Oliver Glasner's recent decisions in the managerial market have sent a clear message across European football. By turning down two contract offers within the last six months, the Austrian coach has underlined not only his confidence in his own abilities, but also his ambition to remain in the Premier League and eventually take charge of a genuine top-tier club. This was not a rejection of opportunity, but a calculated move

Former Arsenal and France striker Thierry Henry will be honoured with the Lifetime Achievement award at BBC Sports Personality of the Year. The 48-year-old, widely considered to be one of the Premier League's greatest players, retired in 2014. He will be presented with the award at the 2025 BBC Sports Personality of the Year show on Thursday, live on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from 19:00 GMT. "Football has given me everything and I gave it my all," said Henry. "To be recognised as part of its history with this Lifetime Achievement award and to have made my mark for the fans and my team-mates is something I'll never take for granted."

Sevilla attacker Ruben Vargas has been linked with a move away from the club, and multiple Premier League clubs are keen on him. Tottenham Hotspur, Aston Villa, Newcastle United and Leeds United are all monitoring his progress, and they could look to make a move for him. According to Fichajes, Leeds are already preparing a 20 million offer to sign the 27-year-old attacker. It will be interesting to see if Sevilla are prepared to sanction his departure.

Bernd Leno (Fulham): Excellent for Fulham in their 3-2 win at Burnley. I know the result looks like a close game and Fulham will say they deserved to win, but Bernd Leno made five or six good saves at the start of the game that kept them in it. Burnley will feel hard done by. Malo Gusto (Chelsea): I'm not the biggest lover of this fella if I'm being honest. I can't work out why I don't rate him but I just don't.

Manchester City have been keeping a close eye on Munoz in recent months, sources close to the agents industry have informed CaughtOffside. Pep Guardiola is said to admire the 29-year-old's athleticism, pressing intensity, and overlapping runs, traits that fit perfectly into City's high-possession, aggressive full-back system. While City's interest has yet to translate into a formal offer, sources suggest that their recruitment team has compiled extensive scouting data on the Colombian.

So they are not in doubt of what I think because and very honest about where we are as well as I was very honest it was a very bad performance. No two ways about that. But also know that to change this this will take some time. If no one gets the time, no one can turn this around. This is NOT a quick fix.

It's so disappointing, we know our performance was not what it needed to be. But, no, I don't think it will define our season. Nothing is lost today, it was a game of very few chances settled by a freak goal and we couldn't create the openings we wanted. The effort was there but the quality wasn't. We were disappointed with our creative output. We haven't delivered. It's difficult to take.

The Bees went ahead when Jordan Henderson scored his first goal for his new club in the 70th minute, striking via a post from Rico Henry's lay-off to make the 35-year-old their oldest-ever scorer in the top flight. In an often-scrappy game, the most notable event before the break was a lengthy Video Assistant Referee (VAR) check to rule out a penalty for Brentford.
