عن طريق الصدفة.. ليفربول يحدد أولى أهدافه الصيفية تحت قيادة سلوت

كشفت تقارير صحفية عن أولى اهتمامات نادي ليفربول في موسم الانتقالات الصيفي لهذا العام، تحت قيادة المدرب الجديد آرني سلوت.

كان سلوت قد تولى مسؤولية تدريب ليفربول، الأسبوع الماضي، خلفًا للألماني يورجن كلوب بعد انتهاء موسم 2023/24.

ووفقًا لما ذكرته صحيفة “ذا صن” الإنجليزية، نقلًا عن “توتو سبورت” الإيطالية، فإن ليفربول يستهدف التعاقد مع لاعب خط وسط أتالانتا، إيدرسون.

وأوضحت أن خطة ليفربول في البداية كانت تتمثل في ضم لاعب أتالانتا، تيون كوبمينيرز، ولكن الإدارة غيرت اتجاهها إلى زميله.

وأفادت أن كشافة ليفربول توجهت إلى إيطاليا لمتابعة تيون كوبمينيرز عن كثب، قبل ملاحظة أحد زملائه في الفريق وهو إيدرسون الذي نال إعجاب النادي الإنجليزي.

وانضم إيدرسون إلى أتالانتا قادمًا من ساليرنيتانا في يوليو 2022، وقد شارك لاعب خط الوسط الدفاعي في 89 مباراة في جميع المسابقات منذ ذلك الحين وساهم في الفوز بلقب الدوري الأوروبي هذا الموسم.

ويتبقى أمام إيدرسون ثلاث سنوات في عقده مع أتالانتا، وإذا اتخذ ليفربول خطوة لضمه، فقد يؤدي ذلك إلى إنهاء اهتمامهم بضم زميله تيون كوبمينيرز.

 

Vijay 'hurt' by Tamil Nadu snub

The opener was left out of the Tamil Nadu side after he supposedly – contrary to the coach’s words – failed to report for a Vijay Hazare Trophy match

India and Tamil Nadu opener M Vijay is confident of accomplishing his “dream” of winning the Ranji Trophy for his state before he quits the game. That said, he was “hurt” by the manner in which he was left out of the Tamil Nadu side after he “failed to report” for the Vijay Hazare Trophy match against Mumbai on February 8.After Vijay had apparently informed Tamil Nadu coach Hrishikesh Kanitkar of a “shoulder pain” on the morning of the match, the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association (TNCA) said that the state body, the selectors and the physio were unaware of his injury. He was subsequently replaced with young batsman Pradosh Ranjan Paul for the remaining matches in the tournament.While the TNCA was understood to be unhappy with Vijay’s “attitude” over a period of time, Kanitkar was the lone voice of support for Vijay, saying he had known about the opener’s injury. He acknowledged the possibility of a communication gap and also vouched for Vijay’s commitment towards Tamil Nadu.Vijay felt things “could have been handled better”. “I just feel sad for whatever that has happened. Things could have been handled better,” he told reporters in Chennai on Wednesday, after the conclusion of a TNCA first-division league match where he scored a hundred for his club side Jolly Rovers. “I’m set to talk with the TNCA officials soon and I feel things will be fine.”I felt let down that my commitment was questioned and I was hurt. I love playing for Tamil Nadu and take a lot of pride in representing the state. My dream is to win the Ranji Trophy for Tamil Nadu, and I’m confident it will happen.”Vijay played Tamil Nadu’s first two matches in the 50-overs Vijay Hazare Trophy, against Gujarat and Goa, and scored 11 and 51. His absence was a blow to an already beleaguered side, which had failed to qualify for the knockouts of the Ranji Trophy and finished fifth out of seven in the league phase of the Vijay Hazare Trophy. Vijay had no illusions about the fact that much work remained for Tamil Nadu, should they want silverware.”We have a long road ahead,” he said. “We need to sit and think about what went wrong and work on it. I am going to win the Ranji Trophy for Tamil Nadu for sure before I hang up my boots. I am clear on that part. It is about when that is going to happen. I want Tamil Nadu to do well for not just one year, but three to four years in a row.”Vijay himself had an underwhelming outing in his most recent international assignment against South Africa, where six innings fetched him 102 runs at an average of 17. He acknowledged that he did not spend enough time in the middle. “It all boils down to shot selection. At times, it tends to happen at that level,” he said. “Again, they had some good bowlers. They kept it in the good areas, and the wicket was also a bit difficult to negotiate. It was good learning, as a top-order batsman. I am just hoping to apply what I’ve learnt over there in the future.”

Man United: Rico Henry transfer update

Manchester United have now been provided with an update on their pursuit of Brentford left-back Rico Henry, which suggests they could be ready to make a move soon…

What's the latest Man United transfer news?

Although the transfer window has only just ended, Man United may be forced to enter the free agent market to sign a new winger, given that there is growing uncertainty over the futures of both Antony and Jadon Sancho.

Antony has been placed on leave until further notice, following allegations that he attacked three women, while Sancho has been involved in a public falling out with Erik ten Hag, meaning former Aston Villa man Anwar El Ghazi is now being considered for a transfer swoop.

There have also been reports that Nico Williams is of interest to United, but there is set to be stiff competition for the Athletic Bilbao winger's signature, as Barcelona, and Premier League rivals Liverpool are also named as potential suitors.

Not only is Ten Hag short on wide options, but the manager is also lacking bodies at left-back, with Luke Shaw set to miss the next three months due to injury, while Tyrell Malacia also remains sidelined.

Diogo Dalot played on his unfavoured side in the 3-2 victory against Nottingham Forest, before Man United completed a loan move for Tottenham Hotspur's Sergio Reguilon on deadline day, with the Spaniard joining on a deal running until the end of the season.

However, Reguilon may not have been the first choice option, as Football Insider report that an approach was made with Brentford over a potential deal for Henry, and United retain an interest in the defender.

In fact, the Red Devils are now ready to step up their pursuit of the Bees' left-back, but they may have to fend off interest from elsewhere, as other unnamed "top Premier League clubs" are also keen.

The 26-year-old is said to be on the fringes of the England squad, with the report revealing he is "definitely" in the plans of Gareth Southgate, and he could also be in line for a move to Old Trafford in the January transfer window.

How good is Rico Henry?

Brentford manager Thomas Frank has lauded the Englishman for the impact he makes in both a defensive and attacking sense, saying:

“Rico has seamlessly made the step up to the Premier League. Defensively he is fantastic, and you can see the way he defends one on one against some great attackers.

“He is also contributing up the field with the way he can arrive in the penalty area, as we have seen this season. There are bits to work on, but it is great that he will continue that development with us.”

The full-back bagged his first assist of the season against Tottenham Hotspur on the opening day, but there are some concerns over his defensive ability, ranking in just the 34th percentile for tackles, and the 46th percentile for interceptions per 90 over the past year.

However, Henry has been a key player for Brentford over the past two seasons, making 71 top-flight appearances, indicating he could be ready to make the step-up to Man United, and Ten Hag should continue to monitor his performances ahead of the January transfer window.

Akmal keeps Peshawar's campaign kicking

Peshawar dominated Karachi in a must-win game and completed a massive 44-run victory to open up the race for semi-final spots

The Report by Arun Venugopal15-Mar-2018
Scorecard and ball-by-ball detailsIn a nutshellKamran Akmal’s 51-ball 75 and Darren Sammy’s blinding assault in the latter half helped Peshawar Zalmi overwhelm Karachi Kings by 44 runs. More importantly for Peshawar, the win helped them remain in contention for the next round. After electing to bat first and racking up 181, Peshawar’s bowlers stifled Karachi, who were already weighed down by scoreboard pressure.It reflected in how Karachi approached their chase – Joe Denly and Colin Ingram played out five and eight balls respectively before departing for ducks even as the Powerplay score read 35 for 2. Babar Azam was the standout batsman with his silken drives and flicks, and notched up his third consecutive fifty, but while he finished with a 50-ball 66, the target was too steep for him to gun down on his own. Karachi’s scoring rate remained a cause for concern for the most part, and they were striking at less than six runs an over even at the end of 10 overs.There were brief spurts of rousing play, particularly when Shahid Afridi struck four sixes off four successive deliveries he faced. But, he perished for 26 off 8 balls when he holed out to long off off left-arm spinner Liam Dawson, who finished with 3 for 17 in his four overs. Azam struck a few sixes towards the end but was eventually dismissed in the 17th over as the closing stages of the match became a mere formality.Karachi’s struggles with the bat mirrored those of Peshawar’s at the start of their innings. They lost Mohammad Hafeez to Mohammad Amir in the second over, and despite Akmal’s brace of sixes, they could only crawl to 31 for 1 in the Powerplay. At the halfway mark, Peshawar managed to reach only 58 for 2, but Akmal, who was dropped on 32, managed to swing the momentum soon after with some audacious hitting. Akmal was backed up by Saad Nasim, who smashed 35 off 18 balls, and Sammy’s unbeaten 15-ball 36, as Peshawar ransacked 123 runs in the last 10 overs.Kamran Akmal lays into a cut shot•AFP

Where the match was wonIt would be fair to say that Karachi had things under control until the end of Peshawar’s 13th over where the score read 82 for 3. But Akmal, having completed his third fifty of the tournament, teed off with two successive sixes of the next over, bowled by Afridi, while Nasim wasn’t to be left behind as he collected a six off his own off the last ball. That 21-run over was followed by 14 runs in the next over before Usman Khan, who remained insulated from Akmal’s clear-the-leg-and-whack carnage and produced a spell of 4-0-11-3, concede only two runs in the 16th. The next over, bowled by Mohammad Irfan, though, was going to be mammoth – Sammy tonked three sixes and Nasim one as they amassed 28 runs. Nasim then smacked Amir for a hat-trick of fours in the next over, as Peshawar managed 64 runs in the last five.The men who won itYou would struggle to look beyond three men – Akmal, Nasim and Sammy. While Akmal and Nasim added 37 runs for the fourth wicket, Sammy and Nasim put on a 42-run partnership for the fifth. That each of the batsmen passed around the hitting baton among themselves ensured that there was no let up in scoring momentum.Where they standPeshawar’s victory takes them to eight points from nine matches, and they remain with a chance of making the playoffs. Despite the loss, Karachi hold on to third position with nine points.

A derrota no Choque-Rei foi a primeira do Palmeiras como mandante na temporada e, ao passar em branco no revés por 2 a 0, o Verdão encerrou uma sequência de 33 jogos seguidos balançando as redes no Allianz Parque.

A última vez que o Alviverde havia passado em branco no estádio tinha sido contra o mesmo adversário, no empate sem gols válido pela semifinal do Campeonato Paulista do ano passado. Na ocasião, o Palmeiras era comandado por Vanderlei Luxemburgo e foi eliminado, nos pênaltis.

Liverpool: Klopp could bin Mac Allister for Anfield’s amazing £40k-p/w talent

Liverpool have started the 2023/24 campaign as strongly as supporters could have hoped for, winning four successive matches in the Premier League after starting the term with a draw against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

It's a major sigh of relief for all affiliated with the Anfield side, after Jurgen Klopp suffered a terrible year as his side failed to qualify for the Champions League for the first time in seven seasons, utterly unrecognisable to the intense, high-octane system that has been a hallmark of his prosperous English outfit.

The Reds have completely reshaped their midfield after such sapped energy on show last season, and the early signs are certainly promising, but now Klopp will hope to nurture the outfit's cohesion and unity over the coming weeks and months, eyeing silver-laden success once again.

Alexis Mac Allister

Ryan Gravenberch

£34m

To kick off the summer spending, the Merseyside outfit completed the transfer of Brighton & Hove Albion's Alexis Mac Allister, and while he has enjoyed a solid, energetic start to life at Liverpool, it may do him some good to be placed on the bench this week.

How are Liverpool playing?

Liverpool are playing very well, all things considered. The draw against Chelsea to open the seasonal account highlighted the promise of this new-look outfit but underscored the defensive frailties that eradicated the club's optimism last term.

Klopp worked hard to purge the team of the woes of last year, and it would be ludicrous to think that the Reds would hit their zenith so soon after such drastic alteration, but the preliminary signs are promising, and the fact that Liverpool currently on a four-match winning streak is exciting when looking ahead.

All-conquering midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai has been immense since joining from RB Leipzig, hailed as "like a young Gerrard" by former England striker Tash Dowie.

Mohamed Salah is ever-imperious and has already posted two goals and four assists from just five matches; while last season's under-fire backline has only conceded four goals in the top-flight so far – bettered only by defending champions and pace-setters Manchester City.

How is Alexis Mac Allister playing?

Mac Allister, who rose to prominence as a centrepiece of a thriving Brighton team last season and won the 2022 World Cup with Argentina, played a starring role and was heralded for one “sumptuous” assist in Qatar by Gary Lineker.

exequiel-palacios-alexis-mac-allister-liverpool-transfer-premier-league

However, having been started against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday afternoon, the ace endured a torrid time and was substituted early by Klopp, who claimed simply that "he was done".

Now this is no detriment to his ability; Mac Allister had just finished a match with his nation against Bolivia less than four days earlier and was playing at an incredibly high altitude.

Partner that with an arduous journey back to Liverpool halfway across the globe, and it's no wonder he was out of sorts at Molineux.

The 24-year-old has started all five of Liverpool's Premier League outings this season (despite receiving a red card against Bournemouth, which was overturned after a review), and completed 86% of his passes from central midfield, making 2.6 tackles and 5.4 ball recoveries per game, succeeding with 63% of his dribbles and winning 58% of his duels, as per Sofascore.

Partner that with two outings for Argentina during the international break, and it might be wise to drop the £150k-per-week phenom for the time being, especially with the opening match of Liverpool's Europa League campaign now forthcoming.

While Mac Allister is a talented midfielder, there might just be an apt replacement waiting in the wings in the form of Harvey Elliott, who has impressed this term despite having yet to receive a starting berth.

Why should Harvey Elliott start for Liverpool?

Elliott, who joined Liverpool from Fulham as a 16-year-old, played an important role last year and made 46 appearances across all competitions, scoring six goals and receiving praise for his "superb" displays by Liverpool writer Matt Addison.

This year, he has been lauded by pundit Jamie Carragher for his “excellent” impact off the bench against Wolves, and having made cameos across each outing so far, his displays now warrant a maiden seasonal start.

As per Sofascore, the £40k-per-week gem has completed 86% of his passes and won 60% of his duels, and while it's early days, the latter metric alludes to an improvement in physicality and application from last term, where he won just 45% and was criticised for being "outmuscled" by writer Leanne Prescott.

Additionally, the 20-year-old ranks among the top 14% of midfielders across Europe's top five leagues over the past year for shot-creating actions, the top 13% for progressive passes, the top 5% for progressive carries and the top 6% for blocks per 90, as per FBref.

Mac Allister, comparatively, ranks among the top 14% for shot-creating actions, the top 16% for progressive carries and the top 12% for successful take-ons per 90 – while Elliott is by no means the refined, all-embracing ace Mac Allister is yet, he definitely boasts qualities to fill in for his South American counterpart.

harvey-elliott-liverpool-opinion-brentford-premier-league

With a trip to Austria to face LASK awaiting on Thursday night, it seems pretty likely that Elliott will be among the starters, but should he impress at the Raiffeisen Arena, Klopp could start to utilise his talents from the opening whistle in the Premier League with greater regularity.

There is no doubt that Liverpool have secured the signature of a first-class midfielder in Mac Allister, but he has been steady if unspectacular thus far for Klopp's side, and while he is easily one of the club's best midfielders, it might be time to shake things up.

Without question, he will and should start the lion's share of Liverpool's matches this season, but Elliott has impressed off the bench on numerous occasions now and will be anxious to demonstrate his skills more often after breaking through last term.

The one-time Fulham youngster offers something a bit different, and Klopp would now be wise to allow him to take to the stage.

تقارير تكشف قيمة عرض باريس سان جيرمان لضم جوليان ألفاريز من مانشستر سيتي

وأشارت شبكة “CaughtOffside” إلى أن باريس سان جيرمان يلاحق لاعب مانشستر سيتي جوليان ألفاريز ويريد التوقيع معه في الميركاتو الصيفي القادم.

وتابعت الشبكة الإخبارية أن مسئولي نادي العاصمة الفرنسية قد التقوا بممثلي جوليان ألفاريز، حيث تطمح إدارة النادي الفرنسي في جعل الدولي الأرجنتيني أولوية في التوقيع خلال فترة الانتقالات القادمة.

ويخطط بطل الدوري الفرنسي لتقديم عقد طويل الأمد لـ ألفاريز حتى عام 2029، لكنهم سيجدون صعوبة في إقناع مانشستر سيتي بسبب تمسك بيب جوارديولا ببقاء اللاعب.

ووفقاً لما جاء في الصحف الفرنسية فإن نادي باريس سان جيرمان مستعد لتقديم عرض أكثر من 85 مليون يورو من أجل الحصول على خدمات ألفاريز.

وانضم ألفاريز إلى نادي مانشستر سيتي قادماً من فريق ريفربليت الأرجنتيني في صيف 2023، وسينتهي عقده مع ناديه الحالي في موسم 2028.

وشارك الدولي الأرجنتيني هذا العام في 54 مباراة مع مانشستر سيتي في جميع المسابقات، حيث أحرز 19 هدفاً وقام بصناعة 13 هدفاً طوال الموسم.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: Head-to-head record, key stats & more

Sheffield United resume their Premier League return by hosting Champions League side Newcastle United at Bramall Lane on Sunday afternoon. And Football FanCast has everything you need to know about the fixture as the two teams prepare to meet in the Premier League.

Both sides now have five games under their belt in the 2023/24 Premier League campaign as the table begins to take some shape after a hectic opening month of the new season.

And both clubs will feel it has not been the easiest of starts to the league campaign with Sheffield United having only racked up a single point thus far and Newcastle tallying six points to their name.

This Sunday's meeting in South Yorkshire will provide both clubs an opportunity to truly get their season up and running, but how does the history book reflect on this fixture from years gone by?

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What's their head-to-head record?

Miguel Almiron – Newcastle united vs Sheffield United

Meetings between these two clubs go all the way back to the 1893/94 campaign when they met in the FA Cup. And it was the Toon who came out on top in the fixture with a 2-0 win to see them through to the second round.

Over the years, these two sides have met 127 times across all competitions with the large majority (96) of those games coming in the English top flight.

Across the 127 meetings, the points have been shared out fairly evenly over their history, but it is the Blades who have edged it with 50 wins to Newcastle's 48. For those counting, that leaves 29 draws between these two sides.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What's their record at Sheffield United?

Home advantage is a term which is passed about in football and in the case of Sheffield United, in this fixture, it certainly seems to be real.

Indeed, playing at Bramall Lane, the Blades have held a real advantage against the Tyneside club having won 37 of their 62 clashes.

The Blades have also been able to hold Newcastle to a draw on 15 occasions which means the Magpies have only been able to leave South Yorkshire with a victory in 10 of their 62 visits.

However, the same can also be said for the Magpies when they are playing against the Blades on home soil.

It is a very similar story on Tyneside with Newcastle holding the advantage having also won 37 times against the Blades.

The pair have faced it off 64 times at St. James' Park across all competitions, and the Blades have only been able to make the journey back down to South Yorkshire on 13 occasions – leaving 14 draws between them on Tyneside.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What's their Premier League record?

Sheffield-united-premier-league

The majority of the meetings between these two sides have come in the English top flight with 96 games in the history books.

Across those 96 games, there has not been a whole lot to separate these two sides with the Blades holding a narrow advantage with three more victories (38) than Newcastle over the years (35).

There have also been 23 draws between these two sides with the first meeting in the top flight coming all the way back in the 1898/99 campaign which saw the two share the points in a 2-2 draw.

However, it is worth mentioning there have only been eight meetings between the two in the Premier League – as we know it today. Indeed, since 1992, these sides have met eight times in which the Toon have edged with five wins to Sheffield United's three – with no draws being held.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: Which team has the most goals?

Newcastle-united-premier-league-Sheffield-united

There has not been much between these two sides over their history and that can be seen through the number of goals scored by each side in their meetings.

Sheffield United have edged the results with slightly more wins than the Toon in this fixture, however, it is the Magpies who have scored the most goals over the years.

Indeed, the Blades have been able to find the back of the net 177 times over the course of the 127 games played out between the two sides. But, it is Newcastle who have scored the most with a slightly higher return with 188 goals.

This means, in total, there have been 365 goals scored by these sides in their 127 meetings which is a return of just under three goals per game.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What happened in last season's fixtures?Given the Blades earned promotion back to the Premier League last season, there was no meeting between the two sides.

However, you do not have to go too far back to find their last clashes with the pair meeting back in the 2020/21 Premier League campaign. The last time these two sides battled it out, Newcastle were able to seal the points in a narrow 1-0 victory at St. James' Park.

Indeed, it was Joe Willock's goal which proved the difference between the two sides. But in their earlier meeting at Bramall Lane, it was the Blades who were able to secure the points – also in a 1-0 victory – through a Billy Sharp penalty in the final 20 minutes of the game.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What is Callum Wilson's record?

Callum-Wilson-Bournemouth-premier-league

Callum Wilson has played against the Blades five times over his career; in which the 31-year-old has only been on the winning side on one occasion.

However, it is worth mentioning only one of those five games has come whilst wearing the black and white shirt of Newcastle. Indeed, he missed one of their meetings in the 2020/21 campaign through injury and played his other four games during his time at Bournemouth and Coventry City.

During those games for Coventry and for the Cherries, Wilson has been able to find the back of the net, but his only appearance for the Magpies ended in defeat.

The Englishman has made an impressive start to the campaign with three goals in his first five games, however, he will be hoping to find himself on the winning side for what would be just the second time against the Blades.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What is Sheffield United's biggest win?

Sheffield-united-Newcastle-premier-league

The Blades hold the most victories out of the two sides in this fixture and over the course of their history, they have also notched up some impressive wins.

Indeed, the Blades have won on multiple occasions by a four-goal margin with a 5-1 victory back in the 1935/36 campaign one of their most notable results. Alongside that is a 6-2 victory over the Toon coming in the 1954/55 campaign.

However, their 5-0 win over Newcastle in the 1913/14 FA Cup was the Blades' biggest win with a five-goal margin as they advanced through to the second round of the game's oldest cup competition.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What is Newcastle's biggest win?

Allan-saint-maximin-premier-league-Newcastle-united

Similarly to the Blades, the Magpies have also enjoyed some considerable victories in this fixture. It was only three years ago since the Magpies enjoyed an emphatic 3-0 win over Shefffield United in the Premier League with goals from Allan Saint-Maximin, Matt Ritchie and Joelinton sealing the points.

But this was not their biggest win. In fact, the Magpies have won by significant margins on multiple occasions, however, their biggest win against the Blades came all the way back in the 1937/38 campaign when both sides were playing the Second Division. The Toon ran out 6-0 victors in front of their own fans.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: What are the recent results?

Allan-saint-maximin-Newcastle-Sheffield-united

As a result of the Blades playing a lot of their recent football in the Championship, the last five league meetings between these sides is spread out over the last 16 years.

Indeed, four of the last five meetings have come in the last four years with the Blades playing in the Premier League over the 2019/20 and 2020/21 campaigns.

In that time, the Toon were able to seal the points in three of the four meetings in which the Blades were not even able to find the back of the net. However, there has been one victory for Sheffield United in their recent meetings and you only have to go back to 2020 for that when they were able to take the points in a narrow 1-0 victory at Bramall Lane.

Sheffield United vs Newcastle: When is it?

The Magpies will make the journey to South Yorkshire on Sunday for the late kick-off (16:30 BST) of the weekend. Newcastle come into the game having played on Tuesday evening in their return to the Champions League away to AC Milan.

Paul Heckingbottom's men may have a bitter taste still left in their mouths after three points were snatched away from them in the dying minutes of injury time on the weekend following two late goals from Tottenham Hotspur.

It is a game which both sides will surely be eyeing up as a huge opportunity to get three points on the board and truly kickstart their campaign after turbulent starts.
