MY ACCOUNT
The Premier League is in full flow with the weekend action immediately followed by a busy midweek fixture list.
We have plenty of reaction to the games played on Saturday and Sunday as well as a look ahead to three nights of football under the lights.
Stars of the weekend
Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool are separated by just two points at the top of the table after another rollercoaster weekend.
Steven Gerrard’s Aston Villa revolution continued with a second successive win, while Everton’s struggles under Rafa Benitez show no signs of coming to an end.
As usual, we pick out the stars of the weekend just gone.
Eyes on Liverpool
Liverpool cruised to another comfortable home victory against Southampton as their title challenge continues.
With Chelsea slipping up against Manchester United, the Reds are just two points off the top of the Premier League.
But star men Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane are heading to the African Cup of Nations at the end of December and could miss as many as six league games.
We assess whether the tournament could derail Jurgen Klopp’s quest for a second title in three years.
On a more positive note for the Anfield faithful, Tyler Morton looks like the next great player to come out of the Reds’ academy.
Morton, 19, played the full 90 minutes in their 2-0 Champions League victory over Porto last week having made his Premier League debut off the bench against Arsenal four days earlier.
We cast an eye over the midfielder, who may be given plenty of minutes during a hectic December fixture list.
Transfer Talk
It is less than five weeks until the January transfer window opens and clubs can do business again.
Our daily round-up of the latest rumours keeps you up to date with the potential deals being made in the new year.
Today the focus is on Real Madrid star Luka Modric, who is a free agent in the summer and has been linked with Manchester City.
