order to get more regular first-team football elsewhere. Brentford are also keen on the France international, but Leeds could hold an advantage over others as they are four points away from securing Premier League promotion and are known for their trust in youth. Andrew Robertson and James Milner are ahead of Larouci in the pecking order at Anfield, and the French kid has no chance of becoming a mainstay anytime soon. However, he will fancy his chances under Marcelo Bielsa at Leeds, and it seems the Whites have changed their minds after The At...

Report: West Ham negotiating with La Liga outfit for 21-yr-old, player would cost £9m

West Ham are interested in signing the Barcelona defender Moussa Wague. The right-back has failed to convince the Spanish giants of his quality and he is considered as an expendable asset this summer. As per Mundo Deportivo (via Sportwitness), West Ham are negotiating with Barcelona for the player and the Hammers can sign him permanently or on a loan deal with an option to buy. If West Ham sign the 21-year-old player permanently this summer, it would cost them a lot less. As per the report, the Hammers would have to pay €10m (£9m) for Wague this summer but if they choose to loan him for a year with an option to buy, the player would cost €16m. West Ham need to sign a right-back this summer and they have been linked with Gonzalo Montiel as well. They must look to sign someone in t...

Report: Leeds expected to complete the signing of 23-yr-old for €21m this summer

Leeds United will have to fork out €21m for Jean-Kévin Augustin this summer. As per Bild (via Sportwitness), the Championship outfit have an obligation to buy the player if they secure promotion to the Premier League. The striker was on loan from RB Leipzig and he failed to make any meaningful contribution because of injury issues. Ideally, Leeds should steer clear of him this summer but that might not be an option for them. Apparently, the German side are already preparing for the striker’s exit and they could take a legal route if Leeds back out of the agreement to sign him permanently. Augustin is a good player but his fitness issues mean that the deal will be a gamble for Leeds. They need someone more reliable in the Premier League. The Whites are not financially equipped to ...

‘Go & win some trophies’ – Some Spurs fans react as EPL rival looks to sign star

Tottenham Hotspur defender Jan Vertonghen is reportedly wanted at Manchester City this summer. The 33-year-old is set to leave North London at the end of the campaign after him and the club couldn’t agree to terms of a new deal, and the Etihad Stadium outfit have him on their radar. City failed to replace Vincent Kompany last summer, and that played a huge role in their failure to mount a successful title defence. Vertonghen wouldn’t make a huge impact at the club like his countryman did, but he is a quality and experienced cover at both centre-back and left-back. The Belgium international has been at Tottenham since the summer of 2012, featuring in over 300 games across all competitions, but he is yet to win any silverware in England. That is guaranteed at Man. City given the quality of t...

Report: Hammers want to sign 26-goal striker who is now available for £12 million

According to Football Insider, West Ham United want to sign a striker this summer and will look to bring Rangers star Alfredo Morelos to the London Stadium. The Colombian is wanted by a couple of clubs in the Premier League and Europe after scoring 26 goals across all competitions for Steven Gerrard’s side in 2019-20. The Hammers are edging closer to securing their top-flight status and manager David Moyes wants to strengthen his attack going forward. Rangers could be open to the idea of cashing in on Morelos after the coronavirus pandemic hit their finances, but his £20 million evaluation has now dropped to £12 million due to the pandemic. The 24-year-old bagged 12 league goals in 26 appearances for the Light Blues this term, with 14 others coming in the Europa League qualifying round and...

Report: West Ham looking to bring former PL winner back to England, star will cost €13-14m

West Ham are interested in signing Edin Dzeko from Roma this summer. As per Calciomercato, Roma are looking to sell the player so that they can get his high wages off their books. Dzeko will cost around €13-14m. It will be interesting to see if West Ham manage to bring him back to the Premier League. Dzeko has been a superb player for Roma and despite his age, he could be a good addition to Moyes’ attack. He could partner Haller in the attack next season. The Bosnian knows the league well and he should be able to adapt quickly. Dzeko could make an immediate impact next season. It remains to be seen whether West Ham can beat the drop this season. If they go down to the Championship, they won’t be able to attract players of Dzeko’s calibre. The Bosnian has won the league with Manch...

Report claims €35m-rated Frenchman could end up joining Tottenham this summer

Marseille midfielder Morgan Sanson has been linked with a move to the Premier League this summer. As per Le Phocéen, the player could end up at Tottenham next season. The French outfit value Sanson at €35m and it will be interesting to see if the Londoners are willing to offer that kind of money for him. Spurs need to sign a midfielder this summer and they have already been linked with the likes of Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg recently. Sanson would be a good addition to Jose Mourinho’s side as well but he is a different type of player as compared to Hojbjerg. Sanson is a more creative midfielder and it will be interesting to see how Mourinho fits all these players into his starting lineup. Given the fact that Spurs have Ndombele and Sissoko at their disposal, Hojbjerg would perhaps be ...

‘No favours’: Some Leeds United fans react to Brentford result tonight

Some Leeds United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the win for Brentford against Preston North End on Wednesday evening. Brentford have got the better of Preston 1-0 at Griffin Park in the Championship this evening. Ollie Watkins’s goal as early as the fourth minute proved to be the difference between the two sides. The result means that Brentford remain third in the Championship table with 81 points from 44 matches, just a point behind second-placed West Bromwich Albion. Leeds are at the top of the standings with 84 points from 43 matches and have a game in hand. That match is against bottom side Barnsley at Elland Road on Thursday evening. Leeds need just four points from their final three matches to secure automatic promotion to the Premier League. However, had Brent...
