Wayne Rooney has delivered a scathing assessment of Tottenham’s current plight, warning that the London side are firmly embroiled in a relegation battle. Following a demoralising 2-0 defeat to Manchester United, Rooney suggested that Thomas Frank’s side are looking over their shoulders. However, the former England captain also offered a surprising defence of Cristian Romero after his dismissal.
Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario has admitted that his team could find themselves dragged into a relegation scrap as their poor form continued on Saturday. Spurs were woeful again as they whimpered to a 2-0 defeat to Manchester United and left them looking over their shoulders at the sides below, with only six points separating themselves from the bottom three.
Dele Alli has posted a fitness update on Instagram as he continues to search for a new club. The former England international remains without a club, having left Serie A club Como in 2025. He has also, of course, played for the likes of Tottenham Hotspur and Everton but remains club-less despite his work off the pitch.
Tottenham Hotspur boss Thomas Frank was left speechless after finding out Cristian Romero's disciplinary record following his reckless red card against Manchester United. The Argentine defender was sent off in the first half, as Spurs were condemned to a dismal 2-0 defeat at Old Trafford.
Bruno Fernandes has claimed he knew Michael Carrick would make a great manager after first working with him four years ago when he was Manchester United's interim boss. Fernandes struck as United beat Spurs 2-0 on Saturday to earn a fourth win in four matches under Carrick since he succeeded Ruben Amorim in the Old Trafford dugout until the end of the season.
Lads, it's still Tottenham! Manchester United had failed to beat Spurs in their last seven games but earned a 2-0 victory to stay in control of fourth spot in the Premier League and make it four wins in a row under Michael Carrick. The win was helped by a first-half red card for Cristian Romero and, unlike against Everton three months ago, they made the extra man count.
While opinion was divided on the decision itself, Tottenham fans were left universally fuming following yet another red card for club captain Cristian Romero against Manchester United on Saturday. The Argentine was dismissed before the half-hour mark at Old Trafford after launching into a reckless challenge on Red Devils midfielder Casemiro and crunching down on the Brazilian's ankle.
Thomas Frank has confirmed that Cristian Romero will remain Tottenham captain despite the defender’s "disgraceful" assessment of the club's transfer policy. While Frank admitted he would not have made the same public comments, he defended his skipper by noting that even he "makes mistakes weekly" in leadership. The Dane insisted the matter is now resolved internally.
Tottenham Hotspur manager Thomas Frank has refused to reveal if the club have fined captain Cristian Romero for his post-transfer deadline rant on Instagram. The Argentina international was remarkably outspoken after his side drew 2-2 with Manchester City, and the transfer deadline came and went with Spurs having signed just two first-team players amid an injury crisis.
Michael Carrick has made a significant change to Manchester United's training schedule as he continues to revamp the club's methods after taking over from Ruben Amorim as interim boss at Old Trafford. Carrick has overseen three straight wins at the club since stepping into the dugout.
Arsenal’s pursuit of silverware has come at a significant cost, with Mikel Arteta’s side facing a brutal fixture pile-up this February. Following their successful progression to the Carabao Cup final, a rescheduled trip to Wolves has been shoehorned into an already congested calendar. The Gunners now face a daunting journey to Molineux just days before a pivotal north London derby.
Tottenham’s Micky van de Ven has been told that a move to one of Europe’s true heavyweights is the "right step" for his career as Spurs continue to falter under Thomas Frank. Former Dutch star Eljero Elia has backed the lightning-fast defender for a high-profile transfer this summer, with Liverpool and Real Madrid both recently linked with the centre-back’s signature.
Atletico Madrid are ready to test Tottenham’s resolve for Cristian Romero this summer after the Spurs captain’s relationship with the club hit a new low. The Argentine World Cup winner slammed the board’s transfer inactivity as ‘disgraceful’ on social media, prompting Diego Simeone’s side to revive their interest just months after Romero signed a lucrative new contract in London.
Dele Alli is reportedly in line for a sensational return to MK Dons, the club where he began his professional career. The former Tottenham and Everton star, who has won 37 international caps for England, has been a free agent since being released by Serie A outfit Como in September, but is now stepping up his latest comeback bid.
Tottenham Hotspur captain Cristian Romero has issued a bombshell statement after his side's 2-2 Premier League draw with Manchester City and the close of the January transfer window. Spurs are currently working through a remarkable injury crisis but have made just two first-team signings to bolster Thomas Frank's squad, leaving the defender angry and frustrated.
January is a notoriously bad time for buyers because nobody ever wants to sell top talent midway through the season. There are, however, exceptions to the rule. Some clubs need to raise funds to balance the books, while others can be left with not option but to unload an unhappy player who has made it clear that he wants to join a stronger side.
Manchester City midfielder Rodri has launched into a furious tirade against Premier League match officials and VAR, claiming “they don’t want us to win”. The Ballon d’Or winner cut a frustrated figure, alongside his manager Pep Guardiola, after seeing the Blues drop more precious points in a 2-2 draw at Tottenham - with one particularly big decision going against the visitors in north London.
Pep Guardiola was unhappy that the first of Dominic Solanke's two goals stood during Manchester City's 2-2 draw at Tottenham on Sunday. City deservedly took a 2-0 lead heading into the second half but inexplicably collapsed, though the visiting manager was not pleased that Spurs' first goal was not chalked off by the referee or VAR.
Dominic Solanke scored a stunning scorpion kick goal for Tottenham as they battled back from two goals down to level matters against Manchester City. The England international striker was responsible for digging Spurs out of a hole in that contest, with his second effort of the game seeing the ball flicked home despite it dropping behind him.
Lucas Paqueta has claimed that two Premier League giants wanted him before he completed a switch from West Ham to Flamengo. The playmaker has been linked with a move back to his native Brazil for months now but it took until Friday for the £36.5 million ($50m) transfer to actually happen. But if two English sides had got their way, the 28-year-old may still be a Premier League player.
Tottenham Hotspur head coach Thomas Frank has revealed all on Spurs' January transfer window, admitting the Lilywhites failed in their pursuit of Antoine Semenyo and that the window 'isn't like Football Manager' as the club continue to seek new arrivals. Frank has come under intense pressure in north London after his side's dismal run of form in the Premier League and will hope to have the chance to turn things around on the pitch.
Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly withdrawn their interest in signing Raheem Sterling, dealing a blow to the England international’s hopes of a swift return to Premier League action in London. Despite being available as a free agent following his dramatic release by Chelsea, Spurs hierarchy have decided against pursuing the 31-year-old, citing concerns over his substantial wage demands which do not align with the club's current financial structure.
Tottenham are reportedly exploring a move to rival Inter Milan for Al-Ittihad star Moussa Diaby. The winger swapped Aston Villa for the Saudi Pro League team in a £50 million ($69m) deal in the summer of 2024, but he could be heading back to Europe in 2026. The winger is said to be open to returning to a Champions League club, which boosts Inter and Spurs' chances of signing him.
Chelsea’s dramatic Champions League resurgence could have a sting in the tail as the club faces the bizarre prospect of surrendering their home advantage due to a logistical clash with their London rivals. Liam Rosenior’s side fought hard to secure a top-eight finish, but a little-known UEFA regulation regarding city-based fixture congestion now threatens to force the Blues into a neutral venue or a fixture reversal to accommodate Arsenal and Tottenham.
