SHERWOOD PAYS FOR VILLA SLUMP

Your score update: it’s Men 5, Boys 1

- Ian Winrow Tony Paskin

BOURNEMOUT­H were thrashed 5- 1 at home by Tottenham yesterday – then publicly told just how bad they were.

Towards the end of the game, in which Harry Kane scored a hat- trick, the stadium tannoy microphone appeared to be left on and the fans heard a conversati­on between two men.

In summing up the game, one said “it’s f****** unbelievab­le, men against boys” – to the amusement of most of the crowd.

Jurgen Klopp lamented Liverpool’s TIM SHERWOOD was yesterday axed as Aston Villa manager with David Moyes in the frame to replace him and resurrect his Premier League career.

And former Everton and naivety in their 1- 1 home draw with Southampto­n.

Christian Benteke gave them the lead before Saido Mane equalised after Saints won two headers following a free- kick.

Klopp said: “Everyone knows you should avoid these free- kicks against Southampto­n. Three times one- on- one in the air. It is not bad luck.”

Sunderland beat Newcastle 3- 0 while the Manchester derby ended 0- 0. Manchester United boss Moyes has been joined in the running for the vacant Villa hot- seat by ex- Arsenal defender and former Lyon boss Remi Garde. Sherwood, left, was shown the door after just 28 games in charge and the board moved quickly to sack him following the 2- 1 home defeat by Swansea.

Sunderland’s 3- 0 win over Newcastle yesterday means Villa are now bottom of the table and at desperatio­n point. Moyes has endured a tough time in Spain managing Real Sociedad, with fans of the club calling for his head following last weekend’s defeat by Atletico
