Manchester United’s 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace means they’ve now dropped seven points at Old Trafford this season. It was also the fourth time in all competitions they’ve drawn a blank at home: For comparison, the other five teams from the “big six” have only done that five times between them — and three of those were when Arsenal, Tottenham and Liverpool hosted Manchester City. But, naturally, this wasn’t Jose Mourinho’s fault. It was those cowardly players, you see? “[There was] not enough intensity, enough desire,” Mourinho said after the match. “We played a game like it is only one…

His scepticism has prompted reports that Chelsea could move to strengthen their squad in the January window, but Sarri — who has made no secret of his general disdain for the…

It has prompted speculation the 29-year-old, who has scored just once in 11 appearances this season, could seek to leave when the transfer window opens. “I don’t think so because he never told me that he wants to leave or isn’t happy to stay,”…
Manchester United’s hopes of securing a place in the Premier League top four were dealt another setback by a 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace at Old Trafford. Jose Mourinho said before the game that he was confident his team would be in the Champions League places by the end of December but, after another frustrating afternoon, that is looking increasingly unlikely. His team stopped the flow of goals conceded, which is a minor victory after shipping 21 in just 12 games to start the season, but a day that should have seen United bounce back from derby disappointment at Man…
