NEW Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has been urged to reunite with Hakim Ziyech by Holland legend Marco van Basten. Ten Hag worked with the now Chelsea winger at Ajax for just under three years between 2017 and 2020. Ziyech won the league and Dutch Cup during his time at Ajax and also helped the club reach the Champions League semi-final in 2019. The Moroccan then earned a big money move to the Premier League with Chelsea but things haven't gone to plan. Despite picking up a Champions League winners medal in 2021, Ziyech has struggled to nail down a starting spot. He has managed just 14 goals and 10 assists in 81 appearances for the Blues.

Firing Pep Guardiola slams Man Utd legends Patrice Evra and Dimitar Berbatov over criticism of Man City’s ‘personality’
PEP GUARDIOLA has hit back at former Manchester United stars Patrice Evra and Dimitar Berbatov over their criticism of his team. And he told the ex-Red Devils he did not see much of their character when they lost to his Barcelona side at Wembley in 2011. City came under-fire after their dramatic Champions League exit to Real Madrid earlier this month. Former France international Evra suggested Pep likes to have players who do not have personality . Meanwhile Berbatov claimed Guardiola’s men lacked focus and concentration in the Bernabeu as they allowed a place in the final to slip through their fingers. Yet City have responded to that setback in emphatic fashion by scoring 10 goals in their last two league matches to tighten their grip on the Premier League title.

Man Utd legend Rio Ferdinand explains how Steve McClaren was “ahead of the curve”
Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand described Steve McClaren’s coaching methods as “brave” and “ahead of the curve” amid speculation linking the former England manager with a return to Old Trafford. McClaren could soon become Erik ten Hag’s assistant manager when the former Ajax boss joins the club at the end of the current campaign. The former Newcastle United manager served as Sir Alex Ferguson’s right hand man between 1999 and 2001, playing a huge part in the three Premier League titles, an FA Cup , and a Champions League triumph at Old Trafford. McClaren has also worked alongside the new United boss before , except Ten Hag was assistant to the former Middlesbrough boss when he was managing Dutch giants FC Twente.

Premier League will take trophy to both Man City AND Liverpool on final day of season – but one will be a fake
THE PREMIER LEAGUE trophy will be present at both the Etihad and Anfield on Sunday - well, sort of. According to the Daily Telegraph , the genuine thing will be at Manchester City while a FAKE will be sent to Liverpool. The decision to send the real trophy to the Etihad is because the Prem leaders only need to beat Aston Villa to secure their fourth title in five years. A replica and blank medals will be at Liverpool , who are behind City by one point and still need to beat Wolves to keep their hopes alive. Premier League chief executive Richard Masters will be in Manchester with the actual trophy whereas interim chairman Peter McCormick will be at the Kop with the duplicate. When the title race goes to the wire on the final day, the winners' engraving takes place after the presentation. Read More on Football Free bets!

Premier League’s most disastrous managerial performances – from De Boer to Siewert
The Premier League has been graced by some of the finest managers in the world, but not everyone can hack it in the top-flight - and when it comes to managerial disasters, it's hard to look past Frank de Boer, who turns 52 today. De Boer was a legend in his playing days, but he was a huge flop in the dugout during his brief stint in England with Crystal Palace in a stint that is likely to never be forgotten by Eagles fans. Remarkably, his record pales in comparison to some of his managerial counterparts. Here, Daily Star Sport takes a trip down memory lane to reminisce over some of the top-flight's most catastrophic managerial stints, from De Boer's misery in the capital to the man who bossed the team that is officially recognised as the worst in Premier League history.

The Dutchman was handed the reins by Palace back in the summer of 2017 and even penned a … [Read more...] about Premier League’s most disastrous managerial performances – from De Boer to Siewert
