It is never nice to see a player's career stall at a club where they seemingly have no future, especially when you are convinced they have the talent to shine elsewhere. A transfer window represents a chance for these players to remind everyone what they are capable of and on a more personal level, get back in their groove. We can never know exactly how a player feels about their career in a team they don't get picked for, but it can't be healthy from a mental perspective. January is an odd time to move as you simultaneously get players moving at the peak of their powers and in superb form, while you also get players that are lacking minutes and down on confidence. Honourable mention for Donny van de Beek, who seems to have sorted his immediate future out with a loan at Eintracht Frankfurt. Here's ten other top player s who could Van de Beek's lead, getting a move they desperately need. 1. Jadon Sancho Jadon Sancho is frozen out at Man Utd / Visionhaus/GettyImages ...

Mario Lemina opened the scoring for Wolves in the 51st minute before Matt Doherty bagged a 93rd-minute goal to seal the win for the home side, with Christopher Nkunku's 96th-minute strike proving too little, too late for Pochettino's men. Here's Chelsea's best and worst player s from the Game , according to 90min's player ratings.

Liverpool assistant Pep Lijnders has heaped praise on midfielder Ryan Gravenberch after his hot start to life at Anfield. The Reds paid around £35m to sign Gravenberch from Bayern Munich, where the Dutch midfielder managed just three Bundesliga starts in his first season, and have already seen him become a key part of the Liverpool starting lineup. Initially tasked with proving himself in cup com Pet itions, Gravenberch bagged two goals and an assist in three Europa League Game s and has now started Liverpool's last two Premier League Game s as he continues to showcase the sort of form that excited so many during his time at Ajax.

"It is the Ryan Gravenberch of Ajax that we see now. "I'm not sure what happened at Bayern, you cannot judge that, but each player with confidence and without confi...

As a general rule in the NBA, the buyout market is only as good as the trade deadline that preceded it. While it's hardly unheard of for teams to waive veterans they've kept all season, it's not exactly the norm. Even if a losing team has a veteran on an expiring contract, they typically choose to keep that player if he's a locker room fit, and when they are, such players aren't always eager to leave in the middle of the season anyway.  No, the best buyout candidates are almost always forced onto the market through trades. These are players that may have been genuine contributors on their prior teams, but were traded as salary ballast in a bigger deal to a franchise that doesn't need them. When that happens, the player offers to forego a portion of his salary -- often whatever amount he'll make on a prorated minimum deal with somebody else -- in exchange for the right to find a new team...
