Black Cats stop Gunners’ run
Regis Le Bris believes Sunderland’s 2-2 draw with Premier League leaders is worth it armory This was a “good lesson” for his young team.
The Black Cats ended the Gunners’ 10-match winning streak when Brian Brobby scored in injury time to earn a 2–2 draw at the Stadium of Light.
He said: “It is still difficult against a team like Arsenal, one of the best teams in Europe, so you have to do a masterclass otherwise it is impossible to win anything.
“We still have a really young squad, really young players without great experience in the Premier League, so it’s a good lesson.”
Ruben’s “problems” for in-form United.
Ruben Amorim has lamented Manchester United’s inability to beat Tottenham and insists they still have “a lot of problems” after a dramatic 2-2 draw.
Matthijs de Ligt struck deep in stoppage time to salvage a point for United in north London after leading 1-0 in the 84th minute.
“We have a lot of problems. We are just at the beginning. I know sometimes the results show people that we are improving. We are improving but we have a lot to do,” Amorim said candidly.
Estevao lifts Chelsea
Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca admitted Estevan Willian “raised the energy” inside an anxious Stamford Bridge before helping Wolves beat Wolves 3-0 to move up to second in the Premier League.
The Blues were criticized at half time, but performed well in the second half against the division’s winless team.
“I was very anxious before this game,” Maresca said.
“I can understand that in the first half people were not happy because we didn’t score. Then when Estevao came on, the energy went up because people like that kind of player.”
Guardiola supports Rodri bounce back
pep guardiola Are “100 percent confident” that Rodri will be at his best for Manchester City.
The Ballon d’Or winner has faced repeated frustrations in his efforts to recover from a serious knee injury and is unlikely to risk against Liverpool.
But Guardiola said: “I’m 100 percent convinced that he will come back and play. Maybe it will take him a little time to reach the level he had but he is going to do it.”
“I just want Rodri to always be happy, to start smiling, to enjoy it again. It’s been hard but he is one of the most competitive footballers I have ever met in my career.
“He’s got to try to say, ‘Okay, I’ll be back, and I’ll be back and enjoy it with the team’.”
Edwards ready for Wolves return
Wolves’ search for a new manager appears to be over after Middlesbrough head coach Rob Edwards was given permission to talk to him.
Boro initially rejected Wolves’ approach for their 42-year-old boss, who had recently signed a three-year deal to replace Michael Carrick, but the lure of a return to the club where he played and coached proved too strong.
James Collins acted as caretaker manager for Saturday’s 3-0 defeat to Chelsea, but it looks like it will be a one-sided game as a statement from Boro said: “Following discussions with Rob we were disappointed to learn that he wished to speak with Wolves regarding their head coach vacancy.
“We have now agreed terms with Wolves, subject to the relevant paperwork being completed.”
