The return of the Egyptian King! Salah shines against Brighton
Liverpool are by no means back to their best. And nor is Mohamed Salah. But there were enough positive signs from both in Saturday night's 3-0 FA Cup fourth-round win over Brighton to suggest that this most trying of seasons might actually end on a positive note for the Reds. Arne Slot's men were actually quite flat in the first half, perhaps exhausted from the effort required to end Sunderland's unbeaten home record in the Premier League in midweek, but they still went into the interval ahead thanks to Curtis Jones' close-range finish from Milos Kerkez's cross.

Foden's struggles continue in City's laboured win over Salford
It's just as well Manchester City once again spent big during the January transfer window, as Marc Guehi and Antoine Semenyo were needed off the bench to help Pep Guardiola's men overcome Salford City in a surprisingly competitive FA Cup fourth-round clash at the Etihad on Saturday afternoon. Despite being gifted an early lead through Alfie Dorrington's own goal, City struggled horribly to break down their League Two opponents, while at the same time giving the visitors a couple of clear sights of goal.

Analysis J. Duran
How Duran's career has gone from sublime to bizarre at age of 22
Still just 22 years old, Jhon Duran has joined the sixth club of his increasingly nomadic career and his third in the space of just 12 months, making the controversial decision to head to Russia and sign for Zenit St Petersburg. It is a little over a year since the former Aston Villa hitman was being linked with European giants Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Chelsea, but after spells in Saudi Arabia and Turkey, the striker is already drifting further into obscurity.

Opinion R. De Zerbi
Would De Zerbi really be able to hack a top-level job?
The official confirmation of Roberto De Zerbi's Marseille departure arrived at 2:35 on Tuesday morning. In that sense - and that sense alone - the timing of the news was odd. But there was nothing else remotely surprising about De Zerbi's exit. It had been coming for some time, and Sunday's humiliating 5-0 loss to Paris Saint-Germain at Parc des Princes was obviously the final nail in De Zerbi's coffin.

Door open for Pochettino! Spurs to appoint Tudor without permanent option
Tottenham have acted swiftly to replace Thomas Frank by verbally agreeing a deal with Igor Tudor to take charge until the end of the season. Crucially, the deal does not include an option to make the move permanent, meaning the hunt for a long-term successor remains wide open for the summer, keeping the dream of a Mauricio Pochettino reunion very much alive for the Spurs faithful.

Spurs hatch Pochettino plan after sacking Frank
Tottenham Hotspur are interested in reappointing Mauricio Pochettino as head coach after sacking Thomas Frank. The club languish just outside the relegation zone, in 16th, just five points clear of West Ham United in 18th. They may have to wait until after the 2026 World Cup, however, to extricate Pochettino from his current job as the United States' men's national team manager.

Liverpool's great escape is on! New signings starring in WSL
Only four teams in Women's Super League history have ever endured a longer wait for a first win of the season than Liverpool did this term. Winless through 12 matches, only Yeovil Town, Doncaster Rovers Belles, Everton and Reading had ever experienced more barren streaks in the competition than the Reds, whose status as the former two-time WSL champions made their case stand apart as the most shocking and surprising of the five.

Analysis Manchester United Women
January transfers have made Man Utd a UWCL threat
Manchester United simply had to act in the January transfer window. The Red Devils had enjoyed a wonderful start to the 2025-26 season, most notably qualifying for the Women's Champions League proper for the first time and then going one further by putting themselves in this month's knockout rounds. But if they wanted to be competitive against Europe's best, and at the sharp end of domestic competitions, they needed more in the squad - and that's the approach United took.
