AC Milan close to signing Fikayo Tomori on loan with buy option - Fabrizio Romano
null
null
sportslens.com
Serie A leaders AC Milan are aiming to secure the loan signing of Fikayo Tomori from Chelsea with a buy option in the next few days, reputed journalist Fabrizio Romano reports. The England international has hardly played for the west London giants this term and he has made only four appearances in all competitions. Blues boss Frank Lampard recently said that Tomori could be loaned out and the Rossoneri are currently the leading candidates to sign him. However, the Serie A leaders want to keep hold of Tomori for the long-term and they are hopeful of negotiating a buy option for the centre-back worth €30m. The Blues are yet to give the go-ahead for the proposed deal, but Romano reports that the 23-year-old is prioritising a move to Stefano Pioli’s side. SL view: Tomori had a bright breakthrough season with the Blues last term where he made 22 appearances, but he has struggled for playing time this season. Summer signing Thiago Silva has been the regular partner for Kurt Zouma in the central defence while Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen have been the immediate back-up options. Hence, Tomori is literally the fifth-choice centre-back in the club’s ranks and he may have to pursue a fresh challenge elsewhere to revive his career. He can’t anticipate a definite starting role at Milan with Alessio Romagnoli and Simon Kjaer being the preferred picks at the heart of the defence. However, he has better chances of securing game time to prove himself when one of the duo is rested at certain stages of the campaign. Should he impress during his temporary stint, a permanent transfer could be worthwhile, given he is far down the pecking order with the Blues. Stats from Transfermarkt.com

Leeds United fans react to Rodrigo display vs Newcastle
null
null
sportslens.com
Leeds United returned to winning ways with a 2-1 win over Newcastle United on Tuesday night in the Premier League clash at St James’ Park. Raphinha and Jack Harrison scored on either side of a Miguel Almiron finish and sealed the tie in Leeds favour. It was Newcastle’s fifth defeat in a row in the Premier League and the Magpies have now picked up just two points from the past 27 available to them. It wasn’t a spectacular performance from the Whites but they did just enough to pick up all three points. Raphinha and Pascal Struijk were outstanding for Marcelo Bielsa’s side. Rodrigo was also brilliant on the night and Leeds fans took to Twitter to express their reaction to the Spaniard’s performance. Here are some of the selected tweets: His passing was quality tonight. Probably his best performance for us. — Bobby Grazzler (@blanny81) January 26, 2021 Agreed! Just in general we look too relaxed and lazy on the ball at times. We cut out playing ourselves into trouble and maybe go with 2 up top points should keep rolling in — Jack Lambert (@JackLambert18) January 26, 2021 More to come from him. Raphinha superb. Struijk comfortable at the back. Big gaps in the midfield at times — White Knight LUFC (@WhiteKnightLUFC) January 26, 2021 Class on the ball like especially on that half turn — Camma (@Camma18340030) January 26, 2021 Rodrigo finding Raphinha in space a few times was a joy — SirMontgomery (@SirMontgomery1) January 26, 2021 He was his best game tonight — Brad (@lufc75kb) January 26, 2021 He looked a lot better tonight. Some of his passing was superb. — Tony LUFC 🏆 (@Tonylufc28) January 26, 2021 yeah he was awesome! motm for me — Alex 🏆 (@alfonz1992) January 26, 2021 Sportslens View The 29-year-old, who joined in the summer transfer window on a club-record transfer fee, has scored three goals and provided one assist in 17 Premier League appearances this season. Rodrigo is getting better with every game, and his link-up with Raphinha has been very impressive. The former Valencia forward provided the assist for Raphinha’s opening goal. He was also involved in a late altercation with Fabian Schar, with Phil Hay suggesting that there was no ‘spitting’ incident involved. The victory came at a cost, though, with Spain international centre-back Diego Llorente limping off less than 10 minutes into his full debut.

Report: Manchester City are keen on Everton left-back Lucas Digne
null
null
sportslens.com
According to The Telegraph, Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola would like to add a left-back to his squad before the end of the January transfer window, and his side are huge admirers of Everton star Lucas Digne. However, such a move will be dependent on City being able to offload Oleksandr Zinchenko or Benjamin Mendy. The Frenchman hasn’t been able to consistently impress since joining City from AS Monaco, and his hefty wages remain an obstacle as far as an exit is concerned. Zinchenko isn’t short of suitors and the Ukrainian could be allowed to leave if the right offer comes in. Landing Digne could prove herculean for Man City as Everton aren’t keen to let one of their best players leave anytime soon. As a matter of fact, the Goodison Park outfit are preparing a new contract offer for the France international, and City may have to look elsewhere for a left-back. They have looked at Ajax star Nicolas Tagliafico previously, but it remains to be seen if they retain an interest in him. Ideally, the Etihad Stadium outfit will want a full-back that has already proven himself in the English top-flight, and Digne has been one of the best in the land since joining Everton from Barcelona in the summer of 2018. He is currently recovering from ankle surgery, and talks regarding improved terms with the Toffees are underway. With just two-and-a-half years left on his current deal, the £18 million signing needs to be handed a contract extension with City circling. The 27-year-old has weighed in with four assists in eight league games this term after ending his first two seasons with four goals and 11 assists in 70 league games. Digne wasn’t able to prove his worth at Barcelona, but the former Paris Saint-Germain left-back has what it takes to play for a top side again, and the prospective of linking up with Guardiola at City could be very tempting.

Report: Rangers and West Ham target Fashion Sakala comments on his future plans

Rangers have been linked with a move for Fashion Sakala in the January transfer window, but it seems it will require a lot of convincing to bring him to Ibrox. Last week, the Daily Record reported that the Gers are interested in signing the Zambian international this month with his contract expiring. The Ibrox club are looking to sign the 23-year-old on a pre-contract deal. The striker has been attracting interest from a host of clubs including Anderlecht. Premier League clubs – Newcastle United and West Ham United – have also been credited with an interest. However, the player has made it very clear that he will move to a club where he will get regular games, and that he is not willing to warm the bench. “Yes, there is interest from other teams – at the same time, talks are ongoing with KV Oostende about a new contract and we will see where we end up,” said Sakala. “For me, signing a new contract would be no problem at all. I feel good here and have played almost every week in recent seasons. “If I decided to go to a new club, it would need to be somewhere I got to play every week and was content. But honestly, I am in no hurry to leave because I am happy here. “Of course, if I could choose which league I would want to play in I would pick La Liga or the English Premier League.” SL View: Move unlikely It was reported that the KV Oostende star fits into the business model of Ross Wilson (Rangers club director) as the Ibrox club feel he could be a real asset. The versatile attacker has been doing well this season, where he scored six goals and provided two assists in 16 Jupiler Pro League games so far. Considering that he would be a free agent next summer, either Rangers or West Ham can get him on the cheap in January. West Ham are looking to sign a striker this month following the departure of Sebastien Haller, but doubts remain about whether they would go after him. A move to the Premier League would be a lucrative option for him, no doubt, but the Hammers cannot guarantee him regular starts.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta could delve in the January transfer window to sign a new creative midfielder, and the Gunners are exploring options. According to reports from Eurosport, the north London clubs are checking out options including Real Madrid’s Isco and Emi Buendia of Norwich. There have been reports in recent weeks that Norwich would be ready to sell Buendia for just £15m, with the Athletic reporting that he could be an exciting option for the Gunners if they look to invest in players with Premier League experience. However, Eurosport claims that The Canaries want to keep hold of him. It would take at least £25m to lure him away from the club. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal are ready to make any formal approach for him. Buendia has been in impressive form for the Canaries, managing six goals and six assists in the Championship so far. He would be a superb signing for the Gunners who could become a long-term replacement for Mesut Ozil. Other targets for Arsenal Arsenal looked at Houssem Aouar in the summer, but he is expected to remain at Lyon. Isco has been struggling for game time at Madrid, and he is open to the idea of moving to the Premier League.

Arsenal defender Kieran Tierney could be fit to face Newcastle United

Arsenal left-back Kieran Tierney has avoided a potential long-term injury and could be fit for the Premier League clash against Newcastle United next week, The Athletic reports. The Scotland international was left out of the matchday squad to face Crystal Palace on Thursday night as a precaution for a calf problem. Earlier today, the defender went through an MRI scan and the results have been positive with him avoiding a muscle tear in his calf. It is revealed that the 23-year-old could be fit enough to feature in Monday night’s league clash against the Magpies at the Emirates Stadium. Tierney has been one of the Gunners’ top performers this term and he earned plaudits from fans even when the club were on a seven-match winless league streak. In his previous four games across all competitions, he has been in fine form, scoring one goal alongside three assists. His absence was felt against Palace yesterday where the Gunners failed to create sufficient chances on goal as the game ended 0-0. Ainsley Maitland-Niles replaced Tierney at left-back, but the England international struggled to impress in his makeshift role. Bukayo Saka featured in the position after Maitland-Niles’ substitution, but he was likewise ineffective, having largely played in the attack this term. Hence, manager Mikel Arteta would want Tierney fit as soon as possible and he will be hoping that the defender is available for the next league game. The Gunners have recently picked up form in the league with 10 points accumulated from the previous four matches. They are still in the bottom half of the table in 11th and have plenty of work to do to close the gap on the European places. Stats from Transfermarkt.com

Bundesliga Player of the Month nominees for December announced

sportslens.com
The shortlist for the Bundesliga’s Player of the Month award for December has been announced. The six-man shortlist is made up of two players from table toppers Bayern Munich, another two from third placed Bayer Leverkusen, and then one each from Borussia Monchengladbach and Freiburg. Here is a closer look at each of the nominees. Robert Lewandowski Who’s shocked? I’m not. Robert Lewandowski once again starred for Bayern Munich in the last month. After drawing a blank in the 3-3 draw against RB Leipzig, the Poland international netted the equaliser against Union Berlin, then bagged consecutive braces against Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen. He scored literally every goal for the Bavarians in those three games. Lewandowski will be looking for his second Player of the Month award of the season, having already scooped the prize for his performances in October. Thomas Muller Leipzig may have managed to keep Lewandowski quiet, but they were powerless to prevent Thomas Muller from adding to his goal tally. The World Cup winner struck twice in a man-of-the-match performance for Bayern Munich to ensure a draw against their title rivals. It was a month of stepping up in the big games for the 31-year-old. In their clash against Bayer Leverkusen, Muller recorded an assist for Lewandowski as Bayern Munich returned to the top of the table. Nadiem Amiri He may have gone viral for a beautiful goal against Frankfurt on Saturday, but it was his playmaking which got him on the shortlist for the award. The German registered assists in all four of Bayer Leverkusen’s league fixtures last month, helping his side to nine points from a possible 12. Lars Stindl Arguably the leading candidate for the award, Lars Stindl has carried Borussia Monchengladbach through December with four goals and one assist. He began the month with an assist for Breel Embolo in the club’s 2-2 draw against Freiburg, before rescuing a point against Frankfurt with a hat-trick in a 3-3 draw – including two strikes in injury time. Stindl was also able to convert from the penalty spot in his side’s 2-1 defeat at home to Hoffenheim. Vincenzo Grifo Freiburg have hit a good run of form in recent weeks, and it’s largely thanks to Vincenzo Grifo. The Italian has had a superb month, netting three and assisting a further two in four outings. His standout performance was in the 4-1 triumph over Hertha Berlin, where he opened the scoring in the seventh minute, and later assisted teammate Manuel Gulde to make it 3-1. Florian Wirtz Prepare to feel old and hopeless. The final nominee was born in May 2003. Yep, May two-thousand-and-three. The teenager scored his first two league goals of the season last week, first putting Bayer Leverkusen 3-1 up against Hoffenheim, then adding a fourth in his side’s thrashing of Koln.

Report: Valencia make second offer for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Harry Winks

sportslens.com
According to Spanish football and transfer expert Guillem Balague, La Liga giants Valencia have made another offer for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Harry Winks today. Today #Valenciacf has made a second offer for #HarryWinks after first one was rejected. They are willing to pay the whole of his wages but the loan payment asked by #Spurs makes the deal very unlikely at the moment. Player stuck: not wanted by manager, can't leave pic.twitter.com/ds1NkbTs9S — Guillem Balague (@GuillemBalague) January 11, 2021 The Spanish top-flight side are keen to sign the England international on loan and are open to paying all of his wages. However, the loan payment Tottenham are demanding makes a deal very unlikely at the moment, and that has left Winks in a limbo. The 24-year-old isn’t in the first-team plans of head coach Jose Mourinho, and securing a temporary exit is now proving herculean. Winks has started just five Premier League games this term, coming off the bench twice, but he has been a main stay in the Europa League, featuring in five games during the group stages. He has played twice in the League Cup, but didn’t make yesterday’s FA Cup third round trip to Marine AFC. With 14 appearances to his name thus far this term, Winks needs to play more during the second half of 2020-21 to have a chance of making manager Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions squad for this summer’s European Championship. A move to Valencia could give him a chance to play regularly, but leaving Tottenham is proving difficult. It will be interesting to see what happens in the coming days, but Spurs chairman Daniel Levy shouldn’t prevent Winks from leaving as he has clearly fallen out of favour with Mourinho. Valencia are struggling in the La Liga this term, with only four wins to their name in 18 games. They are looking to make quality additions to their squad this month, and landing Winks alongside some other players could help boost their chances of finishing in the top-six.

Barcelona presidential candidate makes keeping Lionel Messi his top priority
null

sportslens.com
Barcelona presidential candidate Joan Laporta has vowed to do everything he can to keep Lionel Messi at the club if he is elected. The six-time Ballon d’Or winner dropped a bombshell on the world of football last summer, announcing that he wanted to leave Barcelona following a feud with former president Josep Maria Bartomeu. It was believed that he had lost faith in the club being able to compete for major honours. This sent the rumour mill flying, with moves to Manchester City, Paris Saint-Germain and the MLS all being heavily touted in the press. Messi ended up staying at the Catalan giants, although it is unclear whether he intends to remain there beyond the end of his contract in the summer. Messi’s future could depend on the upcoming presidential elections at the club. Following protests against his rule, Bartomeu resigned in October. Elections for a new president are set to take place in January 2021. One of the leading candidates for the role, Joan Laporta, has promised to make keeping the Argentine at the Camp Nou his number one priority, as reported by Goal. Laporta had immense success as Barcelona president from 2003 to 2010, overseeing four La Liga titles and two Champions League triumphs. It was under his rule that Messi made his professional debut in 2004. Speaking to Goal, the 58-year-old said: “It is very important, on a priority level. Great players have passed through Barcelona, ​​the best in their time, but Leo (Messi) is special. “He is the best in the world and surely in history, which is why he is so valued. The issue is so important for Barcelona that we have to do whatever it takes to maintain harmony. “He wants to win the Champions League again with Barcelona and we have to make him see that this will be possible.” Laporta hopes that Messi will stick around long enough for the club’s 125th anniversary in three years. “I wish we could celebrate the 125th anniversary at the new Camp Nou and with Leo with us,” he continued. “It would be very nice to get to this anniversary with Messi, it would be good final fireworks.”

Newcastle fans react to Miguel Almiron display vs Everton

sportslens.com
Newcastle United picked up a morale-boosting 2-0 win over Everton in the Premier League earlier today. Steve Bruce was under pressure to guide his side back to winning ways and he will be delighted with the performance of his players. Everton were the favourites heading into the game but the Toffees struggled to cope with Newcastle’s drive and determination throughout the 90 minutes. There were several impressive performances across the pitch but Miguel Almiron was arguably the best player alongside Callum Wilson. Wilson will take the headlines because of his brace but Almiron was outstanding creatively. #nufc’s Miguel Almirón created the most chances (3) vs Everton. Also made the second most attacking third passes (16) & ball recoveries (9). The freedom to roam the pitch in this number 10 role at the top of a midfield diamond suits his infectious energy & clever movement. pic.twitter.com/FQib6Bx5Nc — Premier League Panel (@PremLeaguePanel) January 30, 2021 The Paraguayan midfielder was deployed in his natural attacking role and did well to harass Everton’s defenders throughout the game. He helped carve out important chances for his side and the Newcastle fans were thoroughly impressed with his performance. The Magpies have missed his creativity in the recent weeks and it will be interesting to see if Bruce continues to start him in his natural role from now on. Some Newcastle fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the 26-year-old’s display against Everton and here is what they had to say. Nice that the btsport commentators think that Bruce has found Almiron’s position. Just the 19 months in — Charlotte Robson (@charlottehope) January 30, 2021 Tell you what, Almiron has been excellent today mind hasn’t he. Just shows his capabilities when he’s played in his proper, central position #NUFC — Callum Irving (@NUFCIrving1010) January 30, 2021 Huge 3 points and well deserved too! Wilson best player on the pitch, Almiron had a great game, Pickford in tears! Happy weekend! #NUFC — NUFCHotSpot (@NUFCHotspot) January 30, 2021 18 months and I’m still saying it, play Miguel Almiron in his correct position. — NINE (@ninenufc) January 26, 2021

Predicted Manchester United Starting Line-up vs Liverpool
null
null
sportslens.com
Manchester United take on Liverpool in the FA Cup this Sunday and the Red Devils will look to send their rivals crashing out of the competition with a win at home. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side have all the momentum heading into the game and they will be the favourites to win here. Liverpool are in a bit of a crisis right now having won just one of their last six matches. The Reds have several injury problems across the pitch but United should be able to field their best eleven here. The only injury problems for the home side are Phil Jones, Brandon Williams and Marcos Rojo. The Red Devils have failed to beat Liverpool in their last six meetings and they will fancy their chances of breaking that streak this week. The home side are unbeaten in five of their last six matches in all competitions. Solskjaer might look to bring in 23-year-old Dean Henderson in place of David De Gea for the cup game. Marcus Rashford, Victor Lindelof, Scott McTominay, Alex Telles and Nemanja Matic could be the other changes to the side that beat Fulham. United should still have enough quality to see off a struggling Liverpool side. Predicted Manchester United starting line-up: Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelof, Maguire, Telles; McTominay, Matic, Pogba; Fernandes; Rashford, Cavani.

Report: Jarrod Bowen earns West Ham United pay rise
null
null
sportslens.com
According to The Athletic’s David Ornstein, West Ham United forward Jarrod Bowen has been rewarded with a significant pay increase following his 30th Premier League appearance for the club. The 24-year-old joined the Hammers from Championship outfit Hull City last January for £22 million, ending the 2019-20 campaign with a goal and four assists in 13 appearances. Bowen has played 17 top-flight games so far in 2020-21, bagging four goals and two assists, and his latest top-flight appearance has triggered a sizeable increase in wages due to a clause included in the five-and-a-half-year deal he signed a year ago. Sportslens View Bowen has established himself in manager David Moyes’ starting XI, featuring in every league game of the campaign and he is proving to be a quality and excellent buy. He bagged 52 goals in 117 Championship games at Hull, and is adapting to life back in the English top-flight after failing to find the back of the net in seven appearances for the Tigers during the 2016-17 campaign. Leeds United were reportedly looking to recruit the services of Bowen last January in order to boost their promotion chances during the second half of 2019-18. However, Hull’s asking price put them off. Newcastle United and Everton also refused to do a deal for the same reason, and the trio could end up regretting not taking a punt on him should he end up becoming a world-beater at West Ham or somewhere else. Should Bowen continue to improve, the Hammers could find it hard to hold on to him going forward, and they could be forced to cash in on him for profit. He won’t be short of suitors if he keeps impressing with his performances, and it will be interesting to see how he fares in the long-term.

Arsenal centre-back Rob Holding comments on failed Newcastle United loan move
null
null
sportslens.com
Arsenal centre-back Rob Holding signed a new long-term deal with the North London giants yesterday, and it is a testament to the impressive campaign he has had so far in 2020-21. The 25-year-old was on the verge of joining Newcastle United on loan in the summer after the Gunners had signed Gabriel Magalhaes and Pablo Mari. William Saliba was also back from a season-long loan, and Arsenal were starting the season with eight central defenders. The Magpies were leading the race to sign Holding and, despite the fact that he featured in the Community Shield game against Liverpool, he was expected to complete a move to St. James’ Park afterwards. However, the move fell through and the former Bolton Wanderers defender has revealed that he was close to joining Newcastle on loan for the season. “It was all agreed, and the club thought it would be the best move for me,” Holding told The Telegraph. “But in the week before the Community Shield against Liverpool, the boss pulled me aside and said he wanted to check that I was focused for the weekend because I was needed. “I told him that, wherever I am, I will always play my hardest and put 100 per cent in.” Sportslens View Holding has since started 13 games out of Arsenal’s 17 Premier League games this term, coming off the bench once and featuring three times in other competitions. He has bounced back from the serious knee injury he suffered in December 2018 and is now a mainstay in manager Mikel Arteta’s starting XI. Joining Newcastle temporarily was meant to help offer him regular playing opportunities, but that might not have happened given the number of central defensive options available to head coach Steve Bruce at SJP. Failure to play regularly at Newcastle would have been frustrating for Holding had the loan deal happened, and that could have put his Arsenal future in huge doubt. Arteta’s show of faith in him is beginning to yield dividends, and the £2 million signing is starting to see his value skyrocket. Holding will now look to force his way into the plans of England manager Gareth Southgate ahead of this summer’s European Championships, and successfully doing that will be a huge achievement for the Arsenal man.

AC Milan loan Fikayo Tomori from Chelsea with £25m buy option
null
null
sportslens.com
AC Milan have come to an agreement with Chelsea to loan defender Fikayo Tomori for the rest of the season. The 23-year-old academy product has struggled to make the breakthrough at Stamford Bridge having previously been loaned to Brighton & Hove Albion, Hull City and Derby County. After making just four appearances for the Blues this season, Tomori joins Milan on a six-month loan deal with an option to buy for £25 million. Tomori could play for Milan against Atalanta in Serie A on Saturday. SL View – Good deal for both teams? Chelsea may have made a big mistake by giving Milan the option to buy Tomori after his loan period. Tomori is a great talent and has an exciting future ahead of him. With the correct development, he has the potential to become a world-class defender. He currently has Thiago Silva, Kurt Zouma, Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger ahead of him at Chelsea, but has the potential to force his way into the starting XI in the next two years. If he plays well during his loan period, Milan will probably take up their option to buy Tomori and Chelsea will lose an incredible talent. Given Chelsea’s recent struggles in defence, manager Frank Lampard can ill-afford to sell a player with Tomori’s talent. However, Chelsea’s loss is undoubtedly Milan’s gain. Tomori will join a talented and young group of defenders at the club, including Theo Hernandez, Diogo Dalot and Pierre Kalulu. If they choose to buy Tomori at the end of his loan, Milan will have a strong defence for the future.

Andre Villas-Boas confirms Aston Villa bid for Morgan Sanson
null
null
sportslens.com
Aston Villa are reportedly keen on signing the Marseille midfielder Morgan Sanson this month. We covered reports earlier in the week that the Premier League side have submitted a formal offer for the midfielder. Marseille manager Andre Villas-Boas has now confirmed that Aston Villa have indeed submitted an offer for the playmaker but he labelled the bid as pathetic and weak. He said (via GFFN): “We had a very, very weak offer from Aston Villa which we turned down. It was pathetic. I hope that he continues to remain professional.” Apparently, the opening bid was in the region of €7 million-plus €2m in bonuses. Meanwhile, Marseille are holding out for a fee of €18m. It will be interesting to see if the two clubs can come to an agreement in the coming days. SL View: Reasonable alternative to Barkley? Marseille were always going to struggle to get their asking price because of the current economic conditions but the fact that the offer is half of what they want seems to have disappointed them. The 26-year-old midfielder has proven himself to be a quality player in the French league and he has the technical ability to adapt and thrive in the Premier League as well. If Villa can sign him for less than €18m, it would be quite a coup for them. Sanson could be the cheaper alternative to signing Ross Barkley. The Chelsea midfielder has done well since joining Villa on loan and there have been rumours of a permanent move. However, the Blues are likely to demand much more than what Sanson is going to cost. The Frenchman can also play Barkley’s role and he could be a more sensible signing.

Mark Lawrenson predicts Tottenham vs Leeds United
null
null
sportslens.com
Popular football pundit Mark Lawrenson has predicted Tottenham Hotspur to win against Leeds United in the Premier League clash on Saturday. Leeds have won back to back games against Burnley and West Bromwich Albion, and they will be looking to kickstart the new year with their third consecutive win. Spurs, on the other hand, are without a win in their last four Premier League games, losing twice, but Lawrenson has predicted the north London club to bounce back to winning ways. Leeds, the Premier League newcomers, are constantly evolving under Marcelo Bielsa. A lot has been said and written about their style of football, with many even criticising the Argentine’s preference of style over results. However, Leeds showed against Burnley that they can grind out results as well without playing well. The BBC pundit expects Spurs to win by a 2-0 margin. “This is such an intriguing match because of the difference in the way both teams play, and how both managers see the game,” Lawrenson said to BBC Sport.

[ "Popular football pundit Mark Lawrenson has predicted Tottenham Hotspur to win against Leeds United in the Premier League clash on Saturday.\nLeeds have won back to back games against Burnley and West Bromwich Albion, and they will be looking to kickstart the new year with their third consecutive win.\nSpurs, on the other hand, are without a win in their last four Premier League games, losing twice, but Lawrenson has predicted the north London club to bounce back to winning ways.\nLeeds, the Premier League newcomers, are constantly evolving under Marcelo Bielsa. A lot has been said and written about their style of football, with many even criticising the Argentine’s preference of style over results.\nHowever, Leeds showed against Burnley that they can grind out results as well without playing well. The BBC pundit expects Spurs to win by a 2-0 margin.\n“This is such an intriguing match because of the difference in the way both teams play, and how both managers see the game,” Lawrenson said to BBC Sport.\nLeeds completely dismantled West Brom earlier this week, and their game plan will be “up and at ’em” here too.\nThat is exactly how Tottenham like opposing teams to be, though.

Report: West Ham United manager David Moyes tells Tottenham Hotspur target Issa Diop he can leave on loan
null
null
sportslens.com
According to Football Insider, West Ham United manager David Moyes has told French centre-back Issa Diop that he can go out on loan before the end of the January transfer window. The 24-year-old has played just five games for the Hammers this term, with his last appearance coming against Crystal Palace in the middle of December. Angelo Ogbonna, Fabian Balbuena and Craig Dawson are all ahead of him in the pecking order, and he is struggling to get back into the team right now. Diop joined West Ham from Toulouse in the summer of 2018 for around £22 million, and his form over the last two seasons attracted Tottenham Hotspur. The centre-back isn’t short of suitors as there are a number of teams keen on taking him on loan this month, and the Hammers are said to be likely to want all of his wages covered as well as a loan fee if suitors want him. Sportslens View Diop reportedly told the club that he wanted to leave during the summer transfer window, with Tottenham said to be favourites to land his services. The North Londoners were linked with a move for the West Ham man in January, but whether they are still keen on him remains to be seen following the signing of Joe Rodon last summer. Spurs boss Jose Mourinho dubbed Diop a monster while he was still Manchester United manager after he put in an incredible performance against the Red Devils, praising the scout that helped West Ham sign him and is a huge fan. The 24-year-old was also on the radar of Arsenal, Everton and the Old Trafford outfit, while Atletico Madrid were also said to be keeping tabs on him.

UEFA announce Men's Team of the Year 2020

sportslens.com
The UEFA Men’s Team of the Year for 2020 has been revealed. Unsurprisingly, treble winners Bayern Munich are the most represented side in the XI, boasting four. Premier League champions Liverpool were the only other side to own more than one player in the side. Nine different nationalities were represented in the team, as well as five different leagues. Manuel Neuer (Bayern Munich) – The German was magnificent once again in between the sticks for Bayern, elevating his status into the conversation for the greatest goalkeepers of all-time. Joshua Kimmich (Bayern Munich) – Despite having played in midfield for most of the year, Joshua Kimmich makes it in as a right-back. It’s his first appearance in the TOTY after a standout year, notably assisting Kingsley Coman’s winner in the Champions League final. Sergio Ramos (Real Madrid) – From a player who makes his first appearance, to a man who makes his ninth. Ramos has been superb for Zinedine Zidane’s title-winning side, keeping 20 clean sheets in 2020, as well as scoring 11 goals for Los Blancos. Virgil van Dijk (Liverpool) – For the third year running, Virgil van Dijk makes it into the UEFA Team of the Year. He was excellent at the back as Liverpool finally got their hands on the Premier League title. His absence this season has been noticeable. Alphonso Davies (Bayern Munich) – The speedy Canadian makes his first appearance in the team, but it may not be his last. As a teenager, Davies was one of last season’s most successful breakthroughs, announcing himself as one of the world’s finest full-backs. Thiago Alcantara (Bayern Munich/Liverpool) – The Spaniard was the beating heart of Hansi Flick’s sensational side, dictating and dominating games from start to finish. His time at Anfield has been affected by injuries, but he has still shown flashes of promise. Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City) – Man City’s standards may have taken a massive drop over the last 18 months, but De Bruyne is still performing to his best. The Belgian equalled the Premier League’s all-time assist record with 20 last term. Cristiano Ronaldo (Juventus) – At 35 years of age, the Portuguese star still doesn’t look like slowing down. He bagged 44 goals in the calendar year, sealing his FIFTHEENTH appearance in the UEFA TOTY. Lionel Messi (Barcelona) – It’s been a turbulent year for the six-time Ballon d’Or winner, but he has still produced some exceptional stuff. Messi broke La Liga’s all-time assist record, recording 21 in the last campaign, as well as winning the Golden Boot with 25. The fact that this was seen as a below-par campaign for the Argentine says it all about the standards he’s set over the years. Neymar (Paris Saint-Germain) – Rather astonishingly, this is only Neymar’s second appearance in the UEFA TOTY, with his first coming in 2015. The Brazilian was the standout for PSG as they won the domestic treble and reached the Champions League final. Robert Lewandowski (Bayern Munich) – Almost certain to have won the Ballon d’Or had it not been cancelled, Robert Lewandowski is awarded his spot in this team. Bundesliga top scorer, Champions League top scorer, DFP Pokal top scorer, winner of all three trophies – who can argue?

Liverpool boss Klopp makes demands from Barcelona chief Laporta

sportslens.com
Barcelona presidential favourite Joan Laporta wants to bring in Jurgen Klopp to the hot-seat amid talk that he will be elected at the end of this month. Barcelona were in a position of trouble for almost the whole of 2020, but the end of the year and 2021 have been more welcoming towards them than expected. The Blaugrana received good words from Lionel Messi most importantly, whereas they also managed to get within touching distance of Eric Garcia’s much-needed signing. January, in particular, proves to be a decisive month for them with elections scheduled at the end of this month. Joan Laporta is a distant favourite to come out on top and he already has made ambitious and convincing plans for Barcelona. The former president wants to keep Messi but not Ronald Koeman while bringing in Jurgen Klopp instead. Klopp has effectively completed his challenge at Liverpool as he has now won the Champions League and Premier League with the Reds. By the end of this year, he may well have another league title under his belt which is why he may want to pursue a new challenge and join Barcelona in the summer. Diario GOL has reported that Klopp may well be interested in the role presented by the La Liga giants but remains firm on his demands. First and foremost, he wants Lionel Messi to stay. The Argentine’s contractual situation remains under white lights, but his continuity, in the long run, is a non-negotiable ask from the German tactician. Apart from looking for Messi’s stay, he wants a total revamp of the squad with control over the transfers. Klopp will decide to sell some players, which include Samuel Umtiti, Martin Braithwaite, Junior Firpo as well as former Liverpool player Philippe Coutinho. He will also get rid of Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets who are nowhere near as good as in the past. The Liverpool head coach will also bid to sign some of Europe’s finest players which in truth Barca need. Laporta will also be expected to satisfy Klopp’s wanted signings. If the former Dortmund manager’s success at the Anfield is any benchmark to go by, he may well be a tremendous success at the Camp Nou in the longer run.

Predicted Leeds starting line-up vs Leicester
null
null
sportslens.com
Leeds will travel to King Power Stadium to face Leicester City on Sunday, and you can watch this and other Premier League games live online. Kick-off: 14:00 BST Tv Info: The match is being shown live on Sky Sports. The Whites returned to winning ways in the midweek after winning 2-1 against Newcastle United at St James’ Park. The Foxes are one of the title challengers this season and Leeds will have to be on top of their game to get a positive result. Brendan Rodgers’ side sit third in the Premier League table, just two points of pace-setting Manchester City. They defeated Leeds 4-1 at Elland Road earlier this season. The injury to Diego Llorente will give Bielsa a lot to think about how he will set his team up for this clash. The Argentine needs to make a big decision here – should he include Pascal Struijk or not? Struijk will be a like-for-like replacement, and his potential inclusion means Bielsa can retain the same winning combination. Alternatively, Bielsa can reshuffle the system and bring in the experienced 30-year-old Mateusz Klich after Tuesday night’s surprise absence. In that case, Stuart Dallas will be shifted to right-back, while Luke Ayling – who has been one of Leeds’ best central defenders this season – will be asked to partner Liam Cooper at the back. Bielsa could be tempted to use Pablo Hernandez as well to help out Patrick Bamford who is in the middle of a goal drought after an encouraging start to the season. Predicted Leeds starting line-up vs Leicester: Meslier; Dallas, Ayling, Cooper, Alioski; Phillips; Raphinha, Klich, Rodrigo, Harrison; Bamford

Chelsea urged to consider Hasenhuttl as Lampard’s replacement
null

sportslens.com
Chelsea have been urged to consider Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl as a replacement for Frank Lampard. The Blues have slipped down to eighth in the Premier League after a disappointing run of form, cranking up the pressure on their current boss. Former Sunderland striker Kevin Phillips, who also had a spell with Saints, told Stadium Astro that the Austrian has the ability to be a success at Stamford Bridge. “I think he’s almost got that (Jurgen) Klopp appearance about him, that authority,” he said. “He’s a big guy, he’s very intelligent, he knows the game inside out. “The big thing for the club is, can they keep hold of him? The biggest problem is keeping hold of their manager. “He’s doing a really good job down on the south coast. I wouldn’t like to see Frank lose his job, I don’t like to see any manager lose their job but I understand football’s football and it’s a results business. “No bigger so than Chelsea – when you’ve spent that kind of money you’re going to come under pressure to win football matches, it’s as simple as that. “Hasenhuttl – his time will come. He just has to keep doing what he’s doing. Hasenhuttl at Chelsea would do a fine job, but I want to see Frank given a chance for sure. “He could certainly manage any of the teams in the Premier League – it just depends what kind of ambition he has.” SL View Hasenhuttl has built up an excellent reputation over the past few years for his work at RB Leipzig and Southampton. He currently has Saints positioned in the top half of the Premier League and through to the fifth round of the FA Cup. The 53-year-old does appear to have all the attributes needed to manage one of the bigger clubs. However, whether Chelsea would be a sensible destination for Hasenhuttl is debatable. The club isn’t known for its loyalty to managers and moving there would undoubtedly be a risky move for the Austrian.

Predicted Everton starting line-up vs Newcastle United
null
null
sportslens.com
Everton will take on Newcastle United at Goodison Park on Saturday, and you can watch this and other Premier League games live online. Kick-off: 12:30 BST Tv Info: The match is being shown live on BT Sport. The Toffees will be looking to get back to winning ways after managing a 1-1 draw against Leicester City in their previous game. Carlo Ancelotti are up against Newcastle United who are badly struggling and are out of form at the moment, having failed to win in their last 11 games in all competitions. Allan and Fabian Delph are still out injured but the duo is expected to be back at training next week. The Toffees used 4-4-2 against the Foxes, but Ancelotti could use 4-2-3-1 against the Magpies. Jordan Pickford needs a break after his latest blunder against the Foxes. Robin Olsen is likely to replace the England goalkeeper. The likes of Mason Holgate and Ben Godfrey – makeshift full-backs – did well against big teams, but Ancelotti should be looking to use natural and attacking full-backs on Saturday. Seamus Coleman is expected to return in place of Mason Holgate, while Lucas Digne should drop back in his customary left-back position. Yerry Mina is likely to be dropped to accommodate the 27-year-old Frenchman in the back four, with Godfrey set to retain his place. In the two-man central midfield, Everton need one powerful central defensive midfielder and Abdoulaye Doucoure should come into the side. Andre Gomes can be a good option in the #10 role, but Ancelotti could bring back the experienced Gylfi Sigurdsson in the side. Predicted Everton starting line-up: Olsen, Coleman, Godfrey, Keane, Digne; Davis, Doucoure; Richarlison, Rodriguez, Sigurdsson, Calvert-Lewin.

Rangers fans react as Ally McCoist showers praise on Steven Gerrard

sportslens.com
Former Rangers player and Ibrox legend Ally McCoist has claimed that Steven Gerrard will change people’s lives if the Gers can win the Scottish Premiership title this year. Rangers are 21 points ahead of arch-rivals Celtic, although the Bhoys have three games in hand. Even if they win those games, Rangers will still maintain a healthy 12-point gap. Celtic have won the league title nine times in a row and, unless there’s a major collapse from the Gers, they are unlikely to retain their title. McCoist has praised Gerrard for the outstanding work he has done at Rangers since taking charge in 2018. He said on talkSPORT that it will be an ‘unbelievable’ achievement and that even Gerrard will be surprised by the effect he will have on so many people. Many Rangers fans have shared their reaction after the audio record was posted from the talkSPORT Twitter handle: When we win this league and stop 10 in a row he instantly becomes a GOD — WilliamOfBoyne (@boyne_of) January 13, 2021 Seriously, I was trying to explain to Mrs last night just how massive this is.

However, this year it has been a different story. The Gers have shown tremendous consistency, with key players performing at a high level. The results have improved drastically, with Rangers winning 15 games in a row. In contrast, Celtic have struggled badly in the league this season. Rangers went into administration a few years back. Bouncing back from that dark phase and winning the title would be massive for the club and its fans. More than stopping Celtic from winning ten titles in a row, the Gers fans will feel that the Ibrox club has been truly revived. From that perspective, McCoist is absolutely spot on. Gerrard will be able to understand the emotion of the fans if Rangers win the league title. As a player he couldn’t lift the Premier League title with Liverpool but felt immensely proud of the club’s success when the Reds won the title last year under Jurgen Klopp.

QPR confirm loan signing of Fulham midfielder Stefan Johansen

sportslens.com
Queens Park Rangers have signed Fulham midfielder Stefan Johanson on loan until the end of the season, as confirmed by the club on Twitter. He becomes the Rs’ third signing of the January transfer window. Former striker Charlie Austin returned to the club from West Bromwich Albion on loan – and subsequently scored on his debut against Luton Town – while Hull City defender Jordy de Wijs also arrived on loan. The West London side are light on midfield options, especially following Tom Carroll’s long-term injury sustained this month. Club captain Geoff Cameron and Dominic Ball are the club’s only fit senior central midfielders, and both of them are more defensively minded players. As a result, QPR have brought in Stefan Johansen on loan from local rivals Fulham, as reported on Twitter. The Norwegian was once a popular figure at Craven Cottage. Alongside Tom Cairney and Kevin McDonald, Johansen made up one of the Championship’s most formidable midfields, achieving promotion via the play-offs in 2018. However, he was given limited opportunities to prove himself in the Premier League. He was loaned out to West Bromwich Albion in the 2018/19 season, and was left out of Scott Parker’s 25-man squad for the current campaign. The omens are encouraging for QPR’s new signing. In each of his last eight seasons, Johansen has either won the league or reached the play-offs, a record stretching across his spells at Stromsgodset, Celtic, Fulham, and West Brom. However, manager Mark Warburton will likely settle for something a little less ambitious this term. His side are currently in 17th place, 15 points off the play-offs while just seven clear of the relegation zone.

ISL Matchday 9 Review: Goalkeepers Impress, East Bengal Finally Win & Much More

sportslens.com
The ninth matchday of the Indian Super League took place on either side of the New Year, and it did feature some explosive action. Going by the standards the league has set so far this season, it was a low-scoring week, but certainly not devoid of excitement. Here are all the best bits from matchday 9: Results Bengaluru FC 0-1 Jamshedpur FC (Eze 79′) Chennaiyin FC 0-0 ATK Mohun Bagan Hyderabad FC 1-2 FC Goa (Aridane 58′; Pandita 87′, Angulo 90+1′) Mumbai City 2-0 Kerala Blasters (le Fondre 3′; Boumous 11′) SC East Bengal 3-1 Odisha FC (Pilkington 12′, Maghoma 39′, Enobakhare 88′; Maurício 90+3′) Team of the Week GK: Arindam Bhattacharya (ATKMB) – 9 *Player of the Week* For the first time in about a month, a goalkeeper wins our Player of the Week title. Arindam Bhattacharya certainly deserves it for a simply outstanding performance which saw him almost single-handedly rescue a point and keep a clean sheet for his side against ATK Mohun Bagan. The 31-year-old shot-stopper made 7 big saves, including 5 off shots from inside the box and our Save of the Week, and won 2 aerial duels in a stellar display. RWB: Laldinliana Renthlei (JFC) – 7 *Young Player of the Week* Our Young Player of the Week for matchday 9 is Jamshedpur FC’s Laldinliana Renthlei, who did an admirable job of shutting Sunil Chhetri down and played a key part in the buildup to Stephen Eze’s goal. The 22-year-old full-back completed 94% of his passes, attempted 5 crosses and 3 dribbles, and made 3 interceptions. RCB: Stephen Eze (JFC) – 8.5 After scoring for the second time in two games and helping his side keep a clean sheet, Stephen Eze easily finds a spot in our Team of the Week. The Nigerian centre-back was great in defence too, as he made 7 clearances, 6 interceptions, won 5 duels and blocked 2 shots. CB: Eli Sabiá (CFC) – 7.5 The man in the middle of our back-three is Chennaiyin FC’s Eli Sabiá, who worked very hard to get a clean sheet against ATK Mohun Bagan. The Brazilian defender won 8/8 duels, got 71 touches, made 5 clearances and 2 tackles and blocked a couple of shots in a strong defensive performance. LCB: Enes Sipović (CFC) – 8.5 Enes Sipović has done a stellar job of keeping the likes of Igor Angulo and Idrissa Sylla quiet this season, and he made a fine addition to his collection by shutting down Roy Krishna. The Bosnian centre-back made 10 clearances, won 5/6 duels and maintained a passing accuracy of 77% in an solid showing. LWB: Subasish Bose (ATKMB) – 7.5 Subasish Bose had a tough opponent against Chennaiyin FC in Rahim Ali, but he did a great job of keeping the young Indian forward quiet and help his side to a point. The 25-year-old defender got 49 touches, made 7 clearances, won 5 duels and delivered as many crosses in a good performance on the left flank. CDM: Rowllin Borges (MCFC) – 7.5 Mumbai City had a field day in midfield in their match against Kerala Blasters, as you will see below. The first of their trio in our Team of the Week is Rowllin Borges, who was cruising alongside the more ball-playing Ahmed Jahouh. The Indian international got 61 touches, completed a whopping 96% of his passes, won 5/8 ground duels and made 4 tackles, 2 interceptions and 2 clearances. CDM: Ahmed Jahouh (MCFC) – 8 Ahmed Jahouh must have been the happiest man on the pitch in his side’s clash against Kerala Blasters, as nobody in yellow managed to get anywhere near him. In a superb display in all aspects, the Moroccan midfielder got 89 touches, attempted 21 long balls, made 7 clearances, 5 tackles, as many interceptions and 2 key passes, and got an assist. CAM: Hugo Boumous (MCFC) – 7.5 After taking our Player of the Month title for December, Hugo Boumous was at it again in his first match of 2021. Against Kerala Blasters, he scored a goal, got 42 touches, successfully completed 81% of his passes, won 7/10 duels, made 3 key passes, sent two shots on target and drew 5 fouls including 2 penalties, however, he did miss one. ST: Anthony Pilkington (SCEB) – 8 East Bengal put three past Odisha FC, and the man who opened the scoring along with his tally for the season was Anthony Pilkington. He headed a long throw past the keeper to make it 1-0, and later on, even moved into central midfield to help cement the three points for his side. The ex-Norwich City man finished the match with 55 touches, a passing accuracy of 80%, 4 attempted shots and 2 dribbles. ST: Jacques Maghoma (SCEB) – 8 East Bengal’s top-scorer this season added a third goal to his tally in his side’s clash against Odisha FC through a wonderful goal, which takes Goal of the Week too. The Congolese international had a great match as he completed 6/6 dribbles, got 36 touches, completed 89% of his passes, made 2 key passes and drew 4 fouls. Subs: GK: Rehenesh TP (JFC) – 8.5 GK: Amrinder Singh (MCFC) – 8 CB: Peter Hartley (JFC) – 7.5 RWB: Reagan Singh (CFC) – 7 CDM/CB: João Victor (HFC) – 7 CAM/ST: Bright Enobakhare (SCEB) – 7.5 LW/ST: Diego Maurício (OFC) – 7.5 ST: Aridane Santana (HFC) – 7.5 ST: Igor Angulo (FCG) – 7.5 Manager of the Week: Robbie Fowler (SCEB) Robbie Fowler has faced a lot of frustrations in his time in India including some unfavourable refereeing decisions, poor decision-making from his players and late equalisers for opponents, but finally, he was a happy man after his side got their first win of the season against Odisha FC. The Red and Gold Brigade looked fluid in attack as they netted thrice, and although their defending was sub-par at best, they came away with the points, and that’s what matters to the manager at the end of the day. Goal of the Week: Jacques Maghoma (SCEB) vs OFC East Bengal came away with a huge win over Odisha FC as aforementioned, and by far the best goal of that match was Jacques Maghoma’s strike to double his side’s lead. The Congolese international breezed past a couple of defenders on the left, decided to take the ball out wide and narrow his shooting angle, but thumped it home anyway with a powerful and precise finish. Assist of the Week: Ahmed Jahouh (MCFC) vs KBFC There was no real competition for Ahmed Jahouh this week, as he sent a 74.6-metre pass en route to Assist of the Week. The Kerala Blasters defence was certainly sleeping, but what a ball this is from Ahmed Jahouh. Honourable Mention: Raju Gaikwad (SCEB) vs OFC Save of the Week: Arindam Bhattacharya (ATKMB) vs CFC We saw some stunning goalkeeping performances this week, but the best of the lot also included the best save of the matchday. Reagan Singh was almost certain that he had picked out the bottom corner with this effort, but Arindam Bhattacharya somehow got a fingertip to it to ensure that it went wide. Honourable Mentions: Rehenesh TP (JFC) vs BFC Amrinder Singh (MCFC) vs KBFC Miss of the Week: Nerijus Valskis (JFC) vs BFC Nerijus Valskis is not known to miss too many chances having won the Golden Boot in his first season in India, but he did fail to take a great chance against Bengaluru FC this week. Aniket Jadhav set him up brilliantly with a square ball, but he uncharacteristically skied his first-time shot. Dishonourable Mention: Bipin Singh (MCFC) vs KBFC Stats courtesy Sofascore.com

Phil Hay of The Athletic has claimed that the shock defeat over the weekend in the FA Cup has led to a change in Marcelo Bielsa’s plans this week. Leeds lost 3-0 against Crawley Town on Sunday where Bielsa’s squad gamble didn’t pay-off. The decision to withdraw Liam Cooper and Pascal Struijk, both of whom are expected to be in the squad against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Premier League clash, left Leeds brutally exposed at the back. Bielsa initially said that he would use Diego Llorente, the summer signing from Real Sociedad, in the under-23s to develop his fitness. Llorente has struggled with injuries since joining his new club and has managed only one appearance this season so far. The Spain international was lined up for an outing with the under-23s at Burnley on Monday, but when the line-up was published, he was missing. Phil Hay of the Athletic has claimed that he has recovered from muscle strain and that his absence was not injury-related or down to fresh injury concerns. The Athletic journalist has added that Llorente looks set to be fully involved in first-team training this week. The news will come as a massive boost for Leeds who are without Robin Koch at the moment. Koch picked up a knee injury while playing against Chelsea. He has undergone surgery and the German international is expected to be out for three months. Leeds skipper Liam Cooper featured in the FA Cup defeat. It remains to be seen whether Llorente makes his first start for the Whites against Brighton on Saturday.

Napoli have set their asking price for Polish striker Arkadiusz Milik, who is yet to make an appearance this season after refusing a new contract.

Napoli Name Their Price for Arkadiusz Milik Amid Premier League Interest

Napoli have confirmed their asking price for wantaway striker Arkadiusz Milik, according to RMC Sport journalist Mohamed Bouhafsi on Twitter. Milik joined Napoli from Ajax in the summer transfer window of 2016 for an estimated €35m. He has since scored 48 goals in 122 appearances in all competitions for the Serie A side, winning the Coppa Italia last season. However, the Poland international has not made an appearance for Gli Azzurri this term, having been left out of Gennaro Gattuso’s Serie A and Europa League squads after refusing to sign a new contract. Napoli will be looking to sell the forward this January, with journalist Mohamed Bouhafsi claiming that they have set his price at €15m. Milik has just six months left on his contract, meaning that he is now free to talk to other clubs, and will be available on a free transfer in the summer. The 26-year-old’s situation at Napoli has sparked a lot of interest from around Europe, with a number of Premier League and Serie A clubs being named as potential takers for the player. In England, Tottenham Hotspur, Everton, and West Ham United have all been linked with the Napoli man. Tottenham already own one of the world’s best strikers in Harry Kane, so Milik would be unlikely to get regular game time there. However, Spurs will be looking for permanent back up for the England captain, given that Carlos Vinicius is only on loan as of now. Similarly, Milik’s purpose at Everton may only be to provide competition for Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who is currently third in the Premier League Golden Boot race. In contrast, West Ham would be likely to give the former Bayer Leverkusen man regular opportunities. French striker Sebastien Haller has not had the desired impact since signing in 2019, and their top scorer is defensive midfielder Tomas Soucek. Meanwhile, several other clubs from Europe’s top five leagues have been rumoured to be interested in Milik, including Juventus, Atletico Madrid, and Marseille.

Juventus president openly opposes European Super League

Juventus president and head of the European Club Association Andrea Agnelli has spoken against the idea of a European Super League. Over the last few years, there has been a lot of speculation surrounding the formation of a European Super League, comprised of the continent’s biggest clubs. Some rumours suggest that these clubs would break away from their domestic leagues, while others imply that the new competition would replace the Champions League. In October, the Sun claimed that Liverpool and Manchester United were at the forefront of discussions over a European Super League, made up of 18 clubs from the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1. Former Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu said that his former club had also signed up for the new competition, as stated by ESPN. However, Juventus president Andrea Agnelli has responded to reports of the Super League, showing his opposition to the idea. Speaking at Think Sport 2021, as quoted by ESPN, Agnelli said: “Competitions at the European level should be open to all, so we as the managers of the industry must keep the dream alive. “It is not just about England, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, but we must embrace also the lower competitions, guarantee an adequate European representation but at the same time offer stability of participation.” Agnelli has become the second major club head to speak out against the proposal, after Bayern Munich chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge. The German said that he would decline an invitation, claiming that “it could make it more difficult for many people to identify with football,” (via the Sun). Football’s world governing body FIFA have also gone against the idea. A recent statement by the organisation suggested that any player who participates in a European Super League would be liable to a ban from the World Cup.

Anthony Martial more popular in China than Lionel Messi, report shows

sportslens.com
The latest Red Card Report has been revealed, with some surprising results. The Red Card Report is a study which monitors the popularity of different players, clubs, and leagues in China based on social media research. The study is conducted by Mailman Group. The report analyses data from Chinese social media, such as Weibo – a blogging site – and Douyin – the Chinese version of TikTok. On the latter, the Red Card Report noted a 50% increase in active clubs. The 2021 edition of the Red Card Report has been released, showing Cristiano Ronaldo to be China’s most popular footballer for the third year running. The Portuguese forward proved to be huge on Weibo, being five times more popular than the second biggest footballer on the site, which was Neymar. Speaking about topping the charts, Ronaldo said (via South China Morning Post): “Thank you to everyone for this award for the third time. I know how passionate the Chinese fans are about football, and this is a real honour for me. I wish you all my very best and hope to see you soon.” Meanwhile, David Beckham was football’s second most popular star in China, despite retiring over seven years ago. The former England international was top of the charts on Douyin, and finished second overall behind Ronaldo, and ahead of Neymar in third. Rather surprisingly, Manchester United’s Anthony Martial finished in fourth place, one spot ahead of six-time Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi. While Messi finished only in fifth, Barcelona remained the most popular club in China for the second successive year, having dominated on Douyin. This was in spite of all the troubles surrounding the club in 2020, from Messi’s transfer request, to financial difficulty, to their failure to lift any silverware. Real Madrid and Chelsea came in second and third respectively, ensuring that last year’s top three remained unchanged. The English Premier League once again proved to be the most popular league, having twice the engagement on Douyin than second-placed La Liga. Premier League CEO Richard Masters commented on the award, saying (via South China Morning Post): “Football fans in China have shown their loyal and passionate support for Premier League clubs for many years, so we are proud to have won the Red Card award again.”

Former Man Utd target in Barcelona’s crosshairs, but might be too expensive

null
sportslens.com
Barcelona are being linked with a move for Borussia Dortmund striker Erling Braut Haaland, as reported by Spanish publication Sport. The Norwegian burst onto the scene last season, scoring 28 goals in 22 games for RB Salzburg. This form earned him a January transfer to Borussia Dortmund, where he has continued to find the net, bagging 35 goals in 34 appearances in all competitions for BVB. Naturally, this has attracted attention from all over Europe, with some of the world’s biggest clubs looking to secure the 20-year-old’s services. Manchester United were heavily linked with the Leeds-born forward prior to his move to the Bundesliga. Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had previously worked with the player at Molde. Barcelona are another club who are rumoured to be eyeing up Haaland, alongside the likes of Manchester City and Paris Saint-Germain. Sport have once again linked the Catalan giants to the Norway international, claiming that agent Mino Raiola wants his client to move to the Camp Nou. La Blaugrana have had issues up front this season. Luis Suarez departed in the summer on a free transfer to Atletico Madrid and was not replaced, leaving Martin Braithwaite as the club’s only natural striker. While the Dane is competent enough to be a back-up option, he is hardly on the level of other world-class forwards seen at the Camp Nou over the years. Consequently, a swoop for Haaland would make a lot of sense from a sporting point of view. However, there will be concerns over whether the club can afford to sign the striker. Sport reports that it would take a fee of €75 million to prise Haaland away from the Signal Iduna Park. Barcelona, having been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic, may not be able to stump up this kind of money in one go. Furthermore, given the transfer fees flying around in recent years, the reported €75m figure seems incredibly low for a player of Haaland’s pedigree.

Report: West Ham United want Watford striker Ismaila Sarr this month
null
null
sportslens.com
According to The Sun, West Ham United want to sign Watford striker Ismaila Sarr before the end of this month and are ready to part with £30 million for his signature. Manager David Moyes needs attacking reinforcements after Ivory Coast international striker Sebastian Haller left for Ajax on Friday, and the Senegalese has been identified as one of his potential replacements. Sarr scored five goals and assisted four others in 28 Premier League games for Watford last term, but they weren’t enough to stop his side from going down. The 22-year-old was linked with Liverpool and Manchester United during the summer transfer window, and Crystal Palace also saw a £25 million bid plus extras rejected for him on the last day of the window. West Ham are now looking to test Watford’s resolve with an improved offer, but it remains to be seen whether that will be enough to tempt the Hornets into parting ways with one of their best players mid-way through the campaign. Sarr has scored four goals and assisted twice in 18 Championship games as the Vicarage Road outfit look to seal an immediate return back to the English top-flight, and letting go of him could hurt their promotion chances. Michail Antonio is West Ham’s only out and out striker following Haller’s exit, and landing the versatile Watford star could help give their campaign a massive boost as they look to break into the top-six. The Senegal international proved his worth in the Premier League last term, ending Liverpool’s unbeaten run by bagging a brace in Watford’s famous 3-0 victory over the Reds last February. Sarr’s ability to play across the forward line would come in handy at a place like West Ham without a doubt, but whether he will be keen to join a side that have constantly battled relegation in recent seasons remains to be seen.

'No chance he will leave Dortmund this summer’: Chelsea told to forget about signing Haaland

However, as highlighted by their refusal to sanction a move for Jadon Sancho last summer, Dortmund can be difficult to negotiate with.

Report: Manchester United offered the chance to sign AS Roma striker Eden Dzeko

sportslens.com
According to Italian newspapers Gazzetta dello Sport and Corriere dello Sport (via Express), Manchester United have been offered the chance to sign AS Roma striker Edin Dzeko before the end of the January transfer window. The Bosnia and Herzegovina international is expected to leave the Serie A outfit this month after falling out with manager Paulo Fonseca and training separately from the rest of the squad as a result. His agent has offered him to Juventus and a couple of Premier League sides, including Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United, and Wolverhampton Wanderers, but he is not keen to join a side not playing in Europe and not challenging for silverware. Sportslens View The 34-year-old could be keen to return to England after a successful stint with Man City that produced 50 league goals in 130 appearances and two Premier League titles, and with 114 goals in 242 games for Roma since joining them in the summer of 2015, many clubs would love to recruit his services given his proven quality in front of goal. While Dzeko would no doubt be a good addition to manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s attack at Old Trafford despite his age, the Red Devils do not need his services at the moment. Veteran Uruguayan Edinson Cavani has been an inspired signing since joining Man Utd in the summer as a free agent from Paris Saint-Germain, bagging five goals and two assists in 19 appearances across all competitions. Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwood and Anthony Martial can also play through the middle, and there is no need to bring in someone in the twilight of his career as a another striking option. Given their recent explosive form in the Premier League, United do not need to strengthen any area this month, and they can wait till summer before thinking of making any additions.

Bundesliga Rückrunde Preview: An in-depth look at the second half of the season
null
null
sportslens.com
After a curtailed winter break, the Bundesliga is back. The story of the season so far has been one of fairy-tale overachievement for some, spectacular underachievement for others, teams struggling to score, scoring at will and drama on and off the pitch. The Rückrunde is set to be no different. Here’s a preview to whet the appetite. The title race: new challengers? Despite Bayern Munich going into the Christmas break top of the Bundesliga table by two points and looking to win their ninth consecutive Meisterschale, this year could very well see other clubs knock them off the top spot. The Rekordmeister have certainly not been fully firing this term when you look at last season’s treble-winning campaign. Worries over Bayern’s pre-season squad depth have only intensified throughout the season, with key players picking up injuries, most notably, Joshua Kimmich. With a congested fixture list, Hansi Flick’s team has looked unconvincing at times, suffering from an inability to start well, remarkably conceding first in their last seven Bundesliga games. Teams will be quietly confident of taking points off them. Nonetheless, Bayern will find hope in the fact that Kimmich, responsible for bringing tempo and tenacity to the side, should be fit once more for the restart. Winner of FIFA’s recent ‘The Best’ award and the top goalscorer in Europe in 2020, Robert Lewandowski has continued his exceptional form (17 goals from 13 games) and will, once again, be pivotal to Bayern defending their crown. There is still hope for a nail-biting title race. For me, the team most likely to challenge Bayern right up until the end is Julian Nagelsmann’s RB Leipzig. Only losing once so far this season, Die Roten Bullen have been able to share their goals around to compensate for the loss of Timo Werner in the summer (12 different goal-scorers in the league) and have been defensively sound, with much-sought-after Dayot Upemecano showing his colours as an elite central defender for years to come. The recent €25 million addition of Dominik Szoboszlai from RB Salzburg could be exactly what Leipzig need to finally steal Bayern’s crown. It is also hard to look past Bayer Leverkusen, who largely thanks to their much-improved defensive unit, as well as a young and prolific strike force, find themselves sitting second in the table going into the break. If they are to sustain a title challenge, they will need to show a winning mentality and consistency which has been missing all too often in Leverkusen sides of the past. Expect the title race to be a genuinely close one, but with their two closest challengers lacking experience of competing at the highest level, I imagine Bayern’s quality and prowess to win out in the end. The race for Europe: hot competition? As in most Bundesliga seasons, it is the competition for Champions League and Europa League berths that is most exciting. The milieu of over-performing and under-performing teams around this part of the table guarantees the race will be ferociously fought and, like the title race, go right to the very end. In truth, I expect Dortmund to mount a reasonable enough comeback in the second half of the season to warrant a European spot, but not enough to put them back in title contention. Dortmund’s problems run deeper than those pinned on now-departed Lucien Favre and interim boss Edin Terzic has his work cut out if he is to correct them. His job will be made easier, no doubt, by the return of Golden Boy Erling Haaland, without whom BVB have lacked a killer instinct, as well as a thorough understanding between the offensive players. They might prove me wrong. But the poor form of countless key players – Jadon Sancho, Julian Brandt, Marco Reus – that has plagued them so far this season will have to change if the Schwarzgelben are to push further. But make no mistake, securing Champions League football is imperative for Dortmund. For the first of the two Europa League places, VfL Wolfsburg is a solid choice. Recording only one loss so far this year – to the imperious Bayern – Wolfsburg have built on their reputation as a defensively solid outfit by adding a few more goals to their game, centred around Dutchman Wout Weghorst, who has chipped in with nine goals. Despite a rather sluggish start to the campaign – mostly like due to having to get out of a tough European group with Inter Milan, Real Madrid and Shakhtar Donetsk – I expect Marco Rose’s Borussia Mönchengladbach to finish strongly. With no Champions League football to worry about until the end of February, a singular focus on the league should allow the Foles’ promising young group, including the likes of Luca Waldschmidt, Florian Neuhaus and Breel Embolo, to beautifully complement an established group of more experienced talent, led by captain Lars Stindl. The Foles will hope that speculation on Rose’s potential departure to Dortmund will not affect their form; playing four of the current top five teams in January will certainly be a test of their character. Mid-table: who will break away? With only seven points currently separating VfB Stuttgart in seventh and Arminia Bielefeld, who sit in the relegation play-off spot, the middle of the table is highly congested. Expect this to change. As a result of the shorter Hinrunde, Bundesliga teams have only played 13 of their 36 matches, meaning the post-Christmas period, will be crucial for their final standing. At the top of this pile, expect to see the likes of Stuttgart, 1. Union Berlin and Eintracht Frankfurt contesting the best-of-the-rest spots. All three share one key trait. They are very difficult to beat. Eintracht and Union have both lost only twice this season (Eintracht drawing a remarkable eight games already) and all of them have proven more than capable of competing with the ‘big teams. Both Union and Stuttgart have beaten Dortmund this season, for example. Of the three, it may be Die Eisern who are most likely to push for a European spot and currently find themselves sitting fifth, with talisman Max Kruse (6 goals, 5 assists in 11 games) to be back fit soon after the restart. However, don’t overlook promoted Stuttgart, who, under Matarazzo Pellegrino, have fashioned themselves into one of the most exciting and tactically astute Bundesliga sides so far, built around a highly attacking style of play. As for the chasing pack, I predict all of the teams outside of the relegation play-off and direct relegation places to keep their heads above water for the remainder of the season. It certainly won’t be pretty, but you can expect the likes of SC Freiburg, Hertha BSC, TSG Hoffenheim and FC Augsburg to secure their Bundesliga status for next season with a comfortable handful of games to go – perhaps not due to any outstanding performances of their own, rather a marked lack of quality beneath them. I’ve got Werder Bremen and 1. FC Köln to avoid the drop; both teams have experienced quite wretched form so far, but they have also found a way to at least pick up points (10 draws between the two sides) which cannot be said for the teams I have to go down. They will both be disappointed to barely improve on last season’s finish, but, at the end of the day, ought to be glad to stay in the league and will already be building towards a stronger performance in the next campaign. Relegation: already decided? Unfortunately, even at this stage of the season, it appears the fates of the Arminia Bielefeld, Mainz 05 and Schalke 04 may already be sealed. The latter two, especially, find themselves a considerable distance adrift and have shown little signs of springing into life any time soon. Tipped at the start of the season to ‘do a Paderborn’ and finish rock-bottom, many have been impressed with Bielefeld’s dogged approach, rewarded with three crucial victories (all against fellow relegation candidates) and they have lost five games by just a one-goal margin. They also cover the most distance of any other Bundesliga team bar one. Their style of play should see them fend off direct relegation and feasibly put together a good run, which would see them avoiding going straight back down, but the Bundesliga experience of the teams above them may prove pivotal. In recent years, Mainz have found a way to remain in the league, despite painfully underwhelming performances at times – this year, expect that to catch up with them. Their only hope of Klassenerhalt looks to lay almost exclusively in the hands of Jean-Philippe Mateta (7 goals this season), as seen in their solitary victory away to SC Freiburg, in which the Frenchman scored an inspired hat-trick. Losing to all teams nearest to the bottom – notwithstanding a draw with Schalke – Jan Siewert’s men have given themselves a mountain to climb if they want to stay up this year. Finally, we come to Schalke – what else is there to say? Winless in 28 league games, Schalke have been in nothing but freefall for almost all of 2020. Losing two vital ‘six-pointers’ against Freiburg and Bielefeld, Die Königblauen rounded off the year in typically disappointing fashion. Marred by scandal on and off the pitch, they have performed as if already resigned to the 2. Liga and look far off the pace needed for a respectable Bundesliga outfit. Despite coming painfully close against Mainz and Augsburg of late, it seems as if they really cannot catch a break. And, onto their fourth head coach since September of this year in Christian Gross, Schalke will be hoping for somewhat of a miracle – one, quite frankly, that looks unlikely. Death Taxes Schalke being bad 28 Bundesliga games without a win for #S04, and counting.#S04SCF pic.twitter.com/2CWBbTgUDx — DW Sports (@dw_sports) December 16, 2020 Predictions Title race ­ It will be a much closer-run affair than in recent memory, but I expect Bayern to edge it late. Winners: Bayern Munich. Race for Europe It’s all to play for here and it’ll be interesting to see if the likes of Union Berlin and VfL Stuttgart can keep up their remarkable Hinrunde form; and expect the bigger teams to go all-out for a big push to the end of the season. Champions League: RB Leipzig, Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund. Europa League: VfL Wolfsburg, Borussia Mönchengladbach. Mid-table As some teams to kick-on and some to flirt with relegation for much of the season, expect the congested mid-table pile up to change soon into the new year. Upper Mid-table: VfB Stuttgart, Eintracht Frankfurt, Union Berlin, TSG Hoffenheim. Lower Mid-table: SC Freiburg, FC Augsburg, Werder Bremen, 1. FC Köln. Relegation This could be decided early on, but I hope to be proved wrong. Relegation Play-off: Arminia Bielefeld. Automatic relegation: Mainz 05, Schalke 04.

Ainsley Maitland-Niles wants to leave Arsenal on loan to boost Euro 2020 hopes
null
null
sportslens.com
Arsenal midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles is prepared to push for a loan move this month to boost his chances of making the England squad for Euro 2020, The Mirror reports. The 23-year-old is a central midfielder by trade, but he has generally played for the Gunners in the full-back or wing-back positions. Maitland-Niles was the subject of interest from Wolverhampton Wanderers last summer, but the Gunners snubbed the approach to keep him. At the time, it appeared a superb decision made by the club, given Maitland-Niles played a key role in the club’s FA Cup winning run. Since then, he has been restricted to only 485 minutes of Premier League football and is now said to be eyeing a temporary move elsewhere. SportsLens view: Gunners boss Mikel Arteta has recently reverted to a traditional four-man defence from a back three and that has hampered the playing time of Maitland-Niles. Kieran Tierney and Hector Bellerin are the undisputed picks for the left and right-back positions respectively when fit and available. On top of this, Cedric Soares has jumped ahead of Maitland-Niles in the pecking order and has recently impressed from both positions. Maitland-Niles forced his way into Gareth Southgate’s Three Lions squad with his tireless and consistent displays and he needs game time to stake his claim for Euro 2020 selection. Wolves were in advanced negotiations to land him before the Gunners pulled the plug on the deal. They may revive their interest this month due to the player’s versatile qualities.

Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha is thought to be on Everton’s radar. According to Ekrem Konur, Arsenal and AC Milan are keen on the Premier League winger as well and Arsenal are now prepared to make an official bid for the player. Arsenal, AC Milan and Everton put Wilfried Zaha on their agenda. Following Everton and Milan, Arsenal are set to make an official offer to Crystal Palace.#Arsenal #ACMillan #Everton #CrystalPalace — Ekrem Konur (@Ekremkonur) January 2, 2021 There is no doubt that Everton could use some pace and flair in their attack and Wilfried Zaha would be an upgrade on the likes of Bernard. The 28-year-old winger has been heavily linked with a move away from Crystal Palace over the last couple of seasons but the Eagles have managed to hold on to him so far. Zaha has taken his game on to another level this season and he has eight goals and two assists in 15 Premier League games so far this season. The Crystal Palace star deserves to play for a bigger team and the chance to join the likes of Everton and Arsenal is likely to tempt him. It will be interesting to see if either of the two Premier League clubs can convince the Eagles to part with their prized asset anytime soon. Zaha is at the peak of his powers right now and he is well adjusted to the Premier League. He could make an instant impact if he joins a club like Everton or Arsenal. Both teams need to freshen up their attack and Wilfried Zaha would be an ideal fit for them. Furthermore, both teams like to play attacking football and that would suit the 28-year-old winger. A move away from Crystal Palace could help Wilfried Zaha improve further and take the next step in his career. The winger will be determined to prove himself at a big club after failing to establish himself as a key player at Manchester United in the past.

Barcelona are set to pay Lionel Messi no less than 39 million euros due to an agreement with him that dates back to his contract renewal in 2017.

Messi to inevitably charge Barcelona a scandalous amount of money

sportslens.com
Barcelona are set to pay Lionel Messi no less than 39 million Euros due to an agreement with him that dates back to 2017. Messi is expected to leave Barcelona at the end of this season. The Barcelona skipper’s contract renewal at the Camp Nou is supposedly paused, and he will decide at the end of the season. According to Diario GOL, sensational details have emerged about the player’s contractual situation. Barca must pay him a settlement amount of 39m Euros in July, which is set to worsen their financial leverage. The payment comes from a clause inserted in Messi’s contract, which was last renewed in 2017. The deal promised him a salary close to 100m Euros, along with two payments of 39m Euros as part of a loyalty bonus. Messi was already handed the first instalment last year, but the club now has to pay him another lump sum as he potentially leaves. Fortunately, Barca have the option to make deferred payments in eight semi-annual units until 2025, which is a good fallback considering the masses of debt they are in. SPORTSLENS VIEW: Josep Maria Bartomeu left Barca in tatters, and the payment owed to Messi was another of the former president’s worst moves. Thankfully, Barcelona are not obliged to pay Messi on a lump sum basis, but it still is an expenditure which otherwise could have helped them bring in a good signing. What’s worse is that Barca must pay Messi the said figure regardless of whether he leaves or not, which means a new contract offer cannot even be an option to get away from the payment. In hindsight, the Catalans should have let Messi leave last summer itself to avoid such gigantic complications.

Back in the title race? Opinion on Manchester City's victory, and their title chances
null

sportslens.com
Manchester City took a comprehensive victory over Crystal Palace yesterday to climb to second in the Premier League table and put themselves back in the hunt for the Premier League title. City controlled the game against an underwhelming Palace and were good value for their win last night. It could prove to be a pivotal weekend in their season given the draw at Anfield as they look to recapture the Premier League title. Pep Guardiola’s side looked back to their best against South London outfit Palace and put in an impressive display that will send a clear message to their title rivals. One player who particularly stood out for City last night was Yorkshire born centre back John Stones, who put in a mightily impressive display to keep up his excellent run of form. The former Everton defender has sometimes struggled at Manchester City, but finally seems to be finding his feet for the Citizens, and is proving himself to be a key player for Pep Guardiola. City, who lost out to Liverpool in the title race last season, had a lacklustre start to this campaign, but have in recent times sparked to life with yesterday’s result marking a fourth consecutive Premier League win for Pep Guardiola’s side. The astonishing run of form has seen City climb up to second in the league, only two points adrift from local rivals Manchester United, with a game in hand that could take them to the top of the pile. The Citizens now seem resurgent in their bid for another Premier League crown, and have revealed their credentials to all their rivals with their emphatic display yesterday. SL VIEW: Back in the fight After a below par start to the season for their high standards, Manchester City have in recent times found their groove, and look capable of bringing the Premier League title back to the Etihad Stadium. While they’ve struggled to defeat Roy Hogdson’s tenacious Crystal Palace in the past, they had no so much problems last night, and were worthy of the 3 points that they so desperately desired. A surprise change in form for centre back John Stones has to be the highlight in recent times for City, and with their morale and team spirit growing, it’s clear they are back in the race for the Premier League title.

Gary Neville defends Newcastle United head coach Steve Bruce

sportslens.com
Newcastle United suffered their ninth defeat of the 2020-21 Premier League campaign at Arsenal last night, succumbing to a 3-0 loss despite ending the first-half goalless. The Magpies are without a win in nine games across all competitions and are just three places and seven points above the relegation zone. While not many Newcastle fans would have expected victory against Arsenal, a lot of them aren’t happy with head coach Steve Bruce’s style of football and are still angry with the Carabao Cup defeat to Brentford and last week’s league loss at the hands of 20th-placed Sheffield United. The Blades’ first victory of the season came at Newcastle’s expense, and the boss’ decision not to attack against the rock-bottom side has left fans seething. The Toons were better in the opening 45 minutes against Arsenal, but the hosts eventually came out tops, and fans want Bruce sacked as they reckon relegation could be looming if he remains in charge. Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville doesn’t believe that the Newcastle boss is largely to blame for his side’s woes, though, and he has taken to Twitter to defend him: I would rather have Ritchie , Rondon and Perez over this lot. SB has the same points as Rafa in a season , more points at this stage than both Rafa seasons . He played the media better inc Carragher who was sharing helicopter trips back to Liverpool where he lived after games 😂 https://t.co/8GVvgwzOgE — Gary Neville (@GNev2) January 19, 2021 Of course and Rafa was paid £6m a year because of that . He’s a great manager but even he couldn’t give the Newcastle fans good football and any success. It was awful to watch . https://t.co/iQwaZ9G3PY — Gary Neville (@GNev2) January 19, 2021 No I like him and he was one of the few opposing managers in Spain when I was there that spoke to me . I just don’t get that 44 pts under Rafa is amazing and 44 pts under Steve Bruce is shocking . Newcastle fans have been let down but not by any manager . https://t.co/tq1seUB04G — Gary Neville (@GNev2) January 19, 2021 Bruce remains unpopular with Newcastle fans, and his brand of football isn’t helping matters. Club chairman and owner Mike Ashley has ignored calls to sack him and isn’t likely to listen to them right now except there is a huge relegation scare. Selling Newcastle remains the top priority to him, and appointing another head coach at the moment doesn’t appear to be on the cards.
