🔮 The Mexican was fighting for the first time in over a year since his stunning defeat by Terence Crawford in Las Vegas, Nevada, as ‘Bud’ jumped up the weight divisions to cause an almighty upset in the super-middleweight division.
🔮 Buoyed by only a second triumph at Chelsea in 36 years last weekend, Spurs’ task was made more routine by a 13th-minute red card for Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta for a studs-up tackle on Micky van de Ven. VAR intervened to assist referee Michael Oliver and it was largely one-way traffic after with Archie Gray able to open the scoring with a header after 25 minutes. Roberto De Zerbi’s team started the second half impressively and eventually doubled their lead with 17 minutes left through former Brighton centre-back Jan Paul van Hecke. It allowed De Zerbi to hand a league debut to Spurs’ teenager Luca Williams-Barnett on an enjoyable night for the north London club, but this latest defeat will increase the scrutiny on under-fire Palace boss Pierre Sage. More to follow.
🔮 Now, however, it appears that he will be retained in-post for the club’s next two matches, up to the November international break.
🔮 The stretch of poor results has plunged Carrick’s future as United head coach into serious question, with the former midfielder expected to be relieved of his duties following heavy 4-1 and 3-0 losses to both Como and Bournemouth respectively last week.
🔮 While that may work in the short-term as a caretaker or when managing sides like Cardiff or Middlesbrough, that approach will quickly get found out when trying to implement it at the very highest level. What he has not shown at all in his tenure is any kind of tactical flexibility.

🔮 BBC Sport reports that the Magpies would still be entitled to compensation should the Englishman take a new job within a certain amount of a time, as a result of a clause in his contract at St James’ Park.
🔮 Instead, ‘The Nuke’ will be taking on highly-rated semi-professionals as well as some of the sport’s up and coming talents.
🔮 However, on Thursday, the Gunners learned that their appeal had been unsuccessful, with the FA Spokesperson releasing a statement on social media to confirm the verdict, and that Dowman would indeed serve a three-game ban.

🔮 They will end this weekend in eighth place, six points adrift of leaders Middlesbrough.
🔮 Cole Palmer duly dispatched it to make it 2-0, though the margin of victory might have been much wider as Estevao saw a pair of goals ruled out for marginal offsides.
🔮 Read More Asked what his instructions were on the day, he said: "To try to occupy defenders in whatever space it may be.
🔮 Cole Palmer’s penalty made it 2-0, but the scoreline could have been far more one-sided as Estevao saw a pair of goals ruled out for marginal offsides.
🔮 A third defeat in a row, which made it nine matches without a win in all competitions for the first time since 1988-89, brought the inevitable chants of “you’re getting sacked in the morning” from home fans, but what will hurt most for United’s beleaguered manager will be the way he was let down yet again by senior players.
🔮 “Aston Villa will not allow anyone to stop our ascension in English and European football.
🔮 Alonso will explain the thinking behind his lineup before kick-off.
🔮 Carrick said he hopes those tough conversations will help United get back to winning ways: Whether that’s between me and the players, whether that’s between me, Jason (Wilcox, director of football), Omar (Berrada, chief executive) or the owners.
🔮 Chelsea didn’t mind… (but) someday you will need an operation.”
🔮 Whether he will win the title this season is more a question of ‘when’ than ‘if’.
