      Premier League clubs agree to introduce spending cap but Man Utd one of three clubs to vote against new rule

      by

      PREMIER LEAGUE clubs have agreed to push ahead with rules that would cap spending for the first time – despite opposition from Manchester United AND Manchester City.A two-hour “shareholder” meeting of the 20 clubs ended with an agreement that new regulations “anchoring” spending to the lowest earning Premier League side should be drafted ahead of the summer Annual General Meeting.Manchester United are one of three clubs to have opposed the changeCredit: GettyMan City and Man Utd were joined by Aston Villa in opposing the move, with Chelsea understood to have abstained.And the players’ union has now publicly voiced its concerns over the impact.The full measures remain to be confirmed by League legal experts.But it is likely that clubs will be restricted to spending between 4.5 and five times the TV revenue of the lowest-paid club from 2025-25 – bottom-placed Southampton bagged £104m last term.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLClubs agreed to move to a “legal and economic analysis” of the concept – signalling the arguments of some clubs that restricting spending might be illegal.The PFA has also stepped into the issue, with a warning that it would potentially fight the proposals.A spokesman said: “We will obviously wait to see further details of these specific proposals, but we have always been clear that we would oppose any measure that would place a ‘hard’ cap on player wages.“There is an established process in place to ensure that proposals like this, which would directly impact our members, have to be properly consulted on.”Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSChampions City were the Prem’s biggest spenders last term, with a wage bill of £423m in addition to paying agents £51.5m and an “amortisation” sum of annual transfer instalments of £145m.A cap of 4.5 times the bottom club’s income might have imperilled City and Chelsea last term – although until the full determination of what spending is included in the calculations that does NOT mean a breach would have occurred.Erik ten Hag blasts FFP rules after Man Utd were forced to flog 13 players in January – and still couldn’t sign anyoneIf agreed – a formal vote is now likely at the Harrogate AGM in June – the new measures would be introduced in “shadow” form next term, alongside a “squad cost ratio” format that links expenditure on wages and transfers to a maximum of 85 per cent of club revenues.The sides playing in any of Uefa’s three competitions will be restricted to spending 70 per cent of their income from the start of 2025.But the current Profitability and Sustainability Rules – which allow clubs to lose a maximum £105m over three seasons – will remain in force next season.Some clubs urged that the limit – which has seen Everton and Nottingham Forest deducted points and Leicester facing a similar punishment next season –  should be raised for next term but it was not widely supported.

      Why Man Utd flop Antony celebrated with photographer after scoring first Premier League goal of the season

      by

      MANCHESTER UNITED big-money flop Antony has been hiring a personal photographer to get pictures of him in ‘action’.The Brazilian winger scored his first Premier League goal for the club this season and celebrated with the photographer behind the goal at Old Trafford.Antony has been hiring a personal photographer to get pictures of him in ‘action’Credit: RexNow it emerges he is regularly on-hand to collate a catalogue of Antony pictures for the player’s own private collection, for social media postings and endorsements or advertising.It is unclear whether the photographer has got through one roll of film this season given the players poor performances although there are apparently plenty of ‘stills’.Fans have grown increasingly angry with the £85million Brazilian winger’s performances this season which have resulted in him being axed from the United starting line-up.But he was in on Saturday for the home game against Burnley due to Marcus Rashford’s absence.READ MORE ON MAN UTDHe scored a cracking opener in the 65th minute before The Clarets went on to share the points with a late penalty.Antony celebrated with his teammates and put a spare ball under his shirt.He then went over to his friend the photographer and hugged him before lifting up a Sonic The Hedgehog toy which the snapper had brought along in case his employer scored.The Hedgehog had spent nearly the whole league season in hibernation but was finally brought out as Antony picked it up in celebration.Most read in FootballAntony, 24, said afterwards that the celebration was for his son who loves the Sonic character.The ball under his shirt was a show of affection to his wife who is expecting a daughter.Sky Sports pundit puts head in hand after Man Utd icon Roy Keane makes public U-turn over Erling Haaland live on TVAntony said: “Sonic is my son Lorenzo’s favourite cartoon. He loves. He is growing up and is incredible, a little partner in my life, he makes me happy every day. “And we are also very excited for the arrival of our little Lavinne. A baby who is already very loved by everyone.”God has been very good to our family. I’m happy to score a goal, I was looking for that, to be able to pay homage to them, as they give me motivation to continue my work in the best possible way with the United shirt, which I respect and love so much.”It was his first Premier League goal since April of last season but he has scored twice in the FA Cup this season against Newport and Liverpool.Players having their own personal photographers at games is not unique to Antony with a number of other United players having them present.Stars at other clubs also have them and have gained access to the touchline at Old Trafford when their players visit.Sonic the Hedgehog is an action comedy which could describe United’s season.READ MORE SUN STORIESTheir draw with Burnley on Saturday combined with Aston Villa taking a point at home to Chelsea means the Red Devils mathematically have no chance of reaching the top four this season.At best they can get into the Europa League either through staying in the top six or in the unlikely outcome of them beating Manchester City in the FA Cup Final.Antony celebrated with a Sonic The Hedgehog toy in a nod to his sonCredit: Alamy More

      Sky Sports pundit puts head in hand after Man Utd icon Roy Keane makes public U-turn over Erling Haaland live on TV

      JURGEN KLOPP was genuinely surprised to hear it, on the January day when he announced his intention to quit Liverpool at the end of the season.
      It was put to him that Sir Alex Ferguson had told his Manchester United players in the summer of 2001 that the coming season would be his last.
      Ferguson later performed a U-turn and stayed at Old Trafford for another 11 years.
      But the great Scot admitted that revealing his intentions had been the ‘biggest mistake I made’.
      “I think a lot of them put their tools away,” said Ferguson, “They thought, ‘Oh, the manager’s leaving’.”
      It was a part of English footballing history which Klopp knew nothing about and he raised his eyebrows when he was told about it.
      Liverpool were top of the Premier League, having lost only a single domestic match all season – and that a controversial VAR-infested affair at Tottenham.
      But their form has nosedived since, with dreams of a farewell quadruple long gone.
      And Klopp may well now be reflecting on the wisdom of his announcement.

      How Pochettino can solve Chelsea’s midfield crisis thanks to the works of a 13th century poet

      by

      IT IS HIGHLY unlikely that Mauricio Pochettino is familiar with the work of Rumi.Whether the renowned Islamic poet and mystic had the tactical dilemmas facing Chelsea’s head coach in mind while dreaming up his scholarly works in 13th century Afghanistan, we will never know.Mauricio Pochettino’s side have struggled for any consistency this seasonCredit: AFPThe Argentine may not be aware of the works of RumiCredit: Getty – ContributorIt’s fair to say Rumi was not a regular in The Shed at Stamford Bridge. Yet one of his most famous quotations strikes right at the heart of Pochettino’s problems trying to transform his team into consistent challengers at the top end of the Premier League.It was Rumi who wrote so prophetically: “Two birds tied together. They will not be able to fly even though they have four wings.”He could have scribbled that on the back of his programme from so many of Chelsea’s games this season with regard to Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez.And it is with that in mind that an unfortunate hernia issue for one half of the most expensive midfield duo in British football could turn out to be a blessing in disguise that even Rumi wouldn’t have seen coming.READ MORE ON CHELSEAThere is a feeling among regular Chelsea watchers that while it is a blow on a personal level for Fernandez to be ruled out for the rest of the season with his injury problem, it may yet turn to Pochettino’s advantage.For it allows Caicedo to roam that patch in front of his defence with greater freedom.Both players are exceptional individual talents.Caicedo was superb for Brighton last season, prompting Chelsea to splash a potential British record £115million on the Ecuadorian.Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSFernandez is a World Cup winner aged just 23. A quick look at his YouTube highlights underlines the dazzling skills in his feet.You cannot blame Chelsea for being tempted with both players. Yet put them together and maybe this is part of the reason why the club cannot drive at the opposition, why they cannot press for large chunks of games and why they seem unable to break from defence as quickly as other top teams can.Mauricio Pochettino claims VAR has ‘damaged’ five things in scathing rant after ref changes mind over late Chelsea goalIt is not such about how Chelsea play with the two players treading on each other’s toes as part of the same line-up – it is more about what happens when one is NOT there.Take the recent 6-0 destruction of Everton for example. Fernandez missed the entire game because of his fitness and illness issues according to the head coach.Consequently, Everton were ripped to shreds, with Caicedo partnering Conor Gallagher in midfield – a player who can play as both forward thinking with a ‘safety first’ approach too.As a result, Chelsea went into the following Saturday’s FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City in bubbly mood but with Fernandez back in the side.They created chances but failed to produce the goal which would have surely been enough to see off a leggy City team who dribbled one in with just minutes to go of normal time.Moises Caicedo was given freedom to roam without Enzo Fernandez next to himCaicedo was much more subdued alongside the Argentine against ArsenalFernandez played primarily on the right side of midfield against the GunnersCaicedo was everywhere against Everton in Fernandez’s absenceGallagher started the season as a holding midfielder for Chelsea for the first ten games. He was man of the match in the opener against Liverpool.Carney Chukwuemeka was played as a ‘number ten’ supporting the attack.The midfield was fluid then Pochettino settled on Fernandez and Caicedo as what is known as ‘double sixes’ : leaving Gallagher in no-man’s land.With Fernandez now out until next season, Gallagher can partner Caicedo as a bridge between midfield and the forwards.In particular he can leave the ‘ten’ role to Cole Palmer, infinitely better suited to that than Gallagher as the 20 goals this season underline.Chelsea have five games left this season to discover if this new formation works consistently. If it does then it may store up problems ahead for when Fernandez is fit again.If Pochettino remains in his job until next season, he will find it awkward not playing a £106m World Cup-winning midfielder every week.READ MORE SUN STORIESTry telling your boss the nine-figure footballer he splashed out on is a luxury. That is when the real trouble will start.But Rumi probably already knew that years ago.Moises Caicedo’s role has varied in recent weeksCredit: GettyEnzo Fernandez has suffered a season-ending injuryCredit: Getty More

      MAURICIO POCHETTINO
      Belle went after Poch when he axed Silva for Chelsea’s 4-2 defeat to Wolves earlier this year.
      She said:  “It’s time to change. If you wait any longer it will be too late.”
      Belle later apologised after Silva was summoned to a meeting with his boss.
      But she was at it again this month after the 5-0 defeat to Arsenal, posting emojis to signify “see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil.”
      TIMO WERNER
      Belle Silva slammed Werner’s poor finishing after he fluffed his lines in Chelsea’s Champions League semi-final win over Real Madrid in 2021.
      Belle said: “This is karma, guys. Every team I go to there is a striker who keeps missing goals… this Werner, what is his name?”
      In another video she added: “We need a goal, we need to win this match but my attackers don’t want to score, I don’t know why they don’t score.”
      GRAHAM POTTER
      Belle once liked a tweet labelling Potter a “deadbeat coach” during his ill-fated reign last season.
      And after he dropped Silva from Chelsea’s XI, she wrote on social media: “I just think that going back or looking for solutions when you take a hasty and totally wrong attitude is not wrong #goblues.”
      STAMFORD BRIDGE
      Belle let rip at Chelsea’s décor team when they failed to put up a photo of Silva after redecorating the ground.
      She said: “Today I went to Stamford Bridge, and I noticed that the photos changed around the stadium. But I don’t see a photo of @tsilva3 anywhere. Why @ChelseaFC?”
      COMMENTATORS
      Belle went on the offensive after a commentator criticised Silva’s lack of effort in one match.
      She roared: “I’m here in my box at Stamford Bridge. I just listened right now to the commentator, who said that Thiago Silva is not attacking enough.
      “Respect Thiago Silva because Thiago Silva arrived yesterday, Thiago Silva played for Brazil, Thiago Silva is very tired, Thiago Silva is 37 years old, he plays like he is 20 years old.
      “So respect him, he’s not a machine. He needs to relax, alright?
      “Very difficult to see what I see on TV. At home the situation worsens because I don’t know how to help, what to say. Very sad @tsilva3 you aren’t alone.”
      ANDY ROBERTSON
      Belle took aim at the Liverpool star after he appeared to gloat over a tackle made on Jorginho.
      She wrote: “Chilwell is better than u dude you even lost to Southampton.”

      Silva said: “When I started here, it was during the pandemic so there wasn’t any fans in the stadium. “But through social media, it became something very special to me and then when the fans started coming back to the stadium and life was getting back to normal, I started to feel a lot of affection and respect for my story and for my start here.“The way in which I came to the club, with the support of the club, I got to the club as a leader even though I didn’t feel like it, having arrived as the new guy. “It’s always difficult to integrate but bit by bit I became part of the group and Lampard played a big part in that. I am grateful to him for that.“Not even in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I could achieve such great things and win one of the best professional titles, the Champions League, at one of the biggest clubs in the world.“Goodbyes are for those that leave and don’t come back.
