Plus, Chelsea are once again being linked with an Arsenal star and Alphonso Davies' move to Real Madrid is edging closer. There's plenty to cover, so let's jump right in.

Ten Hag under pressure

Man Utd lost to Fulham at home and Erik ten Hag's team selection came under intense scrutiny.

The Dutchman opted to hand a starting debut to attacker Omari Forson and the thinking behind it was very clever.

His gambit didn't pay off, however, but he didn't really have many alternatives because Antony, as he admitted, has been awful this season.

Ten Hag is once again under pressure and INEOS have already identified a potential replacement.

Chelsea want Ramsdale

Chelsea are reportedly ready to move on from summer signing Robert Sanchez and are once again being linked with Aaron Ramsdale.

Sensational Saka

Bukayo Saka scored against Newcastle - his fifth consecutive Premier League goal - and matched records set by two Arsenal greats.

West Ham's next coup?

West Ham star Lucas Paqueta is once again the subject of interest from Man City.

Transfer guru Tim Steidten should look to his native Germany for a brilliant replacement.

Thuram's Nice misery

Khephren Thuram is having a bad time at INEOS-owned Nice. Man Utd's new bosses need to bring him to Old Trafford.

Transfer news

Finally, let's finish up with some more transfer news from around the world. Juventus have been left feeling insulted by an Arsenal approach for one of their biggest talents.

Man City are interested in Real Madrid target Achraf Hakimi.

Alphonso Davies' transfer to Los Blancos is inching closer as Bayern are already lining up a replacement.

Arsenal and Man Utd target Joshua Zirkzee has addressed the speculation surrounding his future.
