Brighton apologise over Kaoru Mitoma photo storm

Kaoru Mitoma (Brighton)
November 2025

Brighton faced backlash after Mitoma and an academy player posed holding FC-style cards featuring an image resembling former Japanese Imperial Army officer Hiroo Onoda, with the post going viral in China given the historic atrocities linked to Japan’s wartime regime. The club issued a formal apology, stating they “sincerely” regretted any offence caused and distancing themselves from the imagery after the post spread widely on Weibo, triggering a PR crisis that underlined the sensitivities around using historical military figures in promotional content.

Chelsea face brutal trend in title showdown at Arsenal

Chelsea
November 2025

Chelsea head into a top-of-the-table clash with a grim statistical backdrop, having won just one of their last eleven league games against Arsenal. The Blues sit second and in form but remain six points behind an almost flawless Gunners side. Arsenal have fourteen wins and two draws in sixteen league matches and are on a six-game unbeaten run at Stamford Bridge from previous meetings. Under Arteta, their derby record has been dominant, turning a once even rivalry into a lopsided series that Chelsea must overturn to stay in the title race.

Manchester City join race for Forest star Elliot Anderson

November 2025

Manchester City have moved into pole position in a three-way battle with Manchester United and Liverpool for Forest midfielder Elliot Anderson, who is now valued privately at around £100m after emerging as one of the Premier League’s most complete young midfielders. City scouts and decision-makers rate his versatility as a number 6, 8 or advanced midfielder and view him as a long-term piece to ease Rodri’s burden. Forest do not plan to sell in January, but accept that a major post-World Cup bid next summer could force their hand.

Nicolas Jackson set to return to Chelsea after Bayern loan

Nicolas Jackson
November 2025

Jackson’s Bayern stay will almost certainly end as a straight loan, since he cannot reach the appearance threshold that would trigger a £56.2m obligation to buy. AFCON absences and limited starts mean the 40-start clause is now mathematically impossible. The Senegal striker has only six qualifying starts and will miss more games while on international duty, leaving Bayern with no automatic purchase requirement. Despite a fractured relationship with Chelsea and Enzo Maresca, his agent still hopes to negotiate a permanent move away from Stamford Bridge.

Ange Postecoglou linked with Leeds job as pressure grows on Daniel Farke

Ange Postecoglou
November 2025

Leeds United’s alarming start under Daniel Farke has sparked speculation that the board could act if results worsen, with Ange Postecoglou unexpectedly emerging as a candidate to replace him and Brendan Rodgers also mentioned as an alternative option for the struggling club. Seven defeats in 12 have left Leeds 18th, with a brutal run against Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool looming and Farke’s Premier League record under intense scrutiny. Postecoglou’s attacking philosophy still appeals despite his brief Forest spell, while Rodgers’ name persists in boardroom discussions.

Slot “almost confused” by Liverpool’s league collapse

Arne Slot (Liverpool)
November 2025

Arne Slot admitted he is “almost confused” by Liverpool’s disastrous Premier League run, with the defending champions losing six of their last seven league games and sitting in the bottom half despite heavy summer investment and three wins from four in a strong Champions League campaign. Pointing to big-money arrivals such as Isak, Wirtz, Ekitike, Kerkez and Frimpong, Slot insisted the squad has enough quality and noted recent European victories over Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Eintracht Frankfurt. However, he conceded that “far too many games” have been lost domestically and that he has yet to “find a winning way” in the league.

Slot under fire as Forest hammer Liverpool in Anfield crisis

Arne Slot
November 2025

Liverpool’s season hit a new low with a 3-0 home loss to Forest, their sixth defeat in seven matches, dropping the champions to 11th and handing them their heaviest Anfield league defeat in four years as Murillo, Savona and Gibbs-White exposed soft defending. Slot admitted the result was “a smack in the face” before PSV’s visit, a remark that angered many supporters who feel his tone understates the crisis. With Liverpool already having lost more league games than in the entire title season, pressure and scrutiny on his methods are intensifying.

De Ligt questions United’s approach after limp defeat to 10-man Everton

Matthijs de Ligt (Manchester United)
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.

Amorim lashes into Manchester United after woeful loss to 10-man Everton

Ruben Amorim
November 2025

Ruben Amorim admitted Manchester United “deserved to lose” after falling 1-0 at home to 10-man Everton, warning his side are nowhere near competing for top spots and confessing he fears a return to the damaging mentality that undermined last season. Despite Idrissa Gueye’s early red card for confronting team-mate Michael Keane, Everton dominated early, struck through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and then defended deep while United wasted 75 percent possession. Amorim said his players lacked intensity, vowed to keep working and insisted he is not walking away.

Tottenham board stand firm behind Frank despite derby humiliation

Thomas Frank
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.
