Mour than sorry
Tottenham star Lucas Moura has apologised for his red card at Everton.
With Spurs 1-0 up against the 10-man Toffees last night, second-half sub Moura was given his marching orders after a dangerous challenge on Michael Keane.
To make matters worse for the 30-year-old Brazilian, Keane dusted himself off to thunder home a last-gasp equaliser just minutes later.
With the draw damaging Tottenham’s hopes of securing a top-four finish, Moura took to Instagram to say sorry for his rash tackle.
He said: “There are good days and bad days, today is a bad day for me. No one is more frustrated than me.
“I made a mistake and I accept that. I am not this kind of player and I didn’t mean to do that.
“Sometimes for the sake of milliseconds, something totally different happens than what you planned.
“I want to apologise to my team-mates, the staff, the fans and the club. I will keep working hard to help the team as much as I can until my last day at the club.”
Shaw thing
Luke Shaw has signed a new four-year deal with Manchester United.
The England left-back, who became the most expensive teenager in history when he moved to Old Trafford from Southampton in 2014, has been rewarded for his impressive displays under Erik ten Hag this term.
Shaw, 27, said: “Nine years ago, I signed for this amazing club and I’m thrilled to be extending my stay.
“I’ve grown immensely since coming to Manchester all those years ago, both as a person and as a player. I know what is needed to succeed at a club like this.
“We’re at the beginning of our journey under the manager and his coaching staff. We’ve been successful already this season but we want much more.
“There’s a great opportunity to create something special here and I’m going to give everything to be part of that.”
Shaw was in Ten Hag’s starting XI as United beat Newcastle 2-0 in the Carabao Cup final in February.
Theatre of screams
Thomas Frank is confident Brentford can cause Manchester United more problems at Old Trafford tomorrow.
The Bees thumped Erik ten Hag’s men 4-0 at home last August.
And while Frank knows the return fixture will be a tough assignment, the Dane insists his side will play with no fear at the Theatre of Dreams.
The Bees boss, 49, said: “I know it will be unbelievably difficult. They will come flying out and fighting for every single ball.
“They’ll be showing unbelievable determination, they’ll be on top of everything and their skill set is absolutely frightening when you look at the players they have in their squad.
“It will be difficult but we believe in ourselves that we can do something.”
