    Harry Kane says he is enjoying his football more than ever at Bayern, crediting Kompany’s direct management and system after delivering a 36 goal debut Bundesliga season, winning the European Golden Shoe, breaking league records, then finally lifting a long awaited Bundesliga title and best player award. Kane praised Kompany for “no BS” communication and a man for man style that forces him to press, tackle and block as well as score, contrasting it with the gruelling Conte era at Tottenham. He believes his all round influence on matches, with and without the ball, is at an all time high.

    November 2025

    Manchester United slumped to a 1-0 defeat against 10-man Everton, ending a five game unbeaten run and dropping to 10th in the Premier League. Despite a man advantage for over seventy minutes, United created few clear chances and never truly stretched the visitors. Everton lost Idrissa Gueye to a needless early red card and Seamus Coleman to injury, yet still struck first through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and then defended deep. De Ligt criticised United’s passive play, overreliance on crosses, lack of runs into the box and shortage of urgency in key moments.

Citing the CJEU ruling that UEFA and FIFA acted unlawfully in blocking the Super League and a Madrid court’s refusal to overturn that judgment, A22 has sent Ceferin a formal letter demanding UEFA approve the revamped proposal within eight weeks, warning of further legal consequences if it resists.

    Enzo Maresca has urged Chelsea winger Estevao Willian to ignore comparisons with Barcelona star Lamine Yamal before their Champions League clash, insisting the teenager must focus exclusively on his own development despite already producing goals, assists and eye-catching displays in his first season in England. Maresca praised Estevao’s maturity, work rate and impact in limited minutes while stressing that comparisons can create needless pressure when he is still adapting to Premier League and European football. Chelsea view him as a long term cornerstone but plan to manage his minutes carefully as he grows.

    November 2025

    Tottenham intend to give Thomas Frank time despite a 4-1 thrashing at Arsenal, three defeats in their last five league games and a slide to ninth. The ownership still sees him as a long term appointment and are not considering a change. Club figures accept concerns over his constant rotation, with 29 Premier League lineup changes already, and some players want more focus on Spurs’ own strengths rather than opponents. Even so, the hierarchy believes stability is key and expects Frank to solve the creativity issues.

Klopp has spent almost a year as Global Head of Soccer, overseeing Red Bull’s multi club network and long term football strategy, yet Hoeness recalled Bayern’s past interest in hiring him and argued that his personality, energy and instincts still belong on the touchline.
