TOTTENHAM failed to get revenge on Bayern Munich as they were beaten 3-1 in their final Group B fixture in Germany. Despite Ryan Sessegnon netting his first goal for the club, Mourinho's men were out-muscled by the Bundesliga champions - and the Special One remained unsatisfied with the young left-back's exploits. Now they look ahead to the weekend action, as Spurs head to Wolves. Meanwhile, transfer news is in full swing, with Fenerbahce's Vedat Muriqi high on their wishlist to provide cover for Harry Kane.

Danny Rose will not look to move from Tottenham during the January transfer window despite losing his first-choice status under Jose Mourinho. Rose, 29, has not started a Premier League game since Mourinho’s arrival at Spurs, with Jan Vertonghen shifted to left-back following injury to Ben Davies.  England manager Gareth Southgate would like his players featuring regularly ahead of the European Championships in the summer but Rose will try to force his way into Mourinho’s plans rather than look elsewhere next month. The left-back intends to see out the 18 months remaining on his contract at Spurs and has not sought assurances from Mourinho during his three weeks in charge. “I’ve never had a conversation with him and I don’t see why I need to,” said Rose. “As I said before, I’m here for the next 18 months so I don’t see why I need to have a conversation with the manager. … [Read more...] about Danny Rose relishes challenge of fighting for a place under Jose Mourinho

Arsenal legend Edu is the man charged with identifying the type of manager the club want to take charge. And there is a growing feeling that Mauricio Pochettino would be their No.1 choice in the way he fits the brief of developing young players, his coaching, style of play and communication. Arsenal could not get Brendan Rodgers and fear that Pochettino may not be willing to destroy his legacy at Tottenham by joining their bitter rivals. This column has been told that West Ham sounded him out - but were told no and that he is not available until the summer. They will hope that caretaker boss Freddie Ljungberg can take charge until they get the right man in place and that may not be until the summer when Pochettino would be available after his “golden handshake” after being sacked by Spurs. However, the leading two candidates who would be available appear to be Manchester City coach Mikel Arteta and former captain Patrick Vieira, now in charge at Nice. Arsenal’s worst … [Read more...] about Mauricio Pochettino fits the bill for Arsenal as Edu tasked with finding new boss

Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder admitted he was sick of VAR after his team became the victims of the latest controversy that has prompted more widespread criticism. David McGoldrick had a goal ruled out for offside against John Lundstram during United’s 1-1 draw with Tottenham Hotspur, which the video assistant referee took 3 min 47 sec to check. Gary Lineker, the Match of the Day host and former Spurs striker, was quick to criticise the decision by video referee Jon Moss, posting a message on Twitter that read: “VAR at its absurd worst. WTF are they doing to our game?” Lineker later suggested that any incident that cannot be ruled on by VAR in 30 seconds should not be overturned because it could not be deemed clear and obvious. Wilder, who had been to a meeting of Premier League managers on VAR ahead of the Spurs game, was asked if he was sick of having to talk about it. … [Read more...] about Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder calls for changes after VAR controversy
