Alan Shearer makes West Ham prediction as Man Utd make convincing offer

Another big day of Premier League action lies ahead, with Crystal Palace and Brighton playing out the first instalment of this season’s A23 derbies. Chelsea and Brentford also go head-to-head in an all London clash on Sunday evening.

Spurs are also in action, taking on Southampton on the South Coast, while West Ham are not in action until Monday night, taking on Bournemouth. Here we round up all the latest news surrounding the Premier League.

Glasner’s Hurzeler verdict

Palace boss Oliver Glasner has been full of praise for Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler, saying: “We never played against each other, but he (Hurzeler) did an amazing job in Germany with St Pauli. Also, what I always like with every manager is when you can see a clear style of playing and this is what he implemented in Germany, in St Pauli, and what he implemented here with Brighton.

"He does a fantastic job there and we had a call where we were speaking about differences between Germany and England. But during the game there's no friendship. Everyone wants to win and we will go there and we know what we have to expect. We know that we have to perform at our very best level. I still think that we didn't show the best Crystal Palace level at the moment. It's going in the right direction, but we still have to improve in many parts of the game. This is the next chance to show it, that we have improved, step-by-step, and are ready for all the games that are coming."

Shearer on West Ham

Alan Shearer is predicting more frustration for West Ham despite their much-needed win over Wolves last week. “I was at Bournemouth the other week watching them beat Spurs and they were really strong, they should have won by four or five,” Shearer told The Metro.

“So I’m going to say that this game will be a Bournemouth win. West Ham had a huge win against Wolves and will be looking to go back-to-back, but I don’t see them doing it on this occasion. Prediction: Bournemouth win.”

Gutierrez chase

Manchester United have reportedly submitted an offer for Girona defender Miguel Gutierrez. According to El Nacional, the Red Devils have submitted an ‘impossible to refuse’ offer for Gutierrez as they look to strengthen the left-back position.

United have had a series of injury issues on the left, with both Luke Shaw and Tyrell Malacia struggling with injury issues. Gutierrez has a release clause of £29.1million in his contract, and Real Madrid are due half of any transfer fee.
