Three talking points from Premier League weekend

We look at three talking points from the Premier League weekend. But their return to the Champions League could come sooner than expected with Eddie Howe's men well in the fight for a top-four finish. Howe has defended the club's £220 million spend on new players over the past two windows as in keeping with their competition in the Premier League. So he could also do it in the Premier League," Ten Hag said. Jesse Marsch is now the favourite to be the next Premier League manager sacked after a run of eight games without a win.

Iranians celebrate World Cup slaying of Wales

The team sang the national anthem and in the stadium supporters did not chant slogans criticising the national team, as they had in the previous match. Many Iranians had become disenchanted with the national team and although Friday's win appeared to shift sentiments some remained unwavering. On the edges of the celebrating crowds two women, both in their fifties, had not forgotten: "We have always supported the national team but not this time. "It is our national team - not the government's - that won the victory," said Jaffar, 48, from northern Guilan province. In a statement, President Ebrahim Raisi thanked "the whole of the national team", saying their success offered "the pleasant taste of victory to the people".

Clinical Mbappe sees France through after beating Denmark

Having scored four during France's victorious 2018 campaign and one against Australia, Mbappe now has seven goals in nine World Cup appearances. More recently Kasper Hjulmand's side beat France home and away in this year's Nations League, and it seemed that Deschamps had learned lessons from those two encounters. The holders' best chances in the first half came from headers by Varane and Adrien Rabiot, but when Mbappe turned away from Joachim Andersen just before the hour mark and accelerated away, it was a sign that a goal was coming. His shot was turned behind by Kasper Schmeichel, and Griezmann then wasted a great chance shortly after, but in the 61st minute Mbappe did score. That would have been extremely harsh on France, even if they could only really have themselves to blame for not making more of their chances.

Casemiro's last-minute header scrapes a draw for Man Utd

Ten Hag's decision to lay down the law to Ronaldo could signal the beginning of the end for the Portugal attacker in his second spell with United. The only concern for United was the sight of France centre-back Raphael Varane limping off in tears in the second half after a World Cup injury scare. However, Ronaldo would surely have delivered a better finish than Rashford managed midway through the first half. Rashford didn't let that mess drain his confidence and he surged into the Chelsea area for a fierce strike that Kepa palmed away. Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah hit the bar with a second half header from Mason Mount's cross.

Barca crash out of UCL again despite spending spree

In came those star names, plus a raft of other signings including Franck Kessie, Andreas Christensen and Marcos Alonso, as coach Xavi Hernandez and the board revamped their squad, hunting for instant success. Change has come slower than Barcelona hoped for in Europe and their only win in five group stage matches was over Viktoria Plzen. Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer was injured but Barcelona did not manage to trouble his replacement Sven Ulreich even once. Bayern swatted Barcelona with ease, with goals from Sadio Mane, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting and Benjamin Pavard, and Xavi admitted it. Despite Lewandowski's supreme form in La Liga, he failed to net in either match against Bayern, his former side.

Are Neuer, Muller World Cup doubts?

Manuel Neuer and Thomas Muller – pillars of the Germany national team over the last decade – are battling to prove their fitness with barely three weeks remaining until the World Cup begins. Neuer, the 36-year-old captain of Bayern and Germany, has played no active part since Bayern's 2-2 draw at Borussia Dortmund on 8th October. I'm anticipating he will be ready for the World Cup, but I'm not a psychic. We're going to do everything we can to help him be there for the World Cup." Bayern are the hosts on Saturday against a Mainz team who led at the Allianz Arena last season before slipping to a 2-1 defeat.

Alba hails Spain coach Luis Enrique as 'best in the world'

Jordi Alba labelled Luis Enrique as "the best coach in the world" as Spain aim for World Cup glory in Qatar. Alba worked with Luis Enrique at Barcelona when he was in charge between 2014 and 2017 before the latter left and went on to become La Roja coach. A second-place finish in the 2020-21 Nations League further added to the resume of Luis Enrique, who Alba feels is the right man to lead Spain in the Middle East at the World Cup, which starts next Sunday. "For me, I have always said, he is the best coach in the world. "He is very close and helps all his team-mates and that is important for all the players and for me.
