New signing Wout Weghorst shone for Burnley as they held Manchester United to a frustrating draw at home. Elsewhere, January’s two most active clubs met, with Newcastle United reigning supreme over Frank Lampard’s Everton. United thought they had taken the lead in the twelfth minute through Raphael Varane against Burnley, only for VAR to rule the goal out for an impact offside. The Frenchman wasn’t the one offside, but his centre-back partner Harry Maguire was adjudged to have interfered in the play from an illegal position, prompting the referee to scratch United’s lead away. There was nothing dubious about the goal the Red Devils…

Former Arsenal forward Kevin Campbell believes that despite Bukayo Saka’s phenomenal rise recently, he isn’t valued more than Manchester City’s Jack Grealish. Campbell, who netted 46 goals in 228 games for Arsenal between 1988 and 1995, also discussed the possibility of Youri Tielemans making a move to the Emirates Stadium. Midfielder Jack Grealish became the most expensive British footballer in August 2020 when Manchester City activated a 100-million-pound release clause in his Aston Villa contract to sign him. The England international was also handed the number 10 shirt. But despite plenty of expectations and hype, he’s yet to sort his feet out at his new club.…

However, a stunning volley from Jordi Alba – from the left side of the box – restored parity just two minutes later. Xavi Hernandez’s men then took the lead in the 21st minute, courtesy of new signing Adama Traore. The ex-Wolves winger raced…
Harvey Elliott, who recovered from his horror ankle injury, scored the third – and final – goal of Liverpool’s win over Cardiff City in the FA Cup fourth round. In the same round, Championship side Nottingham Forest thrashed Leicester City 4-1. An unproductive first-half gave way to a fruitful second for Liverpool, who, seeing how results panned out elsewhere, escaped any painful surprise that Cardiff City might have had in store for them. Still, without AFCON finalists Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane, Jurgen Klopp instead relied on much of his second-string attack to give him an edge over the Championship outfit. But, it was regular…
