  2. 'Koeman's recruitment first class'published at 10:54 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    Former Southampton striker Alan Shearer
    Match of the Day

    "Southampton got a great deal with Ronald Koeman coming in. His recruitment was absolutely first class. Given the players Southampton had to sell, and looking at the players they got in, I think he has done a magnificent job.

    "I like Graziano Pelle. He knows where he wants to run, and he puts the ball into the spaces for Sadio Mane - but he doesn't just admire what he's done. He's clever and he's cute and I like his movement.

    "He did go 14 games without a goal, but he's got three in the last three games. A total of 11 goals is not a bad return."

    Tottenham drained a little of the fun from "Ronald Koeman Day" in the early game at St Mary's by twice coming from behind to earn a point.

    Erik Lamela and Nacer Chadli both cancelled out Graziano Pelle goals as former Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino returned for the first time since his acrimonious departure to Spurs last summer.

    The result means Pochettino's new side stay sixth, a point ahead of Saints and level with fifth-placed Liverpool, who have a game in hand.

    Before today's action, let's reflect on what happened yesterday in the Premier League.

    The eight games didn't alter the upper echelons of the league table too much, the only real change being that Manchester City moved back above Manchester United and Arsenal after their nervy win over Aston Villa.

    More noteworthy would be if Chelsea won at Arsenal today, given that doing so would give them at least an 11-point cushion with five games remaining.

    At the bottom, Leicester were the decisive movers, edging out of the relegation places at the expense of Sunderland after their 1-0 triumph at Burnley.

    As well as the two Premier League games, there's also action in the Scottish Premiership on this beautiful Sunday as Dundee United take on Celtic for what feels like the 57th time this season. If I appear distracted later on, that'll be why...

    AP McCoy and Eden Hazard reappear again on the Sunday Express back page. But there's also room for Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers to claim he needs another couple of strikers at Anfield.

    Similar theme, but a different slant on the Eden Hazard story from the Mail on Sunday. Not only will Real Madrid have to pay £200m for the Belgian, but they'll need to chuck in Cristiano Ronaldo too. Bargain...

    The Sunday Star lead on Jose Mourinho's assertion that Chelsea forward Eden Hazard will cost Real Madrid £200m, should Spanish side want to lure the Belgian to the Bernabeu.

    There is a running theme on today's back pages, with the celebrated career of jockey AP McCoy taking centre stage. But that doesn't mean there isn't a bit of room for some football tittle tattle.

    The Sunday Telegraph are saying Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe is a candidate to replace Sam Allardyce at West Ham; although it must be pointed out that Big Sam is still in employment at Upton Park. At least until his contract expires in the summer, anyway.

    Medals and trophies are the footballer's currency of choice. Never mind that folding stuff that they throw about with reckless abandon in nightclubs and car showrooms, shiny baubles are what really count when their playing days are over and they are regaling anyone who will listen with their tales of derring-do.

    Tonight several of the Premier League's leading performers have the chance to burnish their collections when the winners of the PFA Awards are announced. But who will win the main prizes? And will anyone disgrace themselves?
