Man Utd vs Everton: Complete head-to-head record

Image
Manchester United and Everton have an unusual rivalry. While there's definitely no love lost between the two clubs, they are unified in the joint hatred of the same team; Liverpool. That said, Game s between the Red Devils and the Toffees always carry an electric edge, especially at Goodison Park. Some great players have turned out for both teams, most notably Wayne Rooney but also the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Mark Hughes and Marouane Fellaini. There have been some thrilling matches between the two sides over the years, so here are five of the best and their complete head-to-head record.

Mikel Arteta vs Unai Emery: Complete head-to-head record

Image
Few know the pressure that Mikel Arteta faces in the Arsenal dugout better than Unai Emery. Arteta's compatriot was once in charge at the Emirates Stadium, only lasting a year-and-a-half in north London before getting the sack. Written off by large sections of the British media, Emery went on to achieve great things back in Spain and has also made wonderful progress since returning to the Premier League with Aston Villa. However, Arteta, who succeeded Emery as Arsenal's permanent manager, has been creating his own revolution with the Gunners as they continue to fly high under his guidance. Arteta's meetings with Emery may not have been plentiful, but they have been significant. Here is the complete head- to -head record between the two Spanish coaches.

Bayern Munich striker Harry Kane breaks 2022-23 Bundesliga top goalscorer record…in 11 games!

Harry Kane surely couldn’t have dreamt of making a better start to life as a Bayern Munich player, with his goals coring numbers in the first few months of the season reminiscent of how Erling Haaland kicked off his Manchester City career last year. Such has been the England captain’s form in front of goal, his two goals against Heidenheim on Saturday mean he has already passed the tally posted by the top goals corers in the 2022-23 Bundesliga…after just 11 Game s! Lewandowski’s goals tough to replace...for one year Although Bayern ultimately ended up winning an 11th successive title last season, they only just pipped Borussia Dortmund on the final day and were hampered by not having a top-class centre-forward following Robert Lewandowski’s departure to Barcelona. The goalscoring charts across the season reflect that, with Niclas FĂĽllkrug of Werder Bremen and RB Leipzig’s Christopher Nkunku sharing the Golden Boot with 16 goals apiece . Bayern’s top league scorer was Serge Gnabry...

Portland Timbers announce Phil Neville: tweets controversy, MLS record

Image
Portland Timbers have confirmed the appointment of Phil Neville as head coach. The former Manchester United and Everton player has had a varied managerial career, most notably spending two years in charge of Inter Miami . His spell in Florida ended in June and he was a part of Canada coach John Herdman’s backroom staff over the summer. “We are thrilled to welcome Phil Neville as the new head coach of the Portland Timbers , and we look forward to making Phil and his family feel at home in Portland,” general manager Ned Grabavoy wrote in a statement. A new era in Portland.

Why history is on Tottenham's side after record-breaking 20-point haul

Image
It was a summer of peaks and troughs for Tottenham supporters. Once the disappointment of failing to land either Julian Nagelsmann or Arne Slot wavered, genuine excitement emerged regarding the club's long-term outlook with Ange Postecoglou at the helm. The Aussie's arrival was complemented by the surefire addition of James Maddison, as well as a new number one in Guglielmo Vicario and partner for Cristian Romero in Micky van de Ven. Spurs had seemingly done plenty of good in Ange's first transfer window, but the departure of Harry Kane, whose future was up in the air throughout the summer, had the potential to undermine the initial promise. For many, Brennan Johnson, while a nice coup in isolation, wasn't enough to make up for the exit of their all-time record goalscorer. Some bemoaned a lack of depth in key positions, too, once the transfer window slammed shut. Despite these gripes, the Big Ange train has continued to churn at the start of 2023/24. The formative peri...

MotoGP Japanese GP: Martin smashes lap record for pole

Martin posted a 1m43.198s on his first run in Q2 on Saturday morning to beat Brad Binder's Friday benchmark, which in turn surpassed Jorge Lorenzo's 2015 record , by almost three tenths of a second. It gives Martin a second pole in the last three races, as well as a 10th in a row for Ducati. Reigning champion Francesco Bagnaia emerged as Martin's closest challenger, improving on his final run to record a 1m43.369s, falling 0.171s short of his main title rival. KTM rider Jack Miller ensured no lockout of the front row by going third-quickest, 0.353s off the pace, having lagged behind team-mate Binder on Friday. Binder himself qualified fifth, just over half a second off the pace, with the two KTMs being split by the VR46 Ducati of Marco Bezzecchi. Bezzecchi suffered a spectacular off at the Turn 12 left-hander in the early stages of Q2, but was able to get back to the pits and mount his number two bike to back himself a spot on the second...

Real Madrid's H2H record vs 2023/24 Champions League group stage opponents

Image
Real Madrid were in unfamiliar territory as Pot 2 entrants ahead of the 2023/24 Champions League group stage as they waited to discover their upcoming opponents . Los Blancos were thrown out of the competition by eventual winners Manchester City in the semi-finals last season but a new-look side led by Vinicius Junior and Jude Bellingham is plotting success in Europe's top competition this time around. Finishing second in La Liga meant Madrid weren't in the pot for top dogs from which Napoli were drawn. The Italians are Los Blancos' main competitors for top spot in Group C, though Braga and Union Berlin will hope to cause upsets. Here is Real Madrid's head-to-head record against their upcoming Champions League group stage opponents.
