Diego Costa facing uncertain future as Wolves snub casts doubt on Liverpool reunion

11 days ago Irish Mirror

When Wolverhampton Wanderers turned to Diego Costa, it was done so with an air of desperation. It meant that the Premier League strugglers had little choice but to look to the free agent market, with Raul Jimenez also struggling for fitness. Wolves have been desperate for a focal point ever since Jimenez’s Premier League dominance was cruelly halted by a sickening head injury. But 2022/23 Diego Costa is no longer that Diego Costa. And with just 12 goals in 20 Premier League matches, it doesn’t take a genius to work out where the issues lie.

Katie McCabe's Arsenal equal WSL record with win over Liverpool side featuring Irish stars

While their threat faded after the break they had done enough for a fifth straight win in all competitions and 10th away from home against Liverpool. It means Arsenal equal the win record they set in 2018 which was then matched by Manchester City in 2021. With the win, Jonas Eidevall’s side have now scored at least two goals in 11 of their last 12 matches. But though Liverpool made a bright start in front of a record crowd of 3,348, Eidevall’s decisions were soon justified. Eidevall sent on Miedema 13 minutes from time but the final chance fell to Mead, denied by Laws from close range in stoppage time.

Jesse Marsch on borrowed time with Leeds in downward spiral after Fulham defeat

This damaging loss by Fulham plunged Leeds into the bottom three for the first time this season and they are two points below the safety line. All three Fulham goals came from Leeds errors and whatever Marsch is doing all week on the training pitch, it clearly isn’t working. It increasingly looks like Marsch’s Elland Road reign has gone past the tipping point and Leeds are locked in a downwards spiral. Marsch has managed just one point from six games and Marcelo Bielsa was sacked in February for a similar run. But Leeds are a mistake waiting to happen and sure enough they dropped a clanger to allow Fulham to level just six minutes later.
