MATT BARLOW: Roberto De Zerbi chose not to address his players after the Aston Villa defeat and thought maybe it was for the best. Instead‚ the Tottenham boss took his raw emotions into the press conference and vented on the nature of this latest demise‚ criticising the inability of his players to recognise and react to the most vital moments in the game. In doing so‚ he touched on their leadership and maturity‚ understanding of the game situation‚ low confidence and the habit crumbling in adversity.

Roberto De Zerbi let rip at his Tottenham flops after crashing to another home defeat which will leave them marooned in the drop zone for the next three weeks. Spurs were 3-0 down in the 86th minute and Aston Villa had threatened to stretch further ahead before salvaging a little respectability with two late goals. They are winless in the first five games of the Premier League season and De Zerbi did not try to hide his emotions.

IAN LADYMAN: The Manchester United defender is not in the 27-man England squad named by manager Thomas Tuchel despite the head coach being without defenders John Stones and Dan Burn who both played in the summer tournament in America. Maguire broke the news of his exclusion last May by tweeting about his 'shock' before the World Cup party had even been announced. Meanwhile his mother Zoe said on the same platform that she was 'absolutely disgusted' by Tuchel's decision.

KIERAN GILL: As the face of the original 2022 takeover‚ Boehly became a target when the times were bad‚ and no matter how good his intentions may have been‚ the American billionaire cannot say he helped himself. An astute businessman - clearly‚ for he has made a minor profit by selling his Chelsea shares to Clearlake Capital - but a man who made more than a few faux pas. As Chelsea's supporters return to Brentford on Friday‚ they may recall their hostile hymn sheet from two years ago‚ while remembering the other times their old co-owner indulged in the odd misadventure.

Ruben Amorim has thrown shade at his AC Milan squad for not fitting his system‚ as he compared the Italian side's defeat to Benfica to his struggles at Manchester United. Amorim suffered his first defeat at the Milan helm on Thursday night as his side were beaten 2-0 by the Portuguse outfit at the San Siro in the Europa League. One of the issues Amorim persistantly complained about during his nightmare tenure at Old Trafford was that his players did not suit his style of play‚ which consists of a back three.

Young stars do not reach their potential if they have a nightmare parent behind the scenes‚ Jamie Carragher has warned. The pushy parents issue has been in the spotlight after Man United's prodigiously talented 15-year-old‚ JJ Gabriel‚ stunned the club by informing them that he wants out - a play orchestrated by his father Joe O'Cearuill. Daily Mail Sport on Wednesday lifted the lid on O'Cearuill's behaviour being a nightmare for the club‚ riling up families and making a number of outlandish demands.

NATHAN SALT AT OLD TRAFFORD: Michael Carrick insists he is not feeling the pressure as Manchester United manager after an 'unacceptable' Carabao Cup exit at the hands of Brighton. Carrick and his plays were booed off with chants of 'what the f***ing hell was that?' from the displeased supporters in the Stretford End after United blew a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2. 'We can't accept that as a group. I take responsibility for it‚' Carrick said.

The Swansea ballboy who was infamously kicked by Eden Hazard in 2013 has sold his vodka business for a staggering £300million. Charlie Morgan‚ 17 at the time‚ went viral 13 years ago when he tried to delay the then Chelsea star who was trying to grab the ball back‚ leading to the Belgian kicking him and being sent off. But that 15 minutes of fame have not turned out to be his last.

ISAAN KHAN AT PORTMAN ROAD: In the red half of Manchester‚ a 15-year-old child in JJ Gabriel is trying to force a way out of his club. It's a markedly different story in the red portion of London‚ Max Dowman‚ 16‚ lighting up Portman Road to further bolster his case of regularly breaking into the Arsenal first team. That is not a given‚ for the likes of World Cup winners Mikel Merino and Martin Zubimendi have yet to start in the Premier League this season‚ for example. Yet‚ Dowman is a mercurial talent‚ one who we'll see plenty of in the months ahead.

Refs' boss Howard Webb says that those involved in the Manchester Derby blunder were 'really disappointed' with the 'highly unfortunate' error - and has revealed that a furious United have been provided with the full transcript behind the botched VAR call which cost them the game. Despite being flagged for offside on the field‚ City forward Erling Haaland's 60th minute strike was called in for review‚ with ref Michael Oliver subsequently ordered to overturn the original decision and incorrectly allow what would turn out to be the only goal of the game. Replays showed that while Haaland was onside‚ City team-mate Enzo Fernandez - who was clearly interfering with play - was not.

Alan Shearer did not hold back in his assessment of Newcastle's woeful 4-1 defeat by Leeds at Elland Road on Monday night‚ branding his old team's first-half performance an 'absolute s***show'. The Magpies legend was furious after watching Matthias Jaissle's side concede twice in the space of two minutes just past the half-hour mark‚ and his misery was compounded when Dominic Calvert-Lewin added a third moments before the break. 'An absolute s***show from the Toon. 3-0 at HT is embarrassing‚' Shearer posted to social media platform X in a fury at half-time.

CRIAG HOPE AT ELLAND ROAD: Unbeaten in three at the outset of the Premier League and lauded for their summer business‚ autumn and winter might not be so cheery on the evidence of this horror show. Matthias Jaissle's side were three down by half-time‚ and it was no surprise at all. Be that on the basis of what played out here or‚ more so‚ what your eyes have told you in the past 10 days. An unconvincing 1-0 win at Millwall in the Carabao Cup came on the back of an equally sketchy 2-2 draw at home to Bournemouth‚ in which they trailed by two after 35 minutes.

IAN LADYMAN: If Enzo Maresca is lucky we will one day look back and ask when it was we finally felt he had truly taken hold of Pep Guardiola's Manchester City and claimed it as his own. If he is really lucky and if he does enough and wins enough to stick around for the long-term‚ then we may reflect on derby day in September 2026 as the day we finally drew a line under the years of Guardiola genius. So far it's been a slow burn for Maresca at City and that's because Guardiola still has his name and his principles running right through this City team. Phil Foden‚ Erling Haaland‚ Ruben Dias‚ Rayan Cherki. It's impossible not to see the great Catalan in so much of what they do.
