How to send your questions to Martin Tweet @SkyFootball using the hashtag #TylersTeasersMartins starting statsI was at Old Trafford on Saturday to witness Manchester Uniteds 47th Premier League game against Liverpool. They have won 26 and there has only been one draw in the last 20. United have now won six of their last eight Premier League clashes.We saw the first away goals conceded by Liverpool this season plus the first home goal conceded by United in the league. Anthony Martial became the 39th different player used by Louis van Gaal in the Premier League in his 43 games in charge. Manchester Uniteds Daley Blind celebrates after scoring against Liverpool Daley Blind scored his first goal at Old Trafford having scored late equalisers at West Brom and West Ham last season. Simon Mignolet played in his 200th career game in England after being dropped for this fixture last season and Morgan Schneiderlin made his 100th Premier League appearance.United had a number of players playing against Liverpool for the first time - Matteo Darmian, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Memphis Depay, Martial - and Luke Shaw for the first time in a Manchester United shirt.I first came across Shaw when he was 10 years old in a local schools match playing against the team I was coaching. He was so good we marked him man for man (or boy for boy) - the only time I ever did that with a 10 year old! I wish him the best for a full and speedy recovery and he will be much thought of when we go to St Marys for the meeting of Southampton and United live on Sky Sports this weekend. Off to a flyer Claudio Ranieri has picked up 11 points from his first five games Is Claudio Ranieris start to the season the best by a new manager? Gary, LeicesterMARTIN SAYS: Its been a remarkable start for Ranieri at Leicester, and Sundays dramatic comeback against Aston Villa put them up to second in the Premier League table with 11 points from his first five games in charge.Only Carlo Ancelotti has enjoyed a perfect start in the first five Premier League games at a new club, winning all five matches and therefore getting 15 points when he took over at Chelsea in 2009.Another Blues boss, Jose Mourinho, and Tim Sherwood at Tottenham are among five bosses who picked up 13 points in their first five games. The others are Frank Clark (Nottingham Forest), Glenn Roeder (Newcastle) and Roy Hodgson (Blackburn).The other managers to have had a better start than Ranieri are Alan Ball (Southampton), Guus Hiddink (Chelsea), John Gregory (Aston Villa) and Roberto Mancini (Man City). They all picked up 12 points in their first five games.Ranieris start actually matches that of Peter Taylor, who also picked up 11 points from his first five games in charge of Leicester when he took over in 2001. They went on to finish 13th that year.The Unstoppables Manchester City are on an 11-game winning league run Are Manchester City close to the longest winning streak in the Premier League? LeanneManchester City have started the Premier League season in imperious form. Five games, five wins with 11 goals scored and none conceded. This run has seen them win their last 11 games, including the final six games of last season. This is the joint third longest winning streak in Premier League history.City now need just three more victories to draw level with Arsenals record of 14 Premier League wins on the bounce in 2002. That ended with a 2-2 draw against West Ham - who are Citys opponents on Saturday. In order to break this record, City will have to defeat West Ham (h), Tottenham (a), Newcastle United (h) and Bournemouth (h).City are one game short of matching Manchester Uniteds best ever winning streak of 12 games in 2000.City also need to go one more game without conceding to equal the record set by Jose Mourinhos Chelsea, who didnt concede a goal in the first six games of the 2005/06 season.Keeping it clean Tony Pulis has a strong record of keeping clean sheets Does any manager have a better clean sheet record in the Premier League than Tony Pulis? MaxWest Brom have already stopped Watford, Stoke and Southampton scoring against them in the Premier League this season. Tony Pulis has seen his West Brom side keep 13 clean sheets in his 23 top-flight games in charge - an impressive return of 56.5 per cent.Pulis Stoke side kept a clean sheet in 29.5 per cent of their games. That average was bettered when Pulis took charge at Crystal Palace, who shut out the opposition in 38.5 per cent of their games under his charge. Pulis career average clean-sheet record is 33.1 per cent - which is the 22nd best record of any manager in Premier League history.The best record is held by Jose Mourinho (51.7 per cent), followed by Rafael Benitez (44.9 per cent), Roberto Mancini (44.4%) and Sir Alex Ferguson (44.3%).Of current bosses, Manuel Pellegrini is second behind Mourinho (43.2 per cent), followed by Ronald Koeman (41.9 per cent), Arsene Wenger (39.2 per cent), Claudio Ranieri (38.4 per cent) and Brendan Rodgers (36.3 per cent).Pulis is next on the list and interestingly, has kept a higher percentage of clean sheets than Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal (32.6 per cent).Of managers who have taken charge of more than Pulis 239 Premier League games, only Rafa Benitez, Ferguson, Wenger, Gerard Houllier ,George Graham and David OLeary have a better clean sheet record - and all of those managed teams that finished in the top four, something Pulis has never done.Hat-trick super subs Steven Naismith is the sixth player to score a hat-trick as a substitute int he Premier League Steven Naismith scored a hat-trick against Chelsea on Saturday, but what other players have scored three or more goals in the Premier League after coming on as a substitute? PaulSteven Naismith was at the centre of all the transfer chaos on Deadline Day. Norwich placed an £8m bid and the feeling was he would leave due to a lack of starts at Everton.But Naismith stayed, and his spectacular hat-trick off the bench makes him just the sixth player in Premier League history to hit a treble as a substitute.Naismith joins a list of players which includes:Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: (for Man Utd v Nottingham Forest, 06/02/1999)Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink: (for Chelsea v Wolves, 27/03/2004)Robert Earnshaw: (for West Brom v Charlton, 19/03/2005)Emmanuel Adebayor: (for Arsenal v Derby, 28/04/2008)Romelu Lukaku:.(for West Brom v Man Utd, 19/05/2013) Also See: Paul Merson Jamie Carragher Jamie Redknapp Gary Neville Guillem Balague Ed Chamberlin
Wilt Chamberlain Jersey . Watching them over the past year - and in some cases, two years - has given us a starting point for this seasons Craigs List.
Joel Embiid Jersey . She was 30. The former British No. 1 died peacefully surrounded by family and friends, the Womens Tennis Association said on its website. The Kyiv-born Baltacha, who represented Britain at the 2012 London Olympics, was diagnosed with the illness in January, two months after retiring from tennis and only weeks after she married her long-time coach Nino Severino.CALGARY - Mason Raymond will have to adjust on the fly to his new team.Limited to a pair of pre-season games with the Calgary Flames because of a lower-body injury, Raymond says the first few games of the NHL season will be a lesson in adaptation.Would I have liked a few more pre-season games? Sure, Raymond said. Coming to a new team, theres new things to learn, theres new systems, new everything kind of walk of life. I try to pick that up as much as I can, but in saying that I think actually being on the ice and in those situations is the best way, quickest way to learn those.Part of being a professional is being able to adapt. Ive been a pro in this long enough. You have to learn, you have to adapt, thats just part of the way it is.The Flames signed Raymond to a three-year, $9.5-million deal when unrestricted free agency opened July 1. Mike Cammalleri, Calgarys leading scorer last season, departed for the New Jersey Devils the same day.Looking to fill the void on offence, the Flames came to terms with Raymond, who is from Cochrane, Alta., just northwest of Calgary. The six-foot, 185-pound left-winger had 19 goals and 26 assists and played all 82 games for the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2013-14.What was a bounce-back season with the Leafs made Raymond attractive to the Flames. Hed gone to Torontos training camp without a contract and earned a one-year deal.Raymond spent his first six NHL seasons with the Vancouver Canucks and posted a career-high 25 goals and 28 assists in 2009-10. He suffered a broken vertebra in Game 6 of the 2011 Stanley Cup final against the Boston Bruins.The long recovery from the injury hampered his output in subsequent seasons. The Canucks did not re-sign him in 2013. No other teams showed interest until the Leafs took a flyer on him and invited him to training camp.Truth be told, I couldnt get a contract, so I was there on a tryout, Raymond said. Im grateful for the opportunity that Toronto gave me and to be able to succeed.Its satisfying for me coming off a good season, playing well and proving you still deserve to play in this league. I think I proved it to myself, first and foremost, but proved to others I deserve to be here.Goal scoring is a question mark for the Flames to start this 2014-15 season and predicted to be by committee. Raymond, 29, is expected to be a significant producer on that committee.The reason why we went to get Masoon is that we had two priorities .
Dana Barros Jersey. . . to get us bigger and to get us faster, Flames head coach Bob Hartley said during training camp. Mason fits in in the second category. Hes been through battles. When youre stuck in a corner and feel like none of the 30 teams want you anymore, youre facing adversity. He did this with flying colours. Last year he had a great season in Toronto and now hes with us.He wanted to be a Flame so its my job, its all our job and his job to make sure we come up with a plan that will make him feel good and make him feel hes going to be a big contributor for us.Raymond relishes the idea of increased responsibility on a re-building hockey team.The work ethic thats been going on here, its something very intriguing for any player to come into, he said.You want to contribute wherever you can for sure. Ultimately, you want to be a part of the solution. I love playing in the O-zone and producing. In saying that you have to be responsible at both ends of the ice.Its easy to romanticize a local hockey product playing for the hometown NHL team. Raymond did go to Flames games as a youngster and recalls once meeting Lanny McDonald, who was captain of the Flames in 1989 when they won the Stanley Cup.Raymond says its cool to play for the Flames and having immediate family close by was attractive for him, his wife and young son.But he hasnt spent his career plotting a return to southern Alberta. Raymonds interests and those of the Flames happened to align to bring it about. The hometown thing for me, its kind of there, but its not there, Raymond said. Family come visit you in every city. Because Im here, is there more? Not necessarily. They know that youre here, this is my job, this is my business and to be quite honest, I was gone from here for 10 years. Did I know I was going to be a Calgary Flame five days before free agency? No, not really. The process is interesting and how it works and theres that grace period where you can start to speak with teams and the Flames showed interest.Returning to an NHL market in western Canada was high on his wish list as a free agent. That was also a box the Flames were also able to check off.For me, Ive been fortunate enough to play in Canadian markets and to be honest, I really wouldnt want it any other way, Raymond said. Fans are passionate. They pay close attention to their teams.
