Stephen Curry
March 2026
Curry remains out with patella-femoral pain syndrome and a bone bruise in his right knee, with another evaluation set in 10 days. Golden State said he is making progress; he has missed 10 games and last played on January 30 against Detroit.
Florian Wirtz
March 2026
Slot said Wirtz is likely to miss more time with a back injury that has already kept him out of wins over Nottingham Forest and West Ham.
The back problem began in the warm-up before Forest; despite a strong January run (four goals, two assists), Slot indicated the Wolves league and FA Cup games may come too soon to risk him.
Bruno Fernandes
March 2026
Fernandes scored and assisted as United came back to beat Palace, while Lineker called him his current pick for Premier League Player of the Season. Palace led early, then Fernandes drove the turnaround and continued a league-best output run, with the piece citing seven goals and 13 assists and noting Lineker also mentioned Declan Rice as a contender if Arsenal win the title, and Haaland if City surge late.
Gary Neville
March 2026
Neville said United’s sudden shift under Carrick is hard to process and now expects a top-three finish after a strong run of results. United’s comeback win over Palace marked six wins in seven under Carrick, with 19 points from 21 and notable wins over Arsenal and Manchester City, changing the mood around Old Trafford from crisis to Champions League push.
Wayne Rooney
March 2026
Rooney was reportedly filmed/seen drinking late at a pre-Brit Awards party with two women, with Coleen Rooney not present. The report frames it as an alcohol-fuelled night at a high-end Manchester hotel hosting celebrities before the ceremony at Co-op Live, with Rooney currently doing punditry work and not on Premier League duty that weekend.
Antony
March 2026
Antony was filmed arguing with Betis fans following a 2-2 draw with Sevilla after Betis blew a 2-0 lead, despite Antony scoring an early overhead-kick opener. Betis raced into a first-half two-goal advantage and appeared in control, but their discipline dropped after the break and they conceded twice, triggering post-match tension in the stands with Antony seen reacting angrily.
Igor Tudor
March 2026
Tottenham lost 2-1 at Fulham and Tudor attacked the officials, insisting Fulham’s opener should have been disallowed for a foul by Jimenez on Dragusin. Tudor argued the push gave a direct advantage leading to the goal and said the consequence was too big to ignore, while Spurs’ poor performance and Fulham’s second via Iwobi left Tottenham with another derby defeat.
Jose Mourinho
March 2026
Mourinho said Benfica are competing in two “classifications” and suggested officiating has distorted the title race, hinting he could consider leaving if conditions do not improve. He framed a “real” table that counts and a “virtual” one he uses as motivation, saying the squad knows “what has been happening,” while speaking ahead of the Gil Vicente match with Benfica third on 55 points.
Bruno Fernandes
March 2026
Fernandes scored a penalty and assisted Sesko as United came from behind to beat Crystal Palace 2-1 at Old Trafford, moving up to third in the league. He also overtook David Beckham for Premier League matches with both a goal and an assist for United. Palace led through Lacroix, then Lacroix conceded a penalty on Cunha and was sent off; Fernandes converted the spot-kick and later created the winner for Sesko. Opta stat line cited: 18 United Premier League matches with a goal and assist, ahead of Beckham’s 17, behind Rooney (35) and Giggs (22), plus 13 league assists in the campaign.
Joel Embiid
March 2026
Embiid will miss at least three games after an MRI confirmed a strained right oblique suffered during Thursday’s win over Miami. Philadelphia ruled him out for Sunday at Boston and will reassess after back-to-back home games Tuesday and Wednesday; he had 26 points and 11 rebounds against Miami and averaged 29 points in February.
