🚨 𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗥: Harry Kane now needs only 22 goals in his last 8 games to break Lionel Messi’s record of 73 goals in a single season. Lionel Messi also produced 30 assists, Harry Kane has produced 6.

🚨 Manchester United are expected to wait until the end of the season before deciding on their next manager, giving Michael Carrick more time to prove himself. [@TyMarshall_MEN]

🚨🗣️ @TyMarshall_MEN: "United are unlikely to make a decision on their next head coach until the end of the season. That gives Carrick a larger canvas on to which he can show what he can do, but it also offered the chance for his flying start to grind to a halt. This was evidence that is unlikely, and if Liverpool are beaten in a couple of weeks as well, then it will surely cap a 17-game run that will encompass some impressive coaching achievements. At that stage, overlooking the merits of the man in the hot seat for someone else would be a brave call indeed for United's decision makers."

🚨 Michael Carrick now has the chance to complete a full sweep against the top six, with Liverpool still to visit Old Trafford in May. 👏 [MEN]

The comparison is not apples to apples, with Lincoln Financial Field located far closer to the center of Philadelphia than either MetLife Stadium or Gillette Stadium. However, it does mean that it is currently possible to travel, on a World Cup match-day, by rail for a much lower price from New York City to Philadelphia’s venue (a 96-mile journey) compared to New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium (an 18-mile journey). 📝 @AdamCrafton_ bit.ly/4cmqxTN

Virgil van Dijk's goal was Liverpool’s sixth 90th-minute or later winner against Everton in the Premier League era — the most one side has against another in the competition’s history. It will take more than a cherished derby triumph for Liverpool supporters to share Arne Slot’s bullish optimism about the future, but if the Dutchman is going to stay at the helm, then he needs to ensure they go into the summer with momentum. This was a step in the right direction. 📝 @JamesPearceLFC 🔗 nytimes.com/athletic/72094…

🚨 Endrick on Paulo Fonseca’s words about him: “I’ll never be upset about that. I only drive myself to work”. “I have to answer on the pitch”.

🚨🗣️ Ibrahima Konate: "We are close to an agreement. For sure there is a big chance I’m at Liverpool next season."

Manchester United are the only team to not suffer back-to-back Premier League defeats this season [@livescore]

The Philadelphia host committee for this summer’s World Cup has secured an agreement for fans to receive free travel when leaving Lincoln Financial Field via the city’s transit system. That system, SEPTA, last week revealed that it would be keeping fares consistent with ordinary prices during the World Cup, meaning passengers will be asked to pay $2.90. This will remain true for transit to the stadium. But now, The Athletic can reveal that those travelling via SEPTA will not be asked to pay at all when exiting Lincoln Financial Field after the six World Cup games at the venue. The agreement comes after comparatively sky-high prices for transit to and from World Cup games in Foxboro and New Jersey, with an $80 train and $95 bus being unveiled to transport fans to matches at Gillette Stadium from Boston. NJ Transit on Friday confirmed a round-trip rail ticket from New York Pennsylvania Station to MetLife Stadium would cost $150 per passenger. An alternative bus shuttle service will cost $80.
