Today’s fluff is taking it all with a pinch of salt

Juventus, storied heavyweights of the European game and a club who knows a decent defender when they see one, are scanning Europe for their next recruit and have zoned in, a tad improbably, on The Hawthorns. Reports this morning suggest that the Old Lady is eyeing a young man in the form of West Brom prodigy Nathan Ferguson. The 19-year-old has stood out for the Championship leaders in the past few weeks, so much so that he could be playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo rather than Hal Robson-Kanu come January – although not if Atlético Madrid have any say on the matter. Leeds are also interested, it seems, so all the best to them.

Tottenham remain outside the Premier League top six after their 1-1 draw at home to Watford, and Jamie Carragher believes this cycle is now over for Mauricio Pochettino's team.

The rumours, as Pochettino would have them, are rife because Spurs are at such a low ebb, having won only three games all season. Harry Kane was asked on Monday whether it was the toughest period the team had been through in five and a bit years under Pochettino. “Yeah, probably, I’d say so,” Kane replied.

The company supplying Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology in the Premier League has apologised following a graphic error during Tottenham's 1-1 draw with Watford.

• Watford manager unhappy over decisions in 1-1 draw
• Spurs’ Pochettino: ‘I think our goal was legal’

Quique Sánchez Flores branded VAR “weird” and questioned its objectivity after two controversial moments helped deny his Watford team their first league win of the season at Spurs.
