Manchester United's humbling defeat at the hands of their bitter rivals Liverpool on Sunday has seen manager Erik ten Hag set an unwanted club record. A Luis Diaz double and a second-half strike from Mo Salah inspired the visitors to a defiant 3-0 win over United at Old Trafford. Such victories from opposition sides are usually a rarity at the home of the 20-time English top-flight champions. However, times have changed since Ten Hag arrived through the door at Old Trafford and it is not the first time United fans have seen embarrassed at home.

Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola bemoaned two controversial VAR decisions that succumbed his side to defeat by Arsenal. Kai Havertz was awarded a penalty by referee David Coote after making contact with goalkeeper Mark Travers in the area, before hitting the ground. And then in the second half, the Cherries' Philip Billing had a goal chalked out after Dominic Solanke was adjudged to have fouled David Raya in the build-up.

Liverpool has reached an agreement to recruit Bournemouth's head scout Mark Burchill, just days after Reds poached them to be their sporting director

Although a deal has yet to be agreed upon, Burchill is expected to be the newest addition to the Reds' lineup as they brace for the post-Jurgen Klopp period. Richard Hughes, Bournemouth's former transfer boss, has been named as the club's sporting director, with Michael Edwards returning as Football's CEO. Burchill was instrumental in Bournemouth's transfer relations and helped with signings such as Nathan Aké, David Brooks, and Philip Billing.

Bournemouth 1-1 Nottingham Forest: After Callum Hudson-Odoi called out Justin Kluivert's opener for the hosts, the Cherries fought out a draw, after replacement Philip Billing is sent off

www.dailymail.co.uk, February 4, 2024
PATEL AT THE VITALITY STADIUM: Time will tell how important this moment will be for Nuno Espirito Santo and Nottingham Forest, but for now, this puts them up to 16th and, importantly, two points ahead of Everton in the relegation zone. Nuno's time at Nottingham Forest began in December with an agonizing last-minute loss to Bournemouth, but they were rescued by a moment of brilliance from Callum Hudson-Odoi after Justin Kluivert gave Bournemouth a lead early. Forest failed to make their man advantage count despite receiving a red card for a reckless attack on Hudson-Odoi in the 84th minute. In 2024, both sides were still winless in the Premier League.

TRANSFER CONFIDENTIAL: Michael Edwards' return to Liverpool would make perfect sense, and Man United are trying to bind down a young celebrity, while Chelsea's £60 million price tag for Conor Gallagher puts the club off, although clubs are dissatisfied with the Chelsea's £60 million price tag for Conor Gallagher

SIMON JONES: Jurgen Klopp's pending departure, as well as sports director Jorg Schmadtke, has sparked a never ending discussion about how Liverpool will recover. One of the most common comments around Anfield is that it would be a good idea to tempt the club's former sports director Michael Edwards back to a new role. Edwards left Liverpool just over a year ago and was regarded as the brains behind Liverpool's impressive recruiting process. He's since founded Ludonautics, alongside Liverpool's former director of research Ian Graham, who is now working with a Premier League club and forming a Bolton Wanderers partnership last week.

SIMON JONES: Newcastle's Unitrd has held talks with Saudi Arabian side Al Shabab over the potential transfer of midfielder Miguel Almiron, but an agreement on a contract has been described as 'unlikely' at this point. Talks are set to continue. Newcastle must sell to finance a new midfielder, such as Bournemouth's Philip Billing, but the team is insisting that Kieran Trippier will not leave the city despite Bayern Munich's interest.

Joelinton may have played his last Newcastle game during a contract dispute... the club could have to sell a star if no one comes back from the club this summer if there is no agreement on the new contract

www.dailymail.co.uk, January 18, 2024
EXCLUSIVE: Joelinton, a Newcastle midfielder, may have played his last game for the club in the midst of a labor fight that might almost certainly result in him leaving if no agreement is reached before the summer. According to Mail Sport, the Brazilian will underwent surgery next week on the thigh injury he suffered during the FA Cup victory over Sunderland last month, and it will keep him out for the remainder of the season. Joelinton's deal, on the other hand, has only 18 months to run; he signed a six-year contract after leaving Hoffenheim for £40 million in 2019, and his latest wage demands are beyond what the club's hierarchy is able to pay. It would make him Newcastle's highest earner.

CHRIS WHEELER: Erik ten Hag is a man who has run out of answers ahead of a critical week. There is no evidence or strategy for Man United's Man United's manager; it's all just white noise

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 10, 2023
CHRIS WHEELER: Sir Jim Ratcliffe (inset): Do your job properly and well, and with a smile. Prepare thoroughly and if you don't know the answer to a question, but never twice.' As Erik ten Hag (centre) faced the media on Saturday after enduring another depressing low in Manchester United's season, he explained how he and his players had just been trained by Bournemouth. Ten Hag used a lot of words but came across as a boss who is running out of answers. 'I wanted something different,' the Dutchman wistfully said, and you may have imagined Ratcliffe's definition of rigour as being the "opposite of winging it." Ten Hag seems to be a man who doesn't know what to expect from his team from one week to the next, which is baffling considering that he has been in the game for 18 months and spent £400 million on new players.

CHRIS WHEELER AT OLD TRAFFORD: Erik ten Hag accepted responsibility for Manchester United's latest humiliating loss, but admitted that his players are not strong enough to function on a regular basis. Bournemouth defeated 3-0 winners at a dazzling Old Trafford for the 11th time in 23 games this season. Ten Hag's side was fined for another bad start, this time on the wrong side of their match, three days after outplaying Chelsea.

Phil Neville ripped into Manchester United after their season dropped to a new low with the 3-0 loss to Bournemouth, but he doesn't believe Eric ten Hag will be fired just yet.

After an amazing midweek win over Chelsea that puts the focus right back on Ten Hag, Phil Neville believes he will remain as United coach for now.

CHRIS WHEELER AT OLD TRAFFORD: If this is the right direction Erik ten Hag is going, God will assist Manchester United if they ever take the wrong route. United's first week after feeling like they couldn't do any worse in Newcastle's loss, they managed it at a rain-swept Old Trafford on Saturday, although perhaps not do justice to an outstanding Bournemouth effort. Ten Hag's team outplayed Chelsea here in midweek, in between. Inconsistent hardly begins to describe them.

The Dutchman stood eerily still in front of the dugout at the end of the game, almost remarking on what he'd seen in front of him. United didn't appear to have named him Premier League Manager of the Month for November as resentment reverberating around Old Trafford following the 3-0 loss to the Cherries. Dominic Solanke opened the scoring after just five minutes, before the team's second half goals from Philip Billing and Marcos Senesi secured the victory for the south-coast club. As everyone around him began to leave the pitch and return to the changing room, the Dutch boss remained motionless at the end of the game.

The Bournemouth midfielder's spectacular 35-yard lob smuggish Burnley to their eighth loss of the season and the Cherries' first Premier League victory of the season, but a historic five-minute VAR check put the game to a good start. Both of these teams are strong candidates for relegation this season, and for good reason. Bournemouth had failed to win any of their nine league matches leading up to Saturday's matchup, but Burnley's nascent Championship triumphs faded rapidly. On the rain-battered south coast, however, at least there was a fight between two dogged teams determined to prevent the sinking.
