Manchester City hosting Liverpool is a highlight of a massive weekend for Roy Hodgson, Spurs and a Man Utd star, with some Papa Johns on the side...
. After Crystal Palace’s wretched run since the turn of the year, and Patrick Vieira’s apparent helplessness, it was of little surprise to see the Eagles make a change. But bringing Hodgson back to Palace caught everyone on the hop.
But for now, it’s all about arresting their current slump to avoid being pulled into a crazy-tight relegation fight. In April, they play six games all against opposition also scrapping for their lives, all of whom currently sit below the Eagles, with Leicester first up at Selhurst Park on Saturday. He will be assisted by Ryan Mason, who has already had a go at managing Tottenham. This is the second run-in in three seasons that Spurs will go down the home straight under caretaker leadership. Mason, upon stepping into Jose Mourinho’s shoes, got Spurs on the front foot for the remainder of the season and he will likely encourage Stellini to follow a similar path, especially if he wants to disassociate himself with Conte’s approach.
A lot has happened for McTominay in the fortnight between that outing and Sunday’s trip to Newcastle United. Last Saturday he scored twice against Cyprus for Scotland before repeating the trick against Spain on Tuesday night. That’s four goals in two games for his country after the same total in two years for United.
With Casemiro suspended for this and two more games, Ten Hag needs McTominay to curb his bursts forward and set the tempo from a deeper position. Which is something he is yet to master. Too often he takes a touch or two too many, slowing the build-up. And that’s when he can free himself to take the ball on the half-turn from his centre-backs.
Plymouth go to the final as favourites on account of their standing at the League One summit. Argyle have a five-point cushion in the automatic promotion places, while fifth-placed Bolton are scrapping for a play-off place. If the drama matches Pompey’s penalty shoot-out victory over the Black Cats, it’ll be well worth straddling the Premier League offerings either side of the 3pm kick-off.
