MU Sancho

Carrick praises Sancho & hints at unlikely stay

Manchester United interim head coach Michael Carrick has refused to shut the door on a potential Old Trafford return for Jadon Sancho. The winger, currently rebuilding his reputation during a loan spell at Aston Villa, has struggled to find consistency since his big-money move from the Bundesliga. However, Carrick, who worked with the England international during his initial stint on the coaching staff, insists the quality that prompted United to sign him remains despite his recent exile from the first-team picture.

Hurzeler reveals texts to Arteta after Arsenal criticism

Brighton & Hove Albion head coach Fabian Hurzeler has moved to de-escalate tensions with Mikel Arteta, revealing he sent a personal text message to the Arsenal boss following his outspoken criticism of the Gunners' tactical approach. The German manager had previously taken aim at the north London side's perceived game-management techniques during their narrow 1-0 victory at the Amex Stadium earlier this month. Despite the friction on the touchline during that encounter, Hurzeler was keen to ensure his professional respect for Arteta remained clear.
