JURGEN KLOPP Liverpool only signed Ibrahima Konate in the summer window, so they’ve been saving their pennies for Christmas! That’s great news for Jurgen Klopp, who sees lethal on-loan Wolves forward Hwang Hee-Chan as the perfect long-term replacement for Roberto Firmino. Wolves have an option to sign him permanently though, so Klopp could end up being disappointed! PEP GUARDIOLA We think the Man. City manager is a massive hoarder, because we noticed another attacking midfielder on his Xmas wish list! Even though the reigning Prem champs spent £100 million on Jack Grealish last summer, Pep wants to pickpocket Christopher Nkunku from RB Leipzig after his impressive hat-trick at the Etihad back in September! STEVEN GERRARD It’s no surprise to see some old Rangers mates on Stevie G’s Christmas wish list!…

10 KHADIJA SHAW MAN. CITY She’s nicknamed ‘Bunny’, but the lethal striker prefers goals to carrots! She finished last season as the top scorer in the French league with 22 strikes from 20 matches, including three hattricks. Her deadly form saw her earn a summer move to Man. City, where she scored on her WSL debut v Everton and then hit a hat-trick in the FA Cup v Leicester! 9 CHRISTINE SINCLAIR PORTLAND THORNS The greatest international goalscorer of all time was already a legend before 2021 even begun, but she cemented her place among the all-time legends by captaining Canada to their first-ever major trophy at the Olympics! The 38-year-old striker ends the year on 188 all-time international net-busters from 306 appearances. Wowzers! 8 MAGDALENA ERIKSSON CHELSEA Defenders never…

MOHAMED SALAH Cristiano Ronaldo set the POTM bar pretty high with his September card, but we think Salah has raised it even higher! After grabbing nine Premier League goals and assists combined in October, EA rewarded him with this jaw-dropping POTM card, which has far better pace and dribbling stats than CR7’s one. It’s our Xmas dream! NEYMAR After scoring a brace in PSG’s win over Bordeaux, Neymar was handed a spot in the sick TOTW 8 squad! On paper, it might just look like a one-point OVR boost from his regular card, but improvements to his finishing, shot power, speed and agility all have a difference in making him even deadlier than ever! GIOVANNI REYNA EA teamed up with adidas to create a special-edition Numbers Up card, with select…

EUROPEAN GOLDENSHOE! ROBERT SAYS: “I am proud of this award since we have four fewer games in the Bundesliga than the leagues in England, Spain, Italy or France and also I played only 29 games because of injury! After missing four games, I knew that I could only achieve it if I scored at least three in one of the remaining games!” UNDESLIGA RECORD! ROBERT SAYS: “I knew I had a great chance to break Gerd Muller’s 40-goal Bundesliga record from 1971-72! But it was not so simple. I felt the importance of this record to the German public. That is why these 41 goals were exceptional – and they are also a credit to the entire team. The Golden Shoe belongs to them!” CHILDHOOD IDOLS! ROBERT SAYS: “I admired…

MERSEYSIDE MEETING! Everton v Liverpool Wednesday, December 1 8.15pm ★ Amazon Prime Video Whoever referees this Merseyside match will be giving out loads of Christmas cards – just not the sort of ones you want to receive! It’s officially the Premier League fixture with the most red cards in history, with Richarlison being the last man to receive one when they met at Goodison Park last season! OLD TRAFFORD TREAT! Man. United v Arsenal Thursday, December 2 8.15pm ★ Amazon Prime Video We’re ho-ho-hoping for a more exciting match than their dull 0-0 draw last January! That game had us snoring even louder than your grandparents after too many mince pies! Gunners fans should be feeling pretty confident, though – they’re on a five-game unbeaten run v The Red Devils…
