Casemiro may have felt a little lonely in the middle of the Old Trafford pitch on Monday night. With Bruno Fernandes and Mason Mount bombing forwards, the Brazilian was often left exposed. “The danger of that was plain to see, with Wolves firing off 23 shots during the game. With some better finishing, the result could have been very different. “It’s interesting then that the same Man Utd side comes to play a Tottenham team today who, under new boss Ange Postecoglou will look to flood the midfield. “Yves Bissouma and Pape Sarr will be there. James Maddison will looking…

Chelsea have spent over £900m on players since Todd Boehly’s ownership group took control of the club last year; Guardiola says City pay a fair price for players or use their academy; Spanish boss also says City will need to look at transfer options in wake of Kevin De Bruyne’s injury.

Fulham vs Brentford, Saturday 3pm Is there are a more underrated player in the Premier League than Rico Henry? He’s been consistently performing at this level for two seasons now, showing strong one-on-one defensive nous and providing a huge threat when joining attacks. The fact that he hasn’t even been considered for a spot in England’s 26-man World Cup squad speaks volumes.
