Rio Ferdinand says the only Tottenham players he would consider for Manchester United, if Spurs go down, are Micky van de Ven and Djed Spence.

April 2026

David Moyes has mocked Arne Slot’s complaints about refereeing, saying Liverpool are the last club that should feel hard done by at Anfield. He still called Slot a top coach, but made clear he was not buying the idea that Liverpool suffer regularly from poor decisions. Speaking before Sunday’s derby, Moyes said many Premier League managers would argue Liverpool historically get more than their share of calls at Anfield. The comments add another edge to a derby where Everton are chasing Europe and Liverpool are trying to halt a poor run.
