David Moyes reveals injury concern and disappointment with two Everton stars
David Moyes admits he has been disappointed with both Beto and James Garner during Everton's pre-season, as he reveals an injury concern ahead of the new campaign. It has been a difficult summer for the Toffees in what should be an exciting time for the club as they move into their new stadium under new ownership. The squad is thin after the likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Abdoulaye Doucoure, Mason Holgate and Ashley Young all left at the end of their contracts and signings have been slow to arrive. Carlos Alcaraz has made his loan move permanent and both Thierno Barry and Adam Aznou have arrived, but Moyes would like more arrivals before the season begins in two weeks. The Scotsman's frustrations are not limited to the transfer market, however, as he has voiced his unhappiness with a couple of players.

Speaking before Everton's 2-2 friendly draw with Manchester United on Sunday, Moyes called out striker Beto, saying: 'I've been a bit disappointed with Beto and I've told him. We're needing a bit more and he can do more and he has done more. 'So we're hoping we can get a bit more from him, but he's a really honest working lad and I'm sure he'll try and prove that tonight.' Beto played 60 minutes of the match in Atlanta before being replaced by summer signing Barry, who he will be competing with to play up front this season. The Toffees boss also admitted he had been underwhelmed by the performances of James Garner so far this summer, but that changed thanks to his display against his former club on Sunday. 'I've actually been pretty disappointed in Jimmy in the early games in pre-season, but not tonight,' said the manager. 'Tonight, I thought he played really well and he actually went all of the distance. 'But you've got to remember, we've played Jimmy Garner at right wing-back because we've not had other people to do the job. Jimmy's a bit more flexible but we played him a little bit deeper and I thought as the game went on, he was the one who was still chugging along and I was pleased with him.' While Moyes was pleased to see James Tarkowski back in the team after injury and suggested Jarrad Branthwaite will soon be available again, there was less good news about Nathan Patterson. The defender has featured on the American tour but was not involved against the Red Devils, with the manager revealing he has a fitness concern. 'Nathan has got hernia symptoms,' said Moyes. 'Whether it means he's got a hernia or not, we're not sure, but we'll have him assessed on Tuesday after we get back.' Results-wise, Everton's pre-season has not been good, with Sunday's draw coming after defeats to West Ham, Bournemouth and Blackburn Rovers. More Trending Their final pre-season game comes on Saturday at home to Roma before their Premier League campaign begins at Leeds United on Monday August 18. On the prospect of new signings before then, Moyes said: 'I think there'll be deals next week. I think we're getting much closer. But I felt that four or five weeks ago as well. 'Obviously, we're getting near the tickly bits and we've got to get some things done.'

Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy fears 'abuse' of multi-club ownership
The Eagles, whose FA Cup victory earned their place in the Europa League, were instead demoted to the Conference League by European football's governing body UEFA on July 11 after it determined that as of March 1, American businessman John Textor had control or influence at Palace and French club Lyon. UEFA rules state that one or more clubs deemed to have common ownership cannot play in the same competition, with Lyon edging out Palace for the sole Europa League place because of their comparatively higher league finish last season.

Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool stars' 'DMs to Sydney Sweeney' revealed
Sydney Sweeney has been branded as the "most wanted woman in America", with the Euphoria star reportedly being bombarded with messages from Premier League stars in the wake of her split Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney has been inundated with DMs from Premier League footballers following her recent split. The 27-year-old, dubbed 'the sexiest woman in the world ', is now single after parting ways with her former partner, producer Jonathan Davino, earlier this year. The couple started dating in 2018 and got engaged in 2022 but have now called off the wedding. Sydney, who rose to fame with her role in the hit HBO series Euphoria, has also starred in such films as 'Anyone But You' and 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood', and she is reportedly now enjoying the single life stateside post-breakup. However, she's also caught the attention of some of England's top footballers, who have offered to jet her off to Europe for romantic rendezvous. This comes after she snubbed Conor McGregor at a party. An insider revealed to The Sun: "Her Instagram DMs are packed with messages from famous men trying to get in contact with her. It's mostly guys playing for teams like Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal," reports the Daily Star. "They offer her trips to Europe to see them and take her on a date, but she's not the kind of person who does that. Some of them are very insistent and have even tried to find her address to send her flowers, but she always refuses. "I'd say more than 100 people, from celebs to millionaires or very rich people from the Middle East and Asia, contact her every month." Her friends are now reportedly teasing that she's become "the most wanted woman in America since Madonna." Despite the playful tone of some admirers, Sweeney doesn't hesitate to hit back at any overzealous suitors stepping out of line. The source said: "The ones who cross the line of respect are quickly blocked. Not long ago, an American actor who had recently divorced approached her to take her on a date. "She declined and he started being very rude, so she told him to stop talking to her and to show some respect to her and all women." It was rumoured that Sydney and Jonathan's romance had been on shaky ground for a while before they called it quits. Sweeney's jam-packed filming diary is said to have played a part in the split, with her taking on both executive producer duties and the lead role in her latest project, The Housemaid. In May, she opened up about enjoying her newfound single status, saying: "I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends. And I'm loving it." Sweeney has also made waves recently after starring in a campaign for American Eagle. In the advert, she confidently posed sans bra, accompanied by the punchy tagline: "Sydney Sweeney has great jeans".
