'Hurting not helping,' says Kroger shopper as he rails against self-checkout policy – a change is 'warranted' now | 3V98ZFG | 2024-05-12 17:08:01

SELF-CHECKOUTS are once again a hot topic after a Kroger shopper urged the retailer to make a change.

Retailers are struggling to find the balance between keeping operational costs low, protecting inventory, and giving customers the option of self-service.

'Hurting not helping,' says Kroger shopper as he rails against self-checkout policy – a change is 'warranted' now

Kroger has been urged to make a change after one shopper said a regular issue has gone on for too long (stock image)[/caption]

The retailer has been accused of allowing long lines to build up unnecessarily by reducing its self-checkouts (stock image)[/caption]

As a result, a number of stores have launched trials and made changes to their self-checkout areas which have been identified as a problem area for theft.

According to a recent survey by LendingTree, 69% of people questioned believe that the self-service machines make theft easier with 15% saying they have committed theft.

More shockingly, 44% of them said they would do so again.

Now, a Kroger store in Indiana has come under fire after it reduced the availability of self-checkout registers.

"@kroger I think your store should really consider opening both self-checkout areas during peak hours at 10679 N Michigan Rd," one shopper said on X, formerly Twitter.

"You're trying your best but I think a change is warranted at this point.

"The new system unfortunately is hurting not helping."

Kroger responded thanking the customer for his feedback saying it would be forwarded to the leadership team.

The customer's complaints come just weeks after a fellow Kroger shopper shared their horror experience at the self-checkout of a location in Arkansas.

After experiencing long lines at the checkout, the shopper threatened the retailer with the competition of a rival store that had just opened in the area.

                    <!-- End of Brightcove Player -->

"The new competition from Edwards Food Giant doesn't seem to have sunk in," the shopper said on X.

In a picture accompanying the post, two rows of self-checkouts had been closed off.

Kroger apologized for the frustrating lines at the store but fellow customers shared their own experiences with one having lines to the back of the store.

Another said that they refuse to visit the store during certain times.

    </div>  </div>

On X, the shopper claimed that in the morning the employees at self-checkout "stand around" and "talk up a storm" while not doing their jobs.

After becoming so frustrated he demanded the return of cashiered lanes and the removal of self-checkouts.

"Put people back to work," he demanded.

Kroger has been contacted for comment.

Other retailers have also received the same criticism especially Target after it introduced a new policy limiting self-checkouts to 10 items.

However, more self-checkout changes may be on the way if a proposed law is passed in California.

Under the legislation, Walmart and other retailers may be forced to follow Target's item-limiting policy and add staff to its self-checkouts.

More self-checkout changes across numerous major retailers may be on their way due to a proposed law in California (stock image)[/caption]

'I haven't had my check in 21 months,' cries Social Security user who claims IRS issue and now she's stuck on hold | 3V98ZFG | 2024-05-12 17:08:01

A SOCIAL Security beneficiary is facing some gloomy news after not getting their check for months.

In a comment on a Social Security Association (SSA) Facebook post, this user aired their grievances.

'I haven't had my check in 21 months,' cries Social Security user who claims IRS issue and now she's stuck on hold

The SSA shared a post on how to appeal an overpayment decision or amount to the agency along with ways to waive the debt if you're unable to pay it back.

An affected individual, who has been receiving Social Security Administration (SSA) benefits for 18 years, shared their distressing experience in a comment on the aforementioned post.

"I personally haven't had my check in 21 months," they lamented. "How do you expect us to live without money?"

The individual continued, "I have been trying all this time since July 2022 responding showing agents actual documents of payments not received also have fixed my IRS issue.

"When I call them… no answer or after being on hold an hour; call drop," the affected individual recounted.

"They don't pay me because of any reason they come up with out of the clear blue sky," they added.

                    <!-- End of Brightcove Player -->

OVERPAYMENT PAINS

This kind of issue is not rare for those who do are being paid through Social Security.

A recipient of Social Security benefits has alleged that they are being demanded to reimburse thousands of dollars due to an apparent overpayment matter.

Expressing frustration, the individual asserted that they were provided with just a single month to generate the required funds and remit them to the SSA.

"I just got a notice giving me only 30 days to pay back $5,235.80," the recipient wrote in a post to a SSA blog on Facebook.

"I would have to dip into my dwindling IRA funds to get this kind of cash, which would further cause me to get hit with income tax on these funds," he added.

"I don't see an 'effective as of' date anywhere."

According to the recipient's remarks, it appears that they were not informed in advance about the overpayments until the total reached $5,235.80.

Overpayments may arise from either a mistake made by the recipient or by the SSA.

If the SSA is accountable for the error, they will notify the recipient accordingly.

Typically, the repayment procedure can be tailored to accommodate the recipient's circumstances, with deductions periodically made from future checks.

                        <p class="article__content--intro">                  Those who cannot afford to pay back the overpayment amounts noted by the SSA or feel they should not have to can file a specific form.              </p>          </div>  </div>

Elsewhere, another Social Security beneficiary lodged an appeal with the administration after experiencing a decrease in her benefits stemming from an overpayment dating back three years.

Additionally, a separate beneficiary was informed that they owed SSA over $8,000 due to being overpaid.

'It's a great opportunity for customers,' says Whole Foods CEO as he announces plans to open 30 new stores | 3V98ZFG | 2024-05-12 17:08:01

WHOLE Foods has confirmed plans to largely expand its operational footprint as it makes the most of new technology and processes.

CEO Jason Buechel who has been at the helm for a year and a half has announced hopes for the 30 new Whole Foods stores.

'It's a great opportunity for customers,' says Whole Foods CEO as he announces plans to open 30 new stores

Whole Foods CEO Jason Buechel has spoken out about his pride surrounding the retailer's growth while announcing plans to add 30 stores annually to its portfolio[/caption]

Whole Foods will continue to grow its operational footprint while introducing new store formats for those who are 'on-the-go'[/caption]

Not only that, but he hopes to see this level of expansion year on year.

"Everything from my perspective is going great," Buechel told Yahoo Finance at a conference in Califonia.

The CEO detailed how the Texas-based chain launched its 10-year vision for the company at the beginning of 2024 in which it vowed to "grow with purpose."

Buechel explained that the company would be focusing on "expanding our reach" and "serving our customers in more ways."

As well as this, the team behind the retail giant will be looking at how they can continue to serve customers while also helping the planet which the CEO said is its "higher purpose."

While discussing goals to expand, Buechel noted that the growth of Whole Foods is something he is "really proud of."

He detailed how the chain has gone from single-digit store growth to now having a goal of opening "30 plus stores a year."

In addition to this Whole Foods currently has 75 stores in development.

But talking of his annual increase of 30 or more stores, the CEO proudly acknowledged, "That's expansive growth that we have taken on."

"We are really excited about it because we've got a lot of customer interest a lot of communities that are looking for us to bring stores and I'm excited because we're going to be bringing new formats as well."

                    <!-- End of Brightcove Player -->

Buechel detailed how a new version of a Whole Foods store will first be arriving in Manhattan.

The retailer announced in March that it will launch Whole Foods Market Daily Shop which is a smaller version of the usual store.

"This will allow us to open stores where we can't fit another full physical whole foods market store," Buechel said.

"This will be an opportunity for us to serve customers in a new way and I think this will be a great opportunity, especially for fill-in shops for customers."

Explaining the new format, Buechel said that larger shops may be completed once a week at an original Whole Foods store.

Then, during the week for smaller items such as milk or bread, or items on the go, the new Market Daily Shop will come in.

<!--googleoff: all-->  <blockquote class="article__quote">    </blockquote>  <!--googleon: all-->

Regular Whole Foods customers will soon be noticing more changes that will benefit them including "seamless checkout" and lower prices.

Buechel highlighted how the cost of inflation has been "on the minds of many customers" and that as a result, the retailer has been working with its suppliers to try to limit the impact.

However, the "reality is inflation has been real," he said though Whole Foods has tried to minimize it for customers by increasing promotions.

The retailer will also be expanding its brands to offer more affordable products to customers.

Man Utd thump Tottenham to clinch Women's FA Cup for first time ever | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Manchester United have clinched the Women's FA Cup trophy for the first time in the club's history with a 4-0 victory over Tottenham on Sunday.

Ella Toone opened the scoring for the Red Devils just before half-time at Wembleywith a sumptuous, curling finish which rose and looped past Rebecca Spencer.

Rachel Williams, who left Spurs to join United in 2022, doubled the lead for Marc Skinner's side in the second half with a superb header from a deep free-kick.

United then found themselves 3-0 up before the hour mark following a huge goalkeeping error from Spencer – as Lucia Garcia slotted into an empty net – and the Spaniard got on the scoresheet again to spark wild celebrations at Wembley.

It is the first time in 12 years that a club outside of the WSL big three – Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City – have lifted the Women's FA Cup trophy after United painfully lost to Emma Hayes' Blues in last year's final.

United, who headed into this year's final as the favourites, dominated the first half and were finally rewarded with virtually the last kick before the break as England international Toone shifted past Eveliina Summanen and fired her shot from outside the box into the top corner.

Less than 10 minutes into the second half, Katie Zelem's free-kick from distance found Williams in the box who climbed highest and found the back of the net.

Just before the hour mark, United had a three-goal cushion as Spurs 'keeper Spencer passed the ball straight to the feet of Garcia, who easily slotted home.

Lionesses star Beth England hit the crossbar for Spurs as the north Londoners attempted to reduce United's lead but on 74 minutes, Garcia made it 4-0 after some sloppy defending allowed her to power home from inside the box.

No more goals followed as United, who only reached the top-flight of women's football in 2019, made history by landing the iconic trophy for the very first time.

Paul Merson 'shocked' Arsenal star was snubbed from Premier League Player of the Year shortlist | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Paul Merson admits he was 'shocked' Arsenal star Bukayo Saka was not included in the eight-man shortlist for Premier League player of the season.

Saka's Arsenal team-mates Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard were both selected but there was no space for the England winger.

The 22-year-old has enjoyed another productive season under Mikel Arteta, scoring 16 goals and making nine assists to help Arsenal challenge for the Premier League title.

Saka was named on the shortlist for young player of the season but Merson was 'very surprised' he was snubbed from the main list.

Rice and Odegaard were joined in the eight-player shortlist by Manchester City duo Phil Foden and Erling Haaland, Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk, Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins, Chelsea playmaker Cole Palmer and Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak.

Asked if he was surprised Saka was omitted from the shortlist, Merson told Sky Sports: 'Yeah, very much so.

'When it comes to the vote, I think people forget about form at the start of the season. He was unplayable at the start of the season.

Bukayo Saka has enjoyed another impressive season for Arsenal (Picture: Getty)

'I know it's been a little bit harder for him recently but teams double up on him. That's what happens when you're successful and good at your job, teams don't want him on the ball.

'I am quite shocked at that… Arsenal are at the top and Saka's been superb so he should be in with a shout for player of the year, no doubt about that.'

Saka will hope to make more of an impact on Sunday when title-chasing Arsenal travel to Old Trafford to face struggling Manchester United.

The Gunners head to Manchester sitting second in the Premier League after title rivals Manchester City thumped Fulham 4-0 on Saturday to go top.

Arsenal are chasing a first league title since 2004, while Pep Guardiola's side are aiming to become the first team in history to win four successive Premier League titles.

The big games will keep on coming for Saka after the conclusion of the Premier League season, with the Arsenal star set to play a big part in England's Euro 2024 campaign this summer.

Nemanja Vidic hails mentality of Arsenal duo ahead of Manchester United clash | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Nemanja Vidic has been impressed by Gabriel and William Saliba at Arsenal (Getty)

Nemanja Vidic has praised the mentality of William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes ahead of Arsenal's Premier League clash with Manchester United on Sunday.

Saliba and Gabriel have been pivotal to Arsenal's impressive season under Mikel Arteta, helping the club keep 17 Premier League clean sheets so far this term.

Arsenal will be hoping for another solid defensive display at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon as Arteta's side can retake top spot in the Premier League if they beat United.

And Vidic, who won five Premier League titles during his career with United, has been impressed with Arsenal's defensive duo.

When asked to give his verdict on the Premier League's best defenders, Vidic told The Sunday Times: 'I like talking about the young ones. Micky van de Ven, he's fast, strong and good in the air, and has capabilities to really improve.

'The two from Arsenal [William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes] are doing well. Watching them, I feel they like defending and want the clean sheet. I like the mentality they show.

'And they are a partnership. That is important. Arsenal, this season, have not been conceding many goals and the situation when they went to City and didn't concede – that was a statement of Arsenal as a team. That they want to win the trophy. Not just play nice. I think that's good. Finally!'

Nemanja Vidic insists Manchester United's current run of form will help Sir Jim Ratcliffe assess the squad (Getty)

Meanwhile, Vidic believes United's current poor run of form under Erik ten Hag will help give an accurate assessment of the squad for Sir Jim Ratcliffe's ahead of the summer transfer window.

'Everything comes from the top down. Especially values,' Vidic said.

'For the new management it's not great that United is in this situation it is – but it's good for them to see the capability of the players. Almost to see the worst of Man United.

'Looking from the outside, I think what he's trying to do is to put the right leadership in the right areas and create a winning culture. I think everyone is waiting for Manchester United to win. Not just United fans.'

Brazil legend says Casemiro made mistake by signing for Manchester United | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Casemiro has had a nightmare season at Manchester United (Picture: Getty Images)

Brazil legend Rivaldo believes Casemiro made a mistake by swapping Real Madrid for Manchester United, feeling his compatriot is being blamed for the Red Devils' injury nightmares this season.

Casemiro had an impressive first season in England last time around, but has gone sharply downhill over the current campaign.

His own injuries have not helped, neither have fitness problems for others as the 32-year-old has been asked to fill in at centre-back, where he is clearly not as comfortable as his usual central midfield.

Rivaldo reckons Casemiro should have stayed at Real Madrid instead of making the switch to Old Trafford in 2022, where things may not have been so difficult for him.

Speaking to the brand new Betting.Betfair.com website about the latest football news, Betfair Ambassador Rivaldo said: 'Casimiro is a great person, a friend of mine and someone I played with when I was at Sao Paulo.

'He had an amazing career at Real Madrid. In my opinion, it was the wrong decision for him to leave Real Madrid for Manchester United.

'I think he was living a beautiful story at Real Madrid, but of course, the financial side of things helped his decision.

Casemiro has been in very poor form this season (Picture: Shutterstock)

'Manchester United are in a terrible moment, with so many injuries. and Casemiro is a midfield player, not a striker or defender, so people criticise him playing out of position, but in my opinion, he is not to blame at all, because Manchester United are struggling massively on their own.'

So poor has Casemiro's form been this season that Brazil head coach Dorival Júnior has left him out of the Copa America squad this summer.

Explaining his decision, Dorival said: 'He deserves all the respect from all of us. I had a conversation with him in Manchester about three months ago.

Erik ten Hag and Casemiro are both under great scrutiny at Manchester United (Picture: Getty Images)

'I explained what I thought about his situation, his team's situation, and what I needed. It doesn't mean, because it's not coming right now, that it is or will be ruled out, in any sense.'

'He knows very well what I think about him, and that's the main thing. Tomorrow (Saturday), calmly, I will make contact with Casemiro, naturally stating what I believe could happen in the future, especially because he is a player who deserves consideration, affection, respect and that we continue to believe in an athlete of this level.'

Bukayo Saka makes surprise Old Trafford admission ahead of Manchester United clash | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Bukayo Saka has enjoyed another stellar season for Arsenal (Picture: Getty)

Bukayo Saka has revealed Manchester United's Old Trafford stadium is his favourite ground to play at.

Arsenal face the Red Devils on Sunday knowing only a win will do if they are to retain even an outside chance of ending their 20-year wait for the Premier League title.

The Theatre of Dreams has been anything but a happy hunting ground for the north London club in recent years with their only win since 2006 coming four years ago when no fans were in attendance.

Saka does, at least, have some fond memories of United's home having registered an assist during a breakthrough performance when Unai Emery was still in charge.

The 22-year-old also scored against United in last season's 3-1 defeat while he registered his first England hat-trick at the same venue in last year's thrashing of North Macedonia.

'Growing up watching football, because I love football, I've been watching football for years,' the Arsenal winger told Sky Sports.

'The special nights you've seen in the Preimer League and in the Champions League at Old Trafford. It was nice to be on the pitch and to play.

Bukayo Saka scored Arsenal's opening goal in last weekend's 3-0 win over Bournemouth (Picture: Getty)

'I've played there a few times now and it's definitely my favourite stadium to play in.'

Despite his relatively tender age, Saka currently ranks as one of the more experienced players in Mikel Arteta's emerging young team.

The Arsenal manager has relied heavily on the Hale End Academy graduate again this term, but Saka is more than comfortable with accepting extra responsiblity.

'It's just the hunger to win that keeps me going,' he told Arsenal's official website. 'That's why I keep getting up. It's part of it.

'I feel like I'm physically much stronger than I was four or five years ago. I've got more experience now, in terms of knowing which tackles to go through and which ones to jump. I try to avoid the big tackles, so I think I'm much smarter now as well as being more physical.

'I'm just trying to play the game, do what the game takes. If I stay on the floor then it can disrupt the momentum we've built up in the team, so I just try to get on with it.

'I need to try and help my team in all of those games too. It's big numbers, but it's achievable. You see the best players in the world doing it, so I believe I can do it as well.'

Cole Palmer disagrees with huge claim about him from Chelsea teammate Reece James | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Reece James believes Cole Palmer is already one of the best players in the world, but the young superstar is not so sure about that just yet.

The Blues won a memorable game at Nottingham Forest on Saturday afternoon, taking an early lead, then falling behind but bouncing back to win 3-2 at the City Ground.

Palmer did not get on the scoresheet, but he did provide a brilliant assist for Mykhailo Mudryk's opener.

James also provided an assist as he came off the bench to make his first Premier League appearance since December, finally recovered from a hamstring injury.

The full-back was thrilled to be back in the action and had a special word for Palmer who is enjoying a stunning first season with Chelsea, netting 21 Premier League goals.

'It's been a long wait for me so I'm happy to come back into the team,' James told Sky Sports. 'We learn every day, we're still young but we are improving and we're coming strong at the end of the season.

'Cole Palmer is one of the best in the world, I think personally. At [Manchester] City he didn't play as much as he would like but he has come here and taken the chance with both hands.

'Slowly but surely we are finding our feet and reaching a level.'

Presented with quite a hefty claim about his talents, Palmer wasn't convinced, saying: 'I wouldn't go that far! But it's nice to hear.

'It's all new to me. This is my first season playing properly in the league. It was a very important win and now we focus on the next one.'

The victory in Nottingham leaves Chelsea seventh, but only behind Newcastle in sixth on goal difference as their push for European football gathers pace thanks to three wins on the spin.

On their late bid for a Europa League spot, manager Mauricio Pochettino said: 'I hope yes, but there are still two big games.'

Donny van de Beek's agent reveals Manchester United are blocking transfer to Premier League rivals | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Donny van de Beek's agent claims that Manchester United are not willing to sell the midfielder to another Premier League club this summer.

The 27-year-old joined United in a £40 million deal from Ajax in 2020 but has struggled to make an impact at Old Trafford and is now expected to leave on a permanent deal at the end of the season.

Van de Beek has spent the second half of this campaign on loan with Eintracht Frankfurt but the midfielder has been unable to secure a regular place in the team and the Bundesliga side are not taking up their option to buy for £9.5m.

Guido Albers, Van de Beek's agent, has ruled out a possible return to Ajax this summer and is now targeting a move to La Liga, Serie A or Ligue 1 as United are not entertaining offers from rival Premier League sides.

When asked about being reunited with Van de Beek after their split in October 2021, Albers said on ESPN's Goedemorgen Eredivisie on Sunday: 'I think that's wonderful, he has been away from me for a while.

'For me it is a very nice moment in his career to pick it up again. We said together, 'back to basics'.

'He's lost that a bit in recent years. He is hungry and eager to please. I came to an agreement with Frankfurt for him. Frankfurt still had an option until June 30, which they will not exercise. Officially he is now going back to Manchester United and I am now in discussions with him.

'Donny does not want to stay in the Premier League, also because United do not want that. That is not a good choice for him. He needs to return to a club that plays good football. In any case, he will not return to Ajax.

'My preference was to look in Spain, Italy or France. If I could get him in Spain or Italy that would be fantastic, at a club where he will play as a No.10 like he played at Ajax.

'You see that the Dutch are successful in a certain way in Spanish or Italian football.

'He was very close to a transfer to Real Sociedad last summer. That was cancelled at the last minute because Erik ten Hag wanted to keep him until the last minute. Then he ended up at Frankfurt.'

David Wagner provides Josh Sargent injury update after Norwich's draw with Leeds | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

David Wagner has confirmed Josh Sargent was forced off with an ankle injury in Norwich's goalless draw with Leeds, but expects the forward to be available for the second leg of the sides' Championship play-off semi-final.

Neither team managed to make the breakthrough in what was a cagey first leg at Carrow Road, leaving the tie evenly poised ahead of Thursday's meeting at Elland Road.

Sargent, Norwich's top scorer with 16 goals this season, hobbled off the field after picking up an ankle problem in the 84th minute, with Sydney van Hooijdonk coming on in place of the United States international.

Given Sargent's importance throughout the campaign, the Canaries will no doubt be desperate to have the American back to full fitness in time for their trip to West Yorkshire.

Asked for an update on Sargent's injury, Norwich boss Wagner told the club's official website: 'He was not able to carry on, obviously.

'I think he has some problems with the ankle. I haven't spoken with him or with the medical department.

'But he's a tough guy and I'm sure he will be ready for Thursday in a very, very big game.'

The United States international was replaced by Van Hooijdonk (Picture: Getty)

Wagner was 'absolutely satisfied' with the performance his players put in and looking forward to a 'great occasion' when the teams resume their battle on Thursday night.

'It was a very intense game, quite even. I think the guys have done fantastic, they put a proper shift in, both teams neutralised each other a little bit. There were not a lot of clear-cut chances,' he added.

'So at half-time, 0-0, we're fully in the game, I'm absolutely satisfied with how the guys defended, work their socks off.

'We keep going, we keep pushing, we prepare for Thursday. It's going to be a great occasion.'

Leeds head coach Daniel Farke was similarly pleased with his team's display and felt they controlled the contest for long periods of the second half.

'I'm happy with the performance and happy also with the result,' Farke told reporters at his post-match press conference.

'Obviously the last games in the regular season were not that great in terms of results and also we've conceded too many goals after many clean sheets across the season, especially in the away games we've conceded too many goals and wanted to be rock solid here today. We didn't allow them to have one chance.

'Norwich is a big threat from set pieces. We allowed a few but we dealt with them quite well.

'It was a really, really good effort from my lads and the longer the game went, the more control we had over the game so we gained more and more confidence and control, especially in the second half we put lots of pressure on them.

'They defended really well, well structured.'

Eddie Howe provides Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson injury updates | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe played down injury concerns for both Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson after the former was taken off early and the latter missed out completely against Brighton on Saturday.

The Magpies were held to a 1-1 draw with the Seagulls at St James' Park, after Joel Veltman put the visitors ahead and Sean Longstaff equalised.

There was concern before the contest after Wilson was not in the squad and Howe was a little vague on what the problem is with the England striker.

'Just feeling not 100 per cent today. A little of tightness, it's not an injury as such,' the boss said before the game.

Howe added after the draw: 'Callum, also a little bit of illness and not feeling great in his body so hopefully he'll be back [at Manchester United].'

Newcastle go to Old Trafford on Wednesday night and Howe is also hopeful that Isak will recover from a minor bout of illness, which saw him substituted with 25 minutes to play.

'Alex wasn't feeling very well yesterday so I took the decision to look after him with a three-game week in mind,' said Howe. 'You could see he wasn't at full tilt today.'

The Magpies remained sixth in the table with the draw and on course for a Europa League place next season.

Howe was not thrilled with the performance he saw from his players, but feels the point they picked up could be vital as they aim to finish in the top six.

'I don't think we hit the heights we needed to win it but, if anyone was going to, I thought it would be us,' Howe told BBC Sport.

'If you're not going to win the game, the draw for us is really important. I think it could be a valuable point for us.'

Erik ten Hag blasts his critics as Manchester United boss: 'They don't have any knowledge' | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Erik ten Hag is not taking criticism of his team's performances lying down (Picture: Getty Images)

Erik ten Hag has fired back at his critics, saying that anyone hitting out at his management of Manchester United doesn't know anything about football or football management.

The Dutchman has indeed come in for a lot of criticism this season with his team struggling for any kind of consistency and suffering a number of nightmare defeats.

There was another of those stinging losses last time out as the Red Devils were hammered 4-0 at Crystal Palace and Ten Hag's side now sit eighth in the Premier League with three games to play.

After crashing out of the Champions League at the group stage and producing a limp Premier League campaign, it is no surprise that Ten Hag's position is under question, but he is adamant he should not be criticised.

Like a number of other Premier League teams this season, Manchester United have suffered a lot of injuries this season and Ten Hag believes that anyone who understands football will give him a break as a result.

'I think the fans have the patience – you've seen it on Monday,' Ten Hag said, referring to the heavy loss at Selhurst Park on Monday night.

"But when I see some comments, they don't. And either they don't have any knowledge about football, or they don't have any knowledge about managing a football team. It's possible, or they just are up to it.

Ten Hag has had an extremely testing season in charge of the Red Devils (Picture: Getty Images)

'But I think there are many people that see the problems and they are patient.'

Ten Hag also backed the club's owners to have 'common sense' when deciding on his future, also taking into account of absentees he has had to deal with.

'The [owners] have common sense,' he said. 'You see when we have 32 different back lines, we've used 13 partnerships in centre half, when they see we don't have a left back, they know that will have a negative impact on results.

'It's a huge FA Cup final [against Manchester City]. We are happy to be there. It can be a highlight for this season. We know the reasons we are underperforming is because of the injuries. No team will perform when you have so many injuries in key areas.'

John Lundstram slammed for 'madness' red card in Rangers defeat to Celtic | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

John Lundstram's red card in Rangers' defeat to Celtic on Saturday afternoon was labelled 'madness' on a day to forget for the Englishman.

Celtic won the game 2-1 and are now on the verge of winning the Scottish Premiership, six points clear of Rangers with two games to play.

However, they were given a helping hand by their opponents, and specifically Lundstram, who scored an own goal and was shown a red card before half-time.

Matt O'Riley gave Celtic the lead and Lundstram's calamitous own goal seemed to put the home side in a very strong position.

Cyriel Dessers headed Rangers back into contention on 40 minutes but a ridiculous lunge from Lundstram on Alistair Johnston left Celtic with 10 players for the entire second half.

Former Celtic boss Neil Lennon had sympathy for the Rangers manager, who he felt would be fuming with Lundstram for the 'madness' he displayed.

'If I'm Philippe Clement, I'm absolutely raging, 100 per cent,' Lennon told Sky Sports. 'He's an experienced player.

'They've done great to get back into the game against a top team. They've shown good mentality, the shape has been alright. It's madness.'

Clement remained pretty measured after the game but admitted that the red card cost the team and he did not expect to see that kind of decision from an experienced player.

'It makes a massive difference, of course,' he said. 'Lunny will be the first one to know that, but it's decision making, wrong decision making in that moment.

'He knows. But I don't forget all the good things he did the last couple of months for the team and the last couple of years for the club.

'So everybody makes mistakes, you don't expect from an experienced guy that mistake in this game but it is what it is and we have to move forward now.'

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers was actually a bit frustrated that his team did not press home their advantage further, with a nervy ending to the contest.

'We made the game really tense at the end when there was no need for it to be,' he said.

'We're not over the line yet, but we're in a great place. We need to recover and look to finish the job on Wednesday.

'It's always the best team that wins after 38 games. We're not there yet, but the finish line is in touching distance.'

Liverpool can put Aston Villa's Champions League qualification party on hold | 24F596N | 2024-05-12 16:08:01

Unai Emery has to make sure Villa get over the final hurdle (Picture: Getty Images)

Aston Villa faltered when the chance to win the Europa Conference League was in touching distance, now they have to hold their nerve with a place in next season's Champions League within their grasp.

Victory at home to Liverpool in the last Monday Night Football match of the season will guarantee Villa finish fourth in the Premier League, punching their ticket to European football's top club tournament.

But two crushing defeats to Olympiakos in the Conference League semi-finals show Unai Emery's side have some way to go before they can consider themselves to be ranked among the best.

They aren't finishing the season strongly as they were beaten at Brighton between the defeats to the Greek giants and playing in front of the Holte End is not the massive bonus it was earlier in the season when they won 15 times on home soil as they have triumphed in just three of their last eight top-flight games at Villa Park.

Micky van de Ven's late winner against Burnley means Tottenham can still steal fourth place and a final day excursion to Crystal Palace isn't as easy as it may have appeared before the Eagles hammered Manchester United and won convincingly at Wolves.

Villa may well get the job done but it will probably be because Spurs, who go to basement club Sheffield United on the final day, fall to Manchester City on Tuesday – although that's not a gimme as they have a great recent record against the defending champions, particularly in N17.

Liverpool are also ending the season on a low note having fallen out of the title race at the last fence, ironically with the Grand National at Aintree still fresh in the memory.

This will be Jurgen Klopp's last away game as their manager and he may have to settle for a point in what promises to be an entertaining affair. A share of the spoils is 15/4 with bet365 and a 2-2 draw is 12/1 with the same firm.

Ollie Watkins is 15/8 to score at any time for Villa while Liverpool's Louis Diaz is 5/2 with Sky Bet to hit the net.

• Naomi Osaka is 10/11 with bet365 to beat Qinwen Zhang in the women's singles in Rome, stick her in a double with Coco Gauff to defeat Paula Badosa by over 3.5 games at the same price with the same firm.

• Stefanos Tsitsipas can advance in Rome by beating Britain's Cameron Norrie in straight sets at 3/4 with William Hill while Felix Auger-Aliassime is 7/5 with Betway to defeat Alex de Minaur.

Erling Haaland insists Pep Guardiola's decision to bring him off versus Wolves was not the reason for his tantrum in Manchester City's 5-1 win last weekend.

The Norwegian struck four times against Gary O'Neil's lacklustre Wolves team to take his goal tally to 25 in the Premier League this season, moving him clear of Chelsea's Cole Palmer – his former team-mate at the Etihad.

Haaland was denied the chance to increase that number as he was replaced by Julian Alvarez in the 82nd minute and the forward appeared less than impressed as he exchanged words with Guardiola on the touchline.

The former Borussia Dortmund star then proceeded to throw a piece of strapping to the floor in anger as he took his place on the substitutes bench, with a bemused Sergio Gomez looking on beside him in Manchester.

Speaking after City's victory, Guardiola played down the significance of Haaland's strop and suggested the striker was simply upset with the number of fouls that had gone unpunished in the game.

However, Roy Keane went on to criticise Haaland over his behaviour, branding the Premier League's top scorer a 'spoilt brat' while comparing the incident to Mohamed Salah's clash with Jurgen Klopp last month.

'We saw Haaland yesterday being brought off, not too happy, behaving like a spoilt brat, but because they win the game and he scores goals it's almost forgotten about,' the legendary ex-Manchester United captain said on Sky Sports.

'I think because the results haven't been going Liverpool's way, that's highlighted. But I fully expect Liverpool to turn up here today [against Tottenham], put in a good performance and let the manager leave in a few weeks on a high.'

Haaland had remained tight-lipped over this incident in the days that followed but, during a wide-ranging an interview with Men in Blazers, the Norwegian stressed that Guardiola's decision to take him off was not the source of his frustration.

'I wasn't mad because of that. I was mad because of something completely different. It was nothing about that. I was super happy that Julian came on and scored as well,' Haaland explained.

'Of course I would love to score more goals but I wasn't mad or anything about getting subbed off. I would never be

'I'm happy for the guy that gets substituted for me, Julian, and that's how it is.'

Keane has been one of Haaland's most high-profile and vocal critics, likening the striker's general play to that of a League Two player in the wake of City's goalless draw with Arsenal earlier this season.

But Haaland says criticism is just 'part of his life' and he 'doesn't care' what pundits have to say about him in the media.

'There has always been this discussion on how many times I should touch the ball and when I score no one speaks about this. When I don't score suddenly people start to mention my touches,' the Norway international added.

'This is a part of my life, this is how people will speak. I cannot control what people say about me.

'I just have to focus on what I should do on the pitch and my job is not to be like Rodri, to control a game. It's being in the box and up front for City, finishing the attacks and that's my focus.

'I don't care about what people say or anything. It's about focussing on helping the team to win.'
